Dear Bruce,

Thanks for your email—good to hear from you. I’m looking forward to the exchange（交流）, too!

Anyway, about the ___1___ and things. The school here isn’t very ___2___ about most things, but there are a few things you need to know. First of all— ___3___ . You can wear what you want, ___4___ you can’t wear jeans（牛仔裤）with holes in them. You should ___5___ comfortable things. And it’ll be cold when you’re here so you’d better bring some ___6___ clothes.

The school’s pretty strict about phones—of course you can ___7___ them, but you have to ___8___ the phones and keep them in a place as you are required before class. You can’t just put them on silent, right? And you can bring ___9___ to school but you must eat it outside during the break. If it’s raining, you can eat in the classroom.

In short, it’s a good school and the teachers are kind. You really don’t have to worry about anything here. Hope my advice is ___10___ to you. Write again soon, OK? And tell me if there’s anything else you need to know.

Yours,

Saral
