students committed suicide by jumping off dorm buildings.
Officials from the university are reluctant (不情愿的) to give interviews.
"We had a hard time calming down students who were shocked at the suicides," said Zhang Jingyuan,
head of HUST"s center for research and guidance for students" development.
"Media coverage (报导) may arouse some students" negative emotions again. Suicide can be
contagious (传染性的)," Zhang said.
The university reacted promptly to the first suicide on October 23.
Advisors and class leaders conducted dorm-to-dorm checks to find students suffering depression.
Then psychologists offered one-on-one counseling to them.
Notice boards publicizing tips for identifying peers" mental problems and offering help were set up in
front of dorm buildings. Leaflets (传单) carrying similar information were handed out to each dorm.
However, the second suicide came seven days later.
Both students were described as men of few words. Their schoolmates didn"t see anything to indicate
suicide.
Zhang revealed that the two students had been bothered by mental disorders. But the school didn"t
know this until the students" close friends outside school and their parents unveiled (揭露) the truth after
the suicides.
According to Zhang, there are only three full-time counselors (心理辅导专家) working in the
university"s counseling center for its 60,000 students. He complained: "It"s unrealistic to rely only on
counselors to detect students" mental problems."
Some universities in the US may be able to offer solutions to Zhang"s worries. They have established
programs to train students to be the bridge between troubled friends and counselors.
At Worcester Polytechnic Institute, at Worcester, Massachusetts, US, young people in the Student
Support Network role play to learn how to detect SOS signals from their schoolmates.
They also practice how to gently persuade emotionally troubled students to go for professional help.
To develop such empathy (同理心), many universities in China have organized campus events to
popularize knowledge about mental health. But these are not that attractive to students.
Ke Juanjuan, 24, is pursuing a master"s degree in English translation at HUST. Ke has found that few
of her peers will pay attention to activities about mental health when they are not troubled by it.
Rather than bombard students with the words "mental health", Ke suggested the school organize
lectures and workshops concerning study, job-hunting and relationships. She explained: "Students care
about these topics. They tend to have problems in these areas and may thus get stuck in depression.
"By helping students better deal with these problems, the school can effectively prevent self-inflicted
injury and suicide among students."
Effective prevention comes from long-term education for life instead of temporary intervention(干预)
to meet an emergency, said Hu Yi"an. Hu delivers a course of lectures on life and death at Guangzhou
University. He worries that universities have paid little attention to education for life.
"Education for life helps students respect and love life so they won"t resort(诉诸) to ending their lives
when they have difficulties," said Hu.
According to Hu, the principles can be incorporated (结合) into everyday teaching.
B. Campus
C. Advertisement
D. Culture

can! They can use their sense of vision and smell to tell the difference between people who pose a threat
and those who do not.
In Kenya, researchers found that elephants react differently to clothing worn by men of the Maasai
and Kamba ethnic groups. Young Maasai men spear animals and thus pose a threat to elephants;
Kamba men are mainly farmers and are not a danger to elephants.
In an experiment conducted by animal scientists, elephants were first presented with clean clothing or
clothing that had been worn for five days by either a Maasai or a Kamba man. When the elephants
detected the smell of clothing worn by a Maasai man, they moved away from the smell faster and took
longer to relax than when they detected the smells of either clothing worn by Kamba men or clothing that
had not been worn at all.
Garment color also plays a role, though in a different way. In the same study, when the elephants saw
red clothing not worn before, they reacted angrily, as red is typically worn by Maasai men. Rather than
running away as they did with the smell, the elephants acted aggressively toward the red clothing.
The researchers believe that the elephants" emotional reactions are due to their different interpretations of the smells and the sights. Smelling a potential danger means that a threat is nearby and the best thing to
do is run away and hide. Seeing a potential threat without its smell means that risk is low. Therefore,
instead of showing fear and running away, the elephants express their anger and become aggressive.
