    One day an American called Simon went to London to visit his friend,Rick.Rick told him that his flat was on the first floor.When he arrived,Simon went straight to the first floor of the building.But he was told that there was no Rick on that floor.Do you know why?

    In fact.the British call the first floor of a building the ground floor.The floor above the ground floor is the first floor,which Americans would call the second floor.

    The story shows that there are a few culture differences between Britain and America,though the British and Americans both speak English.

    The British usually hide their feelings.They seldom start a conversation with strangers.For example, on the train the British often spend their time reading newspapers or books.But Americans are quite different.They’re more active and easier to talk with.

    The British and Americans may use different terms for many things.The British usually use football,eraser and mail while Americans prefer to use soccer,rubber and post.

  “Homestay is a form of study abroad program.It allows the visitor to rent a room from a local(当地的)family to better understand the local lifestyle.It also helps to improve the visitor's language ability,” said a teacher during a school meeting last term.” Students who wish to learn more about foreign cultures or to get foreign experience should join this kind of holiday.I am sure you won't be disappointed(失望的).”

  After this special meeting, I always thought about this kind of holiday.Last month, I had a chance at last to go on such a holiday with some of my schoolmates and we went to London, a place where I had wanted to go since years ago.

  As we were still young, we had a group leader who planned things for us and looked after us.After we got to London, we went to stay with different families.I was lucky that my host family(寄宿家庭)was a white couple who had a daughter about my age.They treated me as a daughter of their family during my stay there.They were interested in me and I learnt a lot of things from them, too.

  The holiday was filled with activities every day.After breakfast, a local teacher would come to take us in his car.Then we would have classes or go on a sight-seeing trip to different places of interest like the Big Ben, the London Bridge, and the Buckingham Palace.We would go back to our own homes after the activities.

  The holiday was a valuable experience for me.I enjoyed every minute of it.Yet, time really flew fast.Three weeks later, we had to leave “home” for Hong Kong.
