I was born in a town called Blackburn, in the northwest of England, and lived there till I left home 1 the age of eighteen. My parents had moved to England from India during 2 1970s.
As a child, I went to my local school and, of course 3 (speak) English with a local accent. But home was very different: we lived in a kind of “little India”, with a huge extended family of uncles and aunts. I remember 4 (feel) part of this big thing called “family”, and an even 5 (big) thing called “India”. I suppose my family 6 (real) influenced me while I was growing up. They used to talk about India as “home”—even 7 at that time I had never been there!
To me, it doesn’t seem at all strange to grow up as part of two cultures. I am always thinking that growing up with two cultures is a gift, not a 8 (advantage). Now as a mother, I want my child 9 (get) in contact(接触) with her Indian roots too, so we are planning to visit there later this year. All her Indian 10 (cousin) are expecting to meet her!
