I'm going to England (London) in July. This is my first time to England. I don't know what to prepare Please advise.

It must be summer camp.

First, clothes

The weather in Britain is much cooler than that in China. Bring at least a pair of jeans or double-decker clothes in cold weather. In addition, some clothes should be prepared in summer. Prepare more underwear and bring a set of pajamas. If it rains in England, you can bring clothes such as rain-proof silk.

Second, electrical appliances

You can bring a small electronic dictionary, preferably one that can pronounce and facilitate communication. If you bring larger appliances, you need to have a conversion plug. The power socket in Britain is different from the plug of household appliances.

Third, commonly used drugs

Cold, fever, anti-inflammatory, carsick, digestion, diarrhea, purple medicine, band-aid, etc.

Four. essay

Personal items such as toothpaste, toothbrush and towel need to be prepared.

It is best to wear soft-soled shoes such as hiking shoes.

Film and batteries are more expensive in Britain, but they can be more in China.

It often rains in England, so you'd better take an umbrella.

Verb (short for verb) cash

Prepare about 500 pounds in cash.

Six, travel bag

Try to buy a light one. In addition, airlines also have restrictions on its size. The sum of the three sides cannot exceed 158 cm, and the weight limit is 20kg.

Seven. others

You can bring some instant noodles in moderation in case you don't adapt to the local diet when you first arrive in Britain.

The standards of mobile phones and cards in Britain are exactly the same as those in China. If you have communication needs, you can bring your mobile phone and buy a card in the UK to use it directly.

Students attending the British summer camp should pay attention to the following items during their stay in the UK:

1. Strictly observe discipline and do not leave the team without authorization.

2. Do not engage in activities without the approval of the school and the leading teacher. If in doubt, you should ask the teacher.

We should respect British culture and customs, and should not treat and deal with things during our stay in Britain according to domestic standards in China.

4. Be strict with yourself when flying, studying and traveling in Britain, which reflects the moral and educational level of China people. Please pay special attention to the following aspects:

* People have to queue in places, such as bank windows, buses and public service facilities. Don't rush up. Queuing is an important part of British culture.

* Don't talk loudly anywhere. In this respect, the daily habits of China people are quite different from those of Britain. For example, don't call your partner or friend loudly in public.

* When you meet someone intentionally or unintentionally, you must say "I'm sorry". Learn to say sorry often and never leave. For example, getting in someone else's way, or doing something inappropriate or wrong.

* When asking for help (such as asking for directions or asking others to make way), be sure to say "I'm sorry" first.

The use of English is not only a linguistic issue, but also a cultural issue. Pay attention to the following aspects:

If you eat in an English family and you are not full, you should say, "May I have some more?" After getting a positive answer, be sure to say "thank you". Never say no.

* Learn to say "thank you" often. In any case, when others help you, be sure to say thank you. For example, when you don't need other people's help, you should say "no, thank you." For example, when eating, someone gives you more rice or asks if you want it. When you don't need it, you should say "no, thanks." .

* When you don't understand English, you can say "I'm sorry?" Or "what?" .

6. Daily food in Britain is completely different from Chinese food, so we should be fully prepared. Many students in China feel uncomfortable, but it is also a rare opportunity to experience the British way of life.

7. Common terms to master:

* * Full breakfast or cooked breakfast: traditional English breakfast (generally including fried eggs, fried bacon slices and fried sausages) is large. But now most British people don't eat such breakfast.

Toast: Toast. This is a must for breakfast in England. Butter is usually used.

Cereal: cereal. This is the most common breakfast in Britain. This is cereal soaked in milk.

Milk: British people drink milk in a completely different way from us. They all drink cold, not heated. And the British don't drink milk alone. They usually make cereal with milk or put it in coffee.

Tea: English tea is different from ours, with milk and sugar. To say "a sugar" is to add a teaspoon of sugar. Milk is usually added by yourself. You can add it or not, help yourself.

* underground: this is the name of the British Subway, also called tube, not "subway" This is the name of the United States, which means the underground passage in Britain.

* * expressway: expressway.

When students go to summer camp in England, their clothes should be simple and casual. Don't bring shoes, suits or formal clothes. But don't wear sandals. The climate in Britain is very cool. It will be cold sooner or later in summer. It's almost the same as spring in China. But there's no need to bring sweaters and ball pants.

8. It is suggested that every student bring a set of pajamas and put them on when sleeping at night. Otherwise, it will be considered a vulgar living habit.

9. It is recommended to bring more underwear and underwear that can be changed with you, at least 5-6 sets. You don't need to bring more coats and pants, 2-3 sets are enough.

10. Bring your own dental appliances and towels. And it is best to bring a bath towel that is not very heavy.

1 1. It is suggested that students bring some small gifts with China characteristics, such as Chinese knots symbolizing good luck and happiness, bracelets, necklaces or China gift fans with pure China characteristics as gifts for staying in British families. Gifts don't need to be expensive, just a few dollars each.

12. It is suggested that everyone should bring about 500 pounds of pocket money in case of emergency.

13. There are many decorations in British families. Please be careful not to damage them. Once damaged, it needs to be compensated according to the price.
