Question

Last month, Junior 1 students from Beijing Chaoyang Foreign Language School took a special test. They took it by traveling.

   The students went to Nanjing and Yangzhou for five days. Their teachers gave each student a list of questions to answer during the trip. The questions are also the students' mid-term test for history and geography. There were questions like: How long is the Beijing-Shanghai Railway? What were the six dynasties (朝代) that used Nanjing as their capital?

  "I never had so much fun with an exam," said Gao Chenxiang,13. "We learned a lot by working this way."

   The students learned much more than just the answers to the questions. They also visited the Nanjng Massacre Museum (南京大屠殺紀(jì)念館).

   "If 1 was learning only from a textbook, I wouldn′t have known how bad the Japanese invaders (侵略者) were," said Gao.

   Students did not get to sleep on the train to Nanjing. Usually the kids would sleep on a train journey so long, but in this case they were all given seats.

   "The seats are very uncomfortable," said DengLin,12. "I know most migrant workers (民工)travel this way. That must be so hard."

    Students also learned to take care of themselves. They washed clothes and made their own beds.

    "I learnt lots of useful life skills," said Wang Yiran,12. "1 never knew I could be so capable(能干的)."
