According to a study conducted last April, female seniors studying at Boston College left the university with lower self-confidence than when they entered as freshmen.

The study, administered by the Office of Institutional Research, Planning and Assessment at Boston College, examined two surveys: the first of which was taken by students during their freshman year, and the second of which was taken by students exiting their senior year.

Despite reports of high academic achievement, most female students gave themselves weaker self-evaluations in the second y Clark, a senior and founder of the Boston College chapter (分会) of I AM THAT GIRL, a female-empowerment (赋权) community, says the finding is "startling".

Clark hopes to change the trend by creating an open community that will ignite (点燃) confidence and empowerment in young women.

I AM THAT GIRL, a global community which aims to help girls turn their self-doubt into self-love, is all about celebrating women's unique selves, Clark says.

"I AM THAT GIRL helps girls turn their stories of struggle and adversity (逆境) into stories of

connectedness and empowerment and feeling good about themselves," Clark says. "I think that all high school girls at one time or another can relate to the feeling of not being good enough."

To help young girls overcome these feelings, Clark says I AM THAT GIRL at Boston College' which

boasts 100 members in its first registered year on campus, holds weekly meetings offering a "safe space" for college students in which they can discuss topics like body image, relationships, family dynamics and finding one's passions.

Maria Pascucci, the founder of Campus Calm, a national organization that aims to help college women lead healthy, happy lives, says females feel the pressure to be perfect on a regular basis. She added that the media sends mixed messages to young girls, advising them to be the best they can be while simultaneously persuading them to buy more and strive for more.

"In our society, being a perfectionist is a glorified and socially acceptable form of self-abuse," Pascucci says.

Pascucci, who was teased as a young girl and suffered self-esteem issues, says her main message to young gifts is to let them know their sense of worth comes from within.

"When we begin to compare ourselves to others, especially when we're vulnerable, that can do a lot of damage to our self-esteem," she says.

Clark echoes Pascucci's point, saying it's important to let young girls know that their physical

appearance is only "one slice of the pie".

"Girls have a lot to bring to the table," Clark says, "and that's looking past physical beauty and just celebrating something unique within yourself that isn't so apparent."

What can we learn about the female seniors at Boston College?

took two surveys at the same time.

had improved theft academic performance.

had lost some confidence in themselves.

always feel the pressure to be perfect.

3、根据以下内容回答题

Takanori Shibata began working on robots in the early 1990s, he had something practical in mind, perhaps to help the elderly with their daily chores. soon realized that robots were not really able to do anything useful, so he decided to make a robot that did not even try--but that could nevertheless deliver real benefits.

B. The result of his labors, Paro, has been in development since 1998. It is 57cm long and looks like a baby seal. Thanks to an array of sub-skin sensors, it responds amiably to stroking; and though it cannot walk, it can turn its head at the sound of a human voice and tell one voice from another. It is a comforting and gentle presence in your arms, on your lap or on a table top, where it gives the impression of following a conversation. The best thing about it is that it seems to be helping in the care of people with dementia (痴呆) and other health problems.

C) You could see Paro as a very well-designed $5,000 pet that will never turn on the person holding it, and will never be hurt if its master flies into a rage. It is as happy on one lap as the next, needs no house-training, can be easily washed and will not die. This makes it much more practical for a nursing home or hospital than a live pet. It is used in such homes in Japan, in parts of Europe and in America.
