TEST 4
PASSAGE 3
You should spend about 20 minutes on Questions 27-40, which are based on Reading Passage 3 on the following pages.
Persistent bullying is one of the worst experiences a child can face. How can it be prevented? Peter Smith, Professor of Psychology at the University of Sheffield, directed the Sheffield Anti-Bullying Intervention Project, funded by the Department for Education.
Here he reports on his findings.
A Bullying can take a variety of forms, from the verbal - being taunted or called hurtful names - to the physical - being kicked or shoved - as well as indirect forms, such as being excluded from social groups. A survey I conducted with Irene Whitney found that in British primary schools up to a quarter of pupils reported experience of bullying, which in about one in ten cases was persistent. There was less bullying in secondary schools, with about one in twenty-five suffering persistent bullying, but these cases may be particularly recalcitrant.
B Bullying is clearly unpleasant, and can make the child experiencing it feel unworthy and depressed. In extreme cases it can even lead to suicide, though this is thankfully rare. Victimised pupils are more likely to experience difficulties with interpersonal relationships as adults, while children who persistently bully are more likely to grow up to be physically violent, and convicted of anti-social offences.
C Until recently, not much was known about the topic, and little help was available to teachers to deal with bullying. Perhaps as a consequence, schools would often deny the problem. There is no bullying at this school has been a common refrain, almost certainly untrue. Fortunately more schools are now saying: There is not much bullying here, but when it occurs we have a clear policy for dealing with it.
D Three factors are involved in this change. First is an awareness of the severity of the problem. Second, a number of resources to help tackle bullying have become available in Britain. For example, the Scottish Council for Research in Education produced a package of materials, Action Against Bullying, circulated to all schools in England and Wales as well as in Scotland in summer 1992, with a second pack, Supporting Schools Against Bullying, produced the following year. In Ireland, Guidelines on Countering Bullying Behaviour in Post-Primary Schools was published in 1993. Third, there is evidence that these materials work, and that schools can achieve something. This comes from carefully conducted before and after evaluations of interventions in schools, monitored by a research team. In Norway, after an intervention campaign was introduced nationally, an evaluation of forty-two schools suggested that, over a two-year period, bullying was halved. The Sheffield investigation, which involved sixteen primary schools and seven secondary schools, found that most schools succeeded in reducing bullying.
E Evidence suggests that a key step is to develop a policy on bullying, saying clearly what is meant by bullying, and giving explicit guidelines on what will be done if it occurs, what records will be kept, who will be informed, what sanctions will be employed. The policy should be developed through consultation, over a period of time - not just imposed from the head teachers office! Pupils, parents and staff should feel they have been involved in the policy, which needs to be disseminated and implemented effectively.
Other actions can be taken to back up the policy. There are ways of dealing with the topic through the curriculum, using video, drama and literature. These are useful for raising awareness, and can best be tied in to early phases of development, while the school is starting to discuss the issue of bullying. They are also useful in renewing the policy for new pupils, or revising it in the light of experience. But curriculum work alone may only have short-term effects; it should be an addition to policy work, not a substitute.
There are also ways of working with individual pupils, or in small groups. Assertiveness training for pupils who are liable to be victims is worthwhile, and certain approaches to group bullying such as no blame, can be useful in changing the behaviour of bullying pupils without confronting them directly, although other sanctions may be needed for those who continue with persistent bullying.
Work in the playground is important, too. One helpful step is to train lunchtime supervisors to distinguish bullying from playful fighting, and help them break up conflicts. Another possibility is to improve the playground environment, so that pupils are less likely to be led into bullying from boredom or frustration. F With these developments, schools can expect that at least the most serious kinds of bullying can largely be prevented. The more effort put in and the wider the whole school involvement, the more substantial the results are likely to be. The reduction in bullying - and the consequent improvement in pupil happiness - is surely a worthwhile objective.

參考譯文
不斷受到欺凌是孩子所面臨的最糟糕的經歷之一。如何阻止其發生呢?謝菲爾大學心理學家教授彼得史密斯在教育部的資助下組織了謝菲爾德反欺凌干預項目。以下是他的一些發現。
A 欺凌有多種方式：從口頭上的比如被嘲笑或者被叫很傷人的外號，到身體上的比如被打、被踢或推搡。此外，還有一些不太直接的欺凌方式，比如被社會團體排斥在外。在我和Irene Whitney開展的一項調查中，我們發現在英國小學中，有四分之一的小學生有過受欺凌的經歷，其中十例中有一例為持續受到欺凌。中學的欺凌現象要好一些，大約二十五例中有一例是持續受到欺凌，但是在這些情況中，受欺凌者可能反抗極其強烈。
B 欺凌顯然是很不愉快的，而且會使經歷過的孩子產生自貶和沮喪情緒。在一些極端的情況中，欺凌甚至會導致自殺，但是很慶幸的是此類事件比較罕見。受到欺凌的小學生成年後更容易在人際溝通中遭遇困難，而那些經常實施欺凌的孩子長大後更有可能具有身體暴力傾向並且犯下反社會的罪行。
C 到目前為止，我們對這一問題的了解還遠遠不夠，而且也幾乎沒有給教師提供處理欺凌問題的幫助。可能由此產生的一個現象就是學校經常會否認這一問題。在這個學校沒有欺凌的現象已經被重複了無數次，但是絕大多數情況下這都不是事實。慶幸的是現在有越來越多的學校承認：我們學校欺凌現象並不多，但是當其發生時，我們有很明確的處理方法。
D 導致這一變化有三個原因。第一是對欺凌問題嚴重性的認識;第二，在英國有一些幫助處理欺凌問題的資源。比如，蘇格蘭教育研究局發行了一系列的材料：《反欺凌行動》在1992年夏被提供給英格蘭、威爾斯和蘇格蘭地區的所有學校。第二年又發行了《支持學校反對欺凌》。在愛爾蘭地區，《在小學反抗遭遇欺凌行為指南》於1993年發行。第三，有證據表明，這些材料發揮了作用，學校也因此在反欺凌方面取得了一些成績。這一結果來自於一項研究組監控的並認真開展的主題為之前和之後的對學校干預的評估。在挪威，經過一次全國範圍的干預運動之後，對42所學校的一項評估顯示，在兩年多的時間內欺凌行為減少了一半。在謝菲爾德大學對16所小學和7所中學的一項調查中發現，大多數學校在減少欺凌行為方面取得了成功。
