Hi Ellie,
It’s Jack’s friend Dan here. Hope all’s going well with you. I can’t believe you’re in your final year already! I’m at Leeds doing the same engineering course as you. The work was difficult at first, but now the course is going OK.
You’re probably wondering why I’m writing to you. I spoke to your brother and he said you wouldn’t mind if I got in touch with you. We’ve been given the chance to do the year-abroad program next year. I heard that you had done this program last year in Austria. I just want to ask you about a couple of things. The choices they’ve given us are Poland, Lithuania, the Netherlands, Portugal and Greece. To be honest, I don’t know much about any of those countries. And I can only speak a little French — languages are never my strong point!
So first, how important do you think it is to be able to speak the language of the host university country? Does the organization set up language classes for the foreign students? Another thing is about accommodation (住宿). How did you look for a living place? Did the organization help you out or did you find your own accommodation?
One more thing, do you know how I can apply for a scholarship (申请奖学金)? Sorry to ask you so many questions, but I really need your help!
Thanks so much and hope all goes well with your finals.
Yours, Dan

Bryan loved to play video games. Every day after school, he walked home quickly and did his homework right away. He did his homework as fast as possible, because after that, he was free to play video games until dinner time.
One day, Bryan sat down on the sofa in front of the television and began to play. After almost an hour, Bryan’s mom walked into the room. Mom said, “You’ll become a video game controller (控制器) yourself one day.”
