在英國，中等教育通常在11-16歲，并按照year劃分（Years 7-12）。Year 8相當于中國的8年級。學生16歲時要參加普通教育證書（GCSE）的考試，通過后才能在學校或私立中學接受兩年的中等教育，之后要參加A級考試。
美國的中等教育通常分為初中（6th-8th grades）和高中（9th-12th grades）。9th grade相當于中國的九年級。
Daniel is visiting on on an online club called Schools Around the World.
Here are two articles on the website about different school lives.
Life in a British school
Hi, everybody.
My name is Nancy. I am in Year 8 at woodland school near London. It is a mixed school. Boys and girls have lessons together. Among all my subjects, I like French best. Learning foreign languages is fun.
Best是well最高級形式，表示最好。
Among表示“在……中”，最高級形式要用在一定范圍之內。
Our school has a Reading Week every year. During the week, we can borrow more books from the school library. We can also bring in books and magazines from home. I often read more books than my classmates.
Near the end of the week, we discuss the books with our classmates in class. Time seems to go faster when we are reading interesting books.
Life in an American school
Hi guys.
I'm John and I'm 14 years old. I'm in the 8th grade at Rocky Mountain High School near Denver.
Every Monday, I go to the Buddy Club. In the club, older students help new students learn more about the school.
My friend Tony is in the 12th grade. He often listens carefully to my problems and offers me help. He is my hero.
1. Help sb (to) do sth. 幫助某人做某事
2. Listen to sb or sth 聽……
3. offer sb sth 為某人提供……
We have different classes every day. On Friday afternoon, our school ends earlier than usual. My friends and I often do sports together.
Twice a week, I play baseball after school. I love this game and practice hard every time. Our team won two games last month.
