A Joyful Festival
For students from Shanghai Songjiang No.1 High School, one of the best times of their school days must be the pomelo (柚子) picking festival. Starting in 2011, the festival has created many happy memories for the students. 6
More than 10 years ago, about 40 pomelo trees were planted along the streets at Shanghai Songjiang No.1 High School. During the pomelo season, the pomelos hung heavy on branches. They looked so wonderful and became a beautiful sight at the school. 7 Students sometimes climbed the trees to pick pomelos. Their teachers were worried that they would fall off the trees and get hurt. What could the teachers do to solve the problem?
One day, a teacher came up with a good idea—the pomelo picking festival! Since it was dangerous for the students to climb the trees secretly, why not agree to pick pomelos in a safe and interesting way? 8
Now, the festival has become one of the most popular events in the school every year. At the festival, students pick pomelos with their teachers and juice them to make pomelo tea or make the fruit into iced desserts. 9 Others carry out experiments and studies on pomelos. There is also a pomelo sports meeting.

In October 2025, China's Ministry of Education made new rules. They want to make art, music and PE classes more important in compulsory education(义务教育). This is great news for Chinese students.
For class time, art and music will take 9%-11% of all class hours in compulsory education. PE classes will be 10%-17% of class time, and no PE class will start before 8:20 a.m. This helps students get enough sleep in the morning.
The new rules also promote(促进) cross-subject learning. Art classes will put traditional culture and modern art together. Students will learn new technology tools like 3D modeling. Schools will use project-based learning (PBL) to let students solve real art problems. This helps them learn to work in teams and think in creative ways.
11. What percent of all class hours will art and music take?

12. What will students use to solve real art problems?

11.9%-11%. 根据“For class time, art and music will take 9%-11% of all class hours in compulsory education.”可知,美术和音乐课程占义务教育总课时的 9%到 11%。
