接待来到Kiity在加拿大的第十期。这一次，Kitty又请来了一位客人，一位上高中的小哥哥，也是一位本地的华人孩子，他会给各人先容一下加拿大高中的环境。听起来，和中国差异照旧很大的呢。
Hi guys, it’s Kitty in Canada and welcome to the Article of this week.
Today we have another special guest with us. He came here when he was in grade 6 and now is in grade 9 which is the first year of high school. In Canada, middle and high school are quite different so let’s see how he feels about High school!
Hello! I am Jeremy, as Kitty mentioned I am currently attending my first year of high school, Grade 9. The middle school schedules are similar to the school schedule in China, but high school is very different.
The schedule is divided into 2 semesters with January 30th as the transition day between the 2 semesters. The classes in each of the semesters are the same, that means I have to go to the same classes every day. For example, this semester I have Social Studies, Science, Math, Music/Art, and Language Arts, I have these classes in this exact order every day.
The biggest difference I feel like there is between middle and high school is the number of people. From the staff to the students to even the number of classrooms. There are about 110 classrooms and around 2200 students. Fun fact: Fredericton High School was once the biggest school in the entire British Commonwealth! With over 4000 students.
Even though we have a homeroom period at the beginning of the day, it is very short. After homeroom, we all head off to different classes with different students. Each class is 62 minutes, Lunch is 60 minutes. We also have 2 breaks, the morning break is 15 minutes and the afternoon break is 10 minutes. It is also important to note that there is no break between classes, but a 5 minute time for transition and that about it for the schedules of a Canadian high school.
After school, the school provides clubs, sports teams, and other extracurricular activities such as bands, drama productions, and leadership groups. There is homework almost every day but I usually finish them in half an hour.
Thanks, Jeremy. If you still want to know more about High school in Canada we will keep going next time and I will see you guys then!
各人好，这里是 Kitty in Canada , 接待来到 Article of the week 。
本日我又约请到一位客人，他上6年级时来到了加拿大，如今上9年级 ,也就是高中的第一年。
在加拿大，高中和初中有很大的差别， 让我们来听听他对高中生存的感受吧。
各人好，我是Jeremy，如今正在读九年级（高中一年级）。
在加拿大，初中课程的作息时间跟中国差不多，但高中的作息时间却完全差别。
高中的课程作息时间，以每年的一月三十号为界分成上、下两个学期。两个学期的课程设置是不一样的，但任何一个学期内的每一天的课都是一样的。
好比说：这学期我第一节课是社会科学，第二节是科学，第三节是数学，第四节是音乐/美术， 末了是英语语言文学。也就是说，整整一个学期我天天上的课程都是按照这个次序，是完全一样的课程。是不是有点如出一辙，缺乏变革？
我以为初中和高中最大的区别是学校内的人数，从门生人数到员工人数到课堂数都比初中要多的多。我上的高中叫弗莱高中，大概有110间课堂和2200门生。
一个风趣的事就是：弗莱高中曾经是整个英联邦最大的高中，其时一共有4000多门生。
我们天天都有一节homeroom课，这节课非常短。
Homeroom以后，我们会跟差别的同砚上差别的课。每节课是62分钟，午餐时间是60分钟。我们另有两段课间苏息时间，上午有15分钟，下战书有10分钟。每节课中心没有课间苏息时间，只有5分钟的换课时间。
放学以后，学校内有各种俱乐部、体育队和其他课后运动好比乐队、话剧团和门生代表团。通常天天都有作业，但最多半小时也就做完了。
谢谢Jeremy。假如你还想相识加拿大的高中生存，我们下次会继承这个话题。
再见 !
common school vocabulary/ 学校里会常常听到的词
Language Art- 英语
This word is very common because the English class is not called English but called Language Art in school. Language Art is the fancy version of the word English class. It’s very easy to understand why it’s called that name if you know what the word ‘language’ and ‘Art’ means, It’s like you know this language, but you have to make it sounds nice and beautiful just like a beautiful painting. In other words, The art of a certain language.
这个词在学校很常 见 ,由于在学校里英语课叫Language Art , 不叫English。Language Art 是一个很奥妙的叫法。假如你知道 ‘Language’ 和 ‘Art’ 是什么意思的话 , 这个词就很轻易明白了，好比说你知道一门语言是不敷的，要把他说的有美感才行。换种说法就是一门语言的艺术 。
