English book Animal Farm (1945) tells a story about farm animals. They are fed up with (受够了) Mr Jones, the farmer. He treats them badly, so they decide to kick him off the farm and run the farm themselves.

One day an old pig called Old Major gathers the animals around him. He tells them that all animals should stand together. He says they should take over the farm. They say that all animals are equal.

After they get rid of (摆脱) Mr Jones, two pigs become the leaders of Animal Farm. One pig called Snowball is a great speaker. He has big ideas for Animal Farm. The other leader is a pig called Napoleon. Napoleon is a crafty (狡猾的) animal. He brings together supporters by offering them advantages.

Napoleon makes a war against Snowball and kicks him away from the farm. He turns Snowball into a big enemy. He says that Snowball is working with Farmer Jones and other farmers to do harm to Animal Farm.

But as it turns out it is Napoleon who is working with the enemies of the animals. He joins up with the old human enemies of the animals. But he tells the animals that he is working for them. At the same time the animals work hard. It seems that it is as bad to live under Napoleon as it was under Farmer Jones!

Why is the story so important?

Animal Farm is an excellent choice for learners of English because it’s very short. The language is also simple.

Like many famous stories Animal Farm is not just a book. It was played on the BBC radio in 1947. The big modern way of telling stories is in movies of course. Orwell’s book has become a film twice. Perhaps it won’t surprise you that the first one (1954) was a cartoon. In 1984 another film was made. This was a live-action (真人版的) film. The famous book has also been put on in the theater. In 1984 a play was made and it toured a number of British cities.

Most students， who are learning a foreign language, like to choose Homestay when they study abroad. Others also prefer homestay even if they go on a visit or a holiday in another country. Presently，homestay has become a form of accommodation(寄宿 ) which is very popular all around the world. If you want to

stay at a comfortable and home-like house and experience the life of local people，

you can book a homestay on the Internet before you go abroad. It is easy for you to pick out a host family that you want to live with from all over the world. So what is homestay? And what makes it so popular nowadays?

Homestay means living with a foreign family or "host family" as we stay abroad. It is usually called a home away home. There are three ways of doing it:

★Choose to learn English in a language school near your homestay where you

live ；

★Have your English classes in the house with a member of family who is a qualified (合格的) teacher；

★Don't have any classes at all when you visit a foreign country-a popular

choice if you want to be a tourist for example.

Even in the busy summer period the organization that provides the homestays will always try to place you with the most suitable(适合的) host family to meet your needs. With the help of the organizations, you don't worry about where you live， your interests， your language level, eating habits, medical care and anything else you may have during the homestay.

Even if you stay further out. you can expect your journey into the center not to Go beyond 30 minutes.

Not only does homestay accommodation represent(象征) value for money，it also gives you an excellent opportunity to practice the foreign language with your host family. This is a very important extra for students who like to speak as much language as possible. But if you plan to learn English. Why not have your English classes in your host family? There's no better way to learn languages than this because it makes learning and accommodation together as well as the cultural experience!
