Reading text

Tips

  1. Start with Hi if it is an informal email to someone you know.
  2. The email can have three main paragraphs:
    • the reason for writing (= to say thank you)
    • the main point (= more details or examples)
    • a wish or offer for the future.
  3. Use emojis (e.g. smiley) or emoticons (e.g. :) ) to show you're joking.
  4. You can say See you soon / See you next year if you hope to meet again.
  5. Use a closing phrase like Keep in touch, Write soon, Speak soon or Take care.

Yes, I would like to stay with a host family in a new country. I can learn not only language but also culture. I think it is cheap to stay with a host family rather than stay at hostel.

Yes, I would like to stay with a host family in a new country. But I have no friends from another country. If I have like this friend, I want to visit and learn their languages.

In my opinion, to stay with a host family is a better idea if you want to learn quickly not only English but also their culture and traditions. In addition, it is often cheaper than stay in college accommodation.

I would like to stay with host family in a new country ,especially in the beginning. Becuz I wouldn't know the country , so l need someone to guide me and clarify the things to me . I think the beginning is always difficult that why help wouldn't be harm . In addition to that it's better to read about the country you wanna visit so you will be accustomed to the stuff .
