The big day finally arrived: my first day at senior high! The campus was still quiet when I arrived early, so I decided to explore a bit.
“ ___114___ here?” Turning around, I saw a man in his forties. “Yes,” I replied. “I was wondering what life is going to be like here.” “Don’t worry,” he gave me a smile.“ You’ll soon find out.”
The first class was English. Amazingly, the ___115___ man stepped into the classroom and said,” Good morning, everyone. Before we start, time for self-introduction. I’ll go first …“
”What?!“ I tried to ___116___ my brain but the engine just wouldn’t start.” I should say my name, of course. But what else? I was organizing my words in my head when the girl next to me said, “It’s your turn!”
With my heart beating ___117___ , I breathed deeply. “Hi, I’m Meng Hao.” Everyone started laughing, I looked at them in panic. “Nice to know we ___118___ the same name,” said my new teacher. Although I was embarrassed, his ___119___ made me a lot more relaxed!
When we had all introduced ourselves, Mr Meng said, “Well done, everyone! I know this isn’t easy for many of you. ___120___ this is just the kind of thing you are going to face at senior high. ___121___ like this might sometimes put you under pressure. But it all ___122___ what you do. Keep calm and be prepared. That way, you’ll make the best of your time at senior high.”
People say, “Well begun, half done.” I guess this was a good ____123____ to my new school life.
