【趣谈英国】国内无法体会的社交派对

Freshers Week? What is it?
新生周?什么是新生周?

Freshers Week is the term that UK universities and colleges give to the period immediately before the beginning of a new academic year.
新生周,顾名思义,就是指英国的大学和学院开学前的第一个星期。

Its purpose is to give new students a chance to meet their housemates, make new friends and sort out administration tasks such as opening student bank accounts. Freshers week is usually based around a series of social events such as discos, live bands, parties…and a Freshers Week Ball.
新生周给新生机会去认识室友,交新朋友,完成一些行政相关事宜比如开一个银行账户之类的。在新生周通常会举办一系列的社交活动,比如舞会和演唱会以及聚会。

As well as providing a chance to learn about the university, Fresher's week allows students to become familiar with the representatives of their Student Union and to get to know the city or town which is home to the university, often through some form of pub crawl.
作为新生周的重要作用,新生周也为学生提供一个了解自己的大学和学生会代表的机会,借此机会他们也会通过泡吧等方式对自己大学所在的城市更为了解。

Freshers Week is crucial…
新生周非常关键

The people you meet during this period will probably remain your friends through studies and beyond.
你在这段时间结识的朋友也许将会一直陪伴你日后的求学生涯,甚至更为久远。

What to do...
新生周该做什么?

Live music is common, as are a number of organized social gatherings especially designed to allow freshers to make new friends and to get to know their course colleagues. Because of the intensity of activities, there are often many new friendships made, especially in group accommodation, some which do not last past Freshers Week and others that last for the whole University career and longer.
音乐会非常常见,因为会有若干个社团组织这样的聚会,这些聚会都是为了让新生结交新朋友,同时对学习方面的相关人士更为熟悉。由于这些聚会的密集程度非常高,因此会产生众多的交友机会,尤其是在公寓中举行的,这些友谊有些无法延伸到新生周之后,但是有些却可以长达整个留学生涯,甚至到离开学校之后。

Typically a Freshers' Fair for student clubs and societies is included as part of the activities to introduce new students to facilities on offer, typically outside their course of study, such as societies, clubs, sport, etc.
对学生社团来说,新生会是向学生介绍学校设施的一个重要途径。而且大多不局限于新生的学科,同时也会涉及社团、俱乐部、体育等等。

Fancy dress to impress
穿得漂亮些哦

Fancy dress gear for such occasions is essential. Taking more than one old school tie or hula-girl grass skirt will make you an invaluable person to know.
一套得体的衣服在这种场合扮演重要的角色。如果你只是戴了老旧的高中领带,或者扶桑花裙子,那么你会成为一个不值得认识的人。
