Homestay provides English language students with the opportunity to speak English outside

the classroom and the experience of being part of a British home.

What to Expect

The host will provide accommodation and meals. Rooms will be cleaned and bedcovers

changed at least once a week. You will be given the house key and the host is there to offer help

and advice as well as to take an interest in your physical and mental health.

Meal Plans Available

※ Continental Breakfast

※ Breakfast and Dinner

※ Breakfast, Packed Lunch and Dinner

It’s important to note that few English families still provide a traditional cooked breakfast.

Your accommodation includes Continental Breakfast which normally consists of fruit juice,

cereal(谷物类食品), bread and tea or coffee. Cheese, fruit and cold meat are not normally part of

a Continental Breakfast in England. Dinner usually consists of meat or fish with vegetables

followed by dessert, fruit and coffee.

Friends

If you wish to invite a friend over to visit, you must first ask your host’s permission. You

have no right to entertain friends in a family home as some families feel it is an invasion of their

privacy.

Self-catering Accommodation in Private Homes

Accommodation on a room-only basis includes a shared kitchen and bathroom facilities and

often a main living room. This kind of accommodation offers an independent lifestyle and is more

suitable for the long-stay student. However, it does not provide the same family atmosphere as an

ordinary homestay and may not benefit those who need to practise English at home quite as much.

A．Room cleaning. B．Medical care.

C．Physical training. D．Free accommodation.

2．What does Continental Breakfast include?

A．Cheese and cold meat. B．Fruit and coffee.

C．Fruit juice and bread. D．Dessert and tea.

3．What’s the advantage of self-catering accommodation for students?

Computer people talk a lot about the need for other people to become “computer-literate.” But not

all experts (专家) agree that this is a good idea.

One pioneer, in particular, who disagrees is David Tebbutt, the founder of Computertown UK.

Although many people see this as a successful attempt to bring people closer to the computer.

David does not see it that way. He says that Computertown UK was formed for just the opposite

reason, to bring computers to people and make them “people-literate.” David Tebbutt thinks

Computertowns are most successful when tied to a computer club but he insists there is an

important difference between the two. The clubs are for people who have some computer

knowledge already. This frightens away non-experts, who are happier going to Computertowns

where there are computers for them to experiment on, with experts to encourage them and answer

any questions they have. They are not told what to do, they find out.The computer experts have to

learn not to tell people about computers, but have to be able to answer all questions people ask.

People don’t have to learn computer terms(术语), but the experts have to explain in plain

language. The computers are becoming “people-literate.”

4．Which of the following is David Tebbutt’s ideas on the relationship between people and

computers?

A．Computer learning should be made easier.

B．There should be more computer clubs for experts.

C．People should work harder to master computer use.

D．Computers should be made cheaper so that people can afford them.

5．We can infer from the text that “computer-lilerate” means_______.

A．being able to afford a computer

B．being able to write computer programs

C．working with the computer and finding out its value

D．understanding the computer and knowing how to use it

6．The underlined word “it” in the second paragraph refers to the idea that Computertowns ___.

A．help to set up more computer clubs

B．bring people to learn to use computers

C．bring more experts to work together

D．help to sell computers to the public

7．David Tebbutt started Computertown UK with the purpose of______.

A．making better use of computer expert

B．improving computer programs

C．increasing omputersales

D．popularising computers

I know what courage looks like. I saw it on a flight I took six years ago, and only now can I

speak of it without tears filling my eyes at the memory.

Our flight left the Orlando Airport one Friday morning. But immediately upon the take-off, it

was clear that something was wrong. The aircraft was bumping (颠簸) up and down. All the

experienced travellers, including me, looked around with knowing (会意的) smiles. If you fly

much, you see these things and learn to act calmly about them. However, we did not remain calm

for long.

Minutes after we were in the air, our plane began falling quickly. The pilot soon made a

serious announcement. “We are having some difficulties,” he said. “Our indicators show that the

control system has failed. We will be returning to the Orlando Airport. The flight attendants will

prepare you for a bumpy landing. Also, if you look out of the windows, you will see that we are

dumping (倾倒) fuel from the airplane. We want to have as little on board as possible in the event

of a rough touchdown.” In other words, we were about to crash. Many travellers looked visibly

frightened now. No one faces death without fear, I thought.

Then a couple of rows to my left, I heard a still calm voice, a woman’s voice, speaking in an

absolutely normal conversational tone. I had to find the source of this voice. All around, people
