American school begins(开始) in September after a long summer holiday(暑假). There are two terms(学期) in a school year: the first term is from September to January, and the second is from February to June. Most American children begin to go to school when they are five years old. Most(大部分) students are seventeen or eighteen years old when they finish(完成) high school(高中). High school students take only(只选学) four or five subjects(科目) each(每一个) term.
They usually go to the same (相同的) classes every day, and they have homework for every class. After class they do many interesting things. After high school, many students go to college (大学). They can go to a small one or a large one. They usually have to give a lot of money(钱). So many college students work(工作) after class to get the money for their studies. |
