新世纪综合教程1课文翻译Unit 1优等生的秘诀1 一位研究教育的老师针对成绩优异的学生做过重点研究,发现最聪明的学生不见得总能得高分。
根据这位教授、其他教育专家以及优等生们自己的观点,懂得如何充分发挥自己的潜能对于学生来说更为重要。
2 在班上名列前茅的学生之所以学习优秀,是因为他们掌握了几个人人都可以轻易学到的基本原则。
首先,优等生知道如何决定轻重缓急。
他们从来不会为了打电话、看电视或者吃零食而牺牲学习时间。
换言之,学习总是摆在娱乐之前。
另外,优等生们总是注意随时随地学习。
有位成绩优异的学生同时也是优秀的运动员,每天利用户外训练时间背生物学术语。
而另一位学生则利用每天早上刷牙时间记一个新单词。
所有受访的学生无一例外都认为,在什么时间学习完全是个人偏好问题。
有些人在夜深人静时学习效果最好,有些人则喜欢趁着自己还能清晰地记得上课所讲的内容,一放学回家就开始学习。
尽管如此,所有优等生都一致认为,如果想任何时候都表现优秀,一个主要的因素就是要持之以恒。
3 学生还必须学会有条理。
举个例子,有一位优等生在学校乐队、田径队、橄榄球协会和辩论小组里都很活跃。
他透露,他之所以把东西放得井井有条是因为他浪费不起到处找东西的时间。
还有一位学生喜欢把当天的笔记马上整理出来并放进用不同颜色标记的文件夹里,以便临近考试时能随时用来复习。
优等生们提倡的另一个技巧是有效的阅读,其中包括快速阅读,提高记忆能力以及主动提出问题以便充分理解作者的意思。
4 对于学生们来说,合理安排时间也同样重要。
他们必须懂得如何根据每天的时间表和学习能力来安排做作业和项目的速度,不至于让手头的工作压得喘不过气。
能制定时间表不仅让学生能够腾出更多时间来复习和完善功课,而且还能防止他们拖拖拉拉。
成绩优异的学生认为,他们成功的一大秘诀就是上课时做好笔记,供复习时使用。
有个学生透露,她把从课文上摘抄的内容记在笔记本的一边,把课堂笔记写在另一边。
这样,就可同时复习到两方面的内容。

Unit 1 Growing Up为自己而写——拉塞尔·贝克从孩提时代,我还住在贝尔维尔时,我的脑子里就断断续续地转着当作家的念头,但直等到我高中三年级,这一想法才有了实现的可能。
在这之前,我对所有跟英文课沾边的事都感到腻味。
我觉得英文语法枯燥难懂。
我痛恨那些长而乏味的段落写作,老师读着受累,我写着痛苦。
弗利格尔先生接我们的高三英文课时,我就准备着在这门最最单调乏味的课上再熬上沉闷的一年。
弗利格尔先生在学生中以其说话干巴和激励学生无术而出名。
据说他拘谨刻板,完全落后于时代。
我看他有六七十岁了,古板之极。
他戴着古板的毫无装饰的眼镜,微微卷曲的头发剪得笔齐,梳得纹丝不乱。
他身穿古板的套装,领带端端正正地顶着白衬衣的领扣。
他长着古板的尖下巴,古板的直鼻梁,说起话来一本正经,字斟句酌,彬彬有礼,活脱脱一个滑稽的老古董。
我作好准备,打算在弗利格尔先生的班上一无所获地混上一年,不少日子过去了,还真不出所料。
后半学期我们学写随笔小品文。
弗利格尔先生发下一张家庭作业纸,出了不少题目供我们选择。
像"暑假二三事"那样傻乎乎的题目倒是一个也没有,但绝大多数一样乏味。
我把作文题带回家,一直没写,直到要交作业的前一天晚上。
我躺在沙发上,最终不得不面对这一讨厌的功课,便从笔记本里抽出作文题目单粗粗一看。
我的目光落在"吃意大利细面条的艺术"这个题目上。
这个题目在我脑海里唤起了一连串不同寻常的图像。
贝尔维尔之夜的清晰的回忆如潮水一般涌来,当时,我们大家一起围坐在晚餐桌旁——艾伦舅舅、我母亲、查理舅舅、多丽丝、哈尔舅舅——帕特舅妈晚饭做的是意大利细面条。
那时意大利细面条还是很少听说的异国食品。
多丽丝和我都还从来没吃过,在座的大人也是经验不足,没有一个吃起来得心应手的。
艾伦舅舅家诙谐有趣的场景全都重现在我的脑海中,我回想起来,当晚我们笑作一团,争论着该如何地把面条从盘子上送到嘴里才算合乎礼仪。

新世纪大学英语第二版综合教程1课文翻译及答案Unit1前199名学生的秘密一位研究和教育老师对成绩优秀的学生做了一项重点研究,发现最聪明的学生并不总能取得高分。
根据这位教授、其他教育专家和顶尖学生自己的观点,对学生来说,知道如何充分发挥他们的潜力更为重要。
班上名列前茅的学生很优秀,因为他们掌握了几个基本原理。
首先,优等生知道如何决定他们的优先顺序。
他们从不为了打电话、看电视或吃零食而牺牲学习时间。
换句话说,学习总是先于娱乐。
此外,尖子生总是随时随地注意学习。
成绩优秀的学生也是优秀的运动员。
他每天利用户外训练时间来记忆生物学术语。
而另一个学生利用每天早上刷牙的时间来记住一个新单词所有被采访的学生,无一例外,都认为何时学习完全是个人喜好的问题。
一些人在夜深人静的时候学习得最好,而另一些人喜欢一放学回家就学习,尽管他们仍然清楚地记得他们在课堂上说过的话。
尽管如此,所有优秀的学生都同意,如果你想在任何时候都表现出色,其中一个主要因素就是坚持不懈。
学生也必须学会有条理。
例如,有一名尖子生在学校乐队、田径队、足球协会和辩论团体中非常活跃。
