Body paragraph 1
Notably, the need for critical thinking and autonomous learning has been thrown into sharp relief by the less hand-holding academic structures at university where professors take a backseat approach to students’ learning process, while self-expression and collaboration are emphasized as key qualities to augment one’s engagement in group assignments and seminars. Additionally, inability to juggle one’s long booklist task, self-care relaxation, adequate sleep and social life leaves many former secondary programmers disoriented and emotionally unstable. In some cases, immature international college lads suffering from homesickness may end up locking into their comfort zone, while those busy with part-time job to replenish living budge are kept at bay from classmates, feeling disconnected and isolated.

值得注意的是，对批判性思维和自主学习的需求已经被大学里不那么手把手教学的学术结构明显地突显出来，在大学里，教授在学生的学习过程处于次要位置，而学生自我表达和合作被强调为增强其参与小组作业和研讨会的关键品质。此外，无法兼顾冗长的书单任务、自我照顾放松、充足的睡眠和社交生活，使许多前高中生迷失方向，情绪不稳定。在某些情况下，受思乡之苦的不成熟的国际大学生最终可能会被困在自己的舒适区，而那些忙于兼职以补充生活预算的人则与同班同学社交隔绝，感到疏离和孤立。

Body paragraph 2
Even though worries loom over young people’s poor adaptivity , there are also solutions to mitigate this risk. Primarily, college should organize orientation to encourage proactive learning mode, for example priming freshmen with good advice from senior students in the same major; by the same token, seeking support from lecturers and tutors should be highlighted as a tool in the academic toolkit. Furthermore, monthly workshops should be run on campus for diverse needs for time management, enabling students to adopt tailored approaches to unwind stress from upcoming submission of thesis and papers. Finally, more efforts need to be made to expand students’ access to mingling with new friends by engaging with meaningful hobbies which are not study-related, since life is a reality to be experienced rather than a problem to be solved.

尽管人们担心年轻人的适应能力差，但也有办法减轻这种风险。首先，学校应该组织适应课，以便鼓励积极主动的学习模式，例如，向新生灌输来自同专业高年级学生的好建议；同样，寻求讲师和导师的支持也应该作为学术工具包中的一个工具来突出。此外，每月应在校园内举办研讨会，以满足不同的时间管理需求，使学生能够采用量身定制的方法来缓解即将提交的论文和论文的压力。最后，需要做出更多的努力，通过从事与学习无关的有意义的爱好来扩大学生结交新朋友的机会，因为生活是一种需要经历的现实，而不是一个需要解决的问题。
