School starts at 8.25am and finishes at 3.30pm, with perhaps another hour for an extracurricular club. So far, so normal — except the day is just beginning. With luck, there is time to dash home for a snack, before another round of lessons at cram school from 5pm to 8pm. You commute home from that, eat, do your school homework then collapse into bed before getting up and doing it all again the next day. It is a standard schedule for many 10-year-olds in Tokyo.
學校上午8點25上課,下午3點30放學,可能還有一個小時的課外俱樂部活動。到目前爲止,一切正常——不過這一天才剛剛開始。幸運的話,在下午5點到8點補習班的新一輪課程開始之前,還有時間衝回家喫點零食。從補習班回到家,喫飯,做作業,然後倒頭睡覺,第二天起牀再重複同樣的一天。這是東京許多十來歲孩子的標準時間表。
