Question

    Classes in American schools are smaller than ours. Most classes have no more than thirty students. Most students in the US don’t wear school uniforms (校服). In American school, students have classes for six hours. Their classes are English writing, math, history, science, PE, music and art. They don’t have group exercises each day. If they see our exercises, they would think we were very strange!

American students don’t have to worry about passing exams all the time, so they can spend time in and out of school doing things they enjoy. They do different things for fun, like playing sports, making music or surfing the Web.

Many American teachers think that just studying hard isn’t enough to make a good student. They encourage students to become well-rounded (成熟的) by trying lots of different things.
