It is often considered that the schoolyard is where bullies(欺负)go to make other kids a miserable
school life, but a new study suggests that classrooms are another popular place.
The study,presented recently at the American Public Health Association's yearly meeting in
Philadelphia,is based on the results of the research from more than 10,000 middleschool students who
answered questions online.
Of those researched,43%said they'd been physically bullied within the last month.A bit more than half
said they'd been laughed at in an unfriendly way, and half reported being called hurtful names.About
onethird said groups had excluded (排斥)them to hurt their feelings.28% said their belongings had been
taken or broken；21%said someone threatened to hurt them.According to the results,twothirds of the
students said they'd been bullied in more than one way over the previous month.
The study authors mentioned that 8% of the students who answered said they'd missed school at least
once during the school year because of fear of being bullied. 25% said they'd taken other actions,such
as missing recess(课间),not going to the bathroom or lunch,missing classes,or staying away from some
area of the school to escape from experiencing a bully.
