Have you ever wondered what an American high school and its students are really like?

A typical (典型的) American high school has several large buildings and enough s 1. for about 1,500 students. Every student is given a locker. When students first arrive at school, they go straight to their lockers to put away or get their textbooks and to hang up their outdoor clothes. As American textbooks are e 2. , students would rather borrow than buy them. Students must pay back if they lose any of them.

American students have different types of school t 3. . They usually take a yellow school bus or walk to school if they live close enough. Sometimes their parents drive them to school. When they turn 16 years of age, most take a free driving class at school for one term. If students earn passing grades in the class and also pass their state driver’s exam, they can begin driving t 4. to school.

Each day, students take six or seven classes. They must take science, maths, English and social studies. They can choose art, homemaking, fashion design and other classes. In some schools students are required to take one or more of the following special classes: health education, physical education or foreign language studies. Students m 5. to different classrooms for each subject. This is because each teacher has their own classroom. There is a short break between classes, to give the students the time to hurry to their next class.

The r 6. school day usually ends early in the afternoon. After school more than half of the students are busy going for after-school activities. These activities include sports―especially football, basketball, baseball and soccer or c 7. , such as yearbook, speech, school newspaper, photograph or student government. Students feel relaxed and pleased when they take part in them.
