Have you ever been on a student exchange program?How useful was it We asked three people for their opinions.
Ellen
I spent 8days in Germany When I was studying for my Level A.I went to school every day,and spent the evenings with a family.It was great I had to speak German all the time.However,the most useful thing was that I was paying more attention to communicating in the language,instead of speaking perfect;y correct German.I was really glad that people could understand what I was saying.I'd certainly introduce it to other students studying languages.
Frank
I went on an exchange with my class for a week in Japan.Before the exchange,I thought my understanding of grammar was pretty good,but I had much trouble in listening and speaking.So,What I thought most meaningful was that I had no choice but to use everyday language skills,rather than the language from books.If I had the opportunity,I'd certainly take part in another language exchange.
Alice
I took part in a French exchange.It lasted two weeks and I stayed with my exchange family in a small town just outside Paris.I'm quite a shy person,so in the first few days,I was kind of nervous,but then it was fine.I love French and my French has always been good.But the exchange really helped develop my speaking skills,and made me a much more confident(自信的)person.It felt great to be able to talk with French people.I also found the everyone who took part in the exchange did a lot better in their end of year exams.

I was walking down the street the other day when I suddenly saw a small wallet lying on the ground. I picked it up and opened to see if I could find the owner's name. There was nothing inside it except some money and an old photo of a woman and a young girl about twelve years old. The girl looked like the woman's daughter. I put the photo back and took the wallet to the police station. There I gave it to a policeman. Before I left, the policeman took down my name and address so that the owner could write and thank me if they found it.
That evening I went for dinner with my aunt and uncle. They also asked a young woman, so there were four people at table. Her face seemed familiar(熟悉). I was quite sure that we had met before, but I could not remember where I had seen her. During the talking, the young woman said that she had lost her wallet that afternoon. At once I knew where I had seen her. She was just the young girl in the photo though she was now much older. She was very surprised, of course, when I was able to tell her what her wallet was like.
My uncle said that we should go to the police station at once to get the wallet. As that policeman handed it over, he said it was an interesting coincidence(巧合) ----I not only found the wallet, but also made friends with the person who had lost it.The word "wallet" in the story means ______ in Chinese.
