In almost every big university in the U.S.A, football is a favorite sport. American football is not like soccer. Players sometimes kick (踢)the ball, but they also throw(丢,投) the ball and run with it. They try to take it to the other end of the field. They have four chances to move the ball ten yards(码). They can carry it or throw it. If they move it to the other end of the field, They have got six points. This is called a touch-down.(底线得分)

It is difficult to move the ball. Eleven men on the team try to stop the man who has the ball. If the man does not move the ball ten yards, his team kicks the ball to the other team.

Every university wants its team to win. A lot of people come to watch. They all yell(喊加油) for their favorite team. Young men and women called cheerleaders(拉拉队长) to come to help the people to yell more.

Every team plays ten or eleven games each season which begins in September and ends in November. If a team is very good, it may play another game after the season ends.

American schools are quite different from those in China. In America, at the beginning of the term, students must select their subjects and teachers first.

Selecting is very important for your marks in America. So at the first term, don't select too many subjects, or you'll feel very nervous and tired. Then you have to ask for some teaching plans. There is some information about subjects, timetables, marks and textbooks. At the same time, you must choose the teachers. Different teachers have different teaching methods. If the teacher is called "killer" by the last grade, many students will give up choosing him, because this kind of teacher will leave too much homework, too many exams and give too low grades

There is another thing after you select the subjects and the teachers. How to buy textbooks makes each student feel hard. The textbooks in America are very expensive. Each one is about$30-50. In order to save money, many students buy some used textbooks, and some students usually borrow textbooks from the school library.

In class, discussing is very important. The teacher encourages you to ask questions or show your own opinions. They don't usually ask you to sit well. Instead, they allow you to sit or stand everywhere you like.
