"36. 1) connection 2) contact  3) relation 4) bond   Living with a host family   Moving to a foreign country is an amazing, life-changing experience. It’s an opportunity to meet new people, immerse yourself in a different culture and possibly learn another language. However, before 30________ off on such an adventure, there are some practical decisions that need to be made.    Will you stay 31________ your own apartment where you can have your own space and privacy? Will you share a flat with other young foreigners who are in a similar position to you? Or will you choose to live with a host family? For me, choosing to live with a French family was the best choice I 32________ .   Firstly, a family can show you 33________ the city or town and help you settle in, stopping you from feeling lonely and overwhelmed. My host family were wonderful and welcoming; they showed me which buses to get 34________ , cooked dinner for me so we could eat together, and took me with them on trips to the beach, the theatre and even a bullfight.    Moreover, living with French people has been brilliant for helping me improve my language skills. My host family are happy to answer my questions and correct me when I 35________ things wrong, which makes me a better and more confident French speaker. Finally, the experience of living abroad is one that you will remember forever, and perhaps the friendships – like the memories – will also last. Your host family might become your friends for life. You might return for their birthdays, weddings, holidays, and much more. I hope to remain in 36________ with my host family long after I leave France."
