22、

In ancient(古代的) China, most kids never got a chance to go to school. They had to plant rice and vegetables, feed chickens or take care of their little brothers or sisters.

But if you were a boy, your father could spare you from the fields and send you to school. If there wasn’t a school in your village, you might have to live with your relatives or strangers in a town. Luckily, beginning in the Han dynasty, the school fees(费用) were paid by the emperor(皇帝). Boys worked very hard in school, because the school prepared them for the government tests. And whoever scored highly in the tests could get a good job.

Boys usually started school when they were about six years old. Elementary schools were very small with only one teacher for the whole school. Boys went to school every day, with no weekends, from about 6:00 in the morning to about 4:00 in the afternoon. There weren’t any Maths or science lessons.
