school life in America

• Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind; it is not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips and supple knees; it is a matter of the will, a quality of the imagination, a vigor of the emotions; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life. Youth means a tempera-mental predominance of courage over timidity, of the appetite for adventure over the love of ease. This often exists in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20. Nobody grows old merely by a number of years. We grow old by deserting our ideals. Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. Worry, fear, self-distrust bows the heart and turns the spring back to dust.
• Whether 60 or 16, there is in every human being’s heart the lure of wonder, the unfailing childlike appetite of what’s next and the joy of the game of living. In the center of your heart and my heart there is a wireless station: so long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, cheer, courage and power from men and from the Infinite, so long are you young. When the aerials are down, and your spirit is covered with snows of cynicism and the ice of pessimism, then you are grown old, even at 20, but as long as your aerials are up, to catch waves of optimism, there is hope you may die young at 80.

People always say he is the most optimistic one in the world. “I am not afraid of difficulties and I am strong enough.”(3)Walt DisneyAnd I think except these four roles, there are many other cartoon roles. However, do you know the founder of Disney Company? Can you guess who he is?It was founded by Walt Disney and his brother Roy as Walt Disney Productions in 1929.He started with his creative, came into the world of Hollywood, when the film is still black and white. His first cartoon is【Alice day at sea】.In 1927, Walt Disney has finally hit a popular cartoon character [Lucky Rabbit],and then won a lot of response.But this movie hearted Disney so much. , especially in the taste of betrayal!

Gabriella's voice is clear, great treble. Ryan I appreciate very much a role, not artificial voice, singing school songs for singing RAP, R & B, what would be the ideal. Sharpay's voice, of course, very artificial, you compare her to speak and sing to know. All in all, at the beginning of the first paragraph of the quartet I really had a beautiful, as if Nature, when singing their grasp of eye contact is also in place.

She has a conflict. Her mother, Mrs. Caryle (Joan Cusack), teaches in a local Connecticut college and is quite aware that her daughter is a physics geek with straight A's in a subject in which everyone I know was lucky to get C's. She has a chance to use her brain to get a full scholarship to Harvard, but her mother's dream is not Casey's. The personable, otherwise malleable Casey is as excellent a figure skater as she is a budding physicist and wants to postpone her physics ambitions to train for the Olympics to be held in 2006. This conflict provides most of the tension in this G-rated movie, which has a targeted audience of girls between the ages of, say, ten to eighteen.Despite the presumed audience for "Ice Princess," Fywell's feature, however formulaic, can find a paying crowd of people of any age and both genders, largely because the acting is so good and even more, because the characters are painted in shades of gray rather than black or white. No one in the story is all bad, and though there are no villains, each character is flawed.Casey's problem is that she expends too much effort dealing with her conflict. Though she's about to graduate from high school, she's still a mama's girl, always on the verge of giving up her dream simply because her mother insists that there's but an eight-year shelf life for figure skaters. Mrs. Carlyle's weakness is that while she recognizes and applauds her daughter's accomplishments in science, she is so deaf to Casey's own wishes that she does not attend the young woman's training sessions and seems intent on ignoring Casey's performance in an all-important competition. Tina Harwood (Kim Cattrall), who is Casey's coach and a good one at that who insists that her students fall in line at the rink at 5:30 each morning, is at an opposite pole from Mrs. Carlyle. She pushes her own daughter, Gen (Hayden Panettiere), to practice compulsively on the rink, deaf to hints that the girl wants to be just a regular teen eager to chuck skating altogether.

