YOUR STUDY HABITS怎样改进你的学习习惯Perhaps you are an average student with average intelligence.你也许是个智力一般的普通学生。you do well enough in school,你在学校的学习成绩还不错，but you probably think you will never be a top student.可你也许会觉得自己永远也成不了优等生。this is not necessarily the case,however.然而实际情况未必如此。You can receive better grades if you want to.你要是想取得更好的分数，也还是能做到的。Yes,even students of average intelligence can be top students without additional work.是的，即使中等智力水平的学生，在不增加学习负担的情况下，也能成为优等生。Here's how:其诀窍如下：1.Plan your time carefully.1.仔细安排你的时间。Make a list of your weekly tasks.把你每周要完成的任务一一列出来，Then made a schedule or chart of your time.然后制订一张时间表或时间分配图。Fill in committed time such as eating,sleeping,meetings,classes,etc.先把用于吃饭、睡觉、开会、听课等这样一些非花不可的时间填上，Then decide on good,regular times for studying.然后再选定合适的固定时间用于学习。Be sure to set aside enough time to complete your normal reading and work assignments.一定要留出足够的时间来完成正常的阅读和课外的作业。Of course,studying shouldn't occupy all of the free time on the schedule.当然，学习不应把作息表上的空余时间全都占去。It's important to set aside time for relaxation,hobbies,and entertainment as well.还得给休息、业余爱好和娱乐活动留出一定的时间，这一点很重要。This weekly schedule may not solve all of your problems,这张作息表也许解决不了你所有的问题，but it will make you more aware of how you spend your time.但是它会使你比较清地了解你是怎样使用你的时间的。Furthermore,it will enable you to plan your activities 此外，这张表还能让你安排好各种活动，so that you have adequate time for both work and play.既有足够的时间工作，也有足够的时间娱乐。2.Find a good place to study.2.寻找一个合适的地方学习。Choose one place for your study area.选定某个地方作为你的“学习区”。It may be a desk or a chair at home or in the school library,这可以是家里或者学校图书馆里的一张书桌或者一把椅子，but it should be comfortable,and it should not have distractions.但它应该是合适的，而且不该有干扰。When you begin to work,在你开始学习时，you should be able to concentrate on the subject.你应能够全神贯注于你的功课。3.Skim before you read.3.阅读之前先略读。This means looking over a passage quickly before you begin to read it more carefully.这就是说，在你仔细阅读一篇文章之前，先把它从头至尾迅速浏览一遍。As you preview the material,在预习材料时，you get some idea of the content and how it is organized.你就对它的内容及其结构有了大致的了解。Later when you begin to read you will recognize less important material随后在你正式开始阅读时，你就能辩认出不太重要的材料，and you may skip some of these portions.并且可以略去某些章节不读。Skimming helps double your reading speed and improves your comprehension as well.略读不仅使你的阅读速度提高一倍，还有助于提高你的理解能力。4.Make good use of your time in class.4.充分利用课堂上的时间。Listening to what the teacher says in class means less work later.上课时注意听讲意味着后少花力气。Sit where you can see and hear well.要坐在能看得见、听得清的地方。take notes to help you remember what the teacher says.要作笔记来帮助自己记住老师讲课的内容。5.Study regularly.5.学习要有规律。Go over your notes as soon as you can after class.课后要及早复习笔记。Review important points mentioned in class as well as points you remain confused about .重温课堂上提到的要点，复习你仍然混淆不清的地方。Read about these points in your textbook.阅读教科书上讲到这些内容的有关章节。If you know what the teacher will discuss the next day,如果你知道第二天老师要讲述的内容。skim and read that material

remember it longer.你就能更深刻地领会这些材料的内容，你的记忆也会保持得更长久。Regular review leads to improved performance on tests.定期复习是提高考试成绩的有效途径。6.Develop a good attitude about tests.6.树立正确的考试态度。The purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about a subject.考试的目的在于显示你掌握某一科目的程度。The world won't end if you don't pass a test,一次考试不及格，天是不会塌下来的。so don't worry excessively about a single test.因此，不必为个别的一次考试而过分担心。Tests provide grades,but they also let you know what you need to spend more time studying,不错，考试是要评定分数的，但考试也让你知道自己在哪方面还需要进一步下功夫钻研，and they help make your new knowledge permanent.另外，考试还有助于你进一步巩固所学到的新知识。There
