20、at him, who was standing there with expectation. Memories flashed through her mind.

25、 workers. They appear to be busy, moving around their homes, or hives (蜂窝). So you might say you were as busy as a bee if you spent your weekend cleaning your house. In fact, you might say your house was a beehive of activity if your whole family was helping you clean. You also might say you made a

26、beeline for something if you went there right away. When we go to see a movie, my friend always makes a beeline for the place where they sell popcorn (爆米花) . Here is an expression about bees that is not used much any more, but we like it anyway. We think it was first used in the 1920s. If something

27、was the best of its kind, you might say it was the bees knees. Now, we admit that we do not know how this expression developed. In fact, we do not even know if bees have knees!

28、onnet (女帽). If someone asks you a personal question, you might say “that is none of your beeswax. This means none of your business.

D To advise readers to buy their books.DMy students often tell me that they dont have “enough time to do all their schoolwork.My reply is often a brief “You have as much time as the pres

40、ident. I usually carry on a bit about there being twenty-four hours in the day for everyone, and suggest that “not enough time is not an acceptable explanation of not getting something done.Once in graduate school, I tried to prove to one of my professors by saying that I was working hard. His answe

41、r to me was, “Thats irrelevant (无关的). Whats important is the quality of your work. Since then I have had time to think carefully about the “hard worker dodge (诀窍), and I have come to some conclusions all relevant to the problem of how much time we have.If you analyze the matter, you can identify two

42、 parts of the problem: There is, of course, the matter of “time, which we can think of as fixed. Then there is the problem of “work during that time. But, as my professor suggested, its not how hard one works but the quality of the product thats important.That led me to a new idea: the quality of th

43、e work. That concept is perhaps best explained by a sign I once saw on the wall in someones office: “Dont work harder. Work smarter. There is a lot of sense in that idea.If you cant get more time, and few of us can, the only solution is to improve the quality of the work. That means thinking of ways

44、 to get more out of the same time than we might otherwise get. That should lead us to an analysis of our work habits. Since “work for students usually means “homework, the expression “work habits should be read as “study habits.Then, as a smart student, you will seek to improve those skills that you

45、 use in study, chiefly reading and writing. If you learn to read better and write better, there are big benefits that pay off in all your studies.53.
