I was very happy with the school hours in Britain because school starts around 9 a.m. and ends about 3:30 p.m. This means I could get up an hou

2、r later than usual, as school in China begin before 8 a.m.在英國上了一年的中學(xué)對(duì)我來說是一段非常令人愉快和興奮的經(jīng)歷。我很滿意英國的上學(xué)時(shí)間，因?yàn)槟抢锸谴蠹s 9點(diǎn)開始上學(xué)，下午3： 30放學(xué)，這意味著我可以比平常晚起床一個(gè)小時(shí)，因?yàn)樵谥袊?8 點(diǎn)之前就開始上課了。On the first day, all of the new students attended an assembly in the school hall. I sat next to a girl whose name was Diana. We soon becam

3、e best friends. During the assembly, the headmaster told us about the rules of the school. He also told us that the best way to earn respect was to devote ourselves to study and achieve high grades. This sounded like my school in China. 在第一天，所有新生在學(xué)校禮堂集合，我坐在一個(gè)叫做戴安娜的女孩旁邊，我們很快就成 為了好朋友。在集合期間，校長告訴我們關(guān)于學(xué)校的

4、規(guī)章制度，他還告訴我們，在學(xué)校要 想贏得別人的尊重，最好的方法就是努力學(xué)習(xí)，取得高分，這一點(diǎn)聽起來跟中國的學(xué)校差 不多。I had many teachers in the past year. Mr Heywood, my class teacher, was very helpful. My favourite teacher was Miss Burke -I loved the lessons that she gave in English Literature. In our class there were 28 students. This is about the avera

5、ge size for British schools. We had to move to different classrooms for different classes. We also had different students in some classes, so it was a struggle for me to remember all the faces and names.在過去的一年里，我有很多的老師，黑伍德先生，也就是我的班主任，對(duì)我很有幫助；我最喜歡的老師是伯爾克小姐，我喜歡她教的英國文學(xué)課。在我們班有28 個(gè)同學(xué)，這差不多是英國學(xué)校的平均班額。我們?cè)诓煌?/p>

6、教室上不同的課，上某些課的時(shí)候，班上的同學(xué)也不一樣，所以對(duì)我來說記住所有人的面孔和名字是一件難事。I found that the homework was not as heavy as what I used to get in my old school. However, it was a bit challenging for me at first, because all the homework was in English. I felt lucky, as all my teachers gave me much encouragement and I enjoyed al

7、l my subjects: English, History, English Literature, Computer Science, Maths, Science, PE, Art, Cooking and French.我發(fā)現(xiàn)這里布置的家庭作業(yè)不像我以前在原來學(xué)校時(shí)那么繁重，可是一開始我還是覺得有點(diǎn)挑戰(zhàn)性，因?yàn)樗械淖鳂I(yè)都是英文的。讓我感到幸運(yùn)的是，所有老師都給了我極大的鼓勵(lì)，也喜歡所學(xué)的科目：英語、歷史、英國文學(xué)，計(jì)算機(jī)，數(shù)學(xué)、科學(xué)、體育、藝術(shù)、烹 飪和法語。My English improved a lot, as I used English every day and spe

8、nt an hour each day reading English books in the library. I usually went to the Computer Club during the lunch break, so I could send e-mails to my family and friends back home for free. I also had an extra French class on Tuesday evenings. Cooking was really fun as I learnt how to buy, prepare and

9、cook food. At the end of term we held a class party and we all had to cook something. I was glad that all my classmates were fond of the cake that I made.我的英語提高了很多，因?yàn)槲颐刻於际褂糜⒄Z而且我每天花一小時(shí)在圖書館看英語書，我經(jīng)常在中午休息的時(shí)候去計(jì)算機(jī)俱樂部，這樣我就可以免費(fèi)給國內(nèi)你的家人和朋友發(fā)郵件了。我還在每周二的晚上有一節(jié)法語課，烹飪課也很有趣，因?yàn)槲铱梢詫W(xué)到如何購買、準(zhǔn)備和烹飪食物，在學(xué)期末，我們有舉行班級(jí)聚會(huì)，我們都需要做一

