Yes, Im having a great time on my exchange program in France. Its even better than I thought it would be. I was a bit nervous before I arrived here, but there was no reason to be. My host family is really nice. They go out of their way to make me feel at home. And you wouldnt believe how quickly my French has improved! Im very comfortable speakingFrench now. Although I still make lots of mistakes, it doesnt bother me like it used to. My biggest challenge is learning how to behave at the dinner table. As you can imagine, things are really different from the way they are at home. For example, youre not supposed to put your bread on your plate. Youre supposed to put it on the table! I thought that was pretty strange at first, but now Im used to it. Youre 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). Another thing is that it is very rude to say youre full. If you dont want any more food, you should just say, “It was delicious.” Also, its rude to put your hands in your lap. You should always keep your hands ,but not your elbows, on the table. I have to say, I find it difficult to remember everything, but Im gradually getting used to things and dont find them so strange any more. Ill write soon and tell you more about life in France. Hope youre having a good school year.Wang Kun（1）How was Wang Kun before she arrived in France?（2）Why did she have no reason to be nervous?（3）How has her French improved?（4）What is one particular challenge she is facing?（5）What does she find surprising?6. （10分） Many people have to work on the weekend.
