Dear Helen, 
       Thanks for your last letter. Yes, I'm enjoying myself on my exchange program in France. It's even
better than I thought it would be. I was a bit nervous before I arrived here, but there was no reason to be.
My host family is really nice. They go out of their way to make me feel at home. And you wouldn't believe
how quickly my French has improved! I'm very comfortable speaking French now. Although I still make
lots of mistakes, it doesn't bother me as it used to. My biggest challenge is learning how to behave at the
dinner table. As you can imagine, things are really not the same as the way they are at home. For example,
you're not supposed to put your bread on your plate. You're supposed to put it on the table! I thought that
was pretty strange at first, but now I'm used to it. You're not supposed to eat anything with your hands
except bread, not even fruit! (You have to cut it up and eat it with a fork.) Another thing is that it is very
rude to say you're full. If you don't want any more food, you should just say, "It was delicious." Also, it's
rude to put your hands in your lap. You should always keep your hands, but not your elbows, on the table.
I have to say, I find it difficult to remember everything, but I'm gradually getting used to things and don't
find them so strange any more. I'll write soon and tell you more about life in France. Hope you're having a
good school year.
                                                                                                                                              Yours,
                                                                                                                                               Mei Fei

On a British Airways flight from Johannesburg, a middle-aged ,rich white South American lady found herself sitting next to a black man. She called the cabin stewardess(機艙乘務員)over to complain about her seating.
“What seems to be the problem, Madam?” asked the stewardess.
“Can’t you see?” she said. “You’ve sat me next to a black man. I can’t possibly sit next to this kind of human. Find me another seat!”

Teachers say buying homework answers online is not many in schools, but an interview with school students shows only 10% are willing to finish their holiday homework by themselves.
Their main complaint is that the homework is too much for them to finish.
“As far as ！ know, many of my students have to go to all kinds of training classes during the holiday. These lake away much of their time for doing homework.”
But as for the parents  who are sending their children to these training classes  they also say they’ve got no choice. Here’s a view from a student’s father.
"All the other kids in the neighborhood are learning extra things. You know parents sometimes compare their kids. I’m afraid my kid will be less successful than the others in the future."
In order to do with this situation of students copying each other’s homework, some schools have even dropped the idea of holiday homework. Instead, they organize some interesting outdoor activities.
Educational experts say students love to learn through games or activities that they can be a part of‘ They suggest schools drop the current (目前的）homework format (設計)，and turn to homework that encourages kids to get involved (參與).This way, they would no longer want to copy from each other or buy answers through the Internet.
Answer the following questions according to what you read.
【小題1】Why do students copy or buy homework answers?
【小題2】   What do students spend much time on during the holiday?
【小題3】Most parents want their kids to be successful, don’t they?
【小題4】   How do some schools deal with the problem of students copying homework?
