Applying (申请) to colleges in America
One of a high school student's most important tasks is to get into college. Applying to colleges usually
begins in a student's last year at high school, but preparations bgein much earlier.
Each high school has at least one special college counselor (顾问) to help students apply to colleges.
In public schools, there are about five hundred to a thousand students who have a counselor, but in private
schools, there are usually no more than forty students to every counselor.
Starting in ninth grade, students have to work hard to get good grades. Colleges lookat all the student's
high school grades, so they are very important. Sometimes, a student can be rejected (拒绝) by a college
just because of poor grades a few years ago.
In eleventh grade, students begin to take many national tests. Most tests happen a few times a year, and
students can take them as many times as thay want. Colleges only ask for scores from the SAT test
(学业水平测试), which have three subjects-math, reading and writing. However, many students choose
to take other tests as well. These other tests help to show colleges how good a student is.
In class, students try to behave well for the teachers. Most colleges ask students to have two
recommendation letters (推荐信) from two teachers. Because of this, it is important for students to have
teachers who like them.
Besides work in the classroom, colleges also think about what the student does outside of school. Students
can join the school and, or write for the school newspaper. Others play on school sports teams. There are
many things for everyone to do, and colleges think it is important to accept students who do things other than
school work.
After working for so many years, students sendapplication to colleges in the middle of their last year of
high school. A few months later, colleges mail their decisions out.

| BEIJING (AP)-The government is teaching the people "the right way to spit." A college teaches students the right way to sit. Two years before holding the Olympic Games, people across Beijing are on and all-out drive to mind their behavior. Visitors are often surprised to see people in China spit phlegm onto the ground. Changing all that before the 2008 Summer Games is "important in providing a cultural and historical legacy to the world for China," said Beijing city official Zhang Huiguang. "We will work with newspapers, radio stations, TV stations, the Internet and mobile telephones to teach people the right way to spit, said Zhang. Zhang said her office is organizing a "behavioral training" activity that teaches people to line up for buses and turning off mobile phones during meetings. But spitting is the most serious problem. "You have to spit into a piece of paper or a bag, and then put it into a dustbin," she explained. Zhang said her office has organized a small group of volunteers who are going to Beijing's streets to hand out small "spit bags". "Public spitters already face fines up to 50 yuan (about $ 7 Cdn)," Zhang said. Others are taking a softer way. Lu-chin was born near Beijing, married an American and spent 10 years in the U.S. She said her heart sank when she and her family returned to live in her homeland and she saw the spitting, littering and cutting in line. It caused her to start the Pride Institute, a private group that showing the great pleasure of being more polite. "I'm trying to wake up a sense of decency. I know it's there. I saw our beautiful scenery covered with plastic bags. Sometimes I think I'm the first one to see this and say, 'Why do you treat our country like a dustbin?' I'm just trying to wake them up and show them they can stop the bad behavior." Still others are trying to improve things in a far more traditional way. "All of China is looking forward to the Olympics," said Zhang Hui, head of training at the Beijing Courtesy College. "It's really important to improve courtesy before the Games", Zhang said. "Everyone knows how to walk, stand and sit," she said. "But we teach them how to do it in a good way." That means things like sitting, back straight, on the "front one-third" of a chair, she said, "Women sit with their knees and feet together. Men may sit with their feet slightly apart. If you cross your legs, you keep the toe of your lifted foot pointing downward." "Every day we teach the students about Confucius and Laozi. Every country has a basis for its culture." she said. "Confucius and Laozi are our country's basis."
