Надо задавать вопросы над этим текстом my school was very different from most schools. it was in a lovely old house in a forest. there were only sixty pupils. there weren't many facilities, but there was a good library if you wanted to look up information or catch up with your work. you won't believe this, but we didn't have to go to lessons! and there was no homework or test, or anything like that, we could do what we wanted. if we wanted to study, we just went to the teachers and asked them to help us. at first, i was bored! then i got interested in science and computers, and i studied science with a teacher who i got on with. i liked it so much that now i'm studying engineering at university and i want to go on to do further research. there were lots of other activities at school you could take up if you wanted-sport, painting and acting. the best thing was that we were free, and the school was democratic. everything was decided at school meetings, and everyone could vote-each student had the same vote as the teachers. a lot of people don't believe me, but it worked really well.

Моя школа была отличается от большинства школ. это было в прекрасном старом доме в лесу. были только шестьдесят учеников. там не так много объектов, но было хорошая библиотека, если вы хотите, чтобы искать информацию или догнать с вашей работой. вы не поверите, но мы не должны идти на уроки! и не было или тест, или что-нибудь подобное, мы могли бы делать то, что мы хотели. если бы мы хотели учиться, мы просто пошли с учителями и попросили их нам. во-первых, мне было скучно! тогда я заинтересовался наукой и компьютеров, и я изучал науки с учителем, который я получил на с. мне понравилось это так, что теперь я учился на инженера в университете, и я хочу, чтобы перейти к делать дальнейшие исследования. были много других видов деятельности в школе вы могли бы взять, если вы хотели-спорт, живопись и действия.лучше всего было то, что мы были свободны, и школа была демократической. на школьных собраниях все было решено, и каждый может голосовать, каждый студент должен был один и тот же голос, как и учителей.многие люди не верят мне, но он работал хорошо.
