I'm a student in No. 1 Middle School. Now I'm telling you something about our exchange students' trip to Paris last month.

The host families(寄宿家庭) were very friendly. They made our students feel warm in their homes.But some host families were far away from the school, and our students had to leave very early in the morning to get to school on time.

The French school teachers helped our students learn a lot from the visit. They asked the tour guides(导游) to speak French slowly for our students. They showed our students around the city and some places of interest. The students could learn some of the history of France. But the local students in France had to stay at school during these activities. So our exchange students didn't have much time with them.

Most of our students had lots of chances to speak French with their host families and local students. But some local students didn't want to speak French with our exchange students, because sometimes our students couldn't understand them; and they had to talk with them in English. They felt the talking between them was very boring.

All in all, both the local students in France and our Chinese students found the tip a great one.