采访美国学生学校生活的作文英语

采访美国学生学校生活的作文英语全文共3篇示例，供读者参考篇1Student Life in America: An InterviewAs an international student, I've always been curious about what life is really like for students in the United States. Sure, we see glimpses of it in movies and TV shows, but those rarely tell the full story. That's why when I had the chance to interview Jessica, an American high school senior, I jumped at the opportunity. Jessica agreed to give me an inside look at her daily routine, extracurricular activities, social life, and everything in between. Here's what she had to say:The Daily GrindJessica's day starts pretty early, with her alarm going off at 6:30 am. After getting ready, she hops on the school bus around 7:15 for the half-hour ride to her high school in the suburbs. Classes begin at 8 am, and she typically has six or seven periods covering core subjects like English, math, science, and history, as well as electives."The classes themselves aren't too bad," Jessica says. "But the workload can really pile up, especially with all the homework, projects, and studying for tests." She estimates spending 2-3 hours per night on schoolwork.Lunchtime is a welcome break around noon, giving Jessica a chance to catch up with friends and recharge for the afternoon periods. The school day wraps up around 3 pm, though Jessica often stays later for extracurricular activities or sports practice.After-School ActivitiesLike many American students, Jessica is involved in a number of after-school clubs and sports. She's a member of the student council, the environmental club, and the yearbook committee. On top of that, she plays varsity soccer in the fall and runs track in the spring."It's a lot to juggle, but being involved really enhances the whole high school experience," she explains. "The clubs and sports teams are where I've made some of my closest friends."Jessica says game days and big events like homecoming, prom, and graduation are always highlights of the school year. She'll never forget the feeling of leading her soccer team to the state championship game as team captain her junior year.Social SceneOf course, life as a high schooler isn't all work and extracurriculars. Jessica still finds time to hang out with her friends, even if it's just grabbing dinner at the mall or having a movie night."We're all pretty busy, so just being able to relax and spend quality time together is important," she says. "Though I'm definitely guilty of staying up too late scrolling through social media some nights!"Like many teens, Jessica can't wait for the freedom and independence that come with being in college. But she also recognizes that her high school years have been some of the most fun, carefree times of her life so far.Preparing for the FutureOf course, the latter half of high school also involves a heavy focus on preparing for college and life after graduation. Jessica has spent countless hours studying for the SAT, filling out applications, writing essays, and weighing her options for potential schools and majors."It's a really stressful process, but I also feel lucky to have so many great choices available to me," she says. "My parents havebeen extremely supportive, but they've also pushed me to take ownership of this next chapter."Jessica hopes to eventually become a marketing professional, so she's leaning toward pursuing a business degree, perhaps with a minor in communications or public relations. She's still waiting to hear back from a couple of her top college choices.Overall PerspectiveWhen I ask Jessica to sum up her overall experience of being a student in America so far, she takes a moment to collect her thoughts."I'd say it's been a total whirlwind – a awesome, stressful, challenging, rewarding, life-changing whirlwind," she begins. "There have definitely been times when I've felt overwhelmed by all the demands on my plate. But I've also grown so much, not just academically, but as a person.""High school really forces you to master skills like time management, perseverance, leadership, and finding balance," Jessica continues. "You're constantly being pulled in different directions between school, activities, social life, family obligations, and bigger decisions about your future. It's a crazyfour years, but I've made incredible memories and friendships that I know will last a lifetime.""Would I trade this experience for anything? Not a chance. The craziness has all been 100% worth it."As Jessica's interview reinforces, being a high school student in America is no easy task. The academic demands are rigorous, the extracurricular commitments are time-consuming, and the pressure to plan for the future can be immense. But Jessica's perspective also showcases the incredible personal growth, unforgettable experiences, and lifelong lessons that emerge from embracing the challenges head-on. Her words have given me an authentic glimpse into the life of an American student –the good, the bad, and everything in between.篇2My Interview with an American High School StudentFor our English class assignment, we had to interview someone from a different culture about their daily life and school experience. I was really excited because I got to interview Alex, an American exchange student studying at my high school in Shanghai for a semester. Alex had been in China for almost threemonths at the time of our interview, so he had a good grasp of what life is like for a typical American high school student.I met Alex at a local cafe after classes one afternoon. After exchanging some pleasantries, I dove right into my questions, curious to learn all about the life of an American teenager. Here's a recap of our conversation:Me: Can you start by telling me what a typical day is like for you back home in the United States?Alex: Sure, no problem. Well, I'm usually up around 6:30am to get ready for school. I'll grab a quick breakfast, like some cereal or a granola bar, and then either walk or get a ride to school depending on the weather. Classes normally start around 8am.Me: How many classes do you take each day and what are they like?Alex: At my high school, we have six class periods per day, each around 50 minutes long. The classes I take are typically core subjects like Math, Science, English, Social Studies/History, plus an elective or two. The electives I chose were Spanish and Art. Class sizes are usually around 20-30 students.The