Parents’ meetings may be your worst nightmare （噩夢(mèng)）. However， that’s not always the case. The parents’ meeting we had after our mid-term examinations， for instance， couldn’t have been more surprising.

Sitting in our chairs next to our parents， we felt like we were on pins and needles， expecting a final outburst when they examined our grades and rankings. However， our teacher came to our rescue. He told our parents the stress we faced in our daily school lives and how hard we had worked for the college entrance examination. “No matter the score， they all studied very hard and each one of them has made progress. They deserve encouragement rather than blame，” he said. When they heard these words， many parents nodded， their anger gone. Well， to be honest， we hadn’t worked that hard before the meeting， but we decided we would try our best to live up to our teacher’s expectations after it.

Another highlight of this parents’ meeting was when our parents read our letters that we had written in advance. In our daily lives， we are so busy doing homework and preparing for exams that we hardly have time to communicate with our parents. Yet this parents’ meeting gave us an opportunity to show our appreciation. In the letters， we expressed our love for them and gratitude for everything they had done for us. Many parents burst into tears after reading their children’s letters.

So you see， our parents’ meetings may not be as bad as we think. They could be opportunities to bring us closer to our parents.

Friendships are very important to teenagers. Friendships provide teenagers with chances to develop social （社會(huì)的） skills. Teenagers can learn how to end a fight and still remain friends. Friends provide fun and excitement for teenagers through games. Friends also give advice to one another. Teenagers talk through lots of problems with their friends. Friendships also provide help during times of difficulty. It is helpful for teenagers to have a friend who is going through the same situations.

What happens when the youth don’t have friends？ Teenagers without friends are usually more lonely and unhappy. They will have lower levels of grades and lower confidence. As they get older， they are more apt to drop out of school.

As kids move into their teenager years， friends and friendships play an important role in teenager life as a way of getting personal enjoyment and social learning.

Most teenagers will have friends who parents either like or dislike. However， it is important to keep in mind that one way teenagers can truly learn how to choose and keep friends is through personal experience， which is sure to have some mistakes. Parents should not be too hard on teenagers when they choose friends who are not good enough or when their friendship fails. Remember， every social experience helps teenagers to lean about different people and improve social skills.

As parents， it is important to encourage friendships among teenagers. However， it is important to know who your teenager’s friends are and to communicate openly about changes in friendships with your teenagers.

When you were a kid， did you ever draw pictures in the dirt with sticks？ There is a man named Stan Herd who is very skilled at playing in dirt！

Stan Herd was born into a family of farmers in 1950 and grew up in a very small town in Southwest Kansas. He was a talented painter. When he started doing murals （壁畫） he realized he enjoyed doing a huge work of art. Then， while flying over a field once， he got the idea of using the earth as his canvas （畫布）. In 1976， he returned to farming roots and invented a new form of artwork called “crop art” or “Earthworks”. Herd is the first known American to use the earth as canvas.

To create these giant designs， Herd usually starts by making an outline （輪廓） with bricks. After that， he begins filling in the area with materials. These can range from different colors of dirt， sand， and rocks to different types of plants and flowers. Herd often uses local volunteers to help with his projects because his projects are too big for just one person. While he is creating his pieces， he sometimes looks at them by going up in a hot air balloon， but usually he just creates his work based on his previous experience.

Herd’s personal artwork frequently focuses on the theme of farm life. Herd comes from a family of farmers. His art aims to show respect for their hard work. He has also devoted his time to creating an earthen medicine wheel at Haskell Indian Nations University—a big project that he is very proud of. Through years of practice， he created his own art form by combining his farm upbringing with his love of art.

During my study， I also got to know many professors who was available for extra help whenever I needed it. The resources and opportunities are combined with the environment here made me want to attend Harvard even more.

Dear Peter，

American Senior High School Life

美國(guó)的高中生活

In America， after junior high school comes senior high school， which includes grades 9 through 12. Students are required to take certain subjects like English， social studies， math， science， and physical education. In addition， they choose among elective subjects to complete their high school education. Elective subjects include technology， music， art， and foreign languages.

Each student in the school has their own locker for books and personal items. This convenience saves students from carrying textbooks， and allows students a small space they can decorate with posters and favorite objects.

Cheating in any form is strictly prohibited in American schools. And in fact， high school students usually don’t cheat. A student caught in plagiarism， forgery， or copying another student faces severe discipline， even expulsion.

在美國(guó)，初中學(xué)業(yè)一結(jié)束就進(jìn)入高中。高中包括9到12年級(jí)，學(xué)生們要完成某些必修課，如英語(yǔ)、社會(huì)學(xué)、數(shù)學(xué)、自然科學(xué)和體育。此外，學(xué)生們選修一些課程來完成高中教育，選修科目有科技、音樂、美術(shù)和外語(yǔ)。

每位學(xué)生在學(xué)校都有自己的儲(chǔ)物柜，用來存放書本或私人物品。這很方便，學(xué)生們不需要攜帶課本，而且還使得他們有個(gè)小小的空間，可以裝飾海報(bào)及心愛之物。

任何形式的作弊在美國(guó)學(xué)校里都是嚴(yán)令禁止的。事實(shí)上，高中生們一般不會(huì)作弊。若學(xué)生在剽竊、弄虛作假或抄其他學(xué)生的作業(yè)時(shí)被發(fā)現(xiàn)，都會(huì)受到嚴(yán)厲的處分，甚至是開除。

Each school holds certain yearly activities for the entire school body， such as homecoming， prom night and holiday celebrations.

Homecoming is celebrated each fall， usually on a weekend， and events leading up to it may last all week. While homecoming is celebrated differently at each school， it usually includes a parade and the crowning of the Homecoming King and Queen， and ends with a football game and school dance.

The prom is a formal dance for students in grades 11 and 12， and is generally anticipated as the most important social event of the school year. It can also be a time of anxiety， as boys have to work up the courage to ask a date to the prom， and girls hope the right boy invites them. These couples dress in formal clothes—girls in long gowns， boys in suits. At the prom， students dance， have snacks and drinks， and chat. Prom usually ends with a Prom King and Queen being announced and crowned on stage before an envious audience.

各學(xué)校每年都會(huì)舉辦一些全校性活動(dòng)，如返校節(jié)、學(xué)年舞會(huì)、節(jié)日慶典等。

返校節(jié)在每年秋季舉辦，通常選在周末，相關(guān)活動(dòng)可能持續(xù)一周。每所學(xué)校舉辦返校節(jié)的方式有所不同，不過通常都包括游行、返校節(jié)“舞會(huì)國(guó)王”與“舞會(huì)王后”的加冕，并以橄欖球賽及全校性舞會(huì)來壓軸。

學(xué)年舞會(huì)是為11和12年級(jí)學(xué)生舉辦的正式舞會(huì)。學(xué)生通常會(huì)把它看成是學(xué)年中最重要的社交活動(dòng)。這也是令人焦躁不安的時(shí)刻，因?yàn)槟泻⒆觽兊霉淖阌職鈱ふ椅璋槿⒓舆@個(gè)舞會(huì)，而女孩子們則希望自己的意中人能向自己發(fā)出邀請(qǐng)。男生女生要著正式服裝（女孩子穿長(zhǎng)禮服，男孩子著西裝）。舞會(huì)上，學(xué)生們翩翩起舞、吃點(diǎn)心、喝飲料、輕松地閑聊。舞會(huì)臨近尾聲時(shí)，會(huì)公布“舞會(huì)國(guó)王”及“舞會(huì)王后”的名字。在一群艷羨的觀眾前，“國(guó)王”和“王后”登臺(tái)加冕。
