There are so many people under the unbearably high pressure in China. Heavy work demands and intense competition pile enormous pressure on the individuals who desperately try to pursue a more well-paid salary and push for a higher position. For students, exam pressure makes them overburdened and overwhelmed. Stress is a personalized phenomenon but confronts everyone at different degrees.This phenomenon divides people. Some have a depressing and gloomy attitude toward the physical and mental strain. So stress is always blamed for someone's mental disorder, violence and even suicide. In contrast to their negatively reacting to stress, others may face up to the mounting pressure and keep a excellent mood.How to properly and effectively cope with the huge pressure? First, people under the tremendous pressure can select a proper way to relax, such as pampering themselves with a long hot bath and immersing themselves in the favorite CD. Repetitive tasks and no break will propel people to pay a hefty health price. Second, the over-high expectations leading to the strong strain must be lowered. Third, a chat with close friends is a favorably good way. Talking to them will alleviate enormous pressure.2. Psychological Problems among College StudentsThere is no denying the fact that psychological problems are becoming serious among college students. Reports are often heard that some collegians committed suicide or murdered their roommates. Typical examples include the case of a Chinese student named Ma Jiajue and that of a Korean student studying in the U.S.A number of factors may account for these young men and women’s troubles, but the following might the critical ones. First, as young adults, most of them are at the stage of personality formation and are quite sensitive to their surroundings. Secondly, they are at a critical point of personal development and are facing pressure from various aspects: love, academy, job-seeking and so on. To make things worse, most of them are living off home and without their parents care and supervision.In view of the seriousness of the problem, effective measures must be taken before things get worse. First, it is essential that the channel of communication be kept open among students, between students and their superintendents as well asbetween students and their parents. Besides, psychological counseling should be enhanced and rendered to problem students in time. Only with these measures taken can we expect sound growth of college students3．How to improve students’ mental health1）大学生的心理健康十分重要2）因此，学校可以3）我们自己应当分析：题目分析学生的心理健康是近年来被热议的话题之一，属于经典的问题解决型，故不外乎采用举例子，作比较分类别列数字打比方等方式讨论，参考范文Students mental health has been playing an increasingly important role in our day-to-day life. Indeed, it is widely accepted that it has gained growing popularity among people in all walks of life. Obviously, it is necessary that effective actions should be taken to prevent such problems.Authorities in universities play a critical role in the situation. To begin with，colleges or universities can provide chances for the young men to ease their attention. What’s more, teachers may communicate with students frequently and find the potential threats among them in advance. Besides, specialists in this field are to be required to make full preparation for cases in time. Facing the crisis，experts can deal with it in a professional way，which means they have more or better opportunities to save us than othersFrom the factors mentioned above, we may safely draw the conclusion that we can free ourselves from mental illness by taking certain precautions. For example，if you have pains or puzzles in mind，finding a friend to express these is a good way to release pressure. Certainly，there is little doubt that further attention will be paid to the issue.New words and expressions:potential threats 潜在威胁ease 减轻，舒缓psychological problems 心理问题precaution 预防措施release pressure 释放压力Reading ReferenceMourners at a memorial in Blacksburg, Virginia, Monday at Virginia Tech. But other Americans also honored the thirty-two students and teachers. Some of the victims at the university in Blacksburg were from other countries. The attack by a student, Cho Seung-hui, who also killed himself, was the deadliest shooting in modern American history.The tragedy brought back memories of other school shootings, including what had been the worst. In fact, Friday was the eighth anniversary of the attack at Columbine High School in Colorado. Two young men killed twelve other students and one teacher, and themselves.Often, when a shooting captures national attention, debate about gun control follows. This week some of the calls to restart that debate came from political leaders in other countries.Australian Prime Minister John Howard spoke of the gun culture in the United States. He noted that his own country took action to limit the availability of guns after a man killed thirty-five people in Tasmania eleven years ago.British Home Office minister Tony McNulty studied at Virginia Tech. If the tragedy starts a serious debate on gun laws, he says, then some good may come from it.The White House said Friday that President Bush has ordered federal officials to study issues raised by the shooting. These include how to deal with people whose mental health problems can make them a danger.On Monday, a spokeswoman said the president believes that people have a right to arms, but all laws must be followed.The Second Amendment to the Constitution says: "A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed."Gun laws are not the only issue. Others involve privacy laws and disability rights that protect people with mental disorders.Cho Seung-hui was born in South Korea but lived most of his life in the United States. He was known at Virginia Tech as a troubled person. He studied English and some of his writings were so violent they scared other students and his professors.But schools may worry about legal action if they expel a student who has not made direct threats. Virginia Tech officials say they did what they could within the law.The shooter was armed with two handguns that he recently bought after passing a criminal history check. There are federal laws but each state also has its own laws on buying and selling guns. Virginia is among the states with fewer restrictions than others.The Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence says an estimated thirty-nine percent of American homes have a gun. The campaign points to national injury reports from two thousand four, the most recent year available. There were almost thirty thousand gun-related deaths. About forty percent were murders. Most of the others were suicides or accidents.。