B. Kamba people raise elephants for farming.
C. Both Kamba and Maasai people are elephant hunters.
D. Both Kamba and Maasai people traditionally wear red clothing.
B. They needed time to relax when smelling something unfamiliar.
C. They became anxious when they smelled Kamba-scented clothing.
D. They were frightened and ran away when they smelled their enemies.
B. Elephants attack people who wear red clothing.
C. Scientists are now able to control elephants" emotions.
D. Some Kenyan tribes understand elephants" emotions very well.
information, messages and pictures exist, mirrors the real world in many ways. People ask for information, play games, and share hobbies. Others buy and sell products. Still others look for friendship, or even
love.
Unlike the real world, however, your knowledge about a person is limited to words on a computer
screen. Identity and appearance mean very little in cyberspace. Rather, a person"s thoughts-or at least the
thoughts they type-are what really count. So even the shyest person can become a chat room star.
Usually, this "faceless" communication doesn"t create problems. Identity doesn"t really matter when
you"re in a chat room discussing politics or hobbies. In fact, this emphasis on the ideas themselves makes
the Internet a great place for exciting conversation. Where else can so many people come together to
chat? But some Internet users want more than just someone to chat with. They"re looking for serious love
relationships. Is cyberspace a good place to find love? That answer depends on whom you ask. Some of
these relationships actually succeed. Others fail miserably.
Supporters of online relationships state that the Internet allows couples to get to know each other
intellectually first. Personal appearance doesn"t get in the way. But critics of online relationships argue that
no one can truly know another person in cyberspace. Why? Because the Internet gives users a lot of
control over how others view them. Internet users can carefully craft their words to fit whatever image
they want to give. And they don"t have to worry about what their "nonverbal" communication is doing for
their image. In a sense, they"re not really themselves.
All of this may be fine if the relationship stays in cyberspace. But not knowing a person is a big
problem in a love relationship. With so many unknowns, it"s easy to let one"s imagination "fill in the
blanks." This inevitably leads to disappointment when couples meet in person. How someone imagines
an online friend is often quite more different than the real person. So, before looking for love in
cyberspace, remember the advice of Internet pioneer Clifford Stoll: "Life in the real world is far richer
than anything you"ll find on a computer screen."
B. needs people to be rich in knowledge
C. puts emphasis on people"s thoughts
D. allows people to discuss politics secretly
B. one may not show the real self in cyberspace

D. it is hard to protect the other"s identity
means that .
B. the Internet makes it easy for people to imagine how others view them
C. the Internet allows people to get more information about their loved ones
D. people usually get to know each other by chance through the Internet
B. believes it hopeless to find love online

D. supports to look for love in the real life
people think it is not a good idea. There are a number of disadvantages in studying abroad. The following
paragraphs will explain why students have these views and the advantages of studying abroad will be
discussed.
Students studying abroad may suffer from racial discrimination (歧视). As they left their home
country, they will become part of a minority group in the new country. The majority group may have a
sense of superiority and try to bully them. It is common that Americans or the British discriminate against
people from other countries since many of them think that white people are better than others.
In addition, the students may lose their own cultures. Since they have moved to a new place, all the
thing there - people, lifestyle and the living environment---would be different from those in their own
country. As they will have close contact with the local people and culture, they will be influenced by the
new culture even without realizing it. It is ironic that a Chinese person speaks better English than Chinese
and forgets about Chinese culture after studying abroad for a few years.
On the other hand, studying abroad will widen the view of students. Although they may give up their
own culture, they can really learn from others. As students of the modern world , they should not limit
their scope to their home country, but get exposed to the world. Studying abroad can help them expand
their horizon and learn many things in the host country, as they will meet and make friends with people
from all over the world. So, studying abroad is good for them.
Furthermore, students will learn how to be mature and independent. Students, when in their home
country, usually rely on their parents. Statistics show that Chinese students usually rely heavily on their
parents; they will leave problems alone and ask their parents to solve them. If they are studying abroad,
on many occasions they have to learn how to cope with difficulties they meet. As a result, studying
abroad benefits them.
Moreover, the education system of the foreign country may be better than the home country"s
education system. The home country"s education system is very limited. Many teachers just spoon-feed
their students. They will ask the students to recite a lot of things and then ask them to write them down.
