问题     In the next few weeks, thousands of teenagers will set off cheerfully for university. Unfortunately for some, the shine soon wears off. Every year, thousands of students fail to complete their first year. On some courses at some institutions, up to 20 per cent will withdraw before June and there are very few university departments that will not lose anyone. Nigel Martin, principal of Durham’s Trevelyan College, said, "Rea-sons will vary but some youngsters decide very quickly, sometimes within 24 hours of arriving at the university, that they have made a false move. Some students go home for Christmas and decide not to return for their second term." Others simply fail to thrive. Pride, inertia or an unwillingness to disappoint their parents may keep them from talking about any difficulty, but they stop handing in coursework or going to lectures.

选项

答案 几个星期后,千百名学生会兴高采烈地踏入大学的校门。然而不幸的是,在一些学生看来,这种兴奋的感觉会很快消失。每年,都有很多学生不能顺利地上完第一个学年;有的学院的某些课程在6月份学期结束前会有高达20%的学生退出。几乎任何一所学校都有中途退学的学生。Durham’s Trevelyan学院校长Nigel Martin说:“(学生退学的)原因是多方面的,但有时候有些学生刚到学校不到一天时间就很快认定(自己来上大学)是错误的一步。有的学生圣诞节回家后就决定不再回到学校来上第2学期了。”还有的学生本来就不思进取。有的出于自尊心、惰性或不愿让父母失望的想法而不愿谈到任何困难,但他们却不交作业或逃课。
