Today I went to Sam's school in the UK. It was really different from my school in China.
Girls wore grey skirts and white shirts, boys wore grey trousers, and everyone wore the school tie.
Some of Sam's lessons were a bit strange for me. We were reading Shakespeare in the English lesson, and there were quite some old words like "thou" and "thee" to mean "you". In history we studied 20th Century China. It was strange hearing a foreign side of history--- and hearing English people trying to say all our Chinese names!
Classes were also a lot more relaxing than in China. Teachers were called "sir" or "miss", everyone shouted answers and raised their hands in classes. It was more like a debate than a class.
A bell rang at the end of each lesson and everyone jumped up to go to the next class.
At break we bought potato chips and cookies in the dining room. Lunch was later than in China at 1 o'clock. We had big plates of pie with carrots. For dessert there was hot sweet rice called rice pudding.
It was good that I'd had an excellent lunch, because at Sam's school Monday afternoons are taken up with sports.
I played my first game of netball— a bit like basketball, but with some differences. Luckily I'd had a quick look in the rule book before I tried to join in
the game.
( )6. Paragraph 2 shows that _______.
A. They wear uniforms in Sam's school
B. lessons are different between schools in China and the UK
C. there is a break of 30 minutes every day in the school
D. sports take up much lime in Sam's school
( )7. The underlined word "debate" ill Paragraph 4 means ____ .
A. fight
B. exam
C. discussion
D. suggestion
( )8. What do they have for lunch at Sam's school'?
A. Pie and hot sweet rice.
B. Potato chips
C. Cookies.
D. Carrots.
( )9. What class do Sam have on Monday afternoon?
A. Maths
B. History
C. PE
D. Music
( ) 10. What's the best title for the passage?
A. Relaxed classes in the UK
B. Clothes, food and sports in a UK school
C. Strange lessons in Sam's school
D. A day in Sam's school

My ideal school life
Everyone has their own ideal school. I think my ideal school life is mean ingful and colorful. I’m very happy to study in the school.
We have five classes every day. I like all the lessons, because the lessons are very interesting. And we can choose our favorite lessons to learn. At noon, we have an hour’s rest time. During the rest time, we can chat with each other.
I hope our after-school activities are rich and colorful. We can play many ball games after school every day. There are many organizations and clubs in our school. I would like to join in the organizations which I am interested in. I would like to join many clubs, too. Of course, if you want to live in the school, you can do it. Most of the students like staying in school ,because the school is very comfortable.
Doing homework is part of the school life, but the work is not much, and very easy. We often use e-mails to send our homework to the teacher. Our teachers and classmates are very helpful and kind. If you have a problem, you can ask the teacher and classmates, they will help you. During my holidays, I want to be volunteer to help others in need.
In a word, my ideal school is like this. I hope my dream will come true one day.。
