Dear Laura,
Thanks for your message. Yes, I’m having a great time on my student exchange program in France.
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.
The grandmother knows that I miss Chinese food
a lot. So she actually learned how to make Chinese
food! She also has a teenage granddaughter about
my age who is really kind. She always talks to me
in French to help me practice.
You wouldn’t believe how quickly my French has
improved because of that. I’m very comfortable
speaking French now. Although I still make lots of
mistakes, it doesn’t worry me as it used to.
My biggest challenge is learning how to behave at the
dinner table. As you can imagine, things are very
different from 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. Another example is that 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’s impolite to
say you’re full. If you don’t want any more food,
you should just say,“That was delicious.”
Also, you’re not supposed to put your elbows
on the table. I have to say that I find it difficult
to remember everything, but I’m gradually
getting used to it. I don’t find French customs
so strange anymore.
I’ll write again soon and tell you more about
my life in France. Hope you’re having a good
school year.
Yours,
Lin Yue

Share your ideas with your class.
Group work
1.They go out of their way to make me feel at home.
go out of one’s way 特地；格外努力
e.g. John went out of his way to make his girlfriend happy.
约翰想方设法使他的女朋友高 兴。
Language points
make sb. feel at home 使某人感到宾至如归
e.g. I’m doing everything I can to make them feel at home.
我在尽我一切所能使他们感到宾至如归。
2.You wouldn’t believe how quickly my French has improved because of that.
You wouldn’t believe …是一个常用句式，相当于汉语所说的“你无法想象……；你想都想不到……；你绝不会相信……”，表示所陈述的事情超出想象。
与此类似的表达还有You would never believe…或You
would hardly believe…。
例如：
You wouldn’t believe that he found his long-lost sister in Taiwan!
你绝对想不到他在台湾找到了失散多年的姐姐！
You would never believe what quick progress he’s made ever
since he attended your class.
你根本无法想象，自从他听了您的讲课后进步有多大。
3. My biggest challenge is learning how to behave at the dinner table.
learning how to behave at the table是现在分词短语，在此用作句子的表语。再如：
His main hobby is fishing. 他的主要爱好是钓鱼。
behave
behave是不及物动词，意为“表现；行为”，behave well / badly表示“表现好/糟糕”。它的名词形式 behaviour (举止；行为)，是不可数
名词。
【运用】
请根据汉语意思补全英语句子，每空一词。
(1) 如果你那样表现，你会让人厌恶的。
____ you _______ like that, you’ll get yourself disliked.
(2) 如此的行为可能招致麻烦。
_____ _________ may cause trouble.
If behave
Such behaviour
4.I have to say that I find it difficult to remember everything, but I’m gradually getting used to it. I don’t find French customs so strange anymore.
我不得不说，我觉得记住所有的规矩是很难的，但是我也渐渐习惯了这些，不再觉得它们奇怪了。
（1）在 I find it difficult to remember... 句中，it是形式宾 语，真正的宾语是后面的动词不定式短语 to remember everything。其句型结构为：find+ it + adj. + to do sth. 类似用法的动词还有：think, believe, know, feel等。
（2）be/get used to 意为“习惯于……”，后接名词、代词或动名词。
I find ______ important to get along well with others.
A. that B. this C. it D. them
解析：选C。本题考查it 作形式宾语的用法。句中it代替不定式短语 “to get along well with others”作形式宾语。
【运用】
Tony used to ______ to school, but he is used to ______ to school now.
A. walk; taking a bus B. walked; took a bus
C. walk; take a bus D. walk; took a bus
解析：选A。句意：Tony过去常步行去上学，但他现在习惯了乘公共汽车去上学。used to“过去经常”，后接动词原形；be used to doing sth. “习惯于做某事”。故选A。
used to 表示“过去经常”，后接动词原形。
be/get used to 表示“习惯于”，后接名词、代词或动词-ing形式。
be used to do/be used for doing 表示“用于；被用来做”， 是动词use的被动结构。
