(2023·山东潍坊临朐一模)We all like to travel to other countries. We enjoy the scenery(风景) from our hotel rooms, look through guidebooks, and visit popular places of interest. Then we return home with happy memories and 200 photos. 1.________ Is there any difference between travelling to a country and living and studying in that country?
2.________ She knew it would be difficult for her to speak English at first and she knew she would miss her parents and friends in her home town, but she wanted to experience the real America.
Gina lives with her parents in Giverny. “I didn't want to go to a city before,” she said. Giverny is a rather small town, so it was perfect for her. 3.________ “Everything is bigger,” she said. “The houses, the schools and the shops.”
Gina found school life very difficult at first. She had to be very independent without her parents' help. She did most things on her own. Of course, the hardest part was that everything had to be done in English. 4.________ “They quickly made me feel at home,” she said. Did anything surprise her? “I thought the food would be terrible,” she said. “But the local family I stayed with loved cooking, so in fact, I ate well.