他透露说,他把事情整理好的原因是他不能浪费时间到处找东西。
另一个学生喜欢立即整理当天的笔记,并把它们放在标有不同颜色的文件夹里,以便在考试临近的任何时候用来复习。
优等生提倡的另一项技能是有效阅读,包括快速阅读、提高记忆力和提问以充分理解作者的意思。
对学生来说,合理安排时间同样重要。
他们必须知道如何根据他们的日常时间表和学习能力来安排他们的家庭作业和项目,这样才不会压倒手头的工作。
制定时间表不仅能让学生有更多的时间复习和完善他们的课程,还能防止他们拖延。
成绩优异的学生认为他们成功的秘诀之一是在课堂上做笔记以备复习。
一名学生透露,她在笔记本的一边做笔记,在另一边做课堂笔记。
这样,我们可以同时回顾这两个方面。
她还透露,她不会浪费上课铃响前的几分钟时间,和朋友聊天,随时准备冲出教室。

Straigh t-A student s, in this respect, can be of great help by sharing their secrets in achievi ng academi c excelle nce. Read the followi ng text to find out what some of these secrets are.Secrets of Straigh t-A Student s1 A profess or of educati on who has conduct ed major studies of super-achievi ng student s reveale d that top gradesdo not alwaysgo to the brighte st student s. Accordi ng to him, other educati on experts and top student s themsel ves, it is far more importa nt for a student to know how to make the most of his or her innateabiliti es.2 The student s at the top of the c lass attainacademi c excelle nce by masteri ng a few basic princip les that otherscan easilylearn.To begin with, top student s know how to set their priorit ies right. Study time is never comprom ised for phone calls, televis ion program mes or snacks.In other words, it is alwaysplac edabove recreat ion. In additio n, top student s make a point of studyin g anywher e or everywh ere. A top student who is also a top athlete memoris es biology terms as he works out every day. Another student learnsa new word every morning while brushin g his teeth. Among all the student s intervi ewed, every one agreedthat study times are strictl y a matterof persona l prefere nce. Some thriveat night when all is silent. Otherspreferto study as soon as they come home from schoolwhen the lessons are fresh in their minds. However, all agreedthat consist ency is a main factorif one is to perform well at all times.3 A student must also learn to be organis ed. For example, a top student who is activel y involve d in his schoolband, track and field, rugby associa tion and debateteam disclos ed that he keeps his thingsintheir properplacesbecause he simplycannotaffordtime-wasting searche s. Another student immedia tely files