Have you ever wondered what an American high school is really like?This article will describe a typical (典型的) high school and its students.
A typical American high school has several large buildings and enough space for about 1,500 students.Every student is given a locker.When students first arrive at school,they go straight to their lockers to put away or get their textbooks and to hang up their outdoor clothes.As American textbooks are expensive,students would rather loan(租借) than buy them.Students must pay back if they lost any of them.
American students have different types of school transport.They usually take a yellow school bus or walk to school if they live close enough.Sometimes their parents drive them to school.When they turn 16 years of age,most take a free driving class at school for one term.If students earn passing grades in the class and also pass their state driver's exam,they can begin driving themselves to school.
Each day,students take six or seven classes.They must take science,math,English and social studies.They can choose art,homemaking,fashion design and other classes.In some schools students are required to take one or more of the following special classes:health education,physical education or foreign language studies.Students move to different classrooms for each subject.This is because each teacher has their own classroom.There is a five-minute break between classes,to give the students the time to hurry to their next class.
The regular school day usually ends early in the afternoon.After school more than half of the students are involved in after-school activities.These activities include sports-especially football,basketball,baseball and soccer or clubs,such as yearbook,speech,school newspaper,photograph or student government.

  • 菁優(yōu)網(wǎng)3.In Britain.Boxing Day is usually celebrated on December 26th,which is the following day after Christmas Day.However,strictly speaking.Boxing Day is the first weekday after Christmas.Like Christmas Day.Boxing Day sing a public holiday.This means it's a non-working day in the whole of Britain.When Boxing Day falls on a Saturday or Sunday,the following Monday is the public holiday.
       The exact origin(起源)of the holiday is unclear.One of the thoughts is that during the Middle Ages,when great sailing ships were setting off to discover new land,a Christmas Box was placed by a priest (神父)on each ship.Those sailors who wanted to ensure a safe return would drop money into the box.It was sealed up and kept on board until the ship came home safely.Then the box was handed over to the priest in the exchange for the saying of a Mass of thanks for the success of the sailing.The priest wouldn't open it to share the contents with the poor until Christmas.
        One more thought is about the"Alms Box"placed in every church on Christmas Day.Worshippers (做禮拜的人)put gifts for the poor into it.These boxes were always opened the day after Christmas,that is why that day became know as Boxing Day.
