参考.

1.In fact all the pieces of advice mentioned in the interview

are very useful. But if I have to choose one as the most useful, I'd choose "keep a balance". When we were in high school, we spent almost all our time studying. There lacked a balance between social life and academic life in high school. It's important to keep a balance between life and work because it will give us a sound mind in a sound body. Now we have much more free time, so we can join student organizations or go to different activities,

2.Before I left for college my parents did have a talk with

me. They told me how important college experience would be in my life. They told me about the opportunities that college education would open up to me. They told

me to try to develop more interests and join some student clubs. The most impressive advice they gave me was that I should not only read books about my major;

instead, they advised me to read as widely as possible. All these are very valuable pieces of advice.