theday’snotesincolour-coded folders so that they are availab le for reviewnearing examina tion time. Another techniq ue advocat ed by top student s is to read effecti vely. This include s speed-reading, improvi ngone’smemoryor retenti on ability, and activel y askingquestio ns that will lead to a full underst anding of the author’smessage.4 It is also importa nt for student s to know how to schedul e their time. They must know how to pace each assignm ent or project accordi ng to their daily timetab le and work ability so that they might not be overwhe lmed by the tasks at hand. Being able to set timetab les not only allowsstudent s more time to reviewand polishtheir work, it also prevent s them from procras tinati ng. Top student s believe that a secretof their success is the takingdown of good notes duringlessons and using them for revisio n. One student reveale d that she writesnotes from the text on one side of her noteboo k and those from her teacher s’lecture s on the other side. This allowsher to reviewboth aspects of each lessonat once. The student also reveale d that instead of wasting time whisper ing to friends and getting ready to rush out of the class just beforethe bell rings, she uses those few minutes to jot down a two or three-sentenc e summary of the lesson’sprincip al points. She then scans the notes to refresh her memorybeforethe nextday’sc lass.5 Another winning formula which teacher s promote lies in a student’sability to hand in neat work. Accordi ng to one profess or, the student who turns in neat work is already on the way to scoring an A. In the classro om context, it is equally importa nt for student s to speak up and ask questio ns. This is perhaps the best way for a student to c larify any doubts.Classro om partici pation also demonst ratesa student’sintelle ctualcuriosi ty. As a student concise ly puts it, ―Bettergradescome from betterunderst anding.