Dear Li Kang,
How's it going?I thought I'd write to tell you about the American school system.Secondary school in the US usually covers seven years,grades six to twelve.Ninth to twelfth grades are high school.At the end of twelfth grade,American students receive the high school diploma.Students need a high school diploma if they want to go to college.
親愛(ài)的李康,
最近過(guò)得怎樣?我這次寫信是來(lái)告訴你美國(guó)這里的學(xué)校教育體制.美國(guó)的中學(xué)教育通常都包含7年,從六年級(jí)到十二年級(jí).而九年級(jí)到十二年級(jí)則是屬于高中部分.到了十二年級(jí)末,美國(guó)學(xué)生就會(huì)收到高中畢業(yè)證書.如果學(xué)生們想要繼續(xù)上大學(xué),就需要這張高中畢業(yè)證書了.
The school year is divided into two semesters,the first of which is September through December,and the second January through May.We have a LONG summer vacation!We start school at 7:50 am and we finish at 3 pm.
一個(gè)學(xué)年分成兩個(gè)學(xué)期,第一個(gè)學(xué)期從9月持續(xù)到12月,第二個(gè)學(xué)期是從1月到5月.我們可是有一個(gè)很長(zhǎng)很長(zhǎng)的暑假哦!我們從早上7:50開始下課,在下午3點(diǎn)下課放學(xué).
I take part in all kinds of after—school activities—I play football,basketball,volleyball,table tennis and I go to theater club.我會(huì)參加所有的課外活動(dòng)：踢足球、打籃球、打排球、打網(wǎng)球,我還會(huì)參加戲劇社.
Will you tell me something about your summer vacation and the Chinese school system in your next letter?希望你能在下封信中告訴我你的暑假過(guò)得怎么樣,并談?wù)勚袊?guó)的教育制度.
