This is called homestay. It is a great experience because you can meet people from a different country
or city and learn something new about that place. I am Wan Li from China. I came to the UK with my
friends for a short visit. we are living with an English couple, Mr. and Mrs.Green, in the west of London.

with many beautiful flowers. I have a bedroom of my own.
     There are some shopping centres and restaurants near the house, and the house is close to an under-
ground station. It takes about thirty minutes to get to the centre of London.

  President (總統(tǒng)) George W Bush is visiting an elementary school today and visits one of the 4th grade classes. They are in the middle of a discussion(討論) of words and their meanings.

  The teacher asks the President if he would like to lead the class in the discussion of the word“tragedy”. So the President asks the class for an example of a“tragedy”.

  One little boy stands up and says,“If my best friend, who lives next door, is playing in the street and a car comes along and runs him over, that would be a tragedy.”

  “No,”says Bush,“that would be an accident.”

  A little girl puts up her hand,“If a school bus carrying 50 children drove off a cliff(懸崖), killing everyone in the bus, that would be a tragedy.”

  “I am afraid not,”explains the President.“That is what we would call a GREAT LOSS(損失).”

  The room goes quiet. No other children answer. President Bush looks around the mom.“Is not there someone here who can give me an example of a tragedy?”

  At last, in the back of the room, a boy named Johnny puts up his hand. In a quiet voice he says,“If Air Force One, carrying you and Mrs Bush, was hit by a missile(導(dǎo)彈) and blown up to pieces, that would be a tragedy.”

  “Right,”exclaims(大叫)Bush,“that is right, and can you tell me why that would be a tragedy?”

  “Well,”little Johnny says,“because, as you just told us, it would not be an accident, and it sure as well would not be a great loss.”
