Answer 1

Dear Sir,
I’m writing to request a valuable chance to be one of the host families for the British students. Located in a beautiful and quiet neighborhood, our large fully-equipped apartment can meet all their needs.
Apart from the convenient public transportation, our own car can also take them to some nearby places of interest．With fluent English and an outgoing personality, my parents and I are sure to have no difficulty communicating with them. Above all, we have hosted some American friends, through which we’ve gained lots of experience. In addition, my mother is expert in cooking, and it can guarantee them a wonderful chance of tasting delicious Chinese food.
I would greatly appreciate it if I could have the chance to host them and make friends with them. Looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
Li Hu
