England is to the west of China, many things in England are different from those in the east. In England, children start school at five years old. This is called a primary school. There are usually 25 children in a class with one teacher to teach them.
When the children are 11 years old, they go to secondary school. They stay at this school till they are 16 or 18 years old. The children have different teachers for different subjects. Most children usually stay at school for lunch cooked by the school. Some children take sandwiches and drinks from home. We call this a packed lunch.
Children in England go to school five days a week. Their school day usually starts at 9:00 a. m. and finishes at 3:00 in the afternoon.
Children at primary school don’t usually have homework. When they start their secondary school, they often have homework. Especially when they are studying for their exams at the age of 16 years old, they usually have a lot of homework.
英國在中國的西方,英國的許多東西都和東方的不一樣。在英國孩子們五歲開始上學,這稱為上小學。一般情況下,一個班上有25個學生和一個老師。
孩子到了11歲就上中學了。他們讀中學一直到16歲或18歲。每門功課都有不同的老師。大多數學生都在學校吃午餐。也有的學生從家里帶三明治和飲料。我們稱這個為自備午餐。
英國的孩子們每周上五天學。他們上午九點開始上課,下午三點放學。
小學的學生一般都沒有家庭作業。當他們上中學的時候開始有家庭作業,尤其是在16歲時準備考試的時候就有比較多的家庭作業了。
