Students usually have great fun during the vacation. When it’s time to return to school, they usually feel sad. 1.It can be hard to adjust from the dog days of a long vacation to the busy and fast pace of the school year. Here are some tips to get back into the school mode and start this year in a right way.
2.I highly suggest getting folders and binders(活页来)with patterns and designs to make note taking more fun. During the first day of class most teachers will tell you everything they require for their courses. Make sure that you get the specified supplies so that you are able to keep up with the class work and stay organized.
Get an agenda. The school year is such a busy time. Between taking tests, doing homework, and attending activities and school events, it can be really hard to keep track of everything. By keeping an updated agenda you can better mange your time. 3.Time management is the key to being successful and staying on top of everything you need to do.
4.It is very important to know what your teachers are expecting from you. Pay attention to what the teacher is saying about the workload of the class and what they are hoping for you to get out of it. Knowing their expectations and achieving them will help your year start smoothly. Always remember that communicating with your teachers is the key to understanding their expectations.
Make a list of your academic goals. Write out a list of goals that you want to achieve for the upcoming school year. Do you want to play the lead role in they play, have a wonderful performance on the basketball team or improve your grades? When you write down the goals, you are able to plan and know what you need to do to prepare for them. 5.

B. Prepare folders and binders for your classes.
C. Remember where there is a will, there is a way.
D. You can also know what you have to accomplish
E. You can reach all the goals you have set for this year

I had an experience some years ago, which taught me something about the ways in which people make a bad situation worse by blaming themselves. One January, I had to hold two funerals on days in a row for two elderly women in my community. Both had died “ full of years”, as the Bible would say. Their homes happened to be near each other, so I paid condolence(吊唁) calls on the two families on the same afternoon.
At the first home, the son of the deceased(已故的)woman said to me, “ If only I had sent my mother to Florida and gotten her out of this cold and snow, she would be alive today. It’s my fault that she died.” At the second home, the son of the other deceased woman said, “ If only I hadn’t insisted on my mother’s going to Florida, she would be alive today. That long airplane ride, the sudden change of climate, was more than she could take. It’s my fault that she’s dead.”
You see that any time there is a death, the survivors will feel guilty. Because the course of action they took turned out bad, they believe that the opposite course—keeping Mother at home, putting off the operation—would have turned out better. After all, how could it have turned out any worse?
There seem to be two elements involved in our willingness to feel guilty. The first is our pressing need to believe that the world makes sense, that there is a cause for every effect and a reason for everything that happens that leads us to find patterns and connections both where they really exist and where they exist only in our minds.
The second element is the view that we are the cause of what happens , especially the bad things that happen. It seems to be a short step from believing that every event has a cause to believe that every disaster is our fault. The roots of this feeling may lie in our childhood.
A baby comes to think that the world exists to meet his needs, and that he makes everything happen in it. He wakes up in the morning and summons the rest of the world to its tasks. He cries, and someone comes to attend to him. When he is hungry, people feed him , and when he is wet, people change him. Very often, we do not completely outgrow that childish view that our wishes cause things to happen.