This choice of subjects in school, especially in secondary school, is very narrow; the students cannot
choose what they want most. But in some schools in Britain and America, students can choose from a
wider range of subjects at school. For example, media studies and corporate communications are
courses of study in some schools of those two countries. If students choose to study abroad, they may
have the opportunity to learn more things under a better education system.
All in all, studying abroad will change and influence a student in many aspects. Although it is uncertain
if the effects will be positive or negative, I believe students should seize the opportunity to study abroad
because they will meet many new things and have new experiences in the new country. If they are clever
enough, I think they can find a balance between learning about the new culture and holding onto their
own one.
B. will forget their ancestors.
C. may be treated unfair.
D. may have difficulty overcoming homesickness.
B. Students studying abroad may be influenced by the new culture unknowingly.
C. Studying abroad is much more comfortable than studying in your own country.
D. A Chinese studying abroad only needs a few years to speak excellent English.
B. Because they have to solve everything on their own.
C. Because they can recite a lot of things and write them down.
D. Because they can meet and make friends with people from around the world.
B. thinks that the effects of studying abroad will be positive and helpful.
C. has been to a foreign country to see new things and have new experience.
D. has found a balance between learning about a new culture and holding onto his own.
B. Should students leave their own country and study abroad?
C. Should students studying abroad give up their own culture?
D. Should students learn how to be mature and independent?
, including an increasing death rate due to inbreeding (同系繁殖), and the conflict between the need to
expand natural habitats and local communities" economic interests, bird experts have warned.
The crested ibis, once widespread in Japan, China, Russia and the Korean Peninsula, almost became
extinct in the first half of the 20th century.
Before 1981, when seven crested ibis were accidentally found in Yangxian county, in Northwest
China"s Shaanxi province, academics thought the species had been extinct in China for almost 17 years.
Due to the huge effort put into species protection since 1981, the number of crested ibis in China has
risen to an estimated 1,617, including 997 in the wild, the State Forestry Administration said at a meeting
on crested ibis protection in Xi"an on Monday.
However, although the ibis population exceeds 1,000, the birds are still not free from the threat of
extinction, said Fang Shengguo, director of the State Conservation Center for Gene Resources of
Endangered Wildlife at Zhejiang University.
Ornithologists used inbreeding in the early stages of protection so that numbers of the precious birds
could increase quickly, but that method had consequences, Fang said.
"Studies have proved that as a result of inbreeding, crested ibis have the lowest genetic diversity of all
endangered birds," Fang said.
"It means a high death rate and more physical defects for hatched chicks."
The government should collect genetic information from all crested ibis and establish a genetic
database as soon as possible, then design a scientific mating plan for the species, Fang said.
So far, about 90 percent of crested ibis live in Shaanxi province, and fewer than 140 ibis live in three zoos
in other parts of the country, including Beijing Zoo, according to Liu Dongping, an assistant researcher at the National Bird Banding Center of China, which is affiliated to the Chinese Academy of Forestry.
The bird has lost the ability to migrate, he said, adding that if an unexpected natural disaster occurred
in Shaanxi province or an infectious disease spread through the area, the ibis population could be greatly
reduced.
Experts also warned that the increased population of ibis, whether in the wild or in captivity, requires
a larger and more varied natural habitat.
Rampant hunting, the massive loss of habitat caused by deforestation and the overuse of pesticides,
which killed aquatic (水生的) insects on which the ibis feed, are believed to be the main reasons for the
sharp reduction in the ibis population before 1981.
So, in 1983, a State-level natural reserve was set up in Shaanxi province to protect the bird. But the
struggle for living space between human and animal has never stopped, said Lu Baozhong, deputy
director of the Shaanxi Crested Ibis Conservation Station.
"For example, ibis often look for loaches in farmers" rice fields. Sometimes their claws trample the rice
seedlings. In another case, villagers discovered some land with abundant mineral resources which
happened to be a habitat for ibis," said Lu, who has devoted 30 years to ibis protection.
