How to Graduate from College with a High GPA(Grade Point Average)

One Hour a Day

One of the most challenging things about college is time management. It’s not that you don’t have enough. In fact you usually have too much time, and as a result time gets wasted. If you take good notes in class, and spend one hour reviewing your notes every day before going to sleep, you will make use of the power of the subconscious(下意识)to absorb information and by the time exams come around you’ll know all the material on a subconscious level, and you don’t have to sit up the night before exams.

Select Easy Courses

The reason why selecting easy courses is powerful is that it allows you to start off your college career with an extremely high GPA. Good grades have less and less of an impact on your GPA later in your college career and raising your GPA becomes much more difficult. Selecting easy courses in the first term also leaves room for the occasional failure when coursework become more challenging.

Join (or Form) Study Groups

If you go to a large public school where classes often have 700 plus people, study groups are an extremely effective way to ensure good grades. Study groups are often led by older students who have taken the course and received A’s in that particular course. They also often provide you with resources such as practice tests, practice problems, and many others that might not be provided by professors.

Use Personal Development

I can honestly say I didn’t involve myself in personal development when I was in college. Looking back I realize that I suffered from low self-respect and a very unhealthy self-image. But, if I had combined personal development techniques with the three steps above, my college career would have turned out very differently.

If you have already started school, I recommend developing a strategy that applies these four ideas to your current schedule. If you haven’t started school yet, do some research on easier courses and what study groups might be available. If you follow through and commit to the four recommendations above, you’ll set yourself up for a very successful first term, and hopefully a very successful college career.

1.According to the passage, managing your time wisely leads to __________.

A. sitting up late before exams

B. spending less time each day

C. mastering what you learn in an easy way

D. benefiting from the notes

2.Group study is meant to let the students ___________.

A. study effectively

B. get along well with one another

C. practice solving problems

D. study independently

3.The winter attached least importance to ___________ when he was at college.

A. reviewing his lessons one hour a day

B. selecting easier courses to learn

C. involving a study group led by senior students

D. applying personal development techniques

4.From the passage we can infer that _____________.

A. every college student is to get a high GPA when graduated

B. personal development is that most important techniques of the 4 steps

C. the earlier you choose easy courses, the better performance you’ll have

D. the fist school year’s success plays an important role in your college career

Some time ago I discovered that one of my chairs had a broken leg. I didn’t think there would be any difficulty in getting it mended, as there are a whole lot of antique(古董) shops near my home. So I left home one morning carrying the chair with me. I went into the first shop expecting a friendly reception(接待). I was quite wrong. The man wouldn't even look at my chair.

The second shop, though slightly more polite, was just the same, and the third and the fourth—so I decided that my approach must be wrong.

I entered the fifth shop with a plan in my mind. I placed the chair on the floor and said to the shopkeeper, “Would you like to buy a chair?” “Twenty pounds,” I said. “OK,” he said. “I’ll give you twenty pounds.” “It’s got a slightly broken leg,” I said.” Yes, I saw that. It’s nothing.”

Everything was going according to plan and I was getting excited. “What will you do with it?” I asked. “Oh, it will be easy to sell once the repair is done.” “I'll buy it,” I said. “What do you mean?” “You've just sold it to me,” he said. “Yes, I know but I've changed my mind. I am sorry. I'll give you twenty-seven pounds for it.” “You must be crazy,” he said. Then, suddenly the penny dropped. “I know what you want. You want me to repair your chair.” “You're right,” I said. “And what would you have done if I had walked in and said, ‘Would you mend this chair for me?’” “I wouldn't have agreed to do it,” he said. “We don't do repairs, not enough money in it and too much trouble. But I'll mend this for you, shall we say for a fiver?” He was a very nice man and was greatly amused by the whole thing.

1.We can learn from the text that in the first shop the writer_________.

A. was rather impolite

B. was warmly received

C. asked the shopkeeper to buy his chair

D. asked the shopkeeper to repair his chair

2.The expression “the penny dropped” in the last paragraph means the shopkeeper ____.

A. changed his mind

B. accepted the offer

C. saw the writer's purpose

D. decided to help the writer

3.From the text, we can learn that the writer was _________.

A. honest B. careful C. smart D. funny

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

I was ten when I first sat with my grandmother behind the cashier（收银台）in her general store．1. _I quickly learned the importance of treating customers politely and saying “thank you．”

At first I was paid in candy．2. I worked every day after school, and during the summer and on weekends and holidays from 8 a．m．to 7 p．m．My father helped me set up a bank account． 3.

By the time I was 12, my grandmother thought I had done such a good job that she promoted me to selling cosmetics（化妆品）I developed the ability to look customers directly in the eye．Even though I was just a kid, women would ask me such things as “What color do you think I should wear?” I took a real interest in their questions and was able to translate what they wanted into makeup（化妆）ideas． 4.

