During their gap year, American students either engage in advanced academic courses or do some volunteer work to improve their knowledge, maturity, decision-making, leadership, independence, self-sufficiency and more, thus improving their résumés before going to college. British and European students, however, take a much more holiday-style approach to the gap year by generally working for 3–6 months and then travelling around the world before college begins. This is intended to expand their minds, personal confidence, experiences and interests prior to college. It is a much less structured approach than taken in the United States, and is generally viewed by parents as a formative year for young adults to become independent and learn a great deal of responsibility prior to engaging in university life. 如今，间隔年最为普遍的含义是指上大学前的一年。在这一年中，美国学生或是学习高级学 术类课程，或是做一些志愿服务，以此来提高自己的知识水平、成熟度、决策力、领导力、 独立性、自给自足以及多方面的能力，力求在上大学之前让自己的简历变得更加完善。然而， 英国和欧洲的学生更倾向于把间隔年当作假期来看待。他们通常用 3-6 个月的时间打打工， 然后利用剩余的时间在大学开学前环球旅行。这样，在上大学前，他们可以增长见识，提升 自信，丰富阅历，培养兴趣。与美国的间隔年不同，英国和欧洲的做法没有那么周密的安排。 家长们通常把间隔年看作是年轻人成长起来的一年，他们在开始大学生活之前变得独立，并 学会承担很多责任。 7 Translate the paragraph into English. 今天，很多中国的大学非常重视培养学生的创新意识和创业精神（entrepreneurship）。很 多知名大学与多家公司建立长期的合作关系。这些公司会定期从大学中录用合格的毕业生。 此外，有些校友还创建启动资金，支持学生创办自己的企业。一些大学的校长表示，创业与 学习并不矛盾，鼓励学生创业可以帮助他们将专业知识应用于实践，提升自身的竞争力 （competitiveness）。 Today, many Chinese universities attach great importance to cultivating innovation awareness and entrepreneurship.

In the United States, the vast majority of Americans live with people to whom they are related by blood or marriage. Most American couples have two or three children, though larger families are not unusual. Typically, the family consists of parents and their minor children. Middle-aged and elderly people generally do not live with their married children. However, parents usually keep in close contact with their grown children. On holidays, members of the larger family group — grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins — often dine together. In the past, very few people would have liked living with their parents beyond childhood. But recently, more and more young American people have been returning home after graduating from college. Some of them decide to stay home and save money while working hard toward the day they can establish a home of their own. This is a practical decision, as so much work — academic and professional — is needed today in order to become self-sufficient
