西德威尔是美国一所私立学校,学费较贵,但教育质量高,前总统克林顿的女儿切尔西曾在那里上学,走进这里,我们可以体悟美国中学教育的点滴。必修与选修相结合据私立西德威尔中学高中部教务长戈德曼女士介绍,美国的高中包括9年级至12年级(相当于中国的初三至高三)。学生每年需修5门课,如有的学生想多学一点,也可修6门。语文和数学是每年必修的。历史需修3年,理科和外语需修2年。语文可选修基础写作、英文文学、莎士比亚戏剧和俄国文学等;数学可修几何、代数、三角、方程、微积分初步、线性代数和更深一些的微积分等;理科有物理(共3级)、化学(共3级)和生物(2级);历史有美国史、中国史、亚洲史、欧洲史、宗教比较史和哲学流派等;外语有法语、西班牙语、汉语和拉丁语。由于各学科的课程之间没有很紧密的衔接,学生选修的课程搭配因人而异,所以高中部没有固定的班级,在一起上课的有不同年级的学生。体育锻炼不算课,但要计成绩。大多数学生每天下午3时放学后都积极参加各种体育锻炼或文艺活动,开发自己的能力。毕业班的学生还要在各自联系的单位进行一个月的实习。
Sidwell is a private school in the United States. Tuition is expensive, but the quality of education is high. Chelsea, the daughter of former President Clinton, once went to school there. We can get acquainted with the secondary school education in the United States. Combining compulsory and elective courses According to Ms. Goldman, Senior High School Dean of the private Sidwell Middle School, the United States’ high schools include the 9th to 12th grades (equivalent to China’s third to third grades). Students need to take 5 courses each year. If some students want to learn more, they can also take 6 courses. Language and mathematics are compulsory every year. History needs to be repaired for 3 years, science and foreign languages need to be repaired for 2 years. Languages can be selected for basic writing, English literature, Shakespeare plays and Russian literature; mathematics can repair geometry, algebra, trigonometry, equations, preliminary calculus, linear algebra and deeper calculus, etc.; science has physics (3 levels in total), Chemistry (3 levels in total) and Biology (2nd level); history includes American history, Chinese history, Asian history, European history, comparative history of religion and philosophical school; foreign languages include French, Spanish, Chinese, and Latin. Because there is no close connection between courses in various disciplines, the matching of students’ elective courses differs from person to person. Therefore, there are no fixed classes in high schools, and students in different grades attend classes together. Physical exercise does not count as a class, but it must be calculated. Most students actively participate in various physical exercises or cultural activities after school at 3 pm every day to develop their own abilities. Students in the graduating class are also required to conduct a one-month internship in their respective units.
