Text A

I live in Canada now, but I was born in Ireland and lived there until I was 15. Although it was quiet there, I was happy. Things are completely different in Vancouver where we live now. The people are nice, but they aren’t as friendly as they were in Ireland. When we first arrived I found it quite strange that when I said hello to someone in the street they said nothing. My school is much bigger. There are 40 students in a class. I found that difficult at first, but it’s starting to feel normal. The noise seemed very strange when we arrived. We lived in a quiet village before,but Vancouver is a very noisy city though I find that quite exciting now.

Example:

I was used to living in a quiet place.

  2. I __________________________ big classes.
  3. Vancouver is a noisy city, but I ____________________________ now.