classes themselves are a mix of lectures from teachers, doing work from our textbooks, participating in discussions, and working on projects either individually or in groups. We'll also have tests every few weeks to evaluate what we've learned.Me: That sounds quite intense! What do you do between classes?Alex: We get 5 minute breaks between each class period where we can use the restrooms, go to our lockers, hang out with friends, etc. We also have a longer lunch period, usually around 30-40 minutes in the middle of the day.At lunch, most students either pack a lunch from home or buy food from the school cafeteria. They have stuff like pizza, burgers, sandwiches and salads. After eating, we can hang out in the cafeteria or outside if it's nice out and socialize until the next class starts.Me: And what happens after your last class finishes for the day?Alex: Depending on the day, I may have an extracurricular activity like sports practice, band rehearsal, or a club meeting after school. On days I don't have anything scheduled, I'll usuallygo home, take a break, and start on any homework I have for a few hours.In the evenings, I'll eat dinner with my family, which gives me a chance to relax and recharge. Then I may finish up any remaining homework, watch some TV or play video games for fun. I try to get to bed around 10 or 11pm so I can be well-rested for the next school day.Me: Do you get homework every night from all your classes?Alex: Yeah, pretty much. Each class will assign homework almost every day, whether it's reading assignments, worksheets, essays, or studying for upcoming tests. Weekends are the only real break we get from new homework, but you usually have leftovers from the week to catch up on.Me: Wow, that's a lot of work! What do you do to de-stress and have fun?Alex: Well as I mentioned, I play sports and am involved in some clubs at school, which are great ways to hang out with friends, be active, and take my mind off of academics for awhile. I'm on the soccer team and in the drama club back home.I also make sure to schedule time to just relax, listen to music, play video games, or go to the movies with friends on weekends.It's all about finding that school/life balance so you don't get burnt out from too much work.Me: That definitely sounds like a lot to juggle! Before we wrap up, is there anything about American schools that you think is really different from what students here in China experience?Alex: Yes, actually a few things come to mind. First, American schools tend to have a lot more extracurricular options like sports teams, academic clubs, art programs, etc. There's a huge emphasis on exploring interests outside of just academics.Second, the school experience in America is very social and collaborative, with lots of group work and activities designed to build teamwork skills. The classroom dynamic is often very interactive and informal compared to how I've observed classes here.Lastly, American schools have a pretty strong "work hard, play hard" mentality. Students are expected to take tough course loads and get very involved in extracurriculars, but they're also encouraged to cut loose and have fun on weekends and over breaks without parents badgering them about academics 24/7.Me: Very insightful! Well thank you so much for taking the time to share your perspective, Alex. I have a much betterappreciation now for what life is like as an American high school student.Alex: Of course, I'm happy I could give you an inside look! Let me know if you have any other questions.This wrapped up my interview with the American exchange student, Alex. While the academic demands and workloads sounded incredibly intense, I also got the sense that American high schools emphasize balance, creativity, and buildingwell-rounded skillsets for life after school.Hearing directly from Alex made me realize how fortunate American students are to have so many opportunities for exploring extracurricular interests, developing critical thinking skills through interactive classrooms, and navigating the social aspects of school life.At the same time, the expectations to juggle rigorous academics with a slew of other commitments means students really have to learn self-discipline, time management, and prioritization at a relatively young age. There are certainly pros and cons to the American high school experience.Overall, this interview was extremely valuable in broadening my perspective. While our education systems may differ, I thinkstudents around the world ultimately share the same core goals – working hard to gain knowledge, discovering passions, and making unforgettable memories during those pivotal teenage years.篇3Student Life in America: An InterviewWhat's it really like being a student in the United States? To find out, I interviewed my friend Jake, an American high school senior, about his daily experiences and perspectives on school life. Here's what he had to say:On a Typical School DayMy day usually starts around 6:30am. I'll get up, take a shower, get dressed, and head downstairs for a quick breakfast - maybe a bowl of cereal or a protein bar if I'm running late. Then I'm out the door by 7:15 to catch the school bus.School officially starts at 8am, but I like to get there a little early to meet up with friends before first period. We'll hang out in the courtyard or cafeteria and chat about what's new. The first bell rings at 7:55, giving us 5 minutes to get to our lockers and go to our first class.My schedule this semester is pretty typical - I have core classes like English, History, Math, and Science, plus an elective like Spanish or Art. Classes are around 50 minutes each with a few minutes in between for passing period. We usually have some kind of homework or reading every night to prepare for the next day's lessons.Lunch period is definitely a highlight! It's from 12:15-12:55, which gives us a solid 40 minutes to eat and relax. Most students get food from the cafeteria line, which has healthier options like salads and sandwiches alongside kid favorites like pizza, burgers, and fries. We can also bring food from home if we want. The lunch room has long tables where friends tend to sit together and socialize.After the academic day ends at 3pm, lots of students participate in after-school activities. There are tons of options including sports teams, academic clubs, volunteer