6月20日，来自美国友好学校Collegiate School的一线优秀教师Kelly Tracy 博士就“中美高中教育比较”这个话题与我校学生进行了一次交流。来自高一（4）班的同学们积极主动地用英文与Tracy博士进行了互动，Tracy 博士结合在省中交流的感想和美国高中的实际对同学们的问题一一作答。同学们流利的英文和敏锐的思维给Kelly Tracy 博士留下了深刻的印象。以下是高一（4）班两位同学在活动后的感想：
A talk with Dr.Tracy
This noon , we felt greatly delighted to have a talk with Tracy, a Doctor of Biology. She has been in our school for a week and a half , and today she was here to give us a talk about the differences between American students and us Chinese students . She said , compared with Chinese students , American students have more free time after school . They go to school at 8 a.m. much later than we do ,and they only need to stay at school till 3:15 p.m. How incredible it is for us Chinese students ! When it came to what kind of teacher was more popular among students ,she voiced some impressive opinions .She mentioned that a good teacher should be patient and friendly enough ,of course it’s better if he(she) can be a little bit more passionate. A teacher like this can take students to a higher place .We quite agreed with what she said .At last ,we had an interaction with Tracy. We asked her some questions and she gave us the instructive answers .We all felt we had a rewarding time with Tracy .
As we know ,American education is more on-limits than Chinese education .The teachers should attach the importance to students’ creativity and the ability to study independently .However ,Chinese exam-oriented education put a lot of pressure on students, which makes students feel tired most of the time .After graduating from senior high schools ,they just want to play instead of studying further by themselves ,and this is where American students differ from Chinese students .As a Chinese great ideologist Liang Qichao once said ‘Young strong ,China strong .’We are here because we are the future of China ,so it’s time we worked harder to make our county stronger and stronger, which is our mission. This will take a long time ,but we are already on the way……

今天下午，我们与一位生物博士Kelly Tracy老师进行了交流,我们感到非常高兴。Tracy博士已经在我们学校交流了一个多星期，今天她在这里主要给我们介绍了中美教育的差异。她告诉我们：“ 与中国学生相比，美国学生放学后有更多的可以自主安排的时间。美国学生早上上学的时间比中国学生晚，是早上8点钟，下午3点1刻就放学了。”这些对于我们中国学生来说真的是难以想象。对于 “什么样的老师最受学生欢迎？”她的观点让人印象深刻：“一位好老师应该有足够的耐心和友善，如果他/她还能够有一些对工作的热情就更好了。这样的老师能引导学生走向更高处。” 我们都非常赞同她。最后我们跟Tracy博士进行了互动。对于我们的提出的问题，她的回答都非常具有启发性。
我们都在美国教师更注重发展学生的创造力和独立研究的能力。而中国教育则以考试为指挥棒，这就给学生造成了很大的压力，使学生大多时间里都疲惫不堪。高中毕业后，很多人都没能继续努力学习不断提高，取而代之的是放松下来不思进取。中国著名思想家梁启超曾经说过：“青年强则中国强。”我们青年一代是国家的未来，肩负着刻苦学习让祖国越来越强大的使命。虽然我们离理想目标还有很大一段距离，但是我们已经走在了路上……
