After that we need have the morning reading – everyday is different – maybe the Monday Wednesday Friday is English and Tuesday Thursday Saturday maybe is the Chinese – but it’s too sleepy / tiring and we also slept during the morning reading. After that we will would have breakfast in the canteen – because it was bigger than the university’s. There were 3 floors in the canteen, so we can choose the different things, but in university it’s just one floor and too small. There have two level and one level is best you needn’t money but if you get the two level you need take money to this high school. But we need to take the dorm – pay for the dorm – it’s not expensive – better than university and is cheap – in normal we usually take 8 RMB for a lunch.
