Going to a new school can be difficult, but this passage will help you in the beginning. Here is something to help you to fit in(融入).

First, take a day to enjoy your school. You won’t fit in at school if you don’t know the school. Ask for a school map. Try to get to know every corner of your new school. A good school handhook can be of great help. But to make it easy, ask the people near you where something is—tell people that you are new when you need help.

Be nice to everyone. Be nice to everyone, the young or the old, because they might just be your next teacher or friend.

Get to know your teachers and pay attention in class. Teachers always pay attention to(关注) new students, Talk to them and find out more about them. Never test their limits(底线)—don’t go too far, or you may end up getting into trouhle（麻烦）

You need to make friends. Talk to different people. Be yourself and don’t lie. This is YOUR school now, take a chance(机会) on being who you weren’t at your old school. Join a few clubs or sports teams and make more friends in this way.

Be yourself and be polite. Don’t worry too much about what people think of you. Be true, be yourself, and be nice to everyone, no matter how mean(unfriendly) they may seem at first. It’s often the “girl/boy that I did’t like at my new school” that ends up being my friend after a little while. But then again, don’t be afraid to stand up for yourself if it’s very clear that you should.

Work hard to fit in while still being yourself. The first few weeks are always hard, but you’ll soon get used to it.

If you plan to take your pet on a trip，prepare ahead of time. At least two weeks before you leave，take your pet to a vet. See if he or she is tit for travel and ask if he or she should have any medicine before leaving. The vet may suggest certain pills for sickness or for calming the pet.

Some states or foreign countries have health laws that say animals must have certain injections(注射)before they can be allowed to enter. Your vet may have this information. You can also get help on the United States and Canadian laws from a book published by the Department of Agriculture which some libraries have. For information on foreign countries， check with their consulates (领事馆).You can also ask the airlines on which you are travelling.

Find out if the places where you plan to stay allow pets because many do not.

If you are going by plane or train，ask if pets are allowed. If they are，ask where they will be kept and who will care for them. The big bus lines in this country do not allow pets.

Choose your pet’s box carefully. Plastic boxes are better than cardboard or wooden ones because they can' be chewed(嚼碎).

If going by plane or train during warm weather，try to go in the cooler early morning or evening hours. Also try to avoid (避免)very cold winter weather because pets often suffer from cold. Even in your own car， be careful. Do not leave the animal inside with the windows closed because the car may become too hot or too cold.
