Homestay Holiday

  “Homestay is a form of study abroad program. It allows the visitor to rent a room from a local (當(dāng)?shù)氐? family to better understand the local lifestyle. It also helps to. improve the visitor ’s language ability ,said a teacher during a school meeting last term. u Students who wish to learn more about foreign cultures or to get foreign experience should join this kind of holiday. I am sure you won’t be disappointed (失望的). ”

  After this special meeting,I always thought about this kind ofholiday. Last month,I had a chance at last to go on such a holiday with some oi my schoolmates and we went to London,a place where I had wanted to go since years ago.

  As we were still young we had a group leader who planned things for us and looked after us. A^er

we got to London,we went to stay with different families. I was lucky that my host family (寄宿家庭)was a white couple who had a daughter about my age. They treated me as a daughter of their family during my stay there. They were interested in me and I learned a lot of things from them,too.

  The holiday was filled with activities every day. After breakfast,a local teacher would come to take

us in his car. Then we would have classes or go on a sight-seeing trip to different places of interest like

the Big Ben,the London Bridge,and the Buckingham Palace. We would go back to our own homes after the activities.

  The holiday was a valuable experience for me. I enjoyed every minute of it. Yet,time really flew fast. Three weeks later,we had to leave “home” for Hong Kong.

Some people think only school children do not agree with their parents,however,it is not true. Communication is a problem for parents and children of all ages. If it,s hard for you to communicate with your parents,don^ worry about it. Here are some advice for you to bridge the generation gap (代溝).

Don’t argue (爭辯) with your parents. Don’t get to your parents when you are angry. Your parents

probably won’t  consider your ideas if you are shouting at them. And you can t express yourself well if you are angry. Go someplace to cool off. Make sure you understand why you are unhappy. Then think a-bout what you want to say to your parents. If you don t think you can speak to them at the moment,try writing a letter.

Try to reach a compromise (和解) .Perhaps you and your parents disagree on something. You can

keep your disagreement and try your best to accept each other. Michael, s  mother didn’t agree with him about buying a motorcycle. They argued over it. But they finally came to a compromise. Michael bought the motorcycle,but only drove it on certain days.

Of course,your parents might refuse to compromise on something. In these situations,it is especially

important to show love and respect (尊敬) to them. Showing respect will keep your relationship strong.

Talk about your values. The values of your parents are probably different from those of your own. Tell your parents what you care about,and why. Understanding your values might help them see your purposes in life.

A good relationship with your parents can make you a better and happier person. It is worth having a try!
