Have you ever been on a student exchange program？How useful was it We asked three people for their opinions．
Ellen
I spent 8days in Germany When I was studying for my Level A．I went to school every day，and spent the evenings with a family．It was great I had to speak German all the time．However，the most useful thing was that I was paying more attention to communicating in the language，instead of speaking perfect；y correct German．I was really glad that people could understand what I was saying．I'd certainly introduce it to other students studying languages．
Frank
I went on an exchange with my class for a week in Japan．Before the exchange，I thought my understanding of grammar was pretty good，but I had much trouble in listening and speaking．So，What I thought most meaningful was that I had no choice but to use everyday language skills，rather than the language from books．If I had the opportunity，I'd certainly take part in another language exchange．
Alice
I took part in a French exchange．It lasted two weeks and I stayed with my exchange family in a small town just outside Paris．I'm quite a shy person，so in the first few days，I was kind of nervous，but then it was fine．I love French and my French has always been good．But the exchange really helped develop my speaking skills，and made me a much more confident（自信的）person．It felt great to be able to talk with French people．I also found the everyone who took part in the exchange did a lot better in their end of year exams．

I met the old man at a café. “Did you hear the radio news yesterday?” he asked me. “No,” I replied. “Anything exciting?” “Exciting? No! Something very sad. A group of hungry dogs killed and ate my best friend.”
“Oh, dear!” I cried. “How did it happen?” “He was working on the hillside when the dogs attacked him. When he didn’t return, I went to the hillside and found…” “His body?” I asked. The old man drank half of his coffee. “No. I told you they were hungry dogs, didn’t I? The big bones were lying everywhere. But they found this.” He pushed open a match box he was holding in his hand. In it was a man’s thumb, lying on some white bloody material.
“This is my friend’s right thumb. The dogs ate the rest of him”. The old man began to cry. He finished his coffee quickly and left the café. I drank mine and called the waiter. “I’ll pay the gentleman’s bill. His poor friend-how terrible!” “You’ve heard the news?” The waiter laughed. “Sure. There’s a hole in the bottom of the match box. He puts his own thumb through the hole. The blood is red ink, I believe. Is the story worth a cup of coffee, sir?” “But he holds the box in his right hand.” “Yes, but listeners look into the box. They just can’t take their sight off that terrible thing. ” “And when he tells the story, he gets free cups of coffee!” I said, laughing. “Yes, sir, but only from strangers who come to this town, and, of course, he does us no harm!”We can learn from this passage .