10、些食物，讓我很高興的 是我同學(xué)都很喜歡我做的蛋糕。Students at that school have to study Maths, English and Science, but can stop studying some subjects if they do not like them, for example, History and French. They can choose other subjects like Art and Computer Science, or languages such as Spanish and German. In the Art

11、class that I took, I made a small sculpture. Though it did not look very beautiful when it was finished, I still liked it very much.那里的學(xué)生必須要學(xué)數(shù)學(xué)、英語和科學(xué)，但是可以不學(xué)一些他們不喜歡的科目，例如歷史和法語。他們可以選擇像藝術(shù)和計(jì)算機(jī)技術(shù)等課程，或者像西班牙語和德語等語言類課程。在我修的藝術(shù)課上，我做了一個(gè)雕塑，盡管它完成時(shí)看起來不是很漂亮，但我仍然很喜歡它。I missed Chinese food a lot at lunch. British fo

12、od is very different. British people like eating dessert at the end of their main meal. After lunch, we usually played on the school field. Sometimes I played football with the boys. Sometimes I just relaxed under a tree or sat on the grass.在吃中餐的時(shí)候，我就很想念中國菜；應(yīng)該食物很不一樣，英國人在他們的正餐后喜歡吃甜點(diǎn)。中餐后，我們經(jīng)常在學(xué)校的操場上玩耍

13、，有時(shí)我和男孩子們一起踢足球，有時(shí)，我就在樹下或坐在草地上放松一下。I was very lucky to experience this different way of life. I look back on my time in the UK with satisfaction, and I really hope to go back and study in Manchester again.我很慶幸體驗(yàn)到這種不同的生活方式，回顧我在英國度過的時(shí)光，我感到很滿意，我也很希望再回到曼徹斯特學(xué)習(xí)。Project我們學(xué)校有一個(gè)廣播俱樂部。這個(gè)俱樂部的非常之處在于它是由學(xué)生們自己為學(xué)校創(chuàng)辦

14、的。我很幸運(yùn)地成了其中的一名主持人。廣播俱樂部是兩年前創(chuàng)立的。有一天，我萌發(fā)了為大家播放音樂的念頭，于是我就問校長能否在休息時(shí)間給同學(xué)們播放音樂，校長同意了。兩年后，我作為元老負(fù)責(zé)校廣播俱樂部的工作。我們的俱樂部現(xiàn)在不只是播放音樂。每天早上我們向同學(xué)們播報(bào)天氣情況和時(shí)事新聞，還有老師們要我們播出的一些特別告示。到了考試的時(shí)候我們就會(huì)做一檔特別節(jié)目，告訴學(xué)生們復(fù)習(xí)迎考的注意事項(xiàng)。每當(dāng)學(xué)年結(jié)束的時(shí)候，許多即將畢業(yè)離校的學(xué)生就會(huì)借助我們的廣播俱樂部向他們的好友和老師留下畢業(yè)致辭。每逢家長來訪、與老師交談的時(shí)候，我們常常播放一些由學(xué)生們自己演唱的歌曲。我們還會(huì)廣播一些通知，告訴家長們有關(guān)諸如遠(yuǎn)足、校內(nèi)

