Have you ever got stuck with unwanted courses or a class schedule that cannot be changed? If so, that’s because you don’t know how to select the perfect schedule.But by following a few simple steps, you can begin any term with the right courses at the most convenient times.

First, you must find the right courses.These are the ones that have the least amount of work, the fewest tests and the kindest professors.Ask your friends about courses in which they received A’s after attending only 70 percent of the classes.Ask around, too, to see which instructors have given the same tests for the last fifteen years.Photocopies of these tests are usually cheap and can be easily found in school.Then, pick up a copy of the master schedule and study it carefully.Find the course titles that mean an easy pass for a painless subject.Look for titles like “Arts and Crafts for Beginners,” and “Rock Music of the 1950s.”

Next, when you have got lists of easy instructors and subjects you can begin to select your time periods.If you stay up late in order to watch old movies, you may want a daily schedule that begins no sooner than noon.You should schedule only afternoon courses, too, if you’re one of those people who hate to leave a warm bed in the morning.On the other hand, if you are a person who gets out of bed at dawn, you may want to get your classes as early as possible.That way you have the rest of the day free.Morning classes are also necessary if you are a soap opera(肥皂剧)fan.

Finally, you want your schedule to pass through registration successfully.The main way to do this is to register(注册)early.If a course does happen to be closed because you simply couldn’t register at 7:00 a.m., you may still be able to get in.Talk to the professor and tell him or her that a serious and hardworking student like yourself would be a shining example to other students.Be sure to carry a list of backup courses to registration, though, just in case one of your chosen classes changes professors or time periods.By following these suggestions, any student can pick the perfect class schedule.College can thus become an almost pleasant activity.

Which of the following statements is true?

A.You can get copies of tests if you are willing to pay the price.

B.“Rock Music of the 1950s” may be an easy course.

C.It is difficult to pick the perfect class schedule.

D.Attendance is required in all classes.

You should           

A.register for classes in the morning if you get up early

B.have classes late in the morning if you stay up late

C.sign up for afternoon classes if you want to see soap operas

D.choose classes in the evening if you want to watch old films

If a course happens to be closed, you should            

A.register at 7:00 a.m.                       B.sit in on the class anyway

C.register for a backup course                 D.get help from the professor

Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?

A.Course Registration Made Easy       B.How to Find the Right Courses   

C.Classes and After-class Activities     D.How to Pick the Perfect Schedule

Students' Union

Every University has a Students' Union. If students are the lifeblood of a university, the Union is surely its beating heart.

For students, by students

A Students’ Union is run by students and acts independently. At the end of each academic year, it will find six students to hold a sabbatical(带有休假的) position managing the Union for the coming year. That the six successful sabbatical officers have only recently experienced issues affecting students ensures that your needs are very well understood.

Letting your hair down

Although the University is spread across a fairly wide area, the Union is centrally located and is only a short walk from any of the main buildings. This makes it very easy to catch up with friends who might be on a different course.

At night, the place really comes alive – we have three different bars to suit every occasion. The venues are student-only so you can be sure of meeting people with a similar outlook and we throw in a transport service to make sure you get home safely.

The Union also organizes various formal balls throughout the year, with the highlight being the end-of-year ball.

Supporting you

Beyond having fun, we also make sure some of the more serious issues are effectively dealt with. If you have a problem with your course, another sabbatical officer is trained to help you. Being independent from the University means we can represent and support you to the best of our ability, and once you reach university you may find that you become aware of more national or political issues.

In America , driver’s education is part of the regular high school curriculum. Every student in his or her second year of high school is required to take a class in driver’s education. However, unlike other courses, it is not given during the regular school year. Instead it is a summer course.
The course is divided up into two parts: class time for learning laws and regulations and driving time to practice driving. Class time is not unlike any other class. The students have a text from which they study the basic laws they must know to pass the written driving test that is given to anyone wanting to get a driver’s license.
Driving time is a chance for the students to get behind the wheel(steering wheel) and practice starting steering, backing up, parking, switching lanes, turning corners, and all the other maneuvers (操作) required to drive a car. Each student is required to drive a total of six hours. The students are divided up into groups of four. The students and the instructor go out driving for two hour blocks of time. Thus, each student gets half an hour driving time per outing. The instructor and “driver” sit in the front seats and the other three students sit in the back.
Drivers ED cars are unlike other cars in which they have two sets of brakes, one on the driver’s side and one on the other side where the instructor sits. Thus , if the student driver should run into difficulties the instructor can take over. The car also has another special feature. On the top of the car is a sign that reads: STUDENT DRIVER. That lets nearby drivers know that they should use extra caution because the student driver is a beginning driver, not very experienced and prone to driving slowly.
After the student has passed the driver’s education course and reached the appropriate age to drive(this age differs in every state but in most cases the person must be 16 years old),they can go to a designated state office to take their driver’s test, which is made up of an eye examination, a written test, and a road test. The person must pass all three tests in order to be given a driver’s license. If the person did well in his or her driver’s education class, he or she will pass the test with flying colors and get a driver’s license.
