題目列表(包括答案和解析)
話題鏈接:中國中學生崇尚在發展自己興趣愛好的同時,還要勤奮學習,為將來上一所好的大學努力拼搏。那么,對于遠在大洋彼岸的美國中學生來說,他們的生活是否和我們相同呢?他們是否也和我們一樣在為上一所好大學而“一心只讀圣賢書”呢?
As a student,you must want to know something about American high school students.In fact, just like in China, in the United States, high school is usually divided into two parts, one is called “junior high school” and the other is “senior high school”.
In China, children enjoy free education of nine years, but in the United States, the students enjoy free education until they are eighteen years old.As a result of the free education system, American children have little difficulty in going to senior high school.
American high school students can take part in a lot of activities outside the classroom, such as joining a music group or a sports team.Certainly, just like students in China, American students have to work hard in order to get good marks if they want to go to a good university.They don’t specialize(專攻)in any special subjects, and they take classes in all kinds of subjects all through the high school time.And those who come out with low marks at the end of a school year and who are supposed to stay a grade are often allowed to go on to the next grade.
In American high schools, there is fighting or hurting or other kinds of bad behavior(行為).So children who want to go to universities are often sent to suburban(郊外的)high schools, where most students aim at going to good universities and the atmosphere(氣氛)is quite different.
Peter is a Grade One student in high school, and he has a part time job in a restaurant.He washes dishes on Saturdays and Sundays from 8∶00 a.m.until 4∶00 p.m.He can earn $5.50 an hour.He saves almost all the money he can get because he wants to go to a good university.The cost goes up every year in universities.Of course, He has to spend some money when he goes out on Saturday nights.
Jane is a student in high school.She is in Grade Two.She has a job as a cashier(收銀員)in a shop.The job pays well-about $6.75 an hour.On weekdays, she works every night after school from 4∶00 until 8∶00.So she has no time for homework, and her grades aren’t very good this year.But she has to work, or she can’t buy nice clothes and can’t go out on Saturday nights.Also, her car costs a lot of money.
Lucy is a new student in a university.She finds a part time job and works in a law office for three hours every weekday afternoon.She does office work, like putting away papers and letters,for $8.25 an hour.The job gives her a good chance to learn things because she wants to be a lawyer someday.But she doesn’t want to work every term.She needs time to study.
美國的孩子自幼崇尚獨立,成人以后,大都不愿依靠父母來養活自己了。憑著自己的勞動換來的收入,很多學生不但能自己支付上學的各種費用,而且還可以養車、娛樂、買時髦衣服呢!讀讀他們的日常生活安排,你有什么感觸呢?
When an earthquake hit a small town,many houses fell down.After the earthquake,all the newspapers reported many stories about some of the families who were in trouble.
One Sunday,when I was reading a newspaper,a special picture touched me.It gave the clothing sizes of each family member.I thought that this would be a good chance to teach my children to help those who were less lucky than themselves.I said to my seven?year?old twins,Brad and Brett,and three?year?old Meghan,“We have so much,and these poor people now have nothing.We’ll share what we have with them.”
I filled a box with foods and clothes.While I was doing this,I encouraged the boys to choose their toys and donate some of their less favourite things.Meghan watched quietly as the boys took out their old toys and games and put them together.Then she walked away.A few minutes later she came back with Lucy,her much?loved doll.She put the doll on top of the other toys.“Oh,dear,”I said.“You don’t have to give Lucy.You love her so much.”Meghan said,“Lucy makes me happy,Mommy.Maybe she’ll make another little girl happy, too.”
I looked at Meghan for a long moment.She taught me a lesson.It’s easy to give something that we don’t want any more,but hard to give what we cherish(珍愛),isn’t it?
