Homestay provides English language students with the opportunity to speak English outside the classroom and the experience of being part of a British home.
What to Expect
The host will provide accommodation and meals. Rooms will be cleaned and bedcovers changed at least once a week. You will be given the house key and the host is there to offer help and advice as well as to take an interest in your physical and mental health.
Accommodation Zones
Homestays are located in London mainly in Zones 2, 3 and 4 of the transport system. Most hosts do not live in the town centre as much of central London is commercial and not residential. Zone 3 and 4 often offer larger accommodation in a less-crowded area. It is very convenient to travel in London by underground.
Meal Plans Available
☆ Continental Breakfast
☆ Breakfast and Dinner
☆ Breakfast, Packed Lunch and Dinner
It’s important to note that few English families still provide a traditional cooked breakfast. Your accommodation includes Continental Breakfast which normally consists of fruit juice, cereal, bread and tea or coffee. Cheese, fruit and cold meat are not normally part of a Continental Breakfast in England. Dinners usually consist of meat or fish with vegetables followed by dessert, fruit and coffee.
Friends
If you wish to invite a friend over to visit, you must first ask your host’s permission. You have no right to entertain friends in a family home as some families feel it is an invasion of their privacy.
Self-Catering Accommodation in Private Homes
Accommodation on a room-only basis includes shared kitchen and bathroom facilities and often a main living room. This kind of accommodation offers an independent lifestyle and is more suitable for the long-stay student. However, it does not provide the same family atmosphere as an ordinary homestay and may not benefit those who need to practice English at home quite as much.
【小题1】The passage is probably written for ____________.
A.hosts willing to receive foreign students |
B.foreigners hoping to build British culture |
C.travelers planning to visit families in London |
D.English learners applying to visit families in London |

阅读下面短文,然后从下列各题所给的A、 B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
We often talk about ourselves as if we have permanent genetic defects (缺陷) that can never be changed. “I’m impatient.” “I’m always behind.” “I always put things 36 !” You’ve surely heard them. Maybe you’ve used them to describe 37 .
These comments may come from stories about us that have been 38 for years—often from 39 childhood. These stories may have no 40 in fact. But they can set low expectations for us. As a child, my mother said to me, “Marshall, you have no mechanical (操作机械的) skills, and you will never have any mechanical skills for the rest of your life.” How did these expectations 41 my development? I was never 42 to work on cars or be around 43 . When I was 18, I took the US Army’s Mechanical Aptitude Test. My scores were in the bottom for the entire nation!
Six years later, 44 , I was at California University, working on my doctor’s degree. One of my professors, Dr. Bob Tannbaum, asked me to write down things I did well and things I couldn’t do. On the positive side, I 45 down, “research, writing, analysis, and speaking.” On the 46 side, I wrote, “I have no mechanical skills.”
Bob asked me how I knew I had no mechanical skills. I explained my life 47 and told him about my 48 performance on the Army test. Bob then asked, “ 49 is it that you can solve 50 mathematical problems, but you can’t solve simple mechanical problems?”
Suddenly I realized that I didn’t 51 from some sort of genetic defect. I was just living out expectations that I had chosen to 52 . At that point, it wasn’t just my family and friends who had been 53 my belief that I was mechanically hopeless. And it wasn’t just the Army test, either. I was the one who kept telling myself, “You can’t do this!” I realized that as long as I kept saying that, it was going to remain true. 54 , if we don’t treat ourselves as if we have incurable genetic defects, we can do well in almost 55 we choose.

Always Changing
Mark is leaving, and I’m feeling kind of sad.
You probably don’t know Mark, but you might be lucky enough 36 someone just like him. He’s been the heart and soul of the office for a couple of years combining 37 professional skills with a sweet and gentle nature.
And now he’s moving on to an exciting new professional 38 . It sounds like it could be the chance of a lifetime, and we’re 39 for him. But that doesn’t make it any easier to say goodbye to him.
Life has a way of throwing these curve(曲线)balls 40 us. Just when we start to get comfortable with a person, a place or a situation, something comes along to 41 the recipe.
Our ability to cope with change 42 to a great degree, our peace, happiness and contentment in life.
But how do we do that? A friend of mine is fond of reminding us that“survivability depends upon 43 .”And then there’s Chris the California surf-rat, who once told me that the answer to life’s problems can be 44 in four words:“Go with the flow.”
I’m not exactly sure , but I think Chris was saying that life is a series of 45 —both good and bad . No matter how excellent your skill , there will always be life-influencing factors over which you have no 46 . The truly successful person expects the unexpected, and is prepared to 47 adjustments should the need arise-as it almost 48 does.
That doesn't mean you don't keep trying to make all your 49 come true.It just means that when things come up that aren't 50 in your plan,you work around them—and then you move on。
“Change,indeed,is painful, 51 ever needful,”said philosopher Thomas Carlyle.“And if memory has its force and worth,so also has 52 .”
we're going to miss Mark. But rather than stay on the 53 of our parting,we'll focus on our hopes for a brighter future-for him,and for us.And then we'll go out and 54
everything we can to make that future happen. 55 our plans change--again.
