中级英语听力教程：Lesson 16 How to Improve Your Study Habits
How to Improve Your Study HabitsText AMaybe you are an average student with an average intellect.You pass most of your subjects. You occasionally get good grades, but they are usually just average. You are more interested in hiking than in history, and in sports than inscholarship. The fact is that you don't study very much.You probably think you will never be a top student. This is not necessarily so, however. Anyone can become a better scholar if he or she wants to. It is true that you may not be enthusiastic about everything that you study, but by using your time properly you may improve your grades without additional work. Here's how :1. Plan your time carefully. When you plan a trip, one of the first things you must do is to make a list of things, to take. If you don't you are almost certain to leave something important at home. When you plan your week, you should make a list of things that you have to do. Otherwise, you may forget to leave enough time to complete an important task. After making the list, you should make a schedule of your time.First fill in committed time-eating, sleeping,dressing, school, meeting, ete. Then decide on a good, regular time for studying. Be sure to set aside enough time to complete the work that, you are normally assigned each week. Of course , studying shouldn't occupy all of your free time. Don't forget to set aside enough time for entertainment, hobbies , and maybejust relaxation. A weekly schedule may not solve all your problems, but it will force you to realize what is happening to your time.2. Find a good place to study. Look around the house for a good study area. Keep this space , which may be a desk or simply a corner of your room, free of everything but study materials. No games, radios, or television! If you can't find such a place at home, find a library where you can study. When you sit down to work, concentrate on the subject! And don't go to the place you have chosen unless you are ready to study.3. Scan before you read. This means looking a passage over quickly but thoroughly before you begin to read it more carefully.Scanning a passage lets you preview the material and get a general idea of the content. This will actually allow you to skip less important material when you begin to read. Scanning will help you double your reading speed and improve your comprehension.4. Make good use of your time in class. Take advantage of class time to listen to everything the teacher says. Sit where you can see and hear well. Really listening in class means less work later. Taking notes will help you remember what the teacher says. When the teacher gets off the subject, stop taking notes.5. Study regularly. When you get home from class, go over your notes. Review the important points that your teacher mentioned in class. Read any related material in your textbook. If you know what your teacher is going to discuss the next day, scan and read that material, too. This will help you understand the next class. If you do these things regularly, the material will become more meaningful, and you will remember it longer.6. Develop a good attitude about tests. The purpose of atest is to show what you have learned about a subject. The world won't end if you don't pass a test, so don't get overly worried. Tests do more than just provide grades; they let you know what you need to study more , and they help make your new knowledge permanent.There are other techniques that might help you with your studying. Only a handful have been mentioned here. You will probably discover many others after you have tried these.Text BSome kind of planning is essential. For one thing it reveals whether you really have enough to say on the topic you have chosen while there is still time to change to another topic. It is also important because it stimulates your ideas and helps to fix them in your mind Without some notes to help you, you may find that you begin writing with several ideas in your head but you forget some of them as you are writing.When you have chosen your topic, and perhaps have a general idea of your theme, make quick short notes of all the ideas that come into your head.Remember that these should be notes-words or phrases-not sentences , which would slowyou down. As you do this you will find that new ideas will come to you, for one idea leads to another. This should not take more than ten minutes, for in an examination you have no time to waste.If you have not yet decided on your main theme , you can do so now, and then on the main idea of each paragraph. You may have to rearrange your ideas, to decide which paragraphs they will fit into, and which ideas will be left out altogether.It is for you to decide how detailed your plan should be. If you are good at writing, and have had plenty of practice, probably only a few brief notes will be necessary, but if you are not, then you may require a more detailed plan. But remember that everi the best writers need to make some notes if they are going to produce a well-organized piece of writing. You will of course be given marks for the arrangement of your ideas.With your plan in