新的校园生活开始
等待我勇敢面临挑战的一天终于到来。爸爸和我搭乘校车来到了新学校。当我站在学校的大楼前,我几乎难以相信一切。即使是在梦里,我也从未想过自己长大后会有一天来到一个美国学校上学。当我走进大楼的时候,我大吃一惊。这里的学生穿着打扮酷极了,创意极了。他们中的一些竟然在如此寒冷的冬天穿短袖体恤!他们拥有着迥异的头型:卷发,直发,长发,短发,秃顶而且五颜六色。他们并没有具体的关于外观和穿着的规定,这是学校很有趣的一部分。我上楼后来到自己的储物柜,小柜子看上去像个保险箱。打开以前,我需要转动数字钮输入密码才能打开。离开储物柜后,我被前一天接待我们的接待员引领着进入了我第一节课的课堂。
当我进入课堂时,他们已经开始上课了。科学课老师是一个棕黑色皮肤的女士。当我站在前面的时候,她拉着我的手,并向全班介绍我。她让大家向我给予欢迎,学生们热情地鼓起掌来,对我说:“嗨,Vivian。”他们很友好。最后,老师向我指了一个空座位,我便坐了下来。教室对于其中的学生数来说是很宽敞的——大约三十人。教室由教学区和实验区两部分组成。我想课本里的知识点还是很简单的——他们一直在谈论物态变化和基本物理问题,一些我大约一年前就接触过的理论。对我来说最困难的是化学部分,因为我还没有在中国学习过。这里的科学课既包括物理,又包括化学。我想语言应该不是一个大问题,因为我能理解大部分老师所解释的内容。根据课程表介绍,我想她就是Ms.Secrist。不论怎样,她是一个很友好的女士。很快第一节课就上完了,Ms.Secrist叫了一个名为Kelly的女生帮忙把我送到下堂课的上课教室。她是个白人女孩,并叫我给她看我的课程表。很快,她便帮我找到了教室,我感谢了她。
It was ELL.Everyone has gone to the library.I was taken there soon as well.There I met the assistant of the ELL teacher“Ms Lyons”,a young and beautiful lady.She guided me to the computers telling me a lot about how to use a computer here such as how to save a file in my own folder in such an English windows system in patience.I also met my next period teacher“Mrs.Bunnell”.After the second period over,an Asian looked boy came to me saying that he was asked to help me by the teachers.He was a Chinese who came from shanghai. He has been here for almost a trimester.He told me that all the subjects here were easy consoling me not to worry about the study here.We got to the ELS ELD classroom soon,and he was in this class too.ELL and ESL are both English courses open for foreign student.ESL,however,is much harder than ELL.There are many foreign students: blacks,whites and Asians.I had a good time in this class.
The last period was algebra 1.The boy who came from shanghai told me that the course was too easy recommending a more challenging one for me.I refused at last.The teacher was glad to see me again assigning me with a seat in the classroom.There was a quiz.I got all my problems solved correctly and quickly.As I saw the American students beside me still frowned and confused,I giggled a little.As time went on,it was my lunchtime.Lunchtime was divided into A,B and C in order to offer enough room for students to eat.I was divided in to C time, the latest one with the most students.I was taken there by the shanghai boy,eventually getting my lunch after a long time's queuing.I ate a kind of mixture with beef and potato chips together.I also had salad and a bottle of milk.The milk was really cool causing me a little stomachache.There,I also met a senior girl who came from Taiwan.She took the same American study class as I.After lunch,she took me to my next period,which was study hall where I can do my homework and some readings.I took out my history book.There were so many new vocabularies for me,and I could hardly understand them.After 53 minutes'class,I finally finished some readings.When I got out of the classroom,the Taiwanese girl had been waiting for me.She then took me to the American study classroom.
这是一节ELL。所有的人都去了图书馆。我很快也被带到了那里。在那里,我见到了ELL助理老师Ms.Lyons。她很年轻漂亮。她带着我来到了电脑前,并教我如何使用,比如怎样在一个英文操作系统中把文件保存到自己的文件夹中。在那里,我也同样见到了下一节英语课的实习老师“Ms.Bunnell”。第二节课过后,一个亚洲模样的男孩走了过来,对我说他是老师叫来帮我的。原来他来自中国上海。他来这里已经有一个学期之久了。他告诉我这里的课程大都很简单,安慰我不要为了这里的学习而担心。我们接下来来到了ESL ELD课的教室,他也在上这门课。ELL和ESL都是为外国学生开设的英语学习课,但能感觉出ESL要比ELL难。大家习惯把两门课都统一称为ESL。这里有很多外国学生,我上得很开心。
上午最后一节课是代数一。来自上海的男孩说那门课极为简单,并且推荐我上一个难一些的。最后,我还是谢绝了他的好意。老师再次看到我很高兴,很快为我安排了个座位。刚好有个课堂测验。我将所有的问题正确解答后,看到旁边的美国学生还有在皱着眉头一脸迷惑相,我笑了一下。时间一点点过去,午饭时间到了。午饭时间被分成了ABC三种时间。我被分到了C时间,最晚的一种,也是学生数最多的一种。我被上海的男孩领到了那里,我经过了很长时间的排队终于拿到了午餐。我吃了一种牛肉和土豆混合物,还吃了沙拉,喝了牛奶。这里的牛奶真的很凉,喝完后竟然导致了胃疼。在那里,我还见到了一个三年级的台湾女孩。她刚好和我上同一门历史。午餐后,她带着我来到了自习教室,在这里我可以做作业或者看书。我拿出历史书,才发现有那么多生词不认识,几乎无法理解课文。53分钟的自习结束了,我好不容易读完一些材料。当我走出教室时,发现那个台湾女孩已经在等我,她带着我来到美国历史教室。
She told me that this subject was kind of hard.The teacher was also considerably strict.When I got to the classroom,the teacher was sitting at the door.He managed me to sit next to the Taiwanese girl.During the class,I was almost confused by all the words the teacher said. The simple and strong voice showed his strictness.However he truly got a good sense of humor.Laughers in class echoed through the hallway. Although I couldn't fully understand him,his funny gestures and creative word smade me laugh too.
她告诉我这门课是有一定难度的,老师要求也比较严。当我到达教室时,发现老师就坐在门口。他安排我坐在台湾女孩的旁边。上课时,我被他的许多用词搞得晕头转向。简短而有力的声音体现出这门课程要求的严格。但是,他的确很有幽默感。课堂的笑声可以响彻整个走廊。尽管我不能完全理解他的话,但是他风趣的手势和创意的词汇常常也可以让我忍俊不禁。
The last lesson for me was geometry.It was taught by the same teacher in the same classroom as algebra 1.There was also a quiz which seemed harder compared to the algebra quiz I had this morning.I finished school at 3:13.It was an interesting day,wasn't it?I thought with sweet smile with relaxation back at home that day.
最后一节课是几何。老师和教室和代数一课程一样。课上也有一个测验,但比起代数似乎要难一些。3:13我的校园第一天就结束了。看,很有趣的一天,是吧?那天回到家后我回想着。
