Maybe you are an average student. 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. Here’s how.
1) Plan your time carefully. 1.. 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. Don't forget to set aside enough time for entertainment. A weekly schedule may not solve all your problems, but it will force you to realize everything that is happening to your time.
2) Find a good place to study. 2.. 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. 3.. Really listening in class means that you don’t have to work too much later. Taking notes will help you remember what the teacher says.
4) Study regularly. 4.. Review the important points that your teacher mentioned in class. If you know what your teacher is going to discuss the next day, reading that material will become more meaningful, and you will remember it longer.
5) 5.. The purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about a subject. They help you remember what you have just learned in class. The world won’t end if you don't pass a test, so don't 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.
A.Take advantage of class time to listen to everything the teachers say.
B.Look around the house for a good study area.
C.When you get home from school, go over your notes.
D.Work hard at your subjects
E.When you plan your week, you should make a list of things that you have to do.
F.learn from other students when you meet some problems.
G.Develop a good attitude about tests.
When she first started learning about climate change from one of her elders, Fawn Sharp was invited on a helicopter flight over the Olympic Mountains to survey the Mount Anderson glacier.
But the glacier was gone, melted away by the warming climate.
Sharp, president of the Quinault Indian Nation, Washington, US, remembers a deep sense of loss when she discovered the glacier wasn’t there anymore.
Loss is a growing issue for people working and living on the front lines of climate change. And that gave Jennifer Wren Atkinson, a full-time lecturer at the University of Washington Bothell, US, an idea for a class.
This quarter, she taught students on the Bothell campus about the emotional burdens of environmental study. She drew on the experiences of Native American tribes (部落), scientists and activists, and asked her 24 students to face the reality that there is no easy fix – that “this is such an intractable problem that they’re going to be dealing with it for the rest of their lives.”
Student Cody Dillon used to be a climate science skeptic (怀疑论者). Then he did his own reading and research, and changed his mind.
Dillon isn’t going into environmental work – he’s a computer-science major. Yet, the potential for a worldwide environmental catastrophe seemed so real to him five years ago that he quit his job and became a full-time volunteer for an environmental group that worked on restoration projects.
But six months into the work, he decided that wasn’t the right response, either. “I didn’t really feel like I had an impact,” he said.
Atkinson’s class was just what he was looking for – a place where he could discuss his concerns about a changing climate, and also learn more about what’s being done in response. “You really see the amount of passion and drive a lot of these activists are putting in,” he said.
Atkinson said she hopes the class helped her students prepare themselves for the amount of environmental loss that will happen over their lifetimes.
“We are already transforming the planet – so many species and communities are going to be lost, displaced or massively (巨大地) impacted,” she said. “The future isn’t going to be what they imagined.”
Lauren Morrison, another student, said she felt empowered by learning about climate change actions around the globe.
“It’s easy to feel defeated, but all over the world, people are stepping up,” she said.
1.Why did the author mention the case of Fawn Sharp?
A.To lay a basis for Fawn Sharp’s further research.
B.To lead into the issue of loss caused by climate change.
C.To show scientists’ concern about the Mount Anderson glacier.
D.To show Fawn Sharp’s work is similar to Atkinson’s.
2.What’s the main purpose of Atkinson’s class?
A.To help students face emotional impact of a warming planet.
B.To explore how different people deal with climate change.
C.To find solutions to the Olympic Mountains’ environmental issue.
D.To make students aware of the current state of the global climate.
3.The underlined word “intractable” in Paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to ________.
A.simple B.interesting
C.complicated D.common
4.How did Atkinson’s class influence Dillon?
A.It changed his mind and aroused his interest in climate science.
B.It made him realize a planet-wide climate disaster would happen.
C.It encouraged him to be more involved in environmental protection.
D.It inspired him to work on restoration projects for the environment.
Teenagers in the US know they’ll probably need tech skills to land good jobs, but a new survey suggests that interest in tech careers may be decreasing (减少).
The percentage of boys aged 13 to 17 who are interested in science, technology, engineering (工程) and math – or STEM – careers dropped from 36 percent in 2017 to 24 percent this year, according to a survey by Junior Achievement USA. The amount of girls interested in STEM careers stayed unchanged at 11 percent.
But the 1,000 survey participants still named technology as one of two key skills that will be necessary to prepare them for their future careers.
“Kids don’t understand how technology can be applied to careers outside of computers, coding (编码) and maybe robotics (机器人学),” said Tammera L. Holmes, president of aviation consulting firm AeroStar Consulting. “That’s all they know, so they can’t really translate that interest to career pathways (职业道路).”
When Holmes was in high school, her mom sent her to an event that featured (以……为专题) the Tuskegee Airmen, famous military (军事的) pilots from World War II. One of the pilots took her for a ride and let her take the wheel. “I was 16 years old, flying over Lake Michigan, facing down the skyline, and I knew immediately that was the career for me,” she said.
Women remain outnumbered by men in fields like technology. For people working to increase the number of women in these areas, the lack of growth in girls’ interest in STEM careers is concerning.
Teenage girls are more interested than their male classmates in pursuing (追求) careers in which they can help others, said Ed Grocholski from Junior Achievement. Even with all the programs aimed at increasing girls’ interest in STEM, “I don’t think we really talk that much about how we improve people’s lives through STEM,” Grocholski said.
Society needs to do better at making those connections for kids, said Katherine Latham, founder of an engineering firm. She used civil engineering (土木工程) as an example of a career that will continue to be crucial.
However, the fact that students know they will need tech skills in their future careers is encouraging. The second skill they said they need? Relationship-building.
“That’s going to be the new breed (类型) of engineers,” Latham said.
1.What is the reason behind kids’ falling interest in tech careers?
A.They find tech careers too boring.
B.They find tech skills are less important than before.
C.They can’t connect their tech interest to future careers.
D.They don’t think tech careers are rewarding enough.
2.What started Holmes’ interest in her current career?
A.A documentary about the life of pilots.
B.A summer camp for trainee pilots.
C.Her parents’ wish for her to become a pilot.
D.Her flight experience with a pilot.
3.According to Grocholski, teenage girls are more interested in careers that ______.
A.can improve people’s lives.
B.will make them look beautiful.
C.are different from those of their parents.
D.can socialize more with other people.
4.What is the article mainly about?
A.The popularity of tech careers among kids and its reasons.
B.Reasons behind the change of kids’ interest in tech careers.
C.The different careers boys and girls in the US will pursue.
D.Some examples of kids pursuing tech careers successfully.
