Every year, many foreign students go to America to study
English. Some of them will participate in a homestay program
and live with an American family. However, others will take a S1.______
different decision. They will live with friends from their own
country. I believe that if a foreign student looks at both possibilities,
he will decide to live with an American family. Even though
there are one or two drawbacks to the homestay way, there are far S2.______
more benefits.
In making his decision about how to live in the United
States, the foreign student is smart to consider one or two S3.______
disadvantages to live with an American family. First of all, he must
realize that he is going to feel homesick at first. Living in an
American home with people of other language and culture may S4.______
cause this feeling to increase. Also, the American family could
become very protective of him. They may ask him where he is
going, when he leaves home and when he will return. Despite of
these two disadvantages, there is a stronger argument in favor of S5.______
living with Americans.
By living in an American home, the student has an opportunity
to become familiar with American customs and culture. For
instance, he will learn the importance of family closeness. He
can see how the children communicate with their parents and how
the parents educate their children. He will not feel like a stranger
because the American family will help him adjusting to a new S6.______
life. In an American home, he can learn English fast. Family
members can help him with his homeworks. When he speaks S7.______
English, they can point out his errors. In this way, he can learn
English naturally.
Although there are some disadvantage to live with an American S8.______
family, there are heavier benefits. If the foreign student at S9.______
first realizes the value of learning about a new culture and improving
his English at the same time, he will find studying there a
very big experience. S10.______

These peoples remain healthy in body and spirit despite the passage of time. While many older persons in industrial societies become weak and ill in their 60s and 70s, some Soviet Georgians, aged 110 to 140, work in the fields beside their great-great-grandchildren. Even the idea of aging is foreign to them. When asked, "At what age does youth end？" most of these old people had no answer. Several replied, "Well, perhaps at age 80." The very youngest estimate was age 60.
What accounts for this ability to survive to such old age, and to survive so well？ First of all, hard physical work is a way of life for all of these long-lived peoples. They begin their long days of physical labor as children and never seem to stop. For example, Mr. Rustam Mamedov is 142 years of age. He re members his life experiences: the Crimean War of 1854; the Turkish War of 1878; the Bolshevik Revolution in 1917. His wife is 116 years old. They have been married for 90 years. Mr. Mamedov has no intentions of retiring from his life as a farmer. "Why？ What else would I do？" he asks. Oh, he's slowed down a bit. Now he might quit for the day after 6 hours in the field instead of 10. All these people get healthful rewards from the environment in which they work. They all come from mountainous regions. They live and work at elevations of 5,000 to 12,000 feet (1,660 to 4,000 meters) above sea level. The air has less oxygen and is pollution-free. This reduced-oxygen environment makes the heart and blood vessel system stronger.
Another factor that may contribute to the good health of these people is their isolation. To a great ex tent, they are separated from the pressures and worries of industrial society.
Inherited factors also play some role. Most of the longest-lived peoples had parents and grand-parents who also reached very old ages. Good family genes may, therefore, be one factor in living longer.
Finally, although these three groups don't eat exactly the same foods, their diets are similar. The Hunzas, Vilcabambans, and Soviets eat little animal meat. Their diets are full of fresh fruits, vegetables, nuts, grains, cheese, and milk. They never eat more food than their bodies need.
It is clear that isolation from urban pressures and pollution, clean mountain air, daily hard work, moderate diets, good genes, and a youthful approach to life all contribute to the health and remarkable long life of all these people.
What is the main subject of this passage？
A．Mr. Mamedov's life.
B．A description of several societies where people live a long time.
C．Suggestions for how you can live a long life.
D．Hard physical work is a good way to live a long time.
