Common College Freshman Fears

1.I don’t know anyone there, and I’ll have problems meeting new people and making friends.

One important thing to remember is that almost everyone there is new, and virtually no one knows anyone else. Even the friendliest first-year college students know a small handful of folks, at most, before arriving on campus. Since everyone is looking to meet other people (especially during orientation and your first week), take a deep breath and introduce yourself. And just in case that doesn’t work, there are lots of other ways to meet new people on campus.

2.I don’t know how I’ll balance so many things.

Time management is one of the biggest challenges for college students. By learning some important time management skills, however, you can stay on top of your game and learn how to handle a very demanding schedule while still having fun.

3.I’m nervous about being on my own for the first time.

Good! You should be nervous; being on your own, especially for the first time, is hard. But something inside of you knows you are ready or you wouldn’t have wanted to go to college in the first place. Sure, you’ll make mistakes along the way, but you’re ready to head off on your own. And if not, there are plenty of people and support mechanisms on a college campus to help you out.

4.I don’t think I can handle all of the stress.

College is a very stressful place, but being in a stressful situation and being stressed are very different things. Managing college stress takes some practice, but is definitely manageable.

48.One important thing to remember is that almost everyone there ___.

49._____ is one of the biggest challenges for college students.

50.I’m nervous about being _____for the first time.

51.I ______ I can handle all of the stress.

52.There are ___ and support mechanisms on a college campus to help you out.

Task 4 5%

Directions:Read the following passage and complete the information by filling in the blanks mark 53 to 57 (in not more than 3 words) below. You should write your answers on the Answer Sheet correspondingly.

People enjoy taking trips. But what are the reasons they leave home? One reason is for education. People travel because they want to broaden their horizons to learn about other people and other places. They are curious about other cultures. When people are tourists, they get a quick look at different ways of living. Even a short look at another kind of lifestyle is an important lesson. On a trip, a person can learn directly by visiting museums and historic spots. What does a tourist learn when he sees the art museums, visits the historical places and other scenic spots in Paris and shops along the river Seine? He gets a vivid picture, a real life of the French people. He learns about their attitudes, how they feel about business, beauty and history. What about the tourist who goes to Hong Kong? Does he get the same information that he could get from a book? He might read that Hong Kong is crowded, that there is less than 200 square meters of space for each person. But seeing and feeling the lack of space will impress him much more. He might read that there are nearly 200 vehicles for every kilometer of roadway. But the sight of so many vehicles parked along the roadside would be a much more vivid lesson. The tourist to Hong Kong will never forget the contrasts: the straight vertical lines of tall modern buildings and the moving lines of boats that people live in.

53. People travel to other places because they want to learn aboutand other places.

54. There are many museums, ____, scenic spots and shops in Paris.

55. A person will know something about Hong Kongwithout being there.

56. The old proverb is ____ which can be used to express the sentence “People won’t believe the de

scription of Hong Kong until they see it?”

57. The contrasts that the tourist to Hong Kong will never forget are the strait vertical lines of ______and the moving lines of boats that people live in.
