Dear Laura,
Thanks for your message. Yes, I'm having a great time on my student exchange programme in France. I was a bit (1)n 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 (2)f at home. The grandmother knows that I miss Chinese food a lot. So she actually learnt how to make Chinese food. She also has a teenage granddaughter about my (3)a who is really kind. She always talks to me in French to help me practise. You wouldn't believe how (4)q my French has improved because of that. I'm very comfortable speaking French now. (5)A I still make lots of mistakes, it doesn't worry me as it used to.
My biggest challenge is learning how to behave at the (6)d table. As you can imagine, things are very different from the way they are at home. For example, you shouldn't put your bread on your plate. You should put it on the table. I thought that was pretty strange at first, but now I'm used to it. Another example is that you shouldn't eat (7)a with your hands except bread, not even fruit. You have to cut it up and eat it with a (8)f. Another thing is that it is impolite to say you're full. If you don't want any more food, you should just say, "That was delicious." Also, you shouldn't put your elbow (肘) on the table. I have to say that I (9)f it difficult to remember everything, but I'm gradually getting used to it. I don't find French customs so strange any more.
I'll write again soon and tell you more about my life in France. Hope you're (10)h a good school year.
Yours, Tim
