【題目】Ken and Anthony were childhood friends. They went to elementary and high school together. They went to college in different states, and then they lost touch. That was twenty years ago.

Ken did, and the two men grabbed a cup of coffee at a nearby café.

am used to a bit nervous improved so strange learning

Dear Laura,

Thanks for your message. Yes, I’m having a great time on my exchange programme in France. I was 【1】 before I arrived here. But my host family is really nice. And you wouldn’t believe how quickly my French has 2 ! I’m very comfortable speaking French now. Although I still make lots of mistakes, it doesn’t bother me like it used to. My biggest challenge is 3 how to behave at the dinner table. As you can imagine, things are really different from the way they are at home. For example, you’re not supposed to put your bread on your plate. You’re supposed put it on the table! I thought that was pretty strange at first, but now I 4 it. You’re not supposed to eat anything with your hands except bread, not even fruit! You have to cut it up and eat it with a fork. Also, it’s rude to put your hands in your lap. You should always keep your hands on the table. I have to say, I find it difficult to remember everything, but I’m getting used to things and don’t find them 5 any more. I’ll write soon and tell you more about life in France. Hope you’re having a good school year.
