Dear Zhang Li,
1. You say you are worried about staying in London with an English
family. Are you worried about the cold weather? Take some warm
clothes with you. But remember because it is often cold there,
people's houses are usually very warm. You may be too warmm,
not too cold.
2. Many British people have pets. Most pets are very friendly and not
dangerous. They won't hurt you. In one or two days, you will stop
being afraid of them.
3. You will have your own bedroom in the family's house. The family
will not come into your room, if you don't want them to. If you want
to go to someone else's room, always knock at the door and wait
before you go in.
4. Most people are worried about food and meals. Most families know
that you eat different food and many will try to give you something
you like. Be ready to try to English food. But don't be afraid to say
'No, thank you', if you really don't like it.
5. Ask to help people. Try to talk to people. If you are polite, if you are
ready to talk to and laugh with people, you will not make them away.
They will enjoy having you in the house.
6. If you get lonely, you can phone your parents. But always ask the
family first, before you use the phone. That's polite.
Be excited about your wonderful visit and look forward to it. Best
wishes to you and your friend. Have a great time!
Good luck!
Fran
