Video lesson: Encounters in the UK
We'll watch a 17-minute video twice and answer questions about the studying of English by four foreigners in the UK. If you'd like to view the video, it can be found here: https://www.englishclub.com/esl-videos/index.htm . Click on "The Learning English Video Project". There are 7 videos in this series and the video on the UK is the first one on the new page. If you can't open the lesson worksheet here, you can click on "classroom material" at the bottom of the video page.
P.S. 1. Cai Huibin, if Long Yuan is not reading here before Monday afternoon, would you please ask him to bring us his computer again? Thank you. If I don't forget, I will remind him too. :)
P.S. 2. You don't have to watch the video if you don't feel like it; we'll watch it twice in class anyway. As long as you comment on the worksheet (there are even questions that you can answer in your comment if you don't know what to write).

Lily, if I am an outsider (meaning somebody that doesn't know what this lesson is about), do you think I would know what the lesson is about when I read your comment? I am not convinced.
Oh, so you would get a crush on the British scenery rather than on a British boy, Xu Heyun?! Haha, I'm kidding; but I do believe that the UK and even the countries of Europe are all incredibly beautiful. Oh, I just noticed now that you would be infatuated by the British language too! I also have a dream to see the UK and Europe before my time on this earth is coming to an end, but my time is running our fast (in comparison with my students who all still have many years to realize their dreams!). Maybe we can go together! Haha, don't bet on that as it is an expensive undertaking! But, if you have this wish, start dreaming! ;-)
If you are longing to have this, Zhang Ke, start dreaming it! Everything starts with a dream, or setting goals. A man once said: "If you don't have a plan for your life, somebody else will make a plan with your life". So, before that happens, plan your life yourself! I can assure you it would be a life-changing experience which you may never regret. And a homestay experience is much more rewarding than living in a dormitory in the foreign country as you are surrounded with a family that normally would care for you. Start dreaming ..! ;-)
Maybe you must start dreaming of doing this yourself one day, Xi Rui ..?! If you are serious about mastering the English language, this is a sure way of achieving that! But, it must start as a dream in your heart first ... And you'll get another bonus when doing that - you'll get another family loving you and caring for you!
After watch the short movie I learn about that Cambrige Unitversty is a very beautiful, peacful and fancinating place .Everyone in the school love it very much ,they study english at there and sleep in the ehomestay.The host of homestay are very hot heart they also help this students learn english .So after see that I also want to go Cambrige
Well Wang Xiaoxu, if you want to do it too, start dreaming about it! Pse read my quotations to your friend, Helen, as it all applies to you too. "If you can dream it, you can do it"!