front of you, you should be able to write your composition. There should be no need to write a rough verseon first, then correct it and make a final copy. This is a waste of time.Additional InformstionThere is a lot of misunderstanding about studying. Most students have not been taught the principles behind really effective working. Above is a graph showing the amount a person learns against the number of honrs he works in a day. If he doesn't do any work, he learns nothing (point 0). If he does an hour's work he learns a cerain amount (point 1 ).If he does two hours' work he learns about twice as much (point 2). If he does more work he'll learn still more (point 3). Now, it he tried to do 23 1/2 hours' work in 24, he'll beso exhausted that he'll hardly remember anything: what he learns will be very little (point 4). If he did less work he'd learn more (point 5).Now whatever the exact shape of this curve, it must have a crest. Point X is the very maximum anyone can learn in the day. And this represents the optimum, the best, amount of work to do. It is the best possible compromise between adequate time at the books and fatigue. Fatigue is an absolutely real thing; one can't escape it or try to ignore it. If you try to, if you press yourself to'work past the optimum (andany fool can prop his eyelids up and do 14 hours a day ) , you can only get on this downward slope and achieve less than the best-and then get exhausted and lose your power of concentration.The skill in being a student consists in getting one's daily study as near the optimum point as possible. I cannot tell you what the optimum is. It differs with the type of work, it differs from person to person, andeven in the same person it varies from week to week. You must try to find your own. Every day you study, bear this principle of the optimum in mind. When you feel yourself getting fatigued, if you find yourself repeatedly reading over the same paragraph and not taking it iri, that's a pretty good sign you've reached the crest for the day and should stop.Most ordinary students find their optimum at about five hours a day. Yours may be a little more or a little less-but if you get in five hours' good work a day, you will be doing well.Now. what are you doing with yourself when you aren't working? Before examinations some students do nothing at allexcept sit in a chair and worry. Here is another misunderstanding. Peop~e too easily think of the mind as if it worked like the body, it does not. If one wantedto conserve physical energy to cut the maximum amount of firewood, one would lie flat on a bed and rest when one wasn't chopping. But the mind cannot rest. Even in sleep you dream, even if you forget your dreams. The mind is always turning. It gets its relaxation only by variety. That is what makes mental rest.When you've finished your optimum hourage you must stop. You must not then sit around in the chair thinking about the work-that only tires without any learning. You must get out and do something. It doesn't matter what-anything so long as you are actively doing something else but work.1propvt.支撑；n.支柱，支撑物；支持者，靠山参考例句：A worker put a prop against the wall of the tunnel to keep it from falling.一名工人用东西支撑住隧道壁好使它不会倒塌。

Did you grow up there?W:Yes, I did, but my family moved here 8years ago when I was in high school.M:And where did you learn the rollerblade?W:Here in the park, this is only my second time.M:Well, it’s my first time, can you give me some lessons?W:Sure, just follow me.M:By the way, my name is Ted.W:And I’m Anna, nice to meet you.Intermediate 1-2M:Hey, hey! That was fun. Thanks for the lesson!W:No problem. So, tell me a little about yourself. What do you do?M:I work in a travel agency.W:Really! What do you do here?M:I’m in charge of their computers.W:Oh, so you’re computer specialist.M:Well, sort of. Yeah, I guess so.W:That’s great. Then maybe you can give me some help with a computer course I’m taking.M:Oh, sure~ But only if you promise to give me some more rollerblading lessons.W:It’s a deal!Intermediate 2W1:Where are you from originally, Yu Hong?W2:I’m from China~ from near Shanghai.W1:And when did you move here?W2:I came here after I graduated from college. That was in 1992.W1:And what do you do now?W2:I’m a transportation engineer.W1:I see. So you’re an immigrant to the United States.W2:Yes, that’s right.W1:What are some of the difficulties of being an immigrant in the U.S.?W2:Oh, that’s not an easy question to answer. There are so many things, really. I guess one of the biggest difficulty is that I don’t have any relatives here. I mean, I have a lot of friends, but that’s not the same thing. In China, on holidays or the weekend, we visit relatives. It isn’t the same here.W1:And what did you miss the most from home?W2:Oh, that’s easy: my mom’s soup! She makes great soup! I really miss my mother’s cooking. Intermediate 3-1M:Hey! Are these pictures of you when you were a kid?W:Yeah! That’s me in front of my uncle’s beach house. When I was a kid, we used to spend two weeks there every summer.M:Wow, I bet that was fun!W:Yeah. We always had a great time. Every day we used to get up early and walk along the beach.I had a great