This is my first day at senior high school. Before going to school, I was a bit anxious but curious. I wanted to make a good first    1    (impress) and hoped to achieve excellent results, so I    2    (exchange) some ideas with my father. He told me not to be frightened,     3     (say) there’s a lot to explore at senior high. First of all, I should be confident     4    try to be outgoing, which can help me to make some friends, although people have different personalities. Besides, I should develop good learning styles. For example, I should still concentrate in class,    5    (especial) on the experiment and revise in time, which is certain     6    (help) improve my performance. What’s more, I should take    7     (note) when teachers explain some important knowledge and if I have questions, I shouldn’t feel awkward to ask the teachers for help. Additionally, I should behave well    8     campus, and try to be polite to anyone.

I had my first maths class in the morning. The class was a bit difficult but the teacher was kind and friendly,     9    told us some practical strategies of learning maths. In general, I had a     10    (wonder) day.

In my early years at school, I had trouble with some subjects. Sometimes I would get an “F” and that would make me     1    (real) scared. What I used to do was turn the “F” into a “B”     2    (please) my parents. However, it didn’t work out and finally I was caught doing that. Then I knew I had to accept that failure and learn from it, so I     3    (take) a positive approach. Naturally that “F” turned into a “B” and that “B” turned into an “A”.

It was my first time spending Spring Festival in China     1     my host family. Spring Festival is highly valued by every Chinese family. Preparations began a week before the festival. First, the house     2     (clean) from top to bottom. Next, the Chinese character Fu was attached upside down to our front door. It is believed that when Fu is put upside down,     3     (happy) arrives. The character looked really cool.

I’m not exactly the most prepared person — I often forget things. These things such as pencils, pens, my phone and sometimes even my purse,     1     (put) in wrong places. I seldom remember to carry an umbrella — I normally have     2     (run) in the rain.

One day, I was walking to the school,     3     I teach art, when a summer rainstorm suddenly started.     4     (lucky), this time I actually happened to have an umbrella with me and this one was my favorite! So I smiled and enjoyed     5     (walk) on in the heavy rain with my umbrella.
