A study plan is an effective way to help you get through your college education in an organized way. Each student will develop a different study plan. 1. When creating your personalized (个性化的) study plan, you will need to do some self-evaluation of your current schedule and time management. Follow the step-by-step instructions below will help you.
Create a time chart of your current activities.
Creating a time chart will allow you to see how you spend your time from day to day. For a one-week period, take notes about your daily activities. Record things like when you are at work, school, or home with family. 2.
Develop a schedule.
Now that you have determined available days and times for studying, make a mark in your calendar. Use detailed notes to block out (概略画出) times on your calendar so that you are reminded every time you look at it. 3. Seeing it written down can make it seem more important, like a doctor's appointment you can't miss.
Determine your study goals.
At the beginning of each week, determine why you need to study and what you plan to accomplish in each class. Do you want to raise your average in a particular class in order to maintain a certain GPA (平均分)? 4. For example, if you are studying for an important mid-term exam, change your study plan two weeks before the test to include reviews of old tests and notes in your sessions (课程).
5.
A study plan works best if it is followed on a consistent (一致的) basis. You should try to develop a study plan that you can follow for the length of each term of college. Since most students enroll in different classes each term, you will have to reevaluate your plan and fine- tune it each term.
A.Stick to your schedule.
B.Even note when you eat and sleep.
C.Are you preparing for a big exam?
D.There is no correct study plan for everyone.
E.It is best to have a schedule written down so you won't forget.
F.So be sure to analyze what you plan to get out of each study session.
G.However, it is helpful to write down which subject you plan to study.
CHANGSHA-Drones (无人机) for agriculture have proved popular with farmers in China. "Drones are over 10 times more efficient (有效率的) than skilled manpower (人力) and they are cost-effective and environmentally friendly," said Li Liping, a major grain grower in the county-level city of Xiangxiang in Central China's Hunan province.
The 51-year-old farmer, who learned to fly the machine three years ago, said he no longer needed to walk through the mud and water in the fields to spray and fertilize since drones have replaced manual work. "It was so exciting to see the drone taking off," said Li as he recalled the first time he used the machine in the summer of 2018.
As the COVID-19 epidemic (流行病) wanes across China, farmers are encouraged by local governments to expand their planting areas and increase their production input (投入). The city of Xiangxiang, for example, is ready to see a rich summer harvest of early rice. Li has grown some 20 more hectares of early rice this year and expects to see a major rise in grain output with drones being a great help.
Xiao Jianliang, an owner of another major farmland in Xiangxiang, has also benefited greatly from the use of drones in agriculture. Xiao said he acquired his drone license in late 2017 after a 15-day intensive training program, and the skill of flying drones has brought him additional income as the machine improves the efficiency of sowing and crop-dusting (喷杀农药). Farmers like Li and Xiao are among a growing number of Chinese farmers who are introducing smarter and innovative ideas to increase their agricultural production.
They are skilled drone pilots, capable of designing the most efficient flight routes and heights, analyzing the flight path to fill the gap and calculating the precise amount of fertilizer and pesticide for the land.
“A revolution in agricultural production is taking place because of mechanization and intelligent intensive farming, especially in pioneering areas like Xiangxiang," said Li Xiangping, an agricultural expert in Hunan with over two decades of experience in farm management.
As the demand for the machine is predicted to rise in the coming years, farmers including Li and Xiao also expect more intelligent and economical drones equipped with longer battery life.
1.Why did Xiao Jianliang receive the training program?
A.To know the functions of flying drones.
B.To increase the agricultural production.
C.To get the skill of flying drones and a drone license.
D.To reduce the efficiency of sowing and crop-dusting.
2.What does the underlined word "wane” in Para.3 mean?
A.Turn greater in size, number or importance.
B.Having finished and not going to continue.
C.Come near to somebody/something in distance or time.
D.Become gradually weaker, often so that it finally disappears.
3.What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A.The demand for the drone is uncertain.
B.The drone has some room for improvement.
C.It costs much to use the drone in agriculture.
D.Li and Xiao are rather satisfied with the drone.
4.What can be the best title for the news report?
A.Drones have replaced manual work
B.Drones give helping hand to farmers
C.Drones are more efficient than skilled manpower
D.Drones are cost-effective and environmentally friendly
Space is the final frontier (前沿). Sending rockets into space has become almost common. The demand for communications satellites and space-based image services is growing.
Today, space efforts cost about $200 billion a year. Joint efforts between governments and businesses are helping to lower costs and increase our understanding of the universe.
The business of space looks good for Orbital ATK, a company based in the United States. In January, the company launched its Antares rocket. The rocket was carrying the first of eight planned supply shipments to the International Space Station. Orbital ATK is one of the two American companies paid by NASA to transport supplies to the space station.
A company called Arianespace is a private European space business. Clayton Nowry heads the American division of the company. He says the increase in rocket launches is partly the result of increased demand for space-based technologies. These include high-definition (高清的) broadcasts and satellite broadband services.
While there is more demand for satellites, the end of NASA's Space Shuttle program in 2011 has hurt the space industry. Janice Starzyk works at International Launch Services. She works on education issues at the Washington Space Business Roundtable. She said, "It's a pity that the program's shutdown was a huge, huge set of lay-offs (下岗人员) in the industry."
But even as NASA reduces its spending, other countries have announced plans to explore space. In December 2013, China became just the third country to land an unmanned space vehicle on the moon. A month later, India sent its first communications satellite.
1.What makes sending rockets into space become very usual?
A.More and more people wanting to explore space.
B.Space becoming human's final home and dream.
C.Companies making every effort to earn $ 200 billion a year.
D.Increasing need for communications satellites and space-based image services.
2.Why are governments and businesses working together?
A.To earn more money from space projects.
B.To send more rockets into space and use them.
C.To produce more communications satellites for the public.
D.To keep costs down and help us learn more about the universe.
3.What do we know about Orbital ATK?
A.It's a private European space business.
B.It sent its Antares rocket in January.
C.It's a company based in the United Kingdom.
D.It's the only American company paid by NASA.
4.How may Janice Starzyk feel about the program's shutdown?
A.Hopeful. B.Content.
C.Regretful. D.Uninterested.
