We think that life in Chinese high school is an adventure in which we have to survive mountains of homework and exams. Yet would it be (surprise) if I tell you that high school life in the US is almost as stressful and demanding as it is in China?
In US high school, everything (record) and graded, including your grades on quizzes, tests and final examinations. Failing (turn) in your homework on time will directly affect your grade for a certain course. Perhaps contrary to we used to think of the US high school students, they pay great attention to their (academy) performance to try to get into distinguished universities.,they'll be disappointed after graduation from high school.
Like university students, US high school students have the (free) to choose the courses that most interest (they).Even a 9th-grader can sit the same classroom as 12th-graders.But this also means he or she has to work very hard, because the teacher will not treat him or her differently just because he or she is a few years (young).
