I was exciting and nervous to start a new adventure abroad. Therefore, the excitement started to fade after small number of weeks. Homesickness started to be set in, But I started to change after meeting some new friends and have a good time with them. We shared our view on many things, ate together and visited new places as a group. I suppose we should never forgot how important it is to have good people in their life. They can make such a different. To travel and visit other places is one of the best things you can do in life. My advice from my experience are to travel and try new things whenever you get the opportunity.

Hannah 5. (play) the violin since she was eight. For her project, she asked a simple question: Does a high-cost violin produce 6. (good) music than an inexpensive one? To answer that, she turned to math, which she used to compare the tones 7. (produce) by different instruments.
The teen recorded the same notes on her smart phone as she played on different violins. Computer software then switched those recorded 8. ( sound) into graphs. This is the same sort of software that scientists use to analyze the songs of birds and whales. Hannah used these graphs to assess each violin's overall sound quality.
9.average, each of the eight most expensive violins that Hannah tested cost more than $8,000. The cheapest 16 averaged just a bit more than $ 1,250 each. Maybe it's no surprise, but the costliest instruments tended to produce better tones, Hannah found. Yet some low cost instruments sounded 10.(near) as good as the pricey violins.

Have you ever gotten the feeling that a person you were friends with had a hidden schedule or simply couldn't care about your thoughts and opinions? Trying to tell the difference between someone who is genuine and someone who is faking (虚伪) it can be as confusing as trying to tell the difference between a work of art and a well-made copy.1. Read the advice of the following signs of fake people to determine which of your relationships is worth seriously investing in.
They only respect those in positions of power. When it comes to respect, most would agree that everyone is deserving of this sentiment. Yet, fake people have a tendency to only respect people in power. Watch out for people who aren't respectful of everyone around them.2.
3. Only those who lack real quality feel the need to criticize others to keep up appearances. Sincere individuals would rather admire and praise others, while fakers may be quick to put others down in name of making themselves look better.
They make promises they can't keep. A genuine person will do their best to live up to promises and commitments, but a fake person may talk the talk without walking the walk.4.
They're only nice if there's something in it for them.5. In comparison, genuine people are just that genuine. They're nice and helpful no matter what circumstances.
Keep an eye out for these signs of fake people and make room for more meaningful, genuine relationships in your life.
A.If not, they may be faking it.
B.They work hard to build any relationship.
C.They put others down in order to look good.
D.But thanks to some advice, the former doesn't have to be.
E.In comparison, a genuine person knows when to let others shine.
F.A fake person is one who only shows kindness when it benefits them.
G.Fake people easily make commitments, but rarely follow through on them.
