【题目】 If you want to study in a foreign country, you have to think about where to live. Because I'm still too young to rent a flat by myself. I am living with a homestay family in Canada and I feel like I'm part of the family.

I had a homestay in 2013 for the first time. During that time, I stayed in Ajax, a town in Canada for a week with a homestay family. Carlton lives with his nephew and hisniece-in-law(侄子和侄媳妇).Carlton drove me to a school to learn about Canadian culture every morning, and he picked me up in the afternoons. Our free time was in the evening. The meals he made for me were delicious and we usually watched a movie after dinner. I couldn’t forget the life there although I didn't live there for a long time.

I'm now living with a Hungarian(匈牙利)family with another Chinese boy. There are two family members — Mrs.Perger and her son, Robert. I've already lived here for nine months. Once, my roommate went running and didn't come back for a long time. Mrs. Perger called him, but he didn't answer the phone. She began to worry about him and cry. Fortunately, he was fine and got back home later. I was deeply moved.

However, living with a homestay family also has some problems. when you live with a foreign family, you live a lifestyle different from your own family’s. It may take you a long time to get used to (习惯于)it.

【题目】 After a full week of working or studying, you must be too tired to get up early on Saturday morning. When you finally get up, you have already missed breakfast, but lunch is still a few hours away. So what do you do?

In Melbourne, brunch culture is also popular. Last week, I decided to try it with my friend. We visited a restaurant that is famous for its flower theme(主题) . There was a wall full of different kinds of fresh and colourful flowers.The food and drinks also had this theme. They used rose petals (玫瑰花瓣)to make a pink rose latte more beautiful. This kind of drink is as sweet as it looked . For the main course(主菜) I chose the soft shell crab (软壳螃蟹).They put the crab in a bread bowl with some fried crab claws(蟹爪) on top.

The brunch tasted great. I was full after having such a big meal, but I still want to have another one.
