    If you travel or go abroad, it's necessary to mix with the locals. This allows you {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (put) your language skills to the test and find out more about the local culture. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (live) abroad for a long time, I've put together {#blank#}3{#/blank#} list of tips to help you make friends in a foreign country.

    Firstly, say yes to everything (within reason). Obviously, if you don't feel {#blank#}4{#/blank#}ease, you can choose not to do something. However, don't put off trying something new. The group of students from your class who invite you out for a coffee might end up {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (be) your friends for life!

    Secondly, find a hobby or try something {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (entire) new. Join a dance class, a walking club, or learn to cook the local food—the possibilities are endless!

    Thirdly, get out of the house! Hours {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (spend) in front of a computer with family and friends back home surely make you even more homesick. Make the most of the new and exciting place you live in.

    Lastly, don't be a wallflower. When surrounded by people speaking an unfamiliar language, you may feel it difficult to be {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (confidence) and involve {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (you) in conversations. Even so try to make your voice heard. It's very likely {#blank#}10{#/blank#} you will find everyone wants to know everything about you.

    It used to be common to see US teenagers busy at fast-food restaurants cooking burgers and {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (clean) tables, especially during the summer vacation. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}, the scene is becoming less common.

    Instead of finding summer jobs, many US teenagers are spending {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (they) free time taking classes. According to The Atlantic, this change partly results {#blank#}4{#/blank#} the low teen earnings paying little toward the costs of college. For many students who are going to attend college, the money from summer jobs doesn't live up to their {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (expect) at all. Meanwhile, US teenagers' increasing interest in education {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (account) for this as well. They go to summer school to learn {#blank#}7{#/blank#} they might not have time for after they leave school, which {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (consider) as a wise choice.

    Despite this, a summer job is still believed to benefit teenagers. Early work experience is {#blank#}9{#/blank#} human activity that develops people's social skills. When kids are working, they gradually gain {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (practice) knowledge and understanding of the labor market.