But then they realized just what it was."KIDS ON THE TRACK!"Jack MurphyMonday, May 1, 1989 was a pleasant morning in Ramsey, N.J. Kate Pritchard bent over her car trunk and struggled with the bags of groceries she'd just brought home. She heard the distant cry of a locomotive horn. The trains of Conrail passed less than 300 feet from the Pritchards' house. No fence separated their backyard from the track — only a thick row of trees. But, her sons, 3(1/2)-year-old Todd and 18-month-old Scott, were nearby, playing on the driveway."Stay right there," Kate said, "while Mommy puts the groceries away. Then we'll go inside and have lunch, okay?""Okay!" said Todd, giving a thumbs-up gesture he'd seen his father make."Okay!" echoed Scott, trying to copy his older brother.They watched their mother enter the house with several bags.Kate shut the refrigerator and hurried outside. Good. The boys were playing right where she'd left them.As she lifted more bags from the trunk, Kate heard a train race past — a passenger express, she judged from its speed. She carried more bags into the house.The sounds of the train apparently drew the boys' attention to the track. After making their way through the trees, they climbed to the top of the steep roadbed, knelt down along the railroad and began to play.A few thousand feet west, a freight train rolled slowly toward the children. Overhead lights signaled to engineer Rich Campana that the passenger train ahead was out of the way, and they could resume their normal speed of 40 miles per hour. The engineer adjusted the accelerator, then turned to conductor Anthony Falzo,a man, medium in height and strongly built, who had worked for Conrail for almost half of his 35 years."So what'd you do over the weekend, Anthony?""Oh, not much. Mostly messing around — a little TV, then bed. What else?"Campana smiled. "Hey, you'd better cool down, Anthony —you're getting to be a real party animal!"The two men laughed. They were still laughing as the train began gathering speed, moving at 21 miles per hour.Rich and Anthony spotted something ahead at the same instant."What's that up there?" asked the engineer. Anthony didn't answer. Staring intently, he was trying to identify the curious shape on the track ahead. A box? Old rags?Suddenly both men realized what it was. Rich threw on the emergency brake and pulled on the air-horn handle with all his strength.The horn's blast and Anthony's words exploded at the same time: "Kids on the Track!"Anthony sprang through the cab door onto a narrow running board six feet above the wheels and raced to the front of the swaying train. Climbing quickly down a steel ladder, he paused at the bottom, two feet above the roadbed flashing by.Now he could clearly see the two little children. They were sitting alongside the rail. Anthony waved wildly and shouted, "Get away! Get away!"He mentally calculated the train's deceleration rate and groaned. We'll never stop in time.Absorbed in play, Todd and Scott did not hear the train. Finally, as the sound became thunderous, Scott looked up andfroze.Though the train was slowing, Anthony knew it was still going faster than he could run. So he forced himself to wait until he would be close enough to leap off and grab the boys. With perhaps ten feet left between them and the sharp-edged snowplow blade at the front of the train, Anthony sprang forward from the ladder. Landing on the loose, fist-size stones alongside the track, he had to struggle to keep his balance. In two giant steps he almost reached the children. They stared up at him in wide-eyed shock. Anthony, throwing his body into space, flew toward them.The unending blast of the train horn struck Kate Pritchard like a hammer blow. "The boys! " she cried, and raced out the door. They were gone!The track, she thought. I must get to the track!As his body crashed downward, Anthony covered Todd while reaching out with one arm to grab Scott and pull him clear of the track. But the train had caught up to them. Anthony saw the black steel edge of the snowplow blade hit the young child under the chin, driving his head back and scraping over his face. Instantly, blood flashed across the boy's forehead.Part of the train then punched into the back of Anthony's work jacket, tearing the nylon fabric. Still, Anthony managed to pull Scott completely under him.He's dead, Anthony thought. He felt sick with horror. Burying his face in the stones, he pushed downward on the two boys with all his strength as the train passed inches above them.The first person Kate saw when she reached the halted train was Todd. Her older boy was jumping up and down and crying uncontrollably. But Kate could see he wasn't injured. She grabbedand hugged him. Then she saw the still figure of a man lying under the third car. Scott's head, a mask of darkening blood, was visible under him. Kate ran to them. "Scott!" she screamed.Anthony twisted to face her. "Lady," he said, his voice calm, "go to your house. Call the police and ambulance." Kate, only half hearing him, extended her arms to take her baby. Anthony spoke again, more sharply, "Ma'am, listen! Go to your house and call the police — call an ambulance. Go!"Kate tore back to the house, made the calls, then reached her husband, Gary, via his beeper.When the first police car arrived, Anthony was still holding little Scott. The conductor knew from the child's cries that he was alive, but Scott might have internal injuries that any movement could worsen. So Anthony insisted the emergency personnel check the boy before he would release his grip. Miraculously, Scott's injuries were not serious, requiring just 13 stitches.There had only been 14 inches between the plow blade and the ground. Reporters later asked Anthony if he had hesitated before risking his life."No," he replied. "All I could think was that those two little kids have their whole lives still ahead of them, and if I do nothing, they're dead. There was no way I could let that happen."Soon after the incident, Anthony visited the Pritchards' home. He recalls putting his arms around Todd and Scott and lifting them. "It made me remember the moment when I first sheltered them under the train. It was a strange feeling, holding them again — and wonderful too."Since that first visit, the Pritchards say that Anthony has almost become a member of the family. They also report that a fence now separates their neighborhood from the railroad track.New Words and Expressionstrunkn. 汽车后部的行李箱struggle withhave difficulty handling or coping with 费力地对付groceryn.

