get used to a whole new life,”she said.“I had to learn how to use public transport and how to ask for things I didnt know the English names for.When l got lost,I had to ask passers-by for help,but people here speak fast and use words Im not familiar with.I ask them to repeat themselves a lot!”Although some foreign students live in campus accommodation,Xie Lei chose to live with a host family,who can help with her adaptation to the new culture.“When I miss home,I feel comforted to have a second family,”Xie Lei said.“When theres something I dont know or understand,I can ask them.They are also keen to learn about China.Laura,the daughter of my host family,wants to study in China in the future.We take turns to cook each evening.They really love my stir-fried tomatoes and eggs!Laura says she always feels hungry when she smells it,so I taught her how to cook it,too.”One Challengelifeat firsthave to had to had to stressedmiss homecomforteddont know or understandhome-sickcomfortedat

must acknowledge what other people had said if she cited their ideas,but that he mainly wanted to know what she thought!Xie Lei was confused because she thought she knew less than other people.Her tutor advised her to read lots of information in order to form a wise opinion of her own.Xie Lei also found many courses included students participation in class as part of the final result.Students need to generate ideas,offer examples,apply concepts,and raise questions,as well as give presentations.At first,Xie Lei had no idea what she should say,but what surprised her was that she found herself speaking up in class after just a few weeks.“My presentation on traditional Chinese art was a great success,which boosted my confidence,”she said.“Ill use these skills back home for presentations.Theyll help me build a strong business in the future.Another Challengestudyat firstconfusedconfusedhad no ideasurpriseda great successboosted my confidencelostconfidentPart Two(Para

helped,”she said.“As well as studying hard,Ive been involved in social activities.British people are fascinated by our culture and eager to learn more about it,so Im keen to share my culture with them.While Im learning about business,Im also acting as a cultural messenger building a bridge between us.”Changenowcultural exchangefascinated by eager to learn keen to share Now halfway through her
