Many students often say that they don't have “ enough time” to do all their schoolwork.
My _________ is often brief, “You have as much time as the president.” I usually carry on a bit about there being twenty-four hours in the day for _________ , and suggest that “not enough time” is not an _________ explanation of not getting something _________ .
_________ in graduate school, I tried to prove to one of my professors _________saying that I was working hard. His answer to me was, “That's irrelevant. _________ is important is the _________ of your work. ” Since then I have had time to think carefully about the _________ of “ hard worker” ,and I have come to some _________ — all relevant to the problem of how much time we have.
If you analyze the matter, you can identify two parts of the problem: There is, _________ , the matter of “ time” , which we can think of as _________ . Then there is the problem of “work” during that time. But, as my professor suggested, it's not how hard one works_________ the quality of the product that's important.
That led me to a new idea: the quality of the work. That _________ is perhaps best explained by a sign I once saw on the wall in someone's office: “Don't work harder. Work smarter. ”There are a lot of_________in that idea.
If you can't get more time, and few of us can, the only solution is to improve the quality of the work. That means thinking of _________ to get more out of the same time than we might otherwise get. That should lead us to an analysis of our working habits. Since “work” for students usually means “homework”, the expression “working” habits should be read as “ _________ habits”.
Then, as a smart student, you will _________ to improve those skills that you use in study, _________ reading and writing. If you learn to read better and write better, there are big benefits that _________ in all your studies.

A student's life is never easy. 1. A lot of preparations are needed so you can be sure to go back home with a diploma and a bright future waiting for you. The following are some basic things you need to do before even seizing that passport and boarding on the plane.
Knowing the country.

It'll be helpful to read the most important points in their history and to read up on their culture. 2. You surely don't want to face legal problems, especially if you're away from home.
Studying their language.
Don't expect that you can graduate abroad without knowing even the basics of the language. Before leaving your home country , take online lessons to at least master some of their words and sentences. 3. Doing this will also prepare you in communicating with those who can't speak English.
4. Check the conversion (兑换) of your money to their local currency, set up your bank account so you can use it there, get an insurance, and find an apartment. The Internet or your intended school will be very helpful in finding an apartment and helping you understand local currency.

Food serves as a form of communication in two fundamental ways. Sharing bread or other foods is a common human tradition that can promote unity and trust. Food can also have a specific meaning, and play a significant role in a family or culture's celebrations or traditions. The foods we eat—and when and how we eat them—are often unique to a particular culture or may even differ between rural and urban areas within one country.
Sharing bread, whether during a special occasion or at the family dinner table, is a common symbol of togetherness. Many cultures also celebrate birthdays and marriages with cakes that are cut and shared among the guests. Early forms of cake were simply a kind of bread, so this tradition has its roots in the custom of sharing bread.
Food also plays an important role in many New Year celebrations. In the southern United States, pieces of corn bread represent blocks of gold for prosperity in the New Year. In Greece, people share a special cake called vasilopita. A coin is put into the cake, which signifies success in the New Year for the person who receives it.
Many cultures have ceremonies to celebrate the birth of a child, and food can play a significant role. In China, when a baby is one month old, families name and welcome their child in a celebration that includes giving red-colored eggs to guests. In many cultures, round foods such as grapes, bread, and moon cakes are eaten at welcome celebrations to represent family unity.
Nutrition is necessary for life, so it is not surprising that food is such an important part of different cultures around the world.

Mu Yumin had no idea that when he stopped by the computer club as a freshman looking for something fun, it would decide his career four years later. The 22-year-old biology major at Huazhong University of Science and Technology found a job as an IT technician in Shanghai. “My experience in the club gave me another ‘diploma’,” said Mu. “ More importantly, I found something I am good at and can make a living from. ”
Now campuses around the country have started recruiting (招收) fresh faces for all kinds of clubs. Upperclassmen and experts suggest a hobby-based choice of clubs, which might have a lasting impact on one' s life and career. Zhang Ling did not get many chances to write stories as an environmental protection major at Jiangxi University of Science and Technology. But this changed when she joined the university broadcasting station. Her daily interviews with students and teachers expanded her horizons. Now she is determined to become a journalist on environmental issues with her degree in environmental protection.” “Journalism changed my life track,” said the 22-year-old girl. “I only wanted to be a science teacher in a local senior high school. But now I am applying for a graduate school in journalism. ”
Lan Yujie, a professor at Anhui University of Technology, regards Mu and Zhang as good examples of choosing “what I like” instead of “what is practical” in finding jobs and seeking further study. “Some freshmen don't know what to choose,” said Lan. “Just following a hobby and doing something you like can easily give you the experiences that make you happy and special. ”
Lan further says that joining clubs should not necessarily have a purpose. As part of campus life, a club experience will impact one's life and career in one way or another. “The point of clubs is to have as many diverse experiences as possible so that students can explore more of their life,” said Lan.
