My family and I used to live in Belgium, and, to me, life was great. Most of my relatives and friends lived there, so there was never a of aunts to spoil me or children to play with me. My father is a journalist, there wasn't much work for him in Belgium at that time. When I was eight, he he'd found a good job in London and that we were going to move there.  I was - I didn't realize I was leaving my friends behind and throwing myself into a different world. The excitement soon after we moved there. our arrival in London, I had to start a new school and learn a  new . I didn't know things in fashion, either. For the six months I had extra lessons to  learn English. This with cards and progressed towards books. I'm a learner ,so I soon caught up. It was fitting in with other in my school that took a bit more work. For the first two years or so I was an outsider, no matter how much I tried to . This made me and sensitive - a perfect target for bullies. Thankfully, some of my classmates began to me, and they became a great help as they helped me to the things that made me a 'foreigner'.  By the time I primary school,  most people couldn't believe I had moved to England only four years before. I was able to fit in, grasp the language and adapt to the culture. Trying to fit in is my to anyone who has just moved from the homeland. or is planning to. 'Fitting in' doesn't mean completely yourself to be someone else ,but it does mean trying to  learn the culture and language, ,which will make your life easier. 小题1: A．1ack B．memory C．reason D．purpose 小题2: A．if B．but C．unless D．because 小题3: A．realized B．explained C．learned D．announced 小题4: A．shocked B．excited C．nervous D．disappointed 小题5: A．formed B．increased C．disappeared D．continued 小题6: A．On B．In C．For D．By 小题7: A．art B．history C．science D．language 小题8: A．latest B．first C．last D．former 小题9: A．ended B．assisted C．started D．stayed 小题10: A．quick B．brave C．lovely D．happy 小题11: A．classes B．grades C．children D．teachers 小题12: A．fit in B．call in C．bring in D．give in 小题13: A．lazy B．shy C．responsible D．optimistic 小题14: A．accept B．change C．blame D．challenge 小题15: A．depend on B．take up C．refer to D．leave out 小题16: A．left B．began C．had D．enjoyed 小题17: A．nearly B．specially C．finally D．hardly 小题18: A．advice B．demand C．choice D．condition 小题19: A．sharing B．keeping C．finding D．losing 小题20: A．simple B．new C．positive D．recent
