3 . What do you think future P. E. classes will be like? Here, some teachers from the West want to share their ideas.

Charlie Rizzuto, a P. E. teacher in New York

In the next decade, I would like to see a change in people’s _______ towards P. E. At the moment, many people consider the subject unimportant. However, students don’t just learn how to run, jump or play ball games through P. E. A good P. E. teacher also teaches the importance of health, goal setting and teamwork, among others.

Nicci Rayes, a P. E. teacher in London

In P. E., it isn’t always easy to show students _______ they have made a mistake. Now, tablets（平板电脑）may provide a great solution. As more apps are developed, we can record and analyze students’ _______ more effectively. We can also help students set goals that are more suitable for them.

In dancing classes, we have mirrors to see our performances（including problems）more _______. I think it won’t be too long before tablets become the “mirrors” in P. E. classes.

Peter Green, a P. E. teacher in Oxford

In recent years, a number of new sports were _______ into P. E. classes. Examples include netball（无挡板篮球）, dodgeball（躲避球）and ultimate Frisbee（极限飞盘）. Students now have chances to try these new sports. However, most of these activities do not have a local club. As a result, students have nowhere to go to continue their development after graduation. _______, they may lose interest in P. E.

Another difference I have noticed is also about clothing： Teachers______ in a more relaxed way in Belgium． They wear______． In my experience in the UK， teachers wear similar things to the people ______ work in an office： shirts and ties for men； dresses， skirts， dark trousers and shirts for women．

As I am working with older students who are aged_____ 16 to 18 ， I have also noticed that they have ______subjects than I did at their age． In the UK， students only choose four subjects （five if they have very good grades） at 16． Some people like this， because it means they do not have to study subjects they don't like．Others feel that students make such a big choice too_______， because the subjects they choose at 16 will have an influence on what they can study at university．