A long-term win-win solution for ibis and local communities needs to be developed, one that would
provide ecological compensation for local residents, Lu said.

Wing-wah Yam says she could not have done it without the backing of her family.
The road to scientific discovery is tougher for women than for men and Professor Vivian Wing-wah
Yam says she couldn"t have succeeded without such a supportive family. The 47-year-old from Hong
Kong University was one of five women scientists, from each continent, to receive the 2011
L"Oreal-UNESCO For Women in Science Awards at a ceremony on March 3, at UNESCO
Headquarters in Paris. It is the 13th edition of the award since 1998.
Yam"s long and fruitful research on solving the energy problem won her the prize for Asia and the
Pacific. There are several renewable and sustainable(可持续的) energy solutions, like solar power,
which could provide an unlimited source of energy. Some problems must be resolved, however, such as
the low efficiency of solar cells and their high supply costs. Yam and her colleagues hope to overcome
these problems by developing and testing new photoactive(光敏的) materials.
She became the third Chinese women scientist honored with the so-called "woman"s Nobel Prize"
award, after Professor Li Fanghua from the Chinese Academy of Sciences in 2003, and Professor Ye
Ruyu from Hong Kong University of Science and Technology in 2004.
"People think chemists are bad guys, but we are the good guys," Yam said in a humorous aside
before explaining her research project on photoactive materials in an earlier speech at L"Institut de
France. For Yam, chemistry is science, but also an art. Amazed by the universe, nature and color in her
childhood, Yam decided on a career in chemistry. "One of the beauties of chemistry is the ability to
create new molecules and chemical species. I have always associated chemists with artists, creating new
things with innovative(革新的) ideas," Yam said.
As a mother of two daughters, 12 and 14, Yam said she is lucky to have been supported by her
family. She was inspired as a child by her father, a professor in the Civil Engineering Faculty at Hong
Kong University. Yam added her husband, Mak Shingtat, a PhD in chemistry, who accompanied Yam
to the awards ceremony, was also fully supportive of her work. "I can"t imagine how my career could
move on without his understanding and support," she said. "I often stay late at night in the laboratory. He
always waits for me outside."
Yam received her bachelor and PhD degrees from the University of Hong Kong (HKU). She taught
at City Polytechnic of Hong Kong before joining HKU as a faculty member, and headed the chemistry
department for two terms from 2000 to 2005. At 38, she was the youngest member elected to the
Chinese Academy of Sciences. She is also a Fellow of TWAS, the Academy of Sciences for the
Developing World, and was awarded the State Natural Science Award and the Royal Society of
Chemistry (RSC) Centenary Medal. 2011 is the 100th anniversary of Marie Curie"s second Nobel Prize,
coinciding (一致的)with the International Year of Chemistry. Today, Curie is still a role model for women
in science.
Although the participation of women in science, is promoted by UNESCO, notably through
L"Oreal-UNESCO, there are still too few women doing high-level science, says UNESCO
Director-General Irina Bokova. The latest UNESCO report shows less than 40 percent of countries
provide girls and boys equal access to education.
Each year, the L"Oreal-UNESCO For Women in Science Award recognizes 15 young women
from all over the world, especially developing countries, to encourage and finance their studies. More
than 200 young women scientists are currently supported. "I do not think there is a difference between
men and women in terms of their intellectual abilities and research capabilities (能力)," Yam said. "As
long as one has the passion, dedication and determination to pursue research wholeheartedly, one can
excel regardless of one"s gender or background."
Yam said some young women, who require stability and security, often have to give up their research
because of family pressures. "The only way for women to succeed in science is to get the mental and
material support from family and society. There is a day-care center at my university, and my husband
and mother-in-law help a lot with the housework, so I am able to spend my time on research," she said.
"I have two young daughters, and it is too early to tell whether or not they want to pursue careers in
science. But, I will encourage them to always defend their ideas. To remain determined, and to never be
afraid of failure - this is the advice that they will need to succeed in realizing their dreams."
Yam also acknowledged her colleague"s support, at the awards ceremony. "This (award) not only
recognizes me, but my colleagues and students and my country, China."