新视野大学英语读写教程一第七单元作文
新视野大学英语读写教程一第七单元作文English:In my opinion, the ability to make decisions independently is crucial for personal growth and success. When we have the confidence to trust our own judgment and take ownership of our choices, we are more likely to learn from both our successes and failures. This self-reliance not only builds character but also fosters resilience in the face of challenges. By being proactive decision-makers, we can shape our own paths and create opportunities for growth and progress. Ultimately, the ability to make independent decisions empowers us to take control of our lives and strive towards our goals with confidence and determination.Chinese:在我看来，独立做出决策的能力对个人成长和成功至关重要。
当我们拥有信心相信自己的判断力并对自己的选择负责时，我们更有可能从成功和失败中学习。
这种自主性不仅建立了人格，还在面对挑战时培养了坚韧性。
通过积极决策，我们可以塑造自己的道路，为个人成长和进步创造机会。
最终，独立做出决策的能力赋予我们掌控自己生活的力量，并以自信和决心努力追求目标。

decline dramatically when they retire.
Psychologically: Old people in Western countries are generally considered useless, a burden on their families and on the public purse. They are hardly held in respect. On the other hand, most of them, so used to focusing on work, simply do not know how to relax or pursue another interest now that they have time to do so. They feel they “should” be working and contributing , because work was where they were respected and their skills recognized. As retired people, their self-confidence is diminished. The

全新版大学英语(第二版)综合教程 第1册 Unit 7 Animal Intelligence
Before Reading >> GorillaI. Introduction to GorillasListen to the following passage and fill in the gaps with the words you hear.It’s the largest of the great apes. The male is heavily built and may stand 1.7m (5.5 feet) in height, with an arm spread of 2.4m (7.8 feet). It has a large head with a short neck, a prominent (突起的) mouth, thin lips, and small ears. The female is smaller than the male. This huge animal has formidable (可怕的) canine (似犬的) teeth, yet it feeds on fruit and vegetables and has no natural enemies.Most of the day is spent on the ground; they usually walk on all four limps leaning on the knuckles (手指关节) of their hands, but occasionally upright. Gorillas live in family groups. The young gorillas climb very well, but old ones stay almost all the time on the ground. At night, the gorilla family sleeps on the ground in nests made of branches and leaves. Gorillas are hard to keep in captivity, for they are likely to get human diseases, such as tuberculosis (结核病). Gorillas, generally, are a center of attraction in most of the big cities.II. Features of GorillasHair and Skin:Gorillas are covered with brownish hair on most of their body (except their fingers, palms, armpits, and bottoms of their feet).Head:Gorillas have a very large head with a bulging forehead, and each has a unique nose print (like we have unique fingerprints).Senses:Gorillas have senses very similar to ours, including hearing, sight (they seem to be slightly nearsighted and have color vision), smell, taste, and touch.Habitat:Gorillas are primarily terrestrial (陆栖的) (although they lived in trees back in their evolutionary past). Gorillas live in tropical rain forests (in the forest edges and clearings), wet lowland forests, swamps, and abandoned fields.Before Reading >> Killer WhaleListen to a passage and answer the questions.1. How long and how heavy is a male killer whale?(The male averages 27 feet and 11 tons.)2. How fast dose a killer whale swim?(It swims with a speed of 30 mph.)3. How many members are there in a family group of killer whale?(There are about 5 to 20 members in a family group of killer whale.)Before Reading >> English Song –BenI.

Write a short paragraph to discuss ways to make your campus life more colorful.
My life on campus is both challenging and colorful. I naturally devote most of my weekdays to courses, both compulsory and optional. As the academic requirements demand that I must spend all my weekday evenings in the library reading reference books and drafting papers, I think it is worthwhile to stay up late to come up with original ideas for my papers. This makes me a late riser. I exercise every afternoon so that I can keep fit. Such a pace will, I believe, prepare me to finish my university study.
