2. Can the older generation be true friends with the younger generation? Why?
Tips
Version 2: Yes, there can be true friends as long as the older generation and the younger generation try their best to understand each other.

To be a straight-A student, what should a student do?2. Background informationQuotes and Proverbs on Education by ConfuciusConfucius was a teacher, scholar and minor political official whose commentary on Chinese literary classics developed into a pragmatic philosophy for daily life. Not strictly religious, the teachings of Confucius were a useful approach to social harmony and defined moral obligations between individuals and social systems. After his death his pupils collected notes on his sayings and doings and recorded them as the Analects. This collection was added to over the years, and many sayings attributed to him areprobably only loosely based on his teachings. His approach was formalized into a political and religious system during the Han Dynasty in the early part of the third century.(1) I hear and I forget. I see and I remember. I do and understand.(2) Exploring the old and deducing the new makes a teacher.(3) To learn without thinking is labour in vain; to think without learning is desolation.(4) Knowledge is not equal to devotion. Devotion is not equal to joy.(5) R eal knowledge is to know the extent of one’s ignorance.(6) When you know a thing, to hold that you know it; and when you do not know athing, to allow that you do not know it —this is knowledge.3. Study of the textPara. OneMain Idea: Students should know how to make full use of their innate abilities. Questions & Answers(1) What did the professor of education find?He found that top grades do not always go to the brightest students.(2) What is important for a student to bear in mind?He or she should bear in mind how to make the most of his or her innate abilities. Para. TwoMain Idea：Top students attain academic excellence by mastering a few basic principles that others can easily learn.Questions & Answers(1) What are the basic principles for attaining academic excellence?They are: a. set priorities; b. study anywhere or everywhere;c. study at one’s preferred time;d. be consistent.(2) How does the writer illustrate what is meant by “setpriorities right”?As a student, study time should always be guaranteed, and it should never be compromised for phone calls, television programmes or snacks.Typical Organization of This Paragraph(1) The topic sentence:The students at the top of the class attain academic excellence by mastering a few basic principles that others can easily learn.(2) How to illustrate:1) To begin with, …2) In addition, …3) Among all the students interviewed, ...4) However, ...Para. ThreeMain Idea: Top students learn to be organized.Questions & Answers(1) What did the first student say about getting organized?He won’t waste his precious time searching for things that have been misplaced. (2) What did the second student say about getting organized?He will have the class notes ready for review when the examination time comes. Para. FourMain Idea: Top students know how to schedule their time properly.Questions & Answers(1) Why is it important for students to know how to schedule their time?If students schedule their time well, they will reasonably pace each assignment or project to avoid being overwhelmed by thetask at hand .Besides, by doing so, they will have more time to review and polish their work, and they are less likely to procrastinate.(2) What are some of the learning strategies top students share about getting organized?Two specific ones are given:a. taking down good notes during lessons and using them for revision; andb. jotting down a two or three-sentence summary o f the lesson’s principal pointsbefore class is over and scanning the notes before the next day’s class.Para. FiveMain Idea: Top students are very serious about school and very active in class. Questions & Answers(1)What other factors are introduced in this paragraph that may contribute to academicexcellence?They are: handing in neat work, speaking up and asking questions in class, and actively participating in classroom activities.(2) What does the student mean by “Better grades come from better understanding.”?By speaking up and asking questions to clarify any doubts, a student may come to a better understanding, which will lead to better grades.Para. SixMain Idea: Students benefit from group study.Questions & Answers(1) What has been found about group study?An experiment has shown that students benefited from studying together. Those who studied in a group scored higher than those who studied on their own.(2) What does the word “labour” reveal about studying on one’s own?When someone labours to do something, that person does it with difficult y. By using “labour” to describe studying on one’s own, the writer emp hasizes the value of group study.Para. SevenMain Idea: Top students do more than the assigned homework and get more contributions from their parents.Questions& Answers(1) Why does the student choose to do more than she is asked to?Because she believes that the more she does, the more she learns.(2) What is the most important secret of super-achievers according to experts and topstudents?It is the crucial contribution by the parents of those students. Those parents usually emphasize the importance of learning, set high standards for their children and hold them to those standards. Besides, they are also encouraging, loving, gentle and motivating parents who teach their children lessons of responsibility.4. Understanding of some difficult sentences(1) Secrets of Straight-A Students1) Who are called “straight-A students”?A straight-A student is someone who regularly gets the best marks for all oftheir work in school or college.2) Translate the title into Chinese.全优生的秘诀(2) …, it is far more important for a student to know how to make the most of his orher innate abilities.1) What is the part of speech of the word “far”? What does it mean?It’s an adverb. It means very much. It can be used to modify some adjectives, such as far less/better/easier, and to modify some prepositions, such as far above/below/beyond.More examples:It would take me far too long to explain.The new system is far better than the old one.He bought it for a price that was far beyond (= much more than) its real value.2) Paraphrase “make the most of his or her innate abilities”.To get as much advantage as one can from one’s innate abilities.(3) Study time is never compromised for phone calls, television programmes or snacks.In other words, it is always placed above recreation.What kind of study habit does the author describe? Talk about it in your own words.Never make phone calls, watch television or have snacks wh en it’s time to study.Study is forever the first choice.(4) They must know how to pace each assignment or project according to their dailytimetable and work ability so that they might not beoverwhelmed by the tasks at hand.1) What can you infer from the expression “to pace each assignment or projectaccording to their daily timetable and work ability”?Our time and energy are limited, so we have to organize our assignments and activities skillfully so that we do not have too much to do and still have energy left near the end.2) Paraphra se “the tasks at hand”.Tasks that need to be dealt with now.(5) Another winning formula which teachers promote lies ina student’s ability to handin neat work.What does “formula” originally mean? What does it refer to here?Formula means a list of the substances used to make a medicine, drink, etc. Here winning formula refers to a method that leads to success.(6) According to one professor, the student who turns in neat work is already on theway to scoring an A.W hat can we i nfer from “is already on the way to scoring an A”?It is very likely that the student will get an A.(7) The experiment also illuminated the value of hypothetical tests conducted amongthe students and on their own.1) What is a “hypothetical test”?A hypothetical test is a test that is not real, but that might happen.2) Translate the sentence into Chinese.研究也证明了学生间互相进行模拟测试或自我测试的好处。
