2016年湖北襄阳市初中毕业生学业水平考试
The homestay(寄宿家庭) provides English language students with the good chance to speak English outside the classroom and the experience of being part of an American home.
What to Expect
The host will provide places to live and meals. Rooms will be cleaned every day. And the host is there to offer help and advice on your physical and mental(精神的) health.
Living Area
Host families are mainly in Zones 2, 3 and 4. Most hosts don't live in Zone 1 because much of central New York is trading center. Zones 3 and 4 often offer larger houses in uncrowded areas.
But it's very convenient to travel to the center of New York by subway.
Meal Plans
It's important to know that few American families still provide a traditional cooked breakfast.
Your breakfast mainly includes fruit juice, bread and coffee. Cheese, fruit and cold meat are not part of the breakfast. Dinners are usually made up of meat or fish with vegetables followed by dessert, fruit and coffee.
Friends
If you wish to invite a friend to visit you, you must ask your host for permission(许可) first, because some families feel uncomfortable when there are strangers at their home.
