12.Nearly half of elementary and high schools in the US use the Presidential Fitness Test.It checks kids'fitness levels.Students are tested at least twice a year.In 1956,US President Eisenhower created the test,and it has been a tradition in schools since 1966.There are five activities in the test:sit-ups(仰卧起坐),push-ups(俯卧撑),sit and reach,endurance run or walk and shuttle run(折返跑).Students who get scores at or above 85percent on all the activities can get a Presidential Physical Fitness Award.
The test encourages students to live a healthy and active life.Students taking the test are really testing their limits.
China has a similar test:the physical education(PE) test.Beginning at the age of 7,students in China are tested twice a year to check if they are healthy and strong.They also finish activities like the endurance run,sit-ups and the shuttle run.
However,unlike students in the US who get awards,Chinese students get points in PE tests.The highest score is 100.For junior school students,the PE test is more important because it is worth 30to 40points in the entrance exam for senior high school.In order to get a good score,most students begin to prepare for the test in their junior one year.
