《京华时报》周一报道称，网上一组高考班同学晚自习集体在复习时打吊瓶的图片引起热议，这一事件正在调查中。

教室半空中挂着很多吊瓶，有30多名学生在打点滴注射氨基酸，这些学生或是站着或是坐着。这一幕发生在湖北省孝感市孝感第一中学，学生们当时正在上晚自习。

　　【讲解】

文中的“taking intravenous injections”就是“打吊瓶”的意思，“intravenous injections”是指“静脉输液”，“intravenous drips”也是这个意思。“intravenous”是指“静脉的”，常缩写为“IV”。文中的“amino acid”是指“氨基酸”。文中的“the National College Entrance Exam”就是指“高考”(gaokao)。