‖6 The value of studyin g togethe r was demonst ratedin an experim ent conduct ed at one top univers ity. The study reveale d that student s who discuss ed homewor k and problem s togethe r, tried differe nt approac hes and explain ed their solutio ns to one another scoredhigherthan those who laboure d on their own. The experim ent also illumin ated the value of hypothe ticaltests conduct ed among the student s and on their own. This means that student s frame tentati ve test questio ns based on their notes and give each other or themsel ves written examina tionsthe day beforea test. Experts confirm ed that student s who devisepossibl e test questio ns often find many of the same questio ns duringthe real examina tion and thus score higher.7 Another techniq ue employe d by top student s is to do more than the assigne d homewor k. A student reveale d that if her teacher gives five problem s, she will underta ke ten. In the student’swords, ―Partoflearnin g is practis ing. The more you practis e,themoreyoulearn.‖Lastbutnotleast,al l experts and top student s agree that the most importa nt ―secret‖ of super-achieve rs lies in the crucial contrib utionby parents. From infancy, super-achieve rs were taughtthe importa nce of learnin g by their parents. The latterset high standar ds for their childre n and held them to those standar ds. They encoura ged their childre n in their studies but did not underta ke the work for them. Instead of pressur ing their childre n, these parents were alwaysloving, gentleand took pains to explain and motivat e. They impress ed the lessons of respons ibilit y on their childre n, and the childre n deliver ed.(此课文没有更新,不需要配图说明。

优等生的秘诀1根据这位教授、其他教育专家以及优等生们自己的观点,懂得如何充分发挥自己的潜能对于学生来说更为重要。
2 在班上名列前茅的学生之所以学习优秀,是因为他们掌握了几个基本原则。
首先,优等生知道如何决定轻重缓急。
他们从来不会为了打电话、看电视或者吃零食而牺牲学习时间。
换言之,学习总是摆在娱乐之前。
另外,优等生们总是注意随时随地学习。
有位成绩优异的学生同时也是优秀的运动员,每天利用户外训练时间背生物学术语。
而另一位学生则利用每天早上刷牙时间记一个新单词。
所有受访的学生无一例外都认为,在什么时间学习完全是个人偏好问题。
有些人在夜深人静时学习效果最好,有些人则喜欢趁着自己还能清晰地记得上课所讲的内容,一放学回家就开始学习。
尽管如此,所有优等生都一致认为,如果想任何时候都表现优秀,一个主要的因素就是要持之以恒。
3 学生还必须学会有条理。
举个例子,有一位优等生在学校乐队、田径队、橄榄球协会和辩论小组里都很活跃。
他透露,他之所以把东西放得井井有条是因为他浪费不起到处找东西的时间。
还有一位学生喜欢把当天的笔记马上整理出来并放进用不同颜色标记的文件夹里,以便临近考试时能随时用来复习。
优等生们提倡的另一个技巧是有效的阅读,其中包括快速阅读,提高记忆能力以及主动提出问题以便充分理解作者的意思。
4 对于学生们来说,合理安排时间也同样重要。
他们必须懂得如何根据每天的时间表和学习能力来安排做作业和项目的速度,不至于让手头的工作压得喘不过气。
能制定时间表不仅让学生能够腾出更多时间来复习和完善功课,而且还能防止他们拖拖拉拉。
成绩优异的学生认为,他们成功的一大秘诀就是上课时做好笔记,供复习时使用。
