Habits Of Highly Successful Students
Never Over-Study
When you spend too much time studying you will quickly lose focus and the time spent in studying will become ‘junk time’. You think you're studying but you're just sitting there re-reading the same sentence about 100 times and you're not getting anywhere. Instead, take regular breaks.1.Besides, it will give your mind some time to take in what you have been doing.
2.
Top students don't just randomly sit down and complete work. They actually plan what they are going to do: They actually plan the time they will study and they set goals for what will be achieved. If you want to be successful, do as successful people do. Set a plan and, set a goal and stick to it, which will create a routine and a routine is the first step towards developing a habit.3.
Front Up To The Toughest Work First
Many of us like to do the easy things first to build our confidence. That’s fair enough. The only challenge with this approach is that you use up your primary energy at the start of any study period and so if you are dealing with the easy parts with your primary energy your batteries will be low when it comes the time to deal with the hard part. So what happens then?4.We all do it. We really shouldn't, though. So develop the habit of giving your primary energy to the hard tasks and completing the easy stuff last.
5.
Do we really have to explain this? Just turn them off for an hour, we promise the world will still be there when you log back in!

Mike Flint was Buffett’s airplane pilot(飞行员). Flint had also flown four US Presidents, so we can safely say he was good at his job. According to Flint, he was talking about his career(事业) priorities (优先事项) with Buffett when he asked him to go through a 3-step exercise.
STEP 1: Write down his top 25 career goals(目标). So, Flint took some time and wrote them down.
STEP 2: Review his list and circle his top 5 goals. Again, Flint took some time, made his way through the list, and at last decided on his 5 most important goals.
STEP 3: At this point, Flint had two lists. The 5 items he had circled were on List A and the 20 items he had not circled were on List B.
Flint said that he would start working on his top 5 goals right away. And then Buffett asked him about the second list, “And what about the ones you didn’t circle?”
Flint replied, “Well, the top 5 are my primary focus (焦点), but the other 20 come in a close second. I still plan to give them my efforts.”
Buffett said, “No. You’ve got it wrong. Everything you didn’t circle just became your Avoid-At-All-Cost list. These things get no efforts from you until you’ve succeeded with your top 5.”
This is why Buffett’s strategy (策略) is great. Items 6 through 25 are things you care about. So you can’t help paying attention to them. And then you get 20 distractions (分心的事物) to stop you from focusing on(集中) your top 5 goals. Spending time on secondary priorities is the reason you have 20 half-finished goals instead of 5 completed ones. So force yourself to focus. The most dangerous distractions are the ones you love, but that don’t love you back.
1.What did Flint think of his items on List B?
A.They were important too. B.They were much more difficult.
C.They were not worth his effort. D.They were impossible goals to reach.
2.What did Buffett suggest to Mike Flint?
A.Giving up List B halfway.
B.Choosing only one priority from the 25 items.
C.Paying no attention to List B before finishing List A.
D.Reviewing all the items and deciding on another top 5.
3.According to Buffett’s strategy, ________.
A.getting 20 half-finished goals is useful too
B.we should break away from distractions decidedly
C.it’s impossible for us to finish two tasks at a time
D.secondary priorities will prevent us from succeeding
4.What can be the best title for the passage?
A.List A or List B?
B.How to choose your priorities
C.The secret of Buffett’s great success
D.Avoid distractions to focus on your priorities
We don’t know when and where the next earthquake will hit. But we do know the importance of safety and preparation. The only way to be ready for the unexpected is to prepare ahead of time. It’s especially important if you live in earthquake zones. So here are some important steps to build your own Earthquake Action Plan.
1. Talk to your friends and families and decide on a place to meet if you’re separated after an earthquake.
2. Make an emergency(紧急情况)communication plan in case cell towers or phone lines are down. You can also ask relatives or friends outside your area to be your contacts.
3. Locate a safe place in every room of your house and discuss with your families the safest places to be during an earthquake. Remember, if you’re:
a. Inside, get under something heavy like a study table or against an inside wall and cover your head.
b. Outside, stay away from buildings and get out into the open.
c. In your car, stop and stay in your seat. If you’re stopped near a building or under an overpass(天桥),try to safely move away from it.
4. Store first-aid kits(急救箱)anywhere you spend a lot of time(house, car, workplace, etc. ).
5. Pack plenty of batteries, flashlights, and bottles of water to prepare for power outages and water shortages.
6. Review your home’s important systems(electrical, gas, water, etc. )and know how to operate them or shut them off in an emergency.
Although they’re somewhat unusual, earthquakes are incredibly terrible, overwhelming, and unpredictable forces of nature. But with some knowledge and preparation, we can mitigate risks and do the best we can to keep ourselves and our families safe.
