How to become a better student
Maybe you are an average student.You probably think you will never be a top student.This is not necessary so,however.Anyone can become a better student if he or she wants to.Here’s how:
1)Plan your time carefully.When you plan your week,you should make a list of things that you have to do. After making this list,you should make a schedule of your time. First,list your time for eating,sleeping,dressing,etc.Then decide a good,regular time for studying. Don’t forget to set aside enough time for entertainment.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!When you sit down to study,concentrate on the subject.
3)Make good use of your time in class.Take advantage of the class time to listen to everything the teachers say. Really listening in class means less work later.Taking notes will help you remember what the teachers say.
4)Study regularly.When you get home from school,go over your notes.Review the important points that your teacher mentioned in class.If you know what your teacher is going to discuss the next day,read that material.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.
5)Develop a good attitude about tests.The purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about a subject.They help you remember your new knowledge.The world won’t end if you don’t pass a test,so don’t be overly worried.
There are other methods that might help you with your studying. You will probably discover many others after you have tried these.

说明文 | Jake Beckman呼吁出版商应对读者负责 | 361 | ★★★☆☆ |
The Internet is full of headlines that grab your attention with buzzwords (流行词). But often when we click through, we find the content hardly delivers and it wastes our time. We close the page, feeling we’ve been cheated. These types of headlines are called "click bait".
A headline on Businesslnsider.com reads: "This phrase will make you seem more polite". First, when you click through, you find another headline: "Four words to seem more polite." Then, on reading the article, you find it’s actually an essay about sympathy. And what are the four words? They’re "Wow, that sounds hard." On some video websites, you might encounter headlines such as "Here’s what happens when six puppies visited a campus". Turns out it’s just some uninteresting dog footage (镜头).
Nowadays, with the popularity of social media, many news outlets tweet (推送) click bait links to their stories. These tweets take advantage of the curiosity gap or attempt to draw the reader into a story using a question in the headline. These click bait headlines are so annoying that someone is attempting to save people time by exposing news outlet click bait through social media. The Twitter account @SavedYouAClick, run by Jake Beckman, is one such example.
Beckman’s method is to grab tweets linking to a story and retweet them with a click-saving comment. For example, CNET tweeted "So iOS 8 appears to be jailbreakable but...", with a link to its coverage of Apple’s product announcements. Beckman retweeted it with this comment attached: "... it hasn’t been jailbroken yet."
Since founding the account, Beckman’s Twitter experiment has brought him more than 131,000 followers. Beckman said that @SavedYouAClick is…"just my way of trying to help the Internet be less terrible." Asked about his goal, he said, "I’d love to see publishers think about the experience of their readers first. I think there’s an enormous opportunity for publishers to provide readers with informative updates that include links so you can click through and read more.
1.The article on Businesslnsider.com turns out to be___________.
A. useful suggestions on politeness

2.Why are readers often cheated by tricky headlines?

3.Beckman attached his comment to CNET’s tweet to __________.
A. criticize CNET B. save readers’ time
C. advertise apple’s new product D. tell readers something about iOS 8
4.In the last paragraph, Beckman appeals that _________.

The CRF’s produce is "green". made within the country and divided into 10 lines, with the Alcohol Series being the most popular. The Exotic Series一with Sichuan pepper, red bean (豆).cheese and other flavors一also does well and is fun to taste.