有个学生透露,她把从课文上摘抄的内容记在笔记本的一边,把课堂笔记写在另一边。
这样,就可同时复习到两方面的内容。
她还透露,她不会浪费下课铃响前的几分钟跟朋友交头接耳,准备随时冲出教室。
相反,她会利用这几分钟用两三句话概括那节课的要点,然后在下次上课前浏览这些笔记,加深印象。
5 老师们提倡的致胜秘诀是尽力让自己的作业整洁。
有位老师说,学生交上整洁作业就已向高分迈进了一步。
在课堂上大胆发言和提问也同样重要,这或许是学生澄清疑问的最好办法。
课堂参与还能反映一个学生的求知欲。
有个学生概括得好,“好成绩来自透彻的理解”。
6 在一所世界顶级大学进行的一项实验证明了小组学习的价值所在。
研究表明,学生们如果一起讨论家庭作业和问题,尝试不同的解决办法,并且互相解释各自的答案,分数就会比那些单独用功的学生要高。
实验也证明了学生间互相进行模拟测试或自我测试的好处。
这就是说,学生们根据笔记设计可能的试题,在考试前一天相互之间进行书面测试或自测。
专家们证实,那些能设计模拟试题的学生,往往会在正式考题中发现很多相同的试题,自然能得高分了。
7 优等生使用的另一个技巧是超额完成规定的家庭作业。
一位学生透露,老师若是布置五道题,她会做上十道。
用她的话说,“练习是学习的一部分。
练得越多,学到的也越多。
”最后一点同样不容忽视:所有的专家和优秀学生都认为,全优生们之所以成功,父母的功劳至关重要。
从孩提时起,父母就给他们灌输学习的重要性,为他们制定高标准,并且引导他们达到这些标准。
在学习方面他们给孩子以鼓励,而不是代劳。
这些父母从不给孩子施加压力,永远都温柔慈爱,不厌其烦地解释和激励。
他们使孩子们铭记肩负的责任,而孩子们则将其付诸实践。
上大学的压力威廉•津瑟1环顾四周,“罪魁祸首”轻而易举便可找到:学校收费太高,老师布置太多作业,父母逼迫孩子太紧,学生对自己要求太严。
但在压力问题上,没有恶人,只有受害者。
2 当今的学生生活在一个残酷的经济现实中,学费、住宿费、书本费及这样那样的费用加起来数额不菲。
即使一个学生在校期间做兼职,暑期做全职,四年内还是会欠下5,000美元贷款,毕业后一年内就要开始偿还。
3 少数幸运的学生能得到父母的经济援助,钱并不是一个棘手的问题,但是来自父母的压力让他们的日子也不好过。
4 我看到很多学生一门心思修读医学院预科课程,却毫无快乐可言。
他们去实验室就像去看牙医一样痛苦。
这让我很伤心,因为我知道在生活的其它方面他们是开朗快乐的人。
5 我问他们:“你想学医吗?”6 他们回答说:“其实并不想。
”7 “那为什么还要进医学院呢?”8 “嗯,因为我爸妈希望我当医生。
他们一直在供我读书,而且……。
”9 可怜的学生,可怜的父母啊!他们被困在一张亘古以来由爱、责任和自责交织而成的网中,难以自拔。
父母的本意是好的,他们想引导自己的孩子走向无忧无虑的未来,但孩子们却想攻读历史、古典文学或哲学,这些专业毫无“实用”价值。
人文学科的专业有什么回报?要说服这些关爱子女的父母人文学科的专业确有回报并非易事。
攻读历史、古典文学等专业而开发出来的智能,正是这种智能造就了商界及其他领域内富有创造力的领袖人物。
然而,许多家长还是宁愿出钱供孩子攻读那些面向某一具体职业的课程,比如法律预科、医学预科、商务预科、或者是我有时听到的所谓“财富预科”。
10 可是,学生承受的压力太大,他们简直无所适从了。
一方面,他们觉得有义务不辜负父母对自己的期望,毕竟父母比自己年长,该更有智慧吧。
但另一方面,他们又觉得,父母认为合适的期望未必适合自己。
11 如同经济压力和来自父母的压力,来自同伴的压力和自己给自己的压力也是交织在一起,而且几乎是从大学一年级刚开学就开始存在了。
12 有一位系主任告诉我:“我知道这么一个大一的学生,姑且叫她琳达吧,她来向我诉说她正承受着可怕的压力,因为室友芭芭拉比她更聪明,一天到晚在学习。
我不好告诉她,就在两小时前芭芭拉也来我这里,说了与琳达同样的话。
”13 这件事看来可笑,但实际上并不可笑,这表明所有压力都汇集在一起了。
当每个学生都认为别人更为勤奋、成绩更好时,他唯一能做的就是更加努力地学习。
我看到许多学生每天吃完晚饭就去图书馆,直到深更半夜图书馆关门才回来。
我真希望他们有时能忘掉他们的学伴,去看场电影。
我常常在拂晓时分还听到打字机在噼噼啪啪地响,考试来临或论文限期快到时,我能从学生的眼神中看到他们的紧张情绪:“我能把所有的事情做完吗?”14 他们很可能完成不了。
因为他们会生病,脑袋会“僵硬”,无法正常思维;他们要睡觉,而且会睡过头。
15 出现这一问题的部分原因是:他们会远远超额完成任务。
老师布置一篇5页的论文,一些学生就会写上10页,而少数人甚至会增加到15页。
可怜那些仅仅按照要求完成作业的学生。
16 一位系主任指出:“一旦20%或30%的学生刻意地过分努力,对每个学生来说都不是好事。
当一位教师看到班上学生越发地努力,那些只是正常完成作业的学生就会被看作是表现不够好。
就心理上而言,这个策略还是有效的。
”17 要打破这些学生陷入的“怪圈”,周围的人们、老师、父母、朋友都能给予帮助,但归根结底还是要靠学生自己。