programs, music/arts groups, and more. Games and meetings usually run until 4:30 or 5pm. Students either get picked up by parents or ride an activities bus home.Once home, there are a few hours in the evening for homework, chores, having a job, or just hanging out. My homework load varies, but I'd estimate I spend 2-3 hours pernight between written assignments, test prep, projects, etc. I try to get everything done earlier so I can go to bed by 11pm to be well-rested for the next day.The Social SceneThe social aspect of high school is a huge part of the experience. Making friends and finding your social circles is so important. For me, I have a core group of buddies that I've known since middle school, but I'm always meeting new people through classes, clubs, teams, etc.Lots of socializing happens before and after school, at lunchtime, or in between classes. We'll chat about our weekends, make plans to hang out, or just goof off together. Having that face-to-face time to bond and connect is really valuable.Of course, social media plays a big role too. We're constantly sharing memes, videos, and posts on Instagram, SnapChat, TikTok, etc. It's a way to keep up with each other's lives and inside jokes even outside of school hours. Group chats are also super active for making plans and discussing random thoughts or homework questions.High school definitely has its own social hierarchy and unwritten rules about different cliques or groups. You have yourjocks, preppies, art/theater kids, gamers, and everything in between. There can be some tensions or rivalry between the different crowds, but it's not as intense as movies make it seem. Most friend groups intermingle pretty easily, especially by senior year when we're all a bit more mature.As for dating, some students date seriously but many stick to more casual relationships in high school. Things like homecoming, prom, and dances are a big deal for couples or friends who want to go together. But you'll find people with all sorts of romantic interests and situations - singles, couples, LGBTQ+ students, etc.Academics and Preparing for CollegeAcademics are a huge emphasis in American high schools, especially when it comes to preparing students for college or future careers. The curriculum is pretty standardized with required classes in core subjects to make sure everyone has a solid base of knowledge and skills.That said, there's definitely a wide range of academic performance. You have students who are at the very top of their class, taking multiple AP (Advanced Placement) classes to aim for the best colleges. At the other end, you have kids who struggle and may need extra tutoring or remediation. And the majorityfall somewhere in between - getting mostly good grades with some subjects that are tougher for them.For college-bound students like me, we spend a ton of time in junior and senior year on the application process. That includes entrance exams like the SAT or ACT, writing personal essays, getting letters of recommendation from teachers, and putting together a resume highlighting our academic and extracurricular achievements. The application process is intense, especially if you're aiming for highly competitive schools.We also look for ways to make our applications stand out by pursuing leadership roles in clubs, athletic teams, volunteering, or getting a job. Basically, colleges want to see that you're a well-rounded person beyond just academics.Sports, Clubs, and School SpiritOne of the best parts of American high schools is the huge variety of sports teams, clubs, and activities available. Practically any interest you can name likely has a dedicated group for it. And if not, it's pretty easy to start a new club if you can rally some friends around the idea.For sports, the most popular options are football, basketball, baseball/softball, soccer, volleyball, swimming, lacrosse, tennis,track & field, and the like. The teams are split into varsity, junior varsity, and sometimes freshman levels based on skill and competition. Being a student-athlete is a huge source of pride and the sports teams generate a lot of school spirit.We go all-out for our sports team spirit - donning face paint, colored shirts or wigs, making signs, etc. The entire student body gets hyped for big rivalry games against other schools. And our mascot gets everyone fired up with traditions like special chants or dances. It creates an electrifying atmosphere in the stands!Beyond sports, you'll find clubs dedicated to topics like anime, robotics, video games, guitar, LGBTQ+, language/cultures, and much more. These tend to be student-led but overseen by a faculty advisor. The goal is to build community around shared interests, as well as provide leadership and event planning opportunities.Performing arts are also huge. The theater program puts on big musical productions, and we have different choirs, orchestras, and bands for musicians. Art students showcase their work throughout the building or in dedicated gallery nights. These programs give creative students a way to pursue their passion while bringing stunning shows and artwork to the whole school.Lastly, you have quirky annual events like homecoming week, spirit week, student-faculty games, talent shows, dances, and more. We get really into dressing up, competing in silly games or competitions, all to up the energy and school unity. It's a way to take a break from regular academics and just have some fun!Overall ExperienceLooking back on my four years, I've had a really positive high school experience overall. It's been a huge period of personal growth, self-discovery, and making lifelong friendships and memories. Of course, it hasn't all been easy - there have been academic stresses, friendship drama, figuring out my identity, and all the usual teenage angst. But I've been fortunate to be part of a community that supports students in pursuing their interests and passions both in and out of the classroom.Sure, I'll be happy to move on to college and the next stage of life. But I know I'll look back at high school as a formative time that really shaped who I am today. The lessons I've learned, challenges I've overcome, and opportunities I've had to explore my potential have prepared me well for the future. So while it hasn't been perfect, my overall experience in the American high school system has been an incredible journey so far!。

