19、mmigrants studying in the United States. Making friends is a challenge (this is also true for some American students). Many colleges and universities offer a variety of student clubs and organizations where both foreign-born and native American students have a greater chance of meeting people with s
20、hared interests. Information about these out-of-class activities is often posted in the student center and listed in the student newspaper. Sometimes foreign students and immigrant students find Americans to be “cliquish (有派性的 )“. (Americans find some non-U.S.-born students to be cliquish as well.)
21、If people feel separated from the social aspects of American college life, they should actively seek people with shared interests. Its unlikely that students will make friends just by passing people on the campus. Foreign or immigrant students may feel confused during the first few weeks at a new sc
22、hool because they do not understand the system and are not willing to ask questions. Many students do not take advantage of the numerous services offered on campus that assist students in developing new skills and social groups. Some colleges offer students tutorial (辅导的 ) support in such subjects a
23、s writing, language study, computer skills, and other basic subjects. Students who appear to be most successful in “learning the ropes“ are those who can solve problems by taking the initiative to ask questions, locate resources, and experience new social situations. 36 In the United States, student

25、y have difficulty in_. （ A） joining social activities within the campus （ B） being easily accepted by the university （ C） finding people with various interests （ D） getting a job in American society 38 When they first come to college, some foreign students may feel confused because_. （ A） they are d

29、to the injured or sick as soon as possible after an accident or illness. It is this immediate care and attention before the arrival of the ambulance (急救车 ) that sometimes means the difference between life and death, or a full or partial recovery. First aid has limitations, as not everybody is a doct
30、or or expert, but it is a key element of the total medical system. The principle to be adopted in first aid is immediate action. Bystanders (旁观者 ) or relatives not knowing what to do, or being too fearful to try, have unwisely contributed to unnecessary deaths and worse injuries. It is important tha
31、t any action taken by the first aid provider is started as quickly as possible. Quick action is necessary to save life and parts of the body. One who is not breathing effectively, or is bleeding (流血 ) heavily, requires immediate help. If quick effective first aid is provided, then they have a much b
32、etter chance of a good recovery. But it should be remembered that any action taken is to be most careful, and fright (恐慌 ) by the first aid provider and by-standers will not be good to the whole thing. Try to remain calm and think your actions through. A calm and controlled first aider will give eve
33、ryone confidence that the event is being handled efficiently and effectively. 41 The writer seems to suggest that if you dont know much about first aid, you should _. （ A） call for help from professionals （ B） still try to help （ C） stand by and not try to help （ D） learn it from a doctor 42 Accordi

35、first aid to the injured without knowing the cause of the accident. （ B） It is easy to carry out first aid if one has the necessary facilities. （ C） First aid is an important part of the whole treatment. （ D） First aid may not be effective before a doctor or expert comes. 44 The most important thing
36、 in providing first aid is to _. （ A） call for an ambulance （ B） prevent bleeding （ C） know what to do （ D） act quickly 45 While offering first aid, helper should_. （ A） be self-controlled （ B） have others to assist him （ C） have confidence in the sick person （ D） get rid of the by-standers Task 3 D
