that the Internet has one thing in mon with cheating during exams:they both can get you kicked out of school.Of the 237 students of East China University of Science and Technology who are dropping out of school or transferring to lesser colleges this year,80 percent blame their academic failure on excessive use of the Internet.At Shanghai Jiaotong University,some one third of the 205 school dropouts this year say the endless hours spent before puters have led to their failure in studies.Easy and fast Internet connections installed on college campuses in recent years have provided great convenience for college students.But many students are getting carried away by being obsessively fond of surfing the Webdays and nights.Apart from accessing emails and looking up data online,many students spend hours playing interactive games and chatting.Reading and posting articles on college bulletin boards(BBS) can also eat up hours each night.Similar problems have surfaced in Beijing,where Web connections in student dorms have so far been the privilege of a relatively small number of students,mostly postgraduate students from leading institutes.Some of them even have to quit school because of their obsession with browsing the Web.They skip all their classes at that time and sat before the puter for at least 10 hours a day.They spent most of their time online chatting with friends all over the country using the popular software OICQ,or visiting the college BBS.Internet cafes in Beijing usually charge between five and ten yuan per hour.Even for students from better-off families,spending a few relaxing hours at the cafe for several days could result in a heavy deficit on their monthly budget.And worse things are yet to e:several Internet bars in Beijing were fined in early November when police found pornographic content in the puters.Although many internet cafes prohibit their customers from visiting porn sites or playing games online,many customers,including college students,manage to do so for hours every night.Officials with the two Shanghai universities say school authorities are taking mild measures to deal with potential dropout students.They may consider giving them a second chance.But its basically up to the students themselves to avoid the addiction to the Web.Like any other new thing,it gives you a shock at first encounter.As we get more used to the Internet as part of our campus life,we tend to get more rational about it.2.How to solve the personal problemsSome people who find themselves unable to solve a problem react by just giving up.But it is not good to escape from problems by giving up or by making excuses for failures.You may be sure that all young people go through the same difficult process that you are going through;meeting new situations,developing new skills,and testing their abilities.If you are unhappy about something,face it.Try to state the problem in a few words,so that you will know exactly what you are up against.Then see if you can “put your finger” on the cause of your unhappiness.In many cases,we only “think” there is no solution to a particular problem.But often we can overe problem and achieve the goal by making a direct attack.For example,a boy wanted to be a debater(讨论家).When he tried out for the debating team as a freshman,the coach thought he was hopeless.He was shy;he had a high-pitched voice;and his posture was poor.Although he was given little hope of success,he took advantage of every opportunity to debate.He studied successful speakers and sized up his own weakness and assets.Then he spent many hours learning all the fact on the topics for debate,and worked at developing good posture and at speaking clearly.By his junior year,he made the school debating team,and in his senior year he was on the winning team in his state.He achieved his goal because he had made a direct attack upon his problem.Although direct attack is often the best way to meet problems,we have to be realistic(现实的) in judging situations.Sometimes it is necessary to change either the tactics or the goal.A boy who wants to be a great football player may be too light and not quite fast enough for football.In this situation,being a great football player may be an unreasonable goal for him.However,he may bee outstanding in tennis or golf,and satisfy his desire to take part in sports.A girl who has plain features may decide that she cannot win popularity(声望) with her face,and so she may try to develop an interesting personality,which eventually will get her much further.In this situation,she must change her method of achieving her goal.So,although direct attack is often the best way to handle problems,it is important to study the situation and make a wise decision about what to do.Teaching Time:Four periodsThe First PeriodTeaching Aims:1.Talk about youth culture and interests of young people to improve the students speaking ability.2.Do some listening