中美高中教育差异英语作文

中美高中教育差异英语作文Differences Between Chinese and American High School Education。

High school education is an important stage in the academic journey of students all around the world. However, the approach to high school education in China and America differs significantly. In this essay, we will explore the differences between Chinese and American high school education.First and foremost, one of the key differences between Chinese and American high school education lies in the teaching methods. In China, the education system is largely based on rote learning and memorization. Students are expected to memorize vast amounts of information and regurgitate it during exams. On the other hand, in America, the emphasis is on critical thinking, creativity, and problem-solving skills. Teachers encourage students tothink outside the box, ask questions, and engage indiscussions.Another significant difference between Chinese and American high school education is the level of competition. In China, there is intense competition among students to excel academically and secure a spot in a prestigious university. This pressure often leads to high levels of stress and anxiety among students. In contrast, in America, the focus is more on individual growth and development. Students are encouraged to pursue their interests and passions, rather than just focusing on academic achievements.Furthermore, the structure of the high schoolcurriculum also differs between China and America. In China, the curriculum is standardized and students are required to study a set number of subjects. There is little room for customization or flexibility. In America, on the other hand, students have more freedom to choose their courses andtailor their education to their interests and career goals. This allows students to explore a wide range of subjectsand develop a well-rounded education.In addition, extracurricular activities play adifferent role in high school education in China and America. In China, extracurricular activities are often seen as a distraction from academics and are not given much importance. In America, however, extracurricular activities are an integral part of the high school experience. Students are encouraged to participate in sports, clubs, and community service activities to develop leadership skills, teamwork, and social skills.In conclusion, Chinese and American high school education have their own strengths and weaknesses. While the Chinese education system emphasizes academic excellence and discipline, the American education system focuses on creativity and individuality.