shell collection. In fact, I think it’s still up in the attic!M:Hey, I used to collect shells, too, when I was a kid. But my parents threw them out! Intermediate 3-2M:You know what I remember most about growing up?W:What?M:Visiting my grandparent’s house. You know, on holidays and stuff. They lived way out of the country, and my granddad had a horse named Blackie. He taught me how to ride. I just love that horse-and she loved me, too! I used to really enjoy spending time at my grandparents’ house. And every time I came back, Blackie remembered me.W:Ah, memories!Intermediate 4-1W:Why is there never a bus when you want one?M:Good question. There aren’t enough buses on this route.W:Sometimes I feel like writing a letter to the paper.M:Good idea. You should say that we need more subway lines, too.W:Yeah, there should be more public transportation in general.M:And fewer cars! There’re too much traffic.W:Say, is that our bus coming?M:Yes, it is. But, look, it’s full.W:Oh,no! Let’s go and get a cup of coffee. We can talk about this letter I’m going to write. Intermediate 4-2M:So, are you really going to write a letter to the paper?W:Sure, I’m going to say something about the buses. They’re too old. We need more modern buses~ nice air conditioned ones.M:And they need to put more buses on the road.W:Right, and there are too many cars downtown, and there isn’t enough parking.M:That’s for sure. It’s impossible to find a parking space downtown these days.W:I think they should ban private cars downtown between nine and five.M:Oh, you mean they should allow any cars except taxis and buses during regular workday?M:Hmm~ That sounds like a really good idea.Intermediate 5-1W:Excuse me, could you tell me where the bank is?M:There’s one upstairs, across from the duty-free shop.W:Oh, thanks. Do you know what time it opens?M:It shouldn’t be open now. It opens at 8 a.m.W:Good. And can you tell me how often the buses leave for the city?M:You need to check at the transportation counter. It’s right down the hall.W:OK. And one more thing. Do you know where the nearest restroom is?M:Right behind you, ma’am. See that sign?W:Oh, thanks a lot.Intermediate 5-2W:Excuse me. It’s me again. I’m sorry. I need some more information-if you don’t mind.M:Not at all.W:Thanks. Do you know how much a taxi costs to the city?M:Well, it depends on the traffic, of course. But it usually costs about $40.W:$40? I guess I’ll take the bus. That means I have almost an hour till the next one. Where could I find an inexpensive restaurant in the airport? Maybe a fast-food place?M:Go upstairs and turn right. You’ll see the snack bar on your left.W:Thanks very much. Have a nice day!M:You, too.Intermediate 6M:Quite a number of things have been done to help solve traffic problems in Singapore. For example, motorists must buy a special pass if they want to drive into the downtown business district. They can go into the business district only if they have the pass displayed on their windshield. Another thing Singapore has done is to make it difficult to buy cars. People have to apply for a certificate if they want to buy a car. And the number of certificates is limited. Not everyone can get one. There is also a high tax on cars. So it costs three or four times as much to buy a car in Singapore as it does in, say, the United States or Canada. The other thing Singapore has done is to build an excellent public transportation system. Their subway system is one of the best in the world. And there is also a very good and taxi and bus system.Intermediate 7M:What do you think?W1:Well, it has just as many bedrooms as the last apartment. And the living room is huge.W2:But the bedrooms are too small. And there isn’t enough closet space for my clothes.M:And it’s not as cheap as the last apartment we saw.W1:But that apartment was dark and dingy. And it was in a dangerous neighborhood.M:Let’s see if the real estate agent has something else to show us. Well, how do you like this place, then?W2:Oh, it’s much better than that other one. The thing I like best is the bedrooms. They are huge!W1:Yes, they are nice and big.W2:And they are two bathrooms! I could have my own bathroom!W1:Yes, I guess you could.W2:The only problem is the color of the living room. I really don’t like those dark green walls. M:Oh, I’m we can change the color if we want to.Intermediate 8-1M:Creative Rentals. Good morning.W:Hello. I’m calling the apartment you have for rent.M:Yes, what can I tell you about it?W:Where is it exactly?M:It’s on King Street, just off the freeway.W:Oh, near the freeway. Can you hear the traffic?M:Yes, I’m afraid you do hear some. But the apartment has lots of space. It has three bedrooms and a very large living room.W:I see. And is it in a new building?M:Well, the building is about 50 years old.W:Uh-huh. Well, I’ll think about it.M:OK, thanks for calling.W:Thank you. Bye.Intermediate 8-2W:Hello?M:Hello. Is the apartment you’re advertising still available?W:Yes, it is.M:Can you tell me a little about it?W:Well, it’s a perfect apartment for one person. It’s one room with a kitchen at one end.M:I see. And is it far away from the subway?W:There’s subway station just down the street.
