Cool，amazing，unforgettable…something money can't buy!

Our wonderful hosts are not paid．They love giving international students very special memories of the UK to take home with them．

Students pay their own travel costs．And there is an application fee（申请费） which helps to pay for running the HOST program．But your university may pay all or part of the application fee for you．

The eggplant is a member of the potato family. Eggplant varieties differ in s【1】, shape, color, growth habit and even maturation（成熟）time. This strangely named vegetable used to come in only one color – white. It grows in a manner much like tomatoes, hanging from the vine（藤）of a plant that grows several feet in height. It can be steamed, fried, and baked. It can be eaten by l【2】 or combined with meats and other vegetables, Eggplant was first grown in India in the 5th century BC. Its propularity soon spread to China. Finally, during the Middle Ages the vegetable made its way to Europe. At that time, eggplant was not the shiny purple vegetable most people know today. Instead, it’s like a white egg. Due to this egg-like appearance, eggplant got its name. In its early days, the vegetable was so bitter（苦的）that people often called it a“mad apple.”This nickname started because people believed its bitterness was bad for one’s health. People a【3】 thought eggplant could cause madness and cancer. In fact eggplant is so healthy that it may prevent cancer. In addition, the brain and the heart benefit from this super vegetable. Since it’s high in fibre（纤维素），eggplant can i【4】 digestion（消化）. Italy, Turkey, Egypt, China and Japan are the leading growers of eggplant in the world today. Depending on its location, eggplant may be purple, green, orange or yellow, white. And it can be as s【5】 as a tomato or as large as a cucumber. Dish varieties range from simple to complex, with all of them being delicious.

Today, t【6】 of people gather in Loomis, Calif, for the annual Loomis Eggplant Festival. The main activity at the festival is eating delicious eggplant dishes. There is plenty more to do and see, though. Recipe（食谱）contests, arts and crafts, performers, races and children’s activities all“egg - cite”（excite）festival – goers （参加节目活动者）. Most people at the festival would agree --- eggplant is an“egg-cellent”（excellent）vegetable.

Eggplants are now available in markets t【7】 the year, but they are their best from August to October when they are in season.

Have you ever eaten at a restaurant that seizes Western food？If so，do you remember what the menu looked like？Western restaurant menus are quite different from Chinese restaurant menus．But how are they different？

Most Western restaurant menus do not have as many p 【1】as Chinese ones do．In some fancy Western restaurants，the menus might not have any pictures at all．

But most Western menus show a list of ingredients for each dish．

If you order a burger，the menu might tell you that the burger has cheese，ketchup and mustard（芥末）．The menu can also tell you how the food is cooked﹣﹣﹣for example， w【2】it is fried or steamed．

Western restaurants use many different methods to design their menus and make them more a【3】．In fact，there is a whole industry called "menu engineering"，according to theBBC．Menu engineers are experts at designing menus．Their menus can i【4】sales and influence customers' thoughts．

A well﹣designed menu can encourage customers to eat certain dishes．It can e【5】make them believe that your restaurant's food is of higher quality，thought they might haven't eaten the food．

For example，using descriptive （描述性的）words s【6】"juicy "or" cheesy" can help dishes sell better．Instead of just writing "steak" in their menu，a restaurant might write "sizzling steak"．This makes the steak sound more delicious．

Also，it is k【7】 that people pay the most attention to items placed at the top of a page．

This is the best place for dishes that you want to promote．As you can see，menus are not just simple lists of food!