The job taught me a valuable lesson: to be a successful salesperson, you didn’t need to be a rocket scientist—you needed to be a great listener．5. Expect they are no longer women purchasing cosmetics from me; instead, they are kids who tell me which toys they would like to see designed and developed．

A．Watching my money grow was more rewarding than anything I could have bought．

B．Soon I found myself looking more beautiful than ever before．

C．Today I still carry that lesson with me: I listen to customers．

D．My grandma’s trust taught me how to handle responsibility

E．I ended my selling a record amount of cosmetics．．

F．Before long, she let me sit there by myself．

G．Later I received 50 cents an hour．

D Before I studied psychology, I used to think that people would laugh when funny things occurred．While I was right about that, I discovered there are lots of other psychological factors that make people laugh other than the funny part of a joke．When someone laughs at a joke, there will usually be more than one reason that makes him laugh—and the more reasons there are, the more powerful the joke will be．

I was attending a stand-up comedy show in Egypt, and when the man started to make fun of pedestrians crossing streets, everyone laughed their hearts out．The main reason those people strongly laughed was that almost all of them felt angry towards pedestrians who crossed streets carelessly．The joke wasn’t only funny, it also made the audience feel that they were right about being angry at those pedestrians．That is, people were laughing both because of the funny joke and because of the happiness experienced as a result of the psychological support they got．

The better a joke makes a person feel, and the more it includes other psychological factors, the more the person will like it．For example, if you envy one of your friends, and someone tells a joke that is funny and, at the same time, makes your friend seem stupid, then you will probably laugh at it louder than if you weren’t jealous of him．

In short, we don’t laugh only when we hear something funny; we also laugh when we experience some kind of happiness that results from the other psychological factors involved in the joke．I strongly discourage making fun of anyone or belittling someone to make someone else laugh．All I want to explain is that if your joke supports a person’s emotions, he will certainly like it a lot．

1. What did the author find out after studying psychology?

A．Only good jokes make people laugh

B．Many factors lead to people laughing．

C．Funny things can make people laugh

D．Laughter can make people healthy．

2.Why did the audience laugh loud at the pedestrians?

A．They played a trick on the pedestrians．

B．The pedestrians behaved in a funny way．

C．They could feel the pedestrians’ happiness．

D．Their emotion was approved of by the show．

3.What does the underlined word “belittling” probably mean?

A．Annoy

B．Blame

C．Look down on

D．Make up to

4.Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage?

A．

B．

C．

D．

Joy in the Journey If you have ever been discouraged because of failure, please read on．For often, achieving what you set out to do is not the important thing．Let me explain．

The older boys began to , telling the younger ones that digging a hole all the way through the earth was ．After a long silence, one of the picked up a jar full of spiders, worms and many other kinds of insects．He the lid and showed the wonderful to the scoffing（嘲笑的）visitors．Then he said quietly and , “Even if we don’t dig all the way through the earth, look at what we have found the way!”

Their goal was far too ambitious, but it did cause them to dig．And that is a goal is for — to cause us to move in the we have chosen, in other words, to keep us ! But not every goal will be fully ．Not every job will end ．Not every hope will come to pass．Not every love will last．Not every dream will be ．But when you fall of your aim, perhaps you can say, “Yes, but look at what I found along the way! Look at the wonderful things my life because I tried to do something!” It is in the digging life is lived．And I believe it is the joy in the journey, in the end, that truly ．

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。

In a room at Texas Children Cancer Center in Houston, eight-year-old Simran Jatar lay in bed with a drip (点滴) above her to fight her bone cancer. Over her bald head, she wore a pink hat that matched her clothes. But the third grader’s cheery dressing didn’t mask her pain and weary eyes.

Then a visitor showed up. “Do you want to write a song?” asked Anita Kruse, 49, rolling a cart equipped with an electronic keyboard, a microphone and speakers. Simran stared. “Have you ever written a poem?” Anita Kruse continued. “Well, yes,” Simran said.

Within minutes, Simran was reading her poem into the microphone“Some bird soaring through the sky,” she said softly. “Imagination in its head…” Anita Kruse added piano music, a few warbling (鸣,唱) birds, and finally the girl’s voice. Thirty minutes later, she presented Simran with a CD of her first recorded song.

That was the beginning of Anita Kruse’s project, Purple Songs Can Fly, one that has helped more than 125 young patients write and record songs. As a composer and pianist who had performed at the hospital, Kruse said that the idea of how she could help “came in one flash”.

The effect on the kids has been great. One teenage girl, curling (蜷缩) in pain in her wheelchair, stood unaided to dance to a hip-hop song she had written. A 12-year-old boy with Hodgkin’s disease who rarely spoke surprised his doctors with a song he called I Can Make It.

“My time with the kids is heartbreaking because of the severity of their illnesses,” says Anita Kruse. “But they also make you happy, when the children are smiling, excited to share their CD with their families.”

Simran is now an active sixth grader and cancer-free. From time to time, she and her mother listen to her song, Always Remembering, and they always remember the “really sweet and nice and loving” lady who gave them a shining moment in the dark hour.

1.Simran Jatar lay in bed in hospital because ______.

A. most of her hair had fallen out

B. she was receiving treatment for cancer

C. she felt depressed and quit from school

D. she was suffering from a pain in her back

2.What do we know about Anita Kruse’s project?

A. It helps young patients record songs.

B. It is supported by singers and patients.

C. It aims to replace the medical treatment.

D. It offers patients chances to realize their dreams.

3.What does the case of a 12-year-old boy suggest?

A. Most children are naturally fond of music.

B. He was brave enough to put up performance.

C. The project has positive effect on young patients.

D. Singing is the best way to treat some illnesses.

4.What is probably the best title for the passage?

A. Purple Songs Can Fly B. Singing Can Improve Health

C. A Shining Moment in Life D. A Kind Woman—Anita Kruse
