如今,间隔年最为普遍的含义是指上大学前的一年。
在这一年中,美国学生或是学习高级学术类课程,或是做一些志愿服务,以此来提高自己的知识水平、成熟度、决策力、领导力、独立性、自给自足以及多方面的能力,力求在上大学之前让自己的简历变得更加完善。
然而,英国和欧洲的学生更倾向于把间隔年当作假期来看待。
他们通常用3—6个月的时间打打工,然后利用剩余的时间在大学开学前环球旅行。
这样,在上大学前,他们可以增长见识,提升自信,丰富阅历,培养兴趣。
与美国的间隔年不同,英国和欧洲的做法没有那么周密的安排。
家长们通常把间隔年看作是年轻人成长起来的一年,他们在开始大学生活之前变得独立,并学会承担很多责任。

今天,很多中国的大学非常重视培养学生的创新意识和创业精神(entrepreneurship)。
很多知名大学与多家公司建立长期的合作关系。
这些公司会定期从大学中录用合格的毕业生。
此外,有些校友还创建启动资金,支持学生创办自己的企业。
一些大学的校长表示,创业与学习并不矛盾,鼓励学生创业可以帮助他们将专业知识应用于实践,提升自身的竞争力(competitiveness)。

餐桌礼仪是就餐者必须遵守的礼仪规范。
在英国,要等到所有的饭菜端上桌、所有的就餐者都就座后,男主人或女主人才带头开始吃。
应该在尝过饭菜之后再加盐和胡椒。
可以用黄油刀从黄油盘中取一些黄油放在小寸盘中,这样可以防止黄油在盘子传递的过程中粘上面包屑。
不要探起身子隔着人去拿食物或其他东西,这样做不礼貌。
