我的学校生活
MY SCHOOL LIFE

How fortunate I was admitted to this school! The teachers are learned and conscientious in their teachings. They take great pains to make us learn our lessons. They pay much attention to our home work. Above all, they live and work together with us. In this school there is no distinct barrier at all between teachers and students.

The lessons here are not so easy as in my former school, however. We have English composition every week. We read Charles Dickens’s “David Copper field” as our text. The teacher gives explanations and questions all in English. We have to prepare our lessons Beforehand.

As for Chinese, we read more writings in the literary style than before. Some passages of classics are assigned to us for supplementary readings. We have to write reports for the supplementary work as well as a composition every week. Most of us are keeping diaries in order to practice writing Chinese.

Our school lays great emphasis on physical training. It is not like those schools which train a few champions but neglect the well-being of the great majority of students. Our school requires every student to take part in the games. One student should take at least one kind of game. Besides, there are morning exercises held every day. A sound mind in a sound body is the motto of our school.

我获准进这间学校读书，真是多么幸运呀！老师们都是饱学的，教书认真。他们费了许多心力，使我们读会我们的功课。他们对我们的课余作业很注意。尤要的，他们跟我们生活与工作在一起，在这间学校中，老师与学生间，全没有明显的界限。

不过，这里的功课并不像我以前的学校那么容易。我们每星期有英文作文，我们读狄更司的《大卫哥伯非尔》，作为课本。教师全用英语讲解及发问，我们须先准备好功课。

关于中文，我们现在比从前读更多的文言文。有些古典文，指定为我们作补充读物。我们每星期要写出补充读物的报告及一篇作文。我们大多数人都记有日记，以便练习写中文。

我们的学校，对体育特别注重。并不像那些学校只在训练一些冠军人才，而忽略大多数学生的福利。我们学校要每个学生参加运动。一个学生至少要参加一项球类。此外，每天还有早操。健全心智寓於健全身体。是我们学校的格言。
