If you have questions about developing your study practices,the first place to look is in our Study Guides. However,if you don't find the answers you need here, or you feel the guidance would make more sense in the situation of your own work, then you may find it helpful to talk to an adviser individually.
We offer subject-focused sessions(輔導(dǎo)課) -with friendly professional advisers. These 30-nunute sessions (longer if necessary)are "tailor-made" to your individual needs and completely secret.
What to expect from an individual advice session
Our individual advice sessions are quite informal and tailored to your needs. Your adviser will usually want to talk a bit about how your studies are going generally, and what you would like to discuss. As sessions are quite short, it's useful if you can be prepared by tlunking about this before you arrive. It will be helpful for us if you can bring any marked work that you have, so that we can see what areas of your work markers have commented on.
We aimto help you developyour skills to study more effectively andachievesubject success. So we will not correct work for you, but will help you understand what youneed to know to correct it yourself in the future. Everyone works differently, so we may make a number of suggestions - it will be up to you to try them out and see what worksest for you.
If you'd like to discuss a coursework assignment which you are currently working on,it may be helpful if you can email your work to the adviser you are seeing oefore your meeting (contact details are here), with a note sessions are quite short, you might prefer that develop your work, rather than reading it!
Please note:
Saying what you would like to discuss. Aswe spent the time discussing how you can．  We cannot pravide subject-specific advice. For this,it is best to consult your course    tutor. If you would prefer to talk to someone else, try your personal tutor, or the    Senior Tutor in your department. Your department or school office will be able to advise on who that is.
We do not proof-read work. See our guide to Effective Proof-reading to help you to develop develop your own proof-reading practices.
Study Advisers are not trained to teach English as a Foreign Language. For basic     principles relating to common errors in academic English, please see our guide to       Academic Writing. If you feel you need more detailed help, there are also links on the    Academic Writing pages to more comprehensive websites, including some with  interactive exercises.
If  English is not your first language, the In-sessional English SLrpport Programme    (IESP) provides training courses in academic writing skills, speaking skills, and  pronunciation practice.There is a smll charge for students not paying full overseas fees.

解析試題分析：
【小題1】B 推理題。根據(jù)本句These 30-nunute sessions (longer if necessary)are "tailor-made" to your individual needs and completely secret.說(shuō)明這樣的課程是適合你個(gè)人的需要并且完全是秘密的，不為人所知。故該短語(yǔ)指適合，B準(zhǔn)確。
【小題2】C 細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)第四段3,4行As sessions are quite short, it's useful if you can be prepared by thinking about this before you arrive.說(shuō)明事先思考好這樣的問(wèn)題是正確的，主要是因?yàn)闀r(shí)間太短了，故C正確。
【小題3】D 推理題。根據(jù)文章倒數(shù)第二段If  English is not your first language, the In-sessional English SLrpport Programme    (IESP) provides training courses in academic writing skills, speaking skills, and  pronunciation practice.There is a smll charge for students not paying full overseas fees.說(shuō)明如果英語(yǔ)不是母語(yǔ)的人要想學(xué)習(xí)英語(yǔ)，那么the In-sessional English SLrpport Programme會(huì)給你提供相應(yīng)的培訓(xùn)課程，故D正確。
【小題4】B 主旨大意題。本文實(shí)際上是一個(gè)廣告，向大家推薦這種私人的培訓(xùn)課程。文章在一開始提出了這個(gè)話題，然后做出了詳細(xì)的說(shuō)明，故B正確。
考點(diǎn)：課程廣告布告類短文閱讀
點(diǎn)評(píng)：本文考查了廣告類短文閱讀，介紹了一個(gè)私人培訓(xùn)學(xué)習(xí)英語(yǔ)的課程。屬于信息篩選類文章，需要考生在閱讀的時(shí)候先看文章的題目，再去閱讀短文，這樣就可以大大地提高閱讀的效率和速度。

Different people use different languages. We Chinese speak Chinese, and, most of us are learning a foreign language. But there is another kind of language we need to know --- the language of the body.
All over the world, people “talk with their hand, with their heads and with their eyes.” When Japanese people meet, they bow. When Indians meet, they put their hands together. What do American and British do? Americans are more imformal(不拘小節(jié)的) than the British. They like to be friendly. They use first names, they ask questions and they talk easily about themselves. When they sit down, they like to relax in their chairs and make themselves comfortable. British people are more reserved(保守的). They take more time to make friends. They like to know you before they ask your name.
When British or American people meet someone for the first time, they shake hands. They do not usually shake hands with people they know well. Women sometimes kiss their women friends, and men kiss women friends (on one cheek only). When a man meets a man, he just smiles, and says, “Hello.” Men do not kiss each other, or hold hands. Even fathers and sons do not often kiss each other.
【小題1】In the passsage, the writer thinks that body language is ______________.
