六、完形填空
I know how hard it is to make friends in a new school. I once joined the football team and the Music Club in my school of Toronto. I was very
popular
at that time. My school life was wonderful.
Everything
became different when I was 16 years old because my parents needed to move to Florida. Almost no one can
quickly
adapt to(适应) a totally new environment. So changing to a new school was not easy for me. The class schedule(时间表) was different, and the teachers and students were
strange
for me. I was scared to make friends with them. Some kids tried to be nice to me, but I was not brave to have a talk with them.
After staying in the new school for a few weeks, I realized(意识到) that my classmates became
less
patient and no one tried to communicate(沟通) with me any more. I began to feel lonelier. Two months later, we had a group work that
needed
teamwork. Group members studied together and
offered
to help each other. Then I became
aware
that this was the right chance. I began to enter the circle of their friends. After class, I had lunch and played football with them, which brought me closer to them. My heart was full of happiness. Several years later, we still kept in touch with each other. And today those times have become a great
treasure
to me.
Sometimes, if we can't change the environment around us, change
ourselves
in time. After all, life is always changing.
