16、about Jonathan,” I said.“I do,” she said, touching the sleeve of my blouse. “Today your son walked straight over to that child. I watched him hand her some pretty pink flowers and whisper, I love you.“I felt my heart swell with pride for what my son had done. I smiled at the teacher. “Thank you,” I

24、uates end up doing something they are overqualified for. With the increasing costs of university, students begin to ask themselves whether a degree path is the best route into a career, There is a need for much better career advice and guidance into employment in addition to university education.But
25、 other new research says that a degree will in the long run, earn you more. However there are differences in your earning potential. Dr Jack Britton says that “graduates of the 24 Russell Group universities earn an average of 33,500 after five years - about 40% more than those who studied at other u
26、niversities.”However, it has found its not just the location but other factors that can play a part in what you can earn, such as the subject a student chooses to study. It discovered that five years after graduation, the income gap between students who studied the subjects that attract the highest
27、and lowest salaries can be considerable. Graduates in subjects such as law, medicine, dentistry as well, tend to do well. And as they progress, the pay gap between these careers and others, such as the creative arts, widens. There are factors too that influence what you might earn: Five years after
28、graduation, men earn on average 14% more than women. Also, a students social background can have an effect, with those from better-off household much more likely to go to university and particularly a good one.But if you still feel university doesnt deliver the best opportunities then there are enco

33、(VR) to treat medical conditions from social anxiety to Alzheimers disease.Riding a wave of interest in mental health tech, companies creating VR content for treatment are receiving a flood of attention and funding. And, while VR has been used successfully to treat post-traumatic stress disorder (PT
34、SD) since the 1990s, these new programs address a much broader range of conditions. The library of Palo Alto-based Limbix, for instance, includes VR content designed to treat issues including alcohol addiction and teenage depression.

35、ys VR content is primarily designed to aid exposure treatment, a treatment for anxiety disorders in which patients are exposed to the “threats” theyre worried about in a safe, controlled environment, eventually learning that the “threats” are not actually very dangerous. For example, someone who fea

37、tors much more control over the intensity(强度)of their patients experiences, which can lead to better treatment outcomes, said Stephane Bouchard, a professor at the University of Quebec. VR treatment patients can also do things they couldnt do in the real world. “In one of our studies, we asked patie
38、nts who are afraid of heights to actually jump from a cliff,” Bouchard said.However, not all VR treatment content is created equal. “Some companies show videos of VR environments that are incomplete, untested and definitely havent been tried out by psychologists,” Bouchard said. Clearer rules and st
