14.University-the best days of my life!I made lots of friends in my student dorm,went to great parties,joined the debating society…and,well,I did some work too-but I must admit my lecturers were very patient with my tardiness(拖拉).It's easy to look back at our university days through rose-tinted spectacles but the truth is that when we first arrived on campus,most of us were out of our comfort zone.
In fact,a survey of students at Imperial College London has revealed that 3out of 4students experience high levels of stress,or a mental health condition,during their time at college.The survey,completed by over a thousand students,also found that 70% of those that experience stress do so at least once a week,and 9% of students feel stressed constantly.
Kirsty,a student at Exeter University,didn't enjoy her first days in college.She says:"When I first got to university I don't think I'd realized that I'd forgotten how to make friends.I'd been with the same school friends for seven years,and so I was trying to balance social success with academic success while learning how to look after myself at quite a young age."
Dr Ruth Caleb of the counseling service at Brunel University in London has some tips that should make life easier for students before they set off for university.She says:"Certain things that I think it would be very helpful for students to have put in place are an ability to do the practical things of life-to do the washing,to do the cleaning and so on-being able to cook.Budgeting is extremely important in university life."And Caleb adds:"You should learn how to spend time on your own comfortably."
I graduated and learnt how to take care of myself the hard way.I hope that new students these days remember to acquire some life skills before they make the big jump.

解答 27-30 BADC
27.B 词义猜测题.根据句子中的but可知,前后半句之间是转折关系.后半句的意思是:事实是当我们初次踏进大学校园,大部分人就离开了自己的舒适区.因此推断前半句意思是:保持积极乐观的观点回顾我们的大学生活是容易的.所以划线词的意思是:积极乐观的观点.positive perspectives"积极的观点".故选B.
28.A 细节理解题.根据第四段Kirsty说的话"When I first got to university I don't think I'd realized that I'd forgotten how to make friends.I'd been with the same school friends for seven years"可知,在上大学的初期阶段,她不知道怎么交新朋友.故选A.
29.D 细节理解题.根据第五段Dr Ruth Caleb说的话可知,能够洗衣做饭,独立管理自己的预算,这些建议是有用的.由第四段最后一句"so I was trying to balance social success with academic success while learning how to look after myself at quite a young age"可知,平衡社交成功和学术成功是大学新生Kirsty在大学时期遇到的困难.故选D.
30.C 推理判断题.本句句意是"我毕业了,很艰难地学会了照顾自己",结合上文对大学期间大学生经常遭受着压力可以推断,作者通过这句话想要表明在大学期间作者花费很长时间才适应大学生活.故选C.