15、戲劇表演之類的活動(dòng)訊息：畢業(yè)后，我會(huì)想念廣播俱樂部的，但我知道，沒有我，它還會(huì)繼續(xù)辦下去的。（凱特瓊斯）我們的校內(nèi)俱樂部“下一代詩人”是由我們的英語老師歐文先生發(fā)起的一個(gè)文學(xué)俱樂部。每個(gè)月的最后一個(gè)星期五我們會(huì)聚在一起討論喜愛的詩歌和詩人。聚會(huì)的時(shí)候，我們首先挑選出我們喜愛的詩歌，然后朗誦這些詩歌。我們還在聚會(huì)時(shí)討論詩歌。我第一次參加聚會(huì)的時(shí)候，被要求寫一首詩，還得當(dāng)著俱樂部成員的面進(jìn)行朗誦。起初我覺得有些緊張，但所有的成員都是那么親切、支好，我很快就不擔(dān)心了。有一次，我在學(xué)校花園里朗誦了一首表現(xiàn)大自然的詩歌。朗誦前我選擇了一棵老樹，把大家都聚集在樹下。俱樂部成員們都說那是他們聽過的最好的詩歌

29、ifferent, yet the same. Life never seems to be going fast enough; yet, in other ways, like a race car, life seems to be rushing too fast and even going out of control. Has anyone else ever felt this way? 很多青少年感到孤獨(dú)，好像沒有人理解他們以及他們正在經(jīng)歷的變化。日子一天天過去，而所有事情似 乎都是不同的，可又都是一成不變的。生活似乎從不過得足夠快；而從別的方面看，生活似乎過得太快 甚至于失

And, though it may sometimes be difficult to believe, you are not alone every adult has gone through adolescence, and your friends are going through it right now along with you. It is commo

31、n for teenagers to feel lonely and misunderstood. These feelings can be thought of as growing pains - the difficulties that teenagers face as they grow to adults. 這些感覺是青春期介于孩童和成人之間的人生階段的正常組成部分。而且，雖然有時(shí)難以相 信，并非只有你才是這樣每一個(gè)成年人都經(jīng)歷過青春期，而你的朋友和你一樣正經(jīng)歷這個(gè)階段。對(duì) 青少年而言，感到孤獨(dú)和被誤解是很普遍的。這些情感可以看作是成長的煩惱是青少年邁向成年時(shí) 所面對(duì)的困難。A

32、s teenagers grow, it is normal for them to become confused with the changing world both inside and outside of them. During adolescence, teenagers go through great physical changes. They grow taller and their voices get deeper, among many other developments.在青少年成長的時(shí)候，對(duì)自己無論體內(nèi)還是體外的狀態(tài)變化感到困惑對(duì)他們而言是正?，F(xiàn)象。在青

33、春 期，青少年經(jīng)歷著身體上的巨大變化。他們個(gè)子長高，聲音變低，還有很多其他的成長發(fā)育。Along with these physical changes, there come many psychological changes. Boys and girls tend to be different in this regard. Many boys become risk-takers - they want to find their own limits and the limits of the world around them, but may not have the wis

34、dom to make good choices in their behavior. At the same time, girls often want someone anyone - to talk to, as they try to deal with their strong feelings.與這些生理變化同時(shí)而來的，還有很多心理上的變化。男孩和女孩在這方面往往有所不同。很多男孩成 為危險(xiǎn)嘗試者他們希望找到自己的局限和他們周邊世界的局限，但也許并不具有對(duì)其行為作出正確 抉擇的智慧。而與此同時(shí)，女孩則通常需要和某個(gè)人或任何人進(jìn)行交談，因?yàn)樗齻冊(cè)噲D面對(duì)自己強(qiáng) 烈的情感。In the

35、 social world, as teenagers get older, they struggle to depend on themselves. They may badly want and need their parents love, yet feel distant; they may want to be part of the group, yet desire independence. Since teenagers have difficulty balancing these needs, they often question who they are and

36、 how they fit in society.在大千社會(huì)中，隨著青少年長大，他們努力地自力更生。他們或許迫切需要父母的關(guān)愛，卻又感覺疏 遠(yuǎn)；他們或許想要成為團(tuán)體的一員，但又渴望獨(dú)立。正因?yàn)榍嗌倌陚冊(cè)谄胶膺@些需要時(shí)有困難，所以他 們經(jīng)常質(zhì)疑自己到底是誰以及怎樣融入社會(huì)。The good news is that these kinds of growing pains do not last.
