澳洲高中課程零距離之四——未來的選擇

——From Sara

    今天早上英語(yǔ)老師給我們講了大學(xué)專業(yè)，主要分為文科，理科，商科三大類。澳洲最具優(yōu)勢(shì)的專業(yè)有農(nóng)業(yè)與生物科學(xué)，工程、計(jì)算與數(shù)學(xué)，環(huán)境科學(xué)，健康科學(xué)，人文與社會(huì)科學(xué)，分子生物學(xué)與生物科技，物理學(xué)、化學(xué)和地質(zhì)學(xué)。老師還推薦我們今后學(xué)經(jīng)濟(jì)。她說這是一個(gè)特別好的學(xué)科。

    In the morning, The English teacher talked about various majores available in Australian universities. Agricultural and biological sciences, engineering, computing and mathematics, environmental science, health science, humanities and social science, molecular biology and biotechnology, physics, chemestry and geology taught in Australia are all well regarded. Commerce was especially recommended by her.


    隨后我們乘著大巴去了Flinders大學(xué)。一所以1802年探索南澳海岸的英國(guó)航海家Matthew Flinders命名的澳洲知名大學(xué)。我們先去了第一個(gè)校區(qū)，機(jī)械工程校區(qū)，帶隊(duì)老師說跑男有一集就是在這里拍的。隨后帶隊(duì)的老師帶我們?nèi)⒂^了他們的實(shí)驗(yàn)室。實(shí)驗(yàn)室里有Flinders學(xué)校的學(xué)生研發(fā)的機(jī)器人。Flinders學(xué)校的自習(xí)室，圖書館也是非常的舒適美觀。尤其是在他們放東西的柜子里面還有充電插座。我覺得這個(gè)是特別方便的。Flinders學(xué)校的食堂設(shè)施環(huán)境也是不錯(cuò)的。有微波爐，冰箱還有舒適的座椅。后來我們又去了Flinders另外一個(gè)校區(qū)帶隊(duì)老師給我們講了一些關(guān)于Flinders大學(xué)?？频膬?yōu)劣勢(shì)，學(xué)費(fèi)情況，以及分?jǐn)?shù)。我個(gè)人喜歡醫(yī)學(xué)，雖然醫(yī)學(xué)的分?jǐn)?shù)線很高，但是在Flinders大學(xué)，只要你總分過了，英語(yǔ)成績(jī)過了，就可以選關(guān)于醫(yī)學(xué)的專業(yè).

    Then we caught a bus to Flinders university. We first went to the campus for mechanical engineering. The teacher told us that the famous show called ‘Running Man’ was taken here. Then the teacher showed us around the laboratory. There are robots developed independently by students in this lab. We also visited the self-study room and the library. It is quite impressive that they have got sockets in those lockers. I think they are especially convenient. Later, we looked around the students’ room, they have microwaves, refrigerators and comfortable seats over there which is also very convenient. Then the teacher took us to another campus of Flinders university. We were given a presentation on strengths and weaknesses, tuition fees and ATAR requirements for different courses at Flinders University. Medicine course is my favourite. Although ATAR required for medicine is really high. But at Flinders university, as long as your ATAR and results for EAL meets the requirement, you will be offered a place for medicine.


    老師介紹完后到了午餐時(shí)間，我們?cè)趯W(xué)校餐廳享受我們的午餐。學(xué)校為我們準(zhǔn)備了漢堡和烤肉。吃完以后一些同學(xué)去打了臺(tái)球。最后我們乘著大巴又返回了Immanuel College。
    After the presentation, the teacher prepared lunch for us in the school cafe. We enjoyed those burgers and roasts. Some of us played billiards with each other after lunch. Finally we went back to Immanuel College by bus.
