One was for Grades 1, 2 and 3; one was for Grades 4, 5 and 6; the third one was for me.
The only comfort was that the children welcomed me _______ on my first day. They asked me a lot of questions, and I told them stories about myself and my life in Shanghai. The next day, I gave them a _______ to find out their levels (水平). To my surprise, though the test was very _______, over half of the students failed (不及格). But they all wanted to learn new things.

Now I’m busy preparing lessons for them every night. I can see that they are doing better and better _______ my help. I learn a lot from them too.
