　　Students like optional¹ courses
This term our school has offered more than ten optional courses from which students can choose. The courses are given from 4:00 to 5:30 every Thursday afternoon. Students take great interest in optional courses. Their favourites are computers, spoken English, arts and so on . They say they have learned² a lot that is not taught in text books and they got a great deal of practice. However, students are not quite satisfied³. They hope that more optional courses will be offered or the homework would be less. They suggested⁴ more trips and visits should be organized so that they can learn more about what's going on outside school.
