Those who flunk in the grueling high school entrance examination, or zhongkao, are usually enrolled at vocational schools.

那些在艰苦的中考中不及格的人通常会被职业学校录取。

In fact, I flunked the first class in perspective drawing, and it really got me angry, so I went back the next semester and took it and got an A.

事实上，我得到不及格的第一节课是透视图，这真的让我很生气，所以我下一个学期又来修这门课，得了 A。
