I’m studying in a university for my bachelor’s degree and     1     (这是我第一次离开父母).

I     2     (发现自己既困惑又沮丧) in the first few weeks. I also     3     (想家), recalling all sorts of things back home. Later, I     4     (逐渐适应了新的环境) as an international student. Besides, I made friends and became increasingly confident day by day. Moreover,     5     (忙于学习和参与社会活动), I started to feel at home in the new environment. With everything changing for the better, I     6     (变得更有动力，更有抱负).

All of us     5     (发自内心地表达我们对他的敬意).

When my teacher asked me a question in class,    1     (我的大脑突然变成一片空白). I kept moving my lips but couldn’t utter a word.     2     (令我非常悲伤的是), other students exploded with laughter,     3     (毫无同情心地嘲笑我). I was overcome with grief, my face flushing with embarrassment. I dropped my eyes down,     4     (等待着老师的批评). But my teacher comforted me gently, “Take it easy. You can blossom into a good student with great efforts.” The smile on my teacher’s face shone like a diamond,     5     (驱散了我糟糕的情绪).
