You probably think you will never be a top student. This is not necessary so, however. Anyone can become a better student if he or she wants to. Heres how:1. Plan your time carefully. When you plan your week, you should make a list of things that you have to do. After making this list, you should make a schedule of your time. First your time for eating, sleeping, dressing, etc. then decide a good, regular time for studying. Dont forget to set aside enough time for entertainment. A weekly schedule may not solve all your problems, but it will force you to realize what is happening to your time.2. Find a good place to study. Look around the house for a good study area. Keep this space, which may be a desk or simply a corner of your room, free of everything but study materials. No games, radios, or television! When you sit down to study, concentrate on the subject. 3. Make good use of your time in class. Take advantage of class time to listen to everything the teachers say. Really listening in class means less work later. Taking notes will help you remember what the teacher says.4. Study regularly. When you get home from school, go over your notes. Review the important points that your teacher mentioned in class. If you know what your teacher is going to discuss the next day, read that material will become more meaningful, and you will remember it longer.5. Develop a good attitude about tests. The purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about a subject. They help you remember your new knowledge. The world wont end if you dont pass a test, so dont be overly worried. There are other methods that might help you with your studying. You will probably discover many others after you have tried these.How to become a better studentGeneral methodHow toAdvantagePlan your time carefullyMake a list Force you to realize(6) _ is happening to your timeMake a (1) _Find a good place to study Free of everything but study (2) _You can (7) _on the subjectMake good use of your time in class Listen to everything the teachers sayReally listening in class means (8) _ work laterTaking (3) _Study regularly Go over your notes (4) _ new material Help you (9) _it better , remember it longerDevelop a good attitude about tests Dont be (5) _ worried Remember your new(10) _第二节 书面表达(共1题, 满分25分)1. _ 2. _ 3. _ 4. _ 5. _6. _ 7. _
