Exiles
I can’t say I really feel at home anywhere. I was born in a city, but I hate cities. I love mountains,
but I have Q1____________ lived in a mountain country: my home is a flat agricultural area in the
south of England which I find boring. I don’t have much in Q2____________ with the local people
there, and my way of life is very Q3____________ from theirs, so I don’t feel that I am really part
of the community. Although I am English, in some ways I don’t feel English. I have spent time in
various countries, and I can happily live abroad for a period. Not for ever, though. In the end I
always begin to feel too foreign, and miss too many things. It is then that I realize that my
Q4____________ really are in England, even if I can’t say exactly where. I don’t have very
Q5____________ family ties, and I am not in contact with many of my relatives. My Canadian
wife has a much stronger sense of family, which she has passed to our son. His home and his
immediate family mean a great deal to him, and his extended family is very important to him as
well. He is very fond of all his Q6____________, and likes to see them as often as he can. So
perhaps the next generation will have more ties than I have. In some ways I hope so, but being
rootless has advantage too. On balance, I am not sure that I would prefer to Q7____________ to
one place, one community and one set of ideas.
Q1. A) always
B) ever
C) never
D) usually
