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 simple steps, you can begin any term with the right courses at the most convenient times.

　　First, you must find the right course. 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 out of the way as early as possible. That way you have the rest of the day free. Morning classes are also necessary if you are a soap opers(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 back-up 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.

解析：

1．B　从第一段中“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’”可知，“Rock Music of the 1950s”可能是一门比较容易的课程。

2．A　从第三段中“On the other hand, if you're a person who gets out of bed at dawn, you may want to get your classes out of the way as early as possible”可知如果起得早，可以选择早上的课程。

3．D　倒数第二段“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”表明，如果某门课程已经结束，你可以从教授那得到帮助。

     Have you ever asked your customers and potential customers how they'd like to hear from you?Some
of them might check email messages regularly throughout the day; some of them might check their messages only once or twice a day; and some of them might not use email at all.
     If you've been automatically using email to avoid lengthy phone conversations, first check to see if that's
also your customers' preferred method of communication.Then consider the benefits of picking up the
phone.
     I know, email is convenient.It gives you a record of what was said, and it lets you communicate without wasting any time on chitchat.But it also removes that little human bond of friendliness.It prevents you from
finding a common ground-such as a shared interest in a hobby.The phone allows that.
     Using the telephone also aids in communication.A misunderstood question in an email can take several
messages back and forth to clarify.On the phone you can say "No, I meant..."and then you can restate your question in a different way.Instead of being a timewaster, the phone can sometimes be a timesaver.
     Be sure to ask your customers if they'd prefer documents sent to them by email or fax -because some
people really do prefer the fax.Remember that they're busy too.They might not want to sit at their computer opening files and printing pages of documents.For some, it's much more convenient to walk over to the fax machine and pick up the preprinted documents.
     There's an old saying:People don't care how much you know until they know how much you care.Let
your customers know that you care about communicating with them in their way.Asking is merely adding
another level of customer service.
      Knowing how your people like to communicate can be even more important with prospective customers.
      Say you're sending a proposal for a project and competing with another vendor.If you assume that your prospective client reads his or her email regularly you might transmit your proposal as an attachment.
     If your assumption is wrong, and if your competitor has taken the time to learn that your prospective
customer really wants to receive documents via fax, your prospective client might not even see your
proposal until after the job is awarded.
      It only takes a minute to ask the question, and it might make a big difference in your income.

     Have you ever noticed what happens to an idea once you express it ? Just talking about it or writing
it down causes you to make it clear in your own mind. How can you use this to increase your brain
power? Start writing.
     By putting thoughts into words, you are telling yourself the logic behind what you think, feel,or only
partly understand. Often,explaining a thought is the process of understanding. In other words, you increase your brain power by exercising your"explain power".
     Another benefit of writing is that it helps you remember. Many,if not most,highly productive people are always taking notes. You can try keeping it all in your head,but if you keep a journal (日志)of your ideas
the next time you're working on a big project, you'11 probably have more success.
    Want to understand a topic? Write a book about it. That's an extreme example, but if you are learning
something new,write a letter to a friend about it,and you will understand it better. Want to invent something?  Write an explanation of the problem---why you want to solve it,and why it is worth solving, and
you're half-way there.
    Writers don't always write because they clearly understand something beforehand. Often,they write
about something because they want to understand it. You can do the same. Writing will help bring you to
all understanding. Give it a try.

     Have you ever heard the old saying, "Never judge a book by its cover."? This is a good rule to
follow when trying to judge the intelligence of others. Some people have minds that shine only in
certain situations. A young man with an unusual gift in writing may find himself speechless before a
pretty girl when he speaks. He may not be able to find the right words. But don't make the mistake
of thinking him stupid. With a pen and paper, he can express himself better than anybody else.
    Other people may fool you into overestimating(过高估计) their intelligence by putting up a good
front. A student who listens attentively and takes notes in class is bound to (一定会) make a favorable
impression on his teachers. But when it comes to exams, he may score near the bottom of the class.
    In a word, you can't judge someone by appearance. The only way to determine a person's intelligence
is to get to know him. Then you can see how he reacts to different situations. The more situations you
see, the better your judgment is likely to be. So take your time. Don't judge a book by its cover.

     "Have you ever heard the old saying, "Never judge a book by its cover"? This is a good rule to follow when you try to judge the cleverness of others by their looks and performance. Some people have minds
that shine only in certain situations. A young man with an unusual gift in novel writing may find himself
speechless before a pretty girl. But don't make the mistake of thinking he might not be that clever. With a
pen and paper, he can tell what he thought very well.
     Other people may fool you into mistakenly thinking they are clever by putting up a good front.
A student who listens carefully and takes notes in class is sure to make a good impression on his teachers. But when it comes to exams, he may get scores much lower than his classmates.
     We may conclude that: you can't judge someone by appearances. The only way to tell whether a
person is clever or not is to get to know him by observing(观察) how he reacts to different situations. The more situations you observe, the more accurate your judgment is likely to be. So take your time. Don't
judge the book by its cover.

     Have you ever heard your own voice? "Of course," you say.  
     Has anyone else ever heard your voice? Again you say, "Of course."
     But that's not quite true.  Nobody else has ever heard your voice-the way you hear it.  When you
talk,  you set up sound waves.  The air outside your head carries the sound waves to your outer ears.
  But,  of course,  the sound of your voice begins inside your head.  The bones of your head pick up
the sound waves,  too.  They carry the sound waves straight to your inner ears.  You get the sound
from the outside and the inside too.  Other people get just the sound waves from the outside.  That is
why they don't hear your voice the way you do.
