6 . When I was a university student, I     1    (attract) by the Chinese. So I got a job as a teacher in Wuhan three years ago.     2    (think) back, I realize it was the students I met in the first year and Chinese university life in general     3     gave me the deepest impression.

Unless exams were approaching, my weekends were devoted to having fun or perhaps a part-time job. My Chinese students,     5     the other hand, seemed to spend their entire waking hours studying. I understand that competition in Chinese universities is extremely fierce. Nonetheless, their energy and motivation put     6    (I) to shame.

My first year in China was also my first year as a teacher. It was both challenging     7     rewarding. One thing I know for certain is that my year in Wuhan changed me for the     8    (good). Thanks to the politeness and     9    (warm) of Chinese students, I overcame my fear of speaking in public and became more self-confident. Most     10    (important), I met dozens of nice people and made many excellent friends.
