Task 1: In your opinion, what are some things a student can do to deal with homesickness.
In my opinion, there are two ways students could do to overcome homesickness. Firstly, one could call back home to have a long talk with his or her parents. Since he or she could hear the voice from his or her beloved ones, I think he or she will feel so much better emotionally. Moreover, homesickness could be relieved by developing one’s own social circle in a newplace. You know, if one feels lonely, he or she must have no friends around. Thus,one could take the initiative to meet friends like attending some club activities at schools, joining the sports team and so on. Once the circle is formed, homesickness would be gone.

How to Cope with Homesickness
Many university students, particularly during their first year, experience distress about being separated from family and community. “Homesickness” is anormal part of college students’ development toward adulthood. Suchfeelings should be acknowledged and accepted, even whenuncomfortable. Lonely feelings can tell you to recognize certain needs andto figure out constructive ways to satisfy them.
Whileyou may be tempted to “escape” by moving back home, a certain amount of enduring and working through such feelings helps you grow into maturity. For instance, while a visit home may help you feel more nurtured and connected, if you come home every weekend, then you are probably missing out on opportunities to cultivate a social life and sense of belonging at university. Therefore,one way to help yourself is by balancing emotional support with encouragement to develop your life on campus. No matter how isolated you feel,loneliness will lessen or disappear if you actively seek out opportunities to make new friends and develop and express your interests.
