The following text is for number 1 - 6.

I recently moved to another town. I was very anxious on the first day
at school because I didn’t know anyone. I went to the classroom and
entered the room. While I was entering the room, I felt that everybody’s
eyes were on me. I became even more anxious then. Fortunately, Mrs.
Dian, the civic teacher, was right behind me. She greeted me and
introduced me to the class. It turned out that my classmates were friendly.
They showed me around and helped me get to know the school. At the
end of the day, I was less and less anxious. I will always remember my
first day at my school.

Here is my unforgettable experience. One day I joined a story telling contest. Two of my
friends and I had been chosen to take a part in the final round at the district level. I was very

taught me pronunciation, facial expression and gestures. One day, before performing, my friends
and I were busy to prepare the props and costumes for the competition. Thing that made me sad
was my teacher rented the props and costumes for my friends but not for me.
My two friends had beautiful costumes and luxurious props. Although I just wore the simple
ones, I performed my best to win the competition. The competition started. I got number 29 and
my friends got number 5 and 10. I was nervous but I showed my best performance on stage. Lots
of people took photos and videos of me.
Finally, anxiety was gone after I had finished performing. And then, the announcement came
