　　Some intensive¹ English programs in the United States offer a foreign student the option of living with an American family while he or she is studying abroad. Many students feel that such a home-stay program is a valuable part of their total learning² experience. However, others may feel that such a plan offers little value. In a short essay, discuss one or two advantages of living with an American family and then state one or two disadvantages. Tell whether you are in favor of or opposed to the idea of home-stay. Give examples to support your opinion.

　　Every year, many foreign students go to America to study English. Some of this (them) will participate in a home-stay program and live with an American family. However, others will take (make) a different decision. They will live with friends from their own country. I believe that if a foreign student looks at both possibilities, he will decide to live with an american (American) family. Even though there are one or two drawbacks³ to the home-stay way (option), there are far more benefits. 

　　In taking (making) his decision about how to live in the United States, the foreign student is smart (wise) to consider one or two disadvantages to living with an American family. First of all, he must realize that he is going to feel homesick at first. Living in an American home with people of other (another) language and culture may cause this feeling to increase. Also, the american family could become very protective⁴ of him. They may ask him where he is going when he leaves home and when he will return. 

　　Despite these two disadvantages, there is a stronger idea (argument) in favor of living with Americans. By living in american (an American) home, the student has (has an) opportunity to become familiar with American customs and culture. For instance⁵, he will learn how important the (the importance of ) family closeness is (closeness). He can see how the children communicate with their parents and how the parents educate their children. He will not feel like a stranger because the American family will help him adjusting (adjust) to a new life. In an American home, he can learn English fast. Family members can help him with his homeworks (homework). 

　　When he speaks English, they can point (point out )his errors. In this way, he can learn English naturally. Although there are some disadvantage (disadvantages) to living with an American family, there are heavier (greater) benefits. If the foreign student at first realizes the values of learning about a new culture and improving his English at the same time, he will definitely⁶ choose to experience a home-stay in the United States. With an American family, he will find studying there a very big (rewarding) experience.

　　After a foreign student has decided⁷ to come to the United States to study English, he must think about where (where he) is going to live and with whom. I believe that he should live with (an) American family if he can becuase (because) they can give him the support (that) he needs. They can help him improve his English, too. 

　　To begin with, the foreigner who inhabits⁸ (lives) with an American family can rely on them for suprot (support) as he adjusts to a complete (completely) new way of life. Suppose that (This is especially helpful if) he becomes homesick. Another advantage to living with an American family is (that) the student can improve his English quick (quickly). He will met (meet) friends who came (come) to visit. he (He ) will force (be forced) to use English whether he wants to or not. 

　　As far as disadvantages are concerned, I see only one (one:) he may be treated like a baby. The family (family will) want to protect him from danger (dangerous) situations. I will conclude by saying that even is the student has to put up (with) being treated like a child sometimes, he is better off the live (living) with an American family which they (who) can help home. He will find kindness and support when he is new in the country. Also, he will speak English most of the time.

　　A foreing (foreign) student studying in America is wise to live with an American family because when a foreing (foreign) student came (comes) to the United States he must make many important adjustment (adjustments). A foreing (foreign) student must change to survive in his new imvironment (environment). 

　　A foreing (foreign) student also learns how to take on responsibilities concerning¹⁰ his new family, he  adopts (adapts) to their American life style (lifestyle) as they adopt (adapt) to his. It is a learning experience on both parts. You have a (A student has an) advantage when living (he lives) with an American family. Because (because) they would (he will) learn the american (American) ways and customs better with an american (American) family than if they would live (he lived) with there (his) own homeboys (countrymen). 

　　The american (American) family becomes a second family to the foreing (foreign) student. At times a foreing (foreign) student may get homesick; but having (having) a trustworthy second family can give him the security¹¹ and acceptance¹² he (that he) needs. He is probably use (used) to having a family around him, so he will feel safe if he lives with an American family. Then he must consider that he will be in a strange place. Everything will be new to you (him). His American family can help him learn his way around. So (Therefore) foreing (a foreign student) is smart to live with an American family. 　　 　　

　　范文五（2分）
　　My opinion about this subject is that it depends in (on) your level of comprehension regard (regarding) conversational¹³ english (English). In other words; (words,) if you understand a considerable¹⁴ amount of english (English) language, your best bet⁹ would be to chose (choose) living with an American family. But, if your comprehension level is so low, in which (that) a basic communication is not possible, then (it) would be wise to (for) you to choose living with people of your same country and (or) language
