So children who wan

37、t to go to university are often sent to suburban high schools, where most students aim at going to university and the atmosphere is quite different. Chinese students are much safer than those in America. S2: In China, secondary education is divided into academic secondary education and specialized /

38、vocational / technical secondary education. Vocational schools offer programs ranging from two to four years and train medium-level skilled workers, farmers, and managerial and technical personnel.

39、ls for Skilled Workers” typically train Junior Middle school graduates for positions requiring production and operation skills. The time of training is typically three years.S3: There are great differences between Chinese and American middle schools. In China, the schools pay much attention to culti

40、vating good habit and ability of independent study. The school offers morning reading and evening self-study time, during which teachers are asked to guide them.

41、shes at 3:00 pm.S4: In China, the designation of “key school” exists for selected schools at every level: elementary, secondary and higher. In addition, there are various levels of the “key” designation itself: There are national key institutions; provincial or municipal key institutions, and county

42、 or district key institutions. Key schools all enjoy priority funding as well as the privilege of recruiting the best students.

43、formal category of schools has emerged: the so-called “elite schools.” These non-governmental schools with state-of-the-art facilities often charge astronomical tuition fees and cater primarily to children of the new and wealthy entrepreneurial class in China. “Elite schools” exist at all levels of

44、education, from kindergarten to higher education. There are also a lot of private schools, and parents have to pay for them. The cost is $ 5,000-$ 10,000 a year.S6: In America, since the students spend a lot of time participating in various activities, school becomes the center of social life for st

45、udents. They not only go to school to study the material presented in class, but they also meet together to socialize and to pursue their interests. But Chinese students have less time to take part in all kinds of activities. They concentrate on learning the main subjects, such as Chinese, maths, En

46、glish and so on.S7: In fact, high school in the United States is usually divided into two periods the first two or three years is called “Junior High school” and the other is “Senior High school” Its similar to China.S8: In China, children enjoy free education of nine years, but in the United States
