Listen and repeat.
Maybe there are many differences between going to
school in Britain and going to school in your country.
In Britain, school starts between 8:30 and 9:00 and
finishes at about 4 o’clock in the afternoon. It is a
long day but there are no lessons on Saturdays.
Children usually have lunch at school. School meals
are not very expensive and are quite good. But some
children don’t like them and take sandwiches or go
home.
In Britain school holidays are different from
those in other countries. They are shorter at
Christmas and Easter but much longer in the
summer. The school year starts in the first week
in September and ends in the third or fourth
week of July.
Children start primary school when they are five
years old; they stay there until they are eleven.
Then they usually go to a secondary school.
Children cannot leave school before they are
sixteen. At this age most students take public
exams. Students who continue their studies go into
the sixth form. If their school doesn’t have a sixth
form, they change schools or go to a college.
Students need two years in the sixth form, and
they take more public exams. In some parts of
Britain, students go to middle school at the age of
eight and then go to secondary schools when they
are twelve or thirteen.

阅读理解。
When you are learning English, you find it not
clever to put an English sentence, word for word, into
your own language. Take the sentence “How do you
do?” as an example. If you looked up each word in the
dictionary, once at a time, what is your translation? It
must be a wrong sentence in your own language.
Languages do not just have different sounds; they
are different in many ways. It’s important to master
the rules for word order in the study of English, too. If
the speaker puts words in a wrong order, the listener
can’t understand his sentence easily.
Sometimes when the order of words in an English
sentence is changed, the meaning of the sentence
changes. But sometimes the order is changed, but
the meaning of the sentence doesn’t change. Let’s
see the differences between the two parts of
sentences. “She only likes apples.” “Only she likes
apples.” “I have seen the film already.” “I have
already seen the film.”
When you are learning English, you must do your
best to get the spirit of the language and use it as the
English speaker does.

_______ when we are learning English.

(
) 2. The writer thinks it is ______ in learning
English.

_________.
A. the meaning of an English sentence
always changes with the order of words
B. the order of words can never change the
meaning of an English sentence
C. sometimes a different order of words has a
different meaning
D. if the order of words is different, the meaning
of the sentence must be different
