Truth be told, a life-changing college experience doesn't begin or end with a high GPA or great university tour. And although parents and teachers alike work diligently to prep their students with the cutting-edge classes and impressive transcripts, they're forgetting one vital skill: emotional intelligence.A poll of 1,502 first-year college students in the US found that a majority of them wish they had received more emotional preparation for college. The pollsters defined emotional preparedness as "the ability to take care of oneself, adapt to new environments, control negative emotions or behavior and build positive relationships," according to the survey."Survey data indicate that college readiness requires far more than just a solid academic foundation – a finding that seems counter to conventional higher education preparation," said John MacPhee, Executive Director of the JED Foundation, which co-sponsored (赞助,发起) the survey. "It is clear that emotional preparedness should be better integrated into the work that high school communities are doing to guide students through the transition into college."Data shows that college students worry about far more than their academics – and their stress can take a serious toll (影响) on their performance in school. 40 percent of survey participants felt pressure to pay for college expenses, followed by 30 percent who said making new friends was their biggest challenge. Keeping in touch with family and friends not at their college (28 percent) and being independent (16 percent) also weighed heavily on college students' shoulders.All of these pressures had a negative impact inside and outside of the classroom. Students who felt less emotionally prepared for college were more likely to have a lower grade point average, regularly consume drugs and / or alcohol, and rate their overall college experience as terrible or poor.Thankfully, whether your child is packing up for school this fall or still in diapers (尿布), it's never too late (or too early!) to begin prepping them for university life(1) (单选题)Which of the following is NOT mentioned in Paragraph 2 as the definition of emotional preparedness by pollsters?A.Creating strong and powerful relationships.B.Forming a person's character.C.Learning to grow in a brand-new environment.D.ealing with unpleasant feeling.(2) (单选题)The underlined word "conventional" in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to ______.A.convenientB.carefulC.conservativeD.traditional(3) (单选题)According to Paragraph 4, which of the following has the biggest influence on students's performance in school?A.To be financially independent.B.To learn how to make decisions by themselves.C.To be mature and stand on their own feet.D.To start new friendships.(4) (单选题)Which of the following CANNOT be inferred for the fully emotionally prepared students?A.They tend to achieve higher academic results.B.They seldom abuse drugs and drinks.C.They will be more adaptable and competitive in future workplace.D.They are more likely to have higher satisfaction about college life(5) (单选题)What is the main idea of the passage?A.How to communicate well with college-bound students.B.How to study in the college without parents' guide.C.How to enjoy exciting and liberating college life.D.How to help students adapt to university mentally.
