[Xiuyang Sharing] Memories kill, I was a freshman
Hey, when I see this topic, I am very emotional. Think it's almost a year since we arrived in the United States. 🐑Yes17Year8Month21 to the United States.
Before I was in China, I thought I was unfamiliar with this place, so I thought about choosing a place to stay.homestay< span class="s1">Transition, after all, it feels like home, and home-mom manages three meals a day .
I was very apprehensive before coming here. Fortunately, when I was in China, the airport pick-up and accommodation were all connected, so I settled down smoothly!
I stayed athomestay for two months, the environment is very good, this homestay The owner is also good, the only drawback is that he doesn't like to cook, and the food is so-so…It is an incentive🐑An opportunity to embark on the path of Sheep Chef.
👇The noodles she made for us were not fully cooked. I'm a little tired. Just put some soy sauce…Uneven salt taste… span>The face is also cluttered…
This is her fried dish👇There is very little meat for three meals, No oil and water, hungry every day…
The advantage is that the environment is not bad, so Sheep took a lot of photos at her house at that time, very American! Share with Yami's friends.
👇It is the living room with good light transmission. The post-adjustment light is really beautiful!
Photos of her family were placed on the small table.
This is the doorway, I especially like the glass, it's beautiful.
👇This is one of my favorite photos!

The learning environment is very good, and the window is green.
You can also see deer outside.
However, it is too far from the school, she only accepts all-inclusive, that is, accommodation plus meals, but she often does not cook on time, and the cooked rice is difficult to describe…Sheep moved to something else after two monthsapt
Although the environment is far less than here, I am free and I have learned to cook a lot of delicious food.🐑I feel that I have gained a lot!
Experience:
homestayAs a transition, it is still acceptable. If you live for a long time, it depends on all aspects of your home. The good ones are still very good, and they will give you infinite care like family members.
In fact, it is set in ChinaaptIt is also very good! It is not as uncomfortable as I imagined, it is better to be closer to the school, the point is that it is very convenient!
Yes, I was nervous to call the locals when I first came out! I'm afraid that I can't say it well and I'm afraid that I won't understand it, but you must be bold and have the courage to try. Just hit it a few more times! Learn by doing! Don't be afraid if you make a mistake, just saysorry if you don't understand, and the other party will explain it to you slowly.
There is a big difference between Chinese and British and American phone calls.
Talk in English to learn the following points:
1. When the caller is connected, they can say:Hello span>! Continue:This is sb.speaking./Could(May)I speak to sb.?/Is sb.in?
But don't ask:Who are you?
The caller can say:Hello! Good morning/afternoon/evening. Then tell the other person your name. Such as:This is Jim speaking.
2. Ask who the person is, Don't say:Who are you ? Say:Who's that speaking(calling)?/May I have your name? /Is that sb. (speaking)?
3.To answer the phone on behalf of someone, it is best to say:What name shall I give?/Who shall Isay is calling?
To leave and call someone, say:Hold the line,please.I'll get him/her to phone.(Don't hang up, I'll find him (her) Listen to the phone. ) or Hold on for a moment.(Please wait a moment.) Conversely, if the person you are calling is nearby, The person answering the call can say: It's for you.orFor you. (Your phone.)
4. If the person to call is not available, The person answering the phone can say:Sorry, he/she isn't in. orI'm afraid he/she is o ut.(He/she is not.)
If asked if they want to leave a message, say:May I take a message for you? /Can Itake a messag e?/Would you like to leave a message?
When the caller wants to ask the receiver to tell the person he is looking for something, Ask:Could you take a message for me?/Please tell him (her)that(< span class="s3">sth.)……./Tell him(her)I called./Will you please tell him (her)to call me back later?
Keep it up. Hope you all get better!

【秀羊分享】回忆杀，我曾是新生
诶呀，看到这个话题，羊无限感慨。想想快到美国快一年了。🐑是17年8月21号到的美国。
之前在国内想着刚到这边人生地不熟，住宿的问题就想着选homestay过渡一下，毕竟有家的感觉，还有home-mom管一日三餐。
来之前还是很忐忑。好在在国内的时候，机场接送，住宿都联系好了，所以也算是顺风顺水地安顿下来了！
我在homestay待了两个月，环境很好，这家主人也不错，唯一的缺点就是比较不爱做饭，饭也是马马虎虎…算是激励🐑走上羊小厨道路的一个契机。
👇是她给我们做的面，都没完全熟。心有点累。就放了点酱油……盐味不均匀…面也坨了…
这是她炒的菜👇三餐很少有肉吃，没有油水，每天都是饥肠辘辘…
优点就是环境还不错，所以当时羊在她家里拍了很多照片，非常美式！分享给亚米的小伙伴。
👇是客厅，透光还不错。后期调调光线真的美美的！
小桌上摆了她家人的照片。
这是门口，我特别喜欢这块玻璃，很漂亮。
👇这是我最喜欢的一张照片！
厨房一角。
客厅👇
我的房间一角。早上的阳光会透进来，很喜欢。
住的2楼
学习环境很好，窗外一片绿。
外面还能看见小鹿。
可是呢，离学校太远了，她只接受全包，就是住宿加吃饭，可是她经常不按时煮饭，煮的饭也是一言难尽…羊就在两个月以后搬到了别的apt
虽然环境远远比不上这里，可是自由自在，还学会了做很多的好吃的，🐑觉得也收获了很多！
经验：
homestay作为过渡，还是可以接受，长住的话要看住家各方面。碰到的好的还是非常好，会像家人一样给你无限的关怀。
其实在国内就定好apt也很好！也并没有想象的那么不适应，还是离学校近一些比较好，重点是非常的方便！
对啦，刚出来给当地人打电话很紧张！怕说不好也怕听不明白，但是一定要胆子大，勇于尝试。多打几次就好了！在实践中学习！错了也不要怕，听不懂就说sorry就好了，对方会慢慢给你讲明白的。
中国人与英美人打电话有很大差异。
用英语打电话要掌握以下几点：
1. 打电话人接通电话后可说：Hello ！ 接着说：This is sb.speaking./Could（May）I speak to sb.?/Is sb.in?
但不能问：Who are you？
接电话人可说：Hello！Good morning/afternoon/ evening. 紧接着将自己的姓名告诉对方。如：This is Jim speaking.
2. 问对方是谁， 不说：Who are you ？ 而应说：Who's that speaking（calling）?/May I have your name? /Is that sb. （speaking）？
3.代人接电话，最好说：What name shall I give?/Who shall Isay is calling?
若要离开去叫人， 须跟对方说：Hold the line,please.I'll get him/her to phone.（别挂断，我就去找他（她）听电话。 ）或Hold on for a moment.（请等一会儿。）反之， 若电话要找的人在身边，代接电话的人可说：It's for you.或For you. （你的电话。）
4. 如果打电话要找的人不在， 代接电话的人可说：Sorry,he/she isn't in.或I'm afraid he/she is o ut.（他／她不在。）
如果问对方是否要留话，说：May I take a message for you? /Can Itake a messag e?/Would you like to leave a message?
打电话者若要拜托接电话人转告要找的人某事时， 可问：Could you take a message for me?/Please tell him （her）that（sth.）……./Tell him（her）I called./Will you please tell him （her）to call me back later?
再接再厉。希望大家都越变越好！
