5 . This year over twenty-three hundred teenagers (young people aged from 13-19) from all over the world will spend about ten months in US homes. They will attend US schools, meet US teenagers, and form impressions of the real America. At the same time, about thirteen hundred American teenagers will go to other countries to learn new languages and gain a new understanding of the rest of the world.
Here is a two-way student exchange in action. Fred, nineteen, 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, a lively young man, knew little German when he arrived, but after two months’ study the language began to come to him. School was completely different from what he had expected—much harder. Students rose respectfully when the teacher entered the room. They took fourteen subjects instead of the six that were usual in the United States. There were almost no outside activities.
Family life, too, was different. The father’s word was law, and all activities were around the family rather than the individual. Fred found the food too simple at first. Also, he missed having a car. “Back home, you pick up some friends in a car and go out and have a good time. In Germany, you walk, but you soon learn to like it.”
At the same time, in America, Mike, a friendly German boy, was also forming his idea.“I suppose I should criticise American schools,” he said. “It is far too easy by our level. But I have to say that I like it very much.In Germany we do nothing but study. Here we take part in many outside activities. I think that maybe your schools are better in training for citizens. There ought to be some middle ground between the two.”

A.There is some middle ground between the two teaching buildings. |
B.There are a lot of outside activities. |
C.Students usually take 14 subjects in all. |
D.Students go outside to enjoy themselves in a car. |
A.A better education should include something good from both America and Germany. |
B.German schools trained students to be better citizens. |
C.American schools were not as good as German schools. |
D.The easy life in American schools was more helpful to students. |
6 . Andrew Kirby was used to sitting alone at lunch. The high school sophomore was never especially social and making friends hasn’t been easy. He was born with a neurological disorder and has undergone several major surgeries over his life.
“A lot of times at lunch I’ll text Andrew,” explained his mom, Kay Kirby. “I said, ‘Are you eating with anyone?’ And he said ‘No.’ And I sat at my desk at work and just prayed ‘Good Lord, please send somebody to eat with him.’”
But that changed on the first day of school this year when members of the Student Council noticed that Andrew was eating alone and invited him to join them.
“If we were sitting by ourselves, we would want someone to sit with us so we didn’t want kids to have to sit by themselves,” one student said. Added another, “Everyone needs to have someone and anyone can be a help with that.”
“It’s very encouraging to know that there are teenagers out there that took their time. They weren’t being in their own clique, they weren’t being selfish, and they took their time to reach out to somebody who might be different. And you know, you never know what a child is going through—maybe they’ve got a bad home life, maybe they’re depressed, and there’s a kid sitting by themselves and they noticed that,” Kay said. “I have peace at lunch now. I don’t feel like I need to text him and check on him.”
What started as a small act of kindness has even gone beyond the lunchroom. The group invited Andrew to go to the movies with them a couple weeks ago.
What’s more, he’s been eating lunch with them every day since.
