I have been in Limoges for a month now.since living here, I have tried to integrate(融合) into the local community and one way I have found to do this is by following the local rugby team.
I decided to look for information on the local rugby team after the tourism office could not help me.I searched for the club office online and decided to look into it.The following day I went back to the club after speaking with them and decided to get a season ticket for the rest of my stay here.I will now be going to each home game as well as travelling to the away games with the team and the fans.I am sure that it is going to be a great experience during my time abroad here.I will also be travelling through various regions of France so I will be visiting new places throughout the season.There is another team in a town called Brive not so far away who play in the top league in France, but I decided to stay local.I may go and see them with other assistants if possible during our stay.
I witnessed a friendly match on Saturday when they played Stade Dijon in the division below them.The match finished 70-12.After the match, both teams went to the club house to see the Rugby World Cup semi-final between New Zealand and Australia.Both teams respected each others which is something you don’t always see in other sports.I spoke to the president of the club after the game and he told me, “This is a family club.” Hopefully this year will be a good year for Limoges.

The revision period is, arguably, the most difficult part of any exam process.The exam itself–usually between one and three hours. 1. However, the knowledge that it is the culmination of the entire process should provide some comfort.A well-structured revision plan can help you revise well.Below are my top tips for creating a well-structured and comprehensive revision plan, which will provide the best chance of success in the summer.
1. 2.
It ought to go without saying that planning your revision timetable must be done before anything else, to ensure there is enough time for comprehensive coverage of all subjects.With most exams starting at the end of June, the revision plan should be in place by the end of March at least.
2.Continual assessment
3. In order to chart (跟踪记录) your development effectively, we recommend that our students attempt practice papers in each subject, marked according to the relevant mark scheme and curriculum.
3.Order your subjects strategically
4. Ordering your subjects in an effective manner can help to do this.For example, scheduling English revision to appear early in your revision plan may provide useful when revising essay-based subjects such as History, Religious Studies and Politics later on.
4.Each subject is different
Depending on your learning style, you may find one easier than the other.More unusual exam types, such as performance exams, require their own unique attention. 5.
A.Besides, your time allocation (分配) may be dependent on your own aptitude in that subject.
B.Make a detailed timetable
C.Pressure and nerves can undoubtedly make it an uncomfortable experience.
D.Revision is a process of improvement.
E.Plan early
F.Starting with a subject that appears early on in the exam schedule is a wise decision.
G.The best revision plans have an element of strategy to their creation.
