With their help we have developed all kinds of     in both Arts and Science. Students can choose to            any school clubs they are interested in. We can      choose the subjects that we want to study. Last term I chose American Literature, because I wanted to learn     famous American writers. This term I chose to attend     classes because my father bought me a piano as a birthday present.
By the way, I was elected monitor of my class. Sometimes it can be     to be a monitor, because I have to do a lot of work and attend many meetings. However, being a monitor has taught me a lot, such as      for others and taking responsibilities and so on. When my class was given the title of “Model Class”, I was      than ever before. So being a monitor     an important part in my school life. I’m very pleased with my work.
