Have you ever wondered what an American high school and its students are really like?

A typical (典型的) American high school has several large buildings and enough s　 1.　 for about 1,500 students. Every student is given a locker.

Each day, students take six or seven classes. They must take science, maths, English and social studies. They can choose art, homemaking, fashion design and other classes. In some schools students are required to take one or more of the following special classes: health education, physical education or foreign language studies. Students m　 5.　 to different classrooms for each subject. This is because each teacher has their own classroom.
