大家好，我是Yuli。欢迎收听我的播客。
今天想和大家聊一聊【中国的学校】。
每个国家的教育制度都不太一样，今天我给大家介绍一下中国的情况。小孩子3岁可以开始上幼儿园，3-4岁是小班,4-5岁是中班,5-6岁是大班,6-7岁可以上小学。小学一共六年，小学一年级到六年级。中学包括初中和高中，都是3年，初一、初二、初三，高一、高二和高三。高三有一个很重要的考试，叫做高考。高考的成绩会决定你去上哪一个大学，读什么专业。考上清华北大，也就是清华大学和北京大学是每一个学生的梦想。
那每个学生高考都考一样的试卷吗？教育部会准备几套试卷给每个省选，有一些省会自己出试卷。除了普通的考生，还有一种考生叫高考特长生。他们一般有艺术或者体育的特长，高考分数的要求会低一些。中国的大学分本科和专科，本科一般读四年，专科读三年，一些特别的专业，例如医学专业需要五年。
那是每个中国孩子都能从幼儿园读到大学吗？不是的。在中国现在是九年义务教育，也就是小学六年和初中三年所有学生可以免费上。初中结束的时候有中考，中考的成绩决定你能不能考上高中。一般来说，如果你在好的高中读书，你的高考成绩会更好，更有机会考上好的大学，所以很多家长在初中开始就对孩子的学习成绩很着急。
你可能会问，如果考不上高中，应该怎么办呢？有的学生会选择复读，也就是再读一年初三，再参加一次中考；有的学生选择上职业学校。家庭条件好的学生可能选择出国留学，条件不好的学生只能直接工作。
中国的学校有两个学期，第一学期一般是9月1号开学，12月底开始放寒假；第二学期是2月开学，7月开始放暑假。具体开学和放假的日期每个学校会不太一样。
在你的国家教育制度是什么样的？留言告诉我吧。我们下期见。

Emma:
Have you ever been to a baseball game?

Tiam:
No, never. I've watched a few games on TV, but I didn't understand much.

Emma:
That's okay. I'll explain the basics.

Tiam:
Great! I'm ready to learn.

(They arrive at the stadium.)

Tiam:
Wow! This place is huge.

Emma:
It sure is. Baseball is a big part of American culture.

Tiam:
There are so many people wearing the same jersey.

Emma:
They're supporting their favorite team.

Tiam:
The fans seem really excited.

Emma:
Just wait until the game starts.

(A few minutes later.)

Tiam:
Everyone is cheering!

Emma:
Someone just hit a home run!

Tiam:
Now I understand why everyone is so happy!

Emma:
Exactly! That's one of the most exciting moments in baseball.

(Later in the game.)

Tiam:
I'm actually enjoying this more than I expected.

Emma:
See? Baseball is fun once you understand it.

Tiam:
I still don't know all the rules...

Emma:
That's okay. Nobody learns everything in one day.

Tiam:
Maybe next time I'll know what's happening before you explain it.

Emma:
That's the spirit!
