VI. 阅读理解
Most summer school courses in Britain last (持续) for two to four weeks. During that time, the students live either with a British family or at the school or in a hotel. They have about fifteen hours of lessons every Monday to Friday — usually in the mornings. Each school has a lot of different courses. Some are for beginners and others are for intermediate (中级水平的) or advanced students. The lessons are interesting, the classes are small and the teachers are all from English-speaking countries.
But summer school students don’t just speak English in the classroom. They’re in Britain, so they speak and read and hear it outside, too. That’s why they learn so quickly and why a summer school course is really a holiday. Only one third of each course is taught in the classroom, and the rest takes place during a busy afternoon and evening timetable (时间表) of visits, sports and games. These activities help everyone to make new friends, have fun and improve their English.

[A] Courses in sports.
