    FOR Chinese students the end of their senior year is filled with studying and stress as they prepare for the college entrance exams in June.But for American high school seniors the experience couldn’t be more different. The end of senior year is a celebration of their time in high school and involves parties,games and fun.
    Senioritis is a commonly used expression.It means seniors have a disease which makes them unable to do work.This starts in April when seniors find out whether they have been accepted to university.
    Unwilling to do school work,seniors have plenty of other activities to focus on.
    Many schools have a “Senior Show”,in which only seniors are allowed to perform.Some seniors sing or dance but many of them perform skits（滑稽短剧），where they make fun of their favorite teachers or their friends.For example,a group of boys may dress up and imitate a group of their friends.It is all light-hearted.
    The“Senior Show”is usually a part of Senior Week,which is a week specifically dedicated(专用的) to seniors.During this week,seniors usually get academic or athletic awards they have won over their high school careers.The seniors also vote for one of their male and female classmates who they believe is the best-looking or funniest or most involved,etc.These are then published in the yearbook.
    The yearbook is an important part of high school for seniors.It is usually dedicated to them and has all their pictures and some words from them in it.Then seniors go around and get it signed by their friends so they can always remember their time together.
    Of course during all of this time,seniors are preparing for the Senior Prom,which is an important moment in American culture.It is the most important dance in a young American’s life.
    The end of senior year is a truly special and wonderful time for American students.It’s something they will remember for the rest of their lives.

         Ever felt like destroying the car in front of you when you're
    stuck in an endless traffic jam?
         Well ,the Spanish company StopStress is offering clients(客户 )
    the possibility of doing just that-but in controlled ,safe conditions.
         Clients can also destroy computers, mobile phones and TV sets
    in what the company calls" destructible therapy" ( therapy : treatment
    of a medical disorder).
         "We target the machines that cause the most stress in modern
    life,"company co-founder Jorge Arribas said in a telephone inter-
    view. "People get rid of stress by screaming and beating the ma-
    chines until they are tired out. "he explained.
         The company, based in the northern Spanish city of Soria, uses
    deserted cars that still work. Heavy-metal music is used to excite
    the clients. They are given protective suits and glasses, helmets and
    huge hammers.
         Most people's rage only lasts for 5 to 10 minutes. But some go
    on for hours : they beat cars on which they've put the names of people
    or ideas they would like to get rid of.
         "Some even get together to turn the car over, "Arribas says. A
    session costs 60 euros(US $80)per person.
         Arribas says the idea came to him when he was having trouble
    parking his car.
         "Dozens of people have used the therapy, which helps people
    become aware of their stress level and helps them to slow down,"
    Arribas explained.
         "It's better to channel violence in a controlled way than to get
    it out on one's husband and wife or in a traffic jam. "he added.
         StopStress already has branches in three Spanish cities, and is
    planning to extend its market beyond Spain's borders.
