　　Situation 13:
        　　English Class(After lunch, Kevin and Barry go to
        　　English class.Today, their teacher, Mr. Gomez,
        　　is talking about the SATand getting into a
        　　good college or university or college.)
        　　Ladies and gentlemen,
        　　today we are not going to study English.
        　　Cool.You're the best,Mr. G.
        　　Don't be too happy.Instead, I want to talk to you about the
        　　SAT and education after high school.First, who can tell me
        　　what the letters S-A-T stand for?
        　　They stand for Scholastic Aptitude Test.
        　　Very good,Lisa.
        　　I thought they stand for School's Always Lousy.
        　　You are a good student, Kevin.
        　　You shouldn't have such a bad attitude.
        　　I know, but I don't like school.
        　　But you like English, don't you?
        　　Yeah, but that's different.English is fun.
        　　Well, what classes don't you like?
        　　I hate P.E.The teacher is the worst.
        　　Don't worry.There is no P.E.on the SAT.I have another
        　　question;who can tell me the difference between a
        　　college and a university?
        　　You can only go to a college for four
        　　years,but a university has graduate schools soyou can go there for
        　　a master's or doctoral degree.
        　　Correct.And what about a junior college?
        　　A junior college is only for two years.
        　　Correct again. And, Kevin, don't worry about P.E.When you go to a
        　　college or a university, you will choose a major,like English for
        　　example,and you won't have to take many classes that
        　　you don't like.
        　　College sounds much funnier than high school.
