【题目】Teachers battle student stress

Teachers of Anna University participate in a workshop on helping students deal with stress. How do you handle an adolescent who refuses to speak, even about his project, or a student who is very attentive in class but fails to perform in examinations?

Two months the before a new group of students enter engineering colleges, lecturers and professors of Anna University are being advised on how to handle students and help them handle stress better.

In a series of workshops organized by the Centre for Empowerment of Women, Anna University, the lecturers are trained in specific ways to help students understand personal and academic stress.

"Students come here from varied backgrounds and the biggest challenge is to get them to open up and speak boldly," said HemaAchyuthan, director of Centre for Empowerment of Women.

The workshop on Friday was handled by Counsellor PrabhaArun who said that students tend to approach only those teachers who make them feel relaxed. Lecturers assume that college students are more responsible but the transition from school often takes time.

"Observing students' behaviour helps a lot, "said teachers. Y. Vidhya Lakshmi, a physics lecturer, said, "We might observe a student behaving differently but only when we talk to hostel wardens do we get a better picture of his recent activities. Also, the fact that teachers keep changing every semester does not allow students to establish longer relationships with them."

Teachers say that the 45 minutes allocated every week for counselling students is hardly adequate to understand their problems. Also, teachers are expected to shoulder more responsibilities, such as handling additional programs and submitting research papers. This leaves them with very little time to communicate with students.

【题目】阅读课文最后3个自然段,完成下列各题。

看着这种饲料小姑娘谋利的制度,我不禁想起孩子时候看到过的船户养墨鸭捕鱼的事了。和乌鸦很相像的那种怪样子的墨鸭,整排地停在船上,它们的脚是用绳子吊住了的,下水捕鱼,起水的时候船户就在它的颈子上轻轻地一挤,吐了再捕,捕了再吐。墨鸭整天地捕鱼,卖鱼得钱的却是养墨鸭的船户。但是,从我们孩子的眼里看来,船户对墨鸭并没有怎样虐待,而现在,将这种关系转移到人和人的中间,便连这一点施与的温情也已经不存在了!

在这千万被压榨的包身工中间,没有光,没有热,没有温情,没有希望……没有人道。这儿有的是二十世纪的技术、机械、体制和对这种体制忠实服役的十六世纪封建制度下的奴隶!

黑夜,静寂得像死一般的黑夜!但是,黎明的到来,毕竟是无法抗拒的。索洛警告美国人当心枕木下的尸首,我也想警告某一些人,当心呻吟着的那些锭子上的冤魂。

1“看着这种饲养小姑娘营利的制度”一句运用了什么修辞手法?第8段“……用他们多年熟练了的可以将一根稻草讲成金条的嘴巴,去游说那些无力‘饲养’可又不忍让他们的儿女饿死的同乡”这一句中也用了“饲养”一词,其作用与表达的感情有没有不同?

4最后一个自然段的句子充满了作者强烈的情感,说说作者的情感是如何表达的,有什么样的表达效果。

【题目】 One of my wonderful memories is about a Christmas gift. Unlike other gifts, it came without wrap(包装).

On September 11th, 1958, Mum gave birth to Richard. After she brought him home from hospital, she put him in my lap, saying. “I promised you a gift, and here it is. What an honour! I turned four a month earlier and none of my friends had such a baby doll of their own. I played with it day and night. I sang to it. I told it stories. I told it over and over how much I loved it!

One morning, however, I found its bed empty. My doll was gone! I cried for it. Mum wept and told me that the poor little thing had been sent to a hospital. It had a fever. For several days, I heard Mum and Dad whispering such words as hopeless, pitiful, and dying, which sounded ominous.

Christmas was coming. Dont expect any presents this year, Dad said, pointing at the socks I hung in the living room. If your baby brother lives, thatll be Christmas enough. As he spoke, his eyes filled with tears. I’d never seen him cry before.

The phone rang early on Christmas morning. Dad jumped out of bed to answer it. From my bedroom I heard him say, What? Hes all right? he hung up and shouted upstairs. The hospital said we can bring Richard home!

Thank God. I heard Mum cry.

From the upstairs window, I watched my parents rush out to the car. I had never seen them so happy. And I was also full of joy. What a wonderful day! My baby doll would be home. I ran downstairs. My socks still hung there flat. But I knew they were not empty; they were filled with love!
