The survey was carried out by the British Council, the council for international education, and Universities UK, an organization supporting the work of all the country's universities.
The survey revealed only 7 percent of the students said most of their friends were from the UK; 32 percent said they had a mixture of UK and international student friends; and 59 percent said their only friends were international.
Some student leaders say one reason fox' the trend is that overseas students are dedicate to their courses instead of their social lives.
In addition, many foreign students weren't interested in the pub-centered drinking culture on British campuses, according to Will MacFarlane, student union general secretary of the London School of Economies. This prevented some students who didn't pay regular trips to pubs from making new friends.
Some students think that MacFarlane's explanation is true.
"I have only one year to adapt to the new all-English environment and dealing with a full study workload. The time is so limited that I have little time to make friends with foreign students." Said one Peking University grad student who is at Oxford University.
She also admitted that an important reason for the lack of interaction is that Chinese students are usually shy, and don't take the initiative to make new friends.
MacFarlane also came forward with some suggestions on how to improve the situation. "It may be helpful if we can provide a cultural shift in university activities away from the drinking culture, and provide more activities for more groups," he said.
The survey showed that ______.

Canada's almost 10,000 boarding school students are exposed to richer and more varied programming than the public system can offer. Moreover, their days axe quite structured and students are kept busy with academics, athletics (运动) and other activities. Many boarding schools develop specialties: for instance, Brentwood College School in Mill Bay, specializes in fine arts, while Athol Murray College Notre Dame in Wilcox, has nationally recognized hockey programs for boys and girls.
Susan Hazell, who spent more than 20 years teaching in Canadian boarding schools, says that boarding schools foster (培养，鼓励) independence in students.
"They provide a safe, positive environment in which young people can take risks and attempt new things. Students get involved in activities they might not try elsewhere and they build some fabulous (难以置信的) friendships."
Canada's boarding schools include religions and secular (长期的) institutions, schools that cater to (迎合) children with special needs and single sex and co-ed (男女同校的) institutions. "Because of this variety it's important for parents to research carefully when looking for a boarding school," says Hazell.
"Try to find a school that suits your child, his/her talents and abilities. Inquire about student supervision after school hours and on weekends. Find out about the food and healthcare services. And check on the size of the dorms and how many students sleep in each room."
Why do many parents send the children to the boarding school in Canada？
Unwanted sound, or noise, such as that produced by airplanes, traffic, or industrial machinery, is considered a form. of pollution. Noise pollution is at its worst in densely populated areas. It can cause hearing loss, stress, high blood pressure, sleep loss, distraction (注意力分散), and lost productivity!
Sounds are produced, by objects that vibrate (振动), at a rate that the ear can detect. This rate is called frequency and is measured in hertz (赫兹), or vibrations per second. Most humans can hear sounds between 20 and 20,000 hertz, while dogs can hear high pitched sounds (高频声音) up to 50,000 hertz. While high frequency sounds tend to be more hazardous (危险的) and more annoying to heating than low frequency sounds, most noise pollution damage is related to the intensity of the sound. Measured in decibels (分贝), noise intensity can range from zero, the quietest sound the human ear can detect, to over 60 decibels. Conversation takes place at around 40 decibels, a subway train is about 80 decibels, and a rock concert is from 80 to 100 decibels. The intensity of a nearby jet taking off is about 110 decibels. 120 decibels axe the limit at which human beings will be aware of pain, and suffer from potential heating loss. Long lasting, high intensity sounds are the most damaging to heating and produce the most stress in humans.
Solutions to noise pollution include adding insulation and sound proofing (隔音) to doors, walls, and ceilings; using ear protection, particularly in industrial working areas; planting vegetation to absorb and screen out noise pollution; and zoning urban areas to maintain a separation between residential areas and zones of excessive noise.
Noise pollution can cause ______.
The American idea of customer service is to make each customer the center of attention. People going shopping in America can expect to be treated with respect from the very beginning. When customers get to the store, they are treated as honored guests. Customers don't usually find store clerks sitting around watching TV or playing cards. Instead, the clerks greet them warmly and offer to help them find what they want. In most stores, the signs that label each department make shopping a breeze (容易的事情). Customers usually don't have to ask how much items cost, since prices are clearly marked.
When customers are ready to check out, they find the nearest and shortest checkout lane. But as Murphy's Law would have it, whichever lane they get in, all the other lanes will move faster. Good stores open new checkout lanes when the lanes get too long. Some even Offer express lanes for customers with 10 items or less. After they pay for their purchases, customers receive a smile and a warm "thank you" from the clerk. Many stores even allow customers to take their shopping carts out to the parking lot. In that way, they don't have to carry heavy bags out to the car.
In America, customer service continues long after the sale. Many products come with a money-back guarantee, ff there is a problem with the product, customers can take it back. The customer service representative will often allow them to exchange the item or return it for a full refund.
From the passage we know in America the principle of customer service is ______.
