Question

Here is a 2-way student exchange. Fred, 19 , spent last year in Germany with George’s family. In turn, George’s son Mike spent a year in Fred’s home in America.
Fred knew little German when he arrived. But after 2 months of studying, the language became easy for him. School was very different from what he had looked forward to and it was much harder. Students stood up politely when the teacher came into the room. They took 14 subjects while American students usually took 6 in the US.
Family life, too, was different. The father’s word was the law(法律) . All the children had to do their activities with their family. Fred also missed having a car. In Germany, you should walk to go out to have a good time.
At the same time, in America, Mike was forming his own ideas. He says,’ American schools are too easy for our level but I have to say that I like it a lot in Germany , we do nothing except study. Here we take part in many other activities.

解析本文講的是美國學校生活與德國學校生活的不同。
1. stand 根據Students stood up politely when the teacher came into the room可知，當老師進教室后學生要有禮貌地站起來。本句用的是have to，后面接原形，故用stand。
2. teachers 學生有禮貌站起來是表達對老師的尊敬，故為teachers。
3. Family 根據下面的Family life, too可知講的是家庭生活。
4. fathers 下面講到The father’s word was the law(父親的話就是法律)，說明他們以必須聽從他們父親的，故為fathers。
5. subjects 根據They took 14 subjects while American students usually took 6 in the US可知此處講的是學校科目的不同，故為subjects。
6. difficult 表格寫到美國學生的科目are very easy，從but可知是轉折，故德國學生的科目就難一些，填difficult。
7. drive 根據Fred also missed having a car可知他們在美國是可以開車（drive a car）去上學的，故為drive，前面為情態動詞can后接原形。
8. walk 從In Germany, you should walk to go out to have a good time可知在德國是步行去外面的，故為walk。
9. many 根據we take part in many other activities可知，在美國還有許多其它的活動，故為many。
10.study 從I have to say that I like it a lot in Germany , we do nothing except study可知在德國除了德國什么都不做，換句話說他們必須努力學習，故為study。
