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

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．

Two brothers decided to dig a deep hole behind their house．As they were working, a couple of older boys stopped by to ．“What are you doing?” asked one of the visitors．“We plan to dig a hole all the way through the !” One of the brothers volunteered .

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

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。

The baby is just one day old and has not yet left hospital. She is quiet but alert（警觉）. Twenty centimeters from her face researchers have placed a white card with two black spots on it. She stares at it carefully. A researcher removes the card and replaces it by another, this time with the spots differently spaced. As the cards change from one to the other, her gaze（凝视）starts to lose its focus--until a third, with three black spots, is presented. Her gaze returns: she looks at it for twice as long as she did at the previous card. Can she tell that the number two is different from three, just 24 hours after coming into the world?

Or do newborns simply prefer more to fewer? The same experiment, but with three spots shown before two, shows the same return of interest when the number of spots changes. Perhaps it is just the newness? When slightly older babies were shown cards with pictures of objects (a comb, a key, an orange and so on), changing the number of objects had an effect separate from changing the objects themselves. Could it be the pattern that two things make, as opposed to three? No again. Babies paid more attention to squares moving randomly on a screen when their number changed from two to three, or three to two. The effect even crosses between senses. Babies who were repeatedly shown two spots became more excited when they then heard three drumbeats than when they heard just two; likewise（同样地）when the researchers started with drumbeats and moved to spots.

1.Babies are sensitive to the change in _______.

A. the size of cards B. the colour of pictures

C. the shape of patterns D. the number of objects

2.Why did the researchers test the babies with drumbeats?

A. To reduce the difficulty of the experiment

B. To see how babies recognize sounds

C. To carry their experiment further

D. To keep the babes interest.

3.Where does this text probably come from?

A. Science fiction B. Children’s literature

C. An advertisement D. A science report

For decades，the San Francisco Bay area has been the heart of the computer technology industry．Many of the biggest technology companies have their headquarters in the area called Silicon Valley．But the area has not always been associated with charity(慈善)．

Now，a new generation of entrepreneurs(企业家)appears to be changing Silicon Valley．One example is Marc Benioff，a donor(捐赠者)，who has called on wealthy donors to give more to their communities．He also is the founder of Salesforce．com，a computer services company in San Francisco who has helped build a children’s hospital and given millions of dollars to non-profit organizations in the city．

Money from the technology industry has also started to change the face of charity．Benjamin Soskis writes about the history and ideas behind charity in America．His articles have appeared in The Atlantic magazine and a number of major publications．He says，traditionally，donors have given after they spent much of their lives building up wealth．Usually donors are in their 70s．But an increasing number of people appearing on the list of top donors are younger than 40 years of age．Benjamin Soskis says that is something new．“There’s a whole new model that’s appearing in which people give and accumulate at the same time．”

Some of the young donors on this year's top 50 list have started to change in the way people see charity．That is especially the case in the San Francisco area，where giving money and making money appear to be coming together．“I think it's fair to say that charity is now a part of the Silicon Valley identity．”

1.What is true of Marc Benioff?

A．He joined a non-profit organization．

B．He advised donors to build hospitals．

C．He made San Francisco a city of charity．

D．He set up the company of Salesforce．com．

2.What is special about the donors of Silicon Valley?

A．They prefer to give rather than make money．

B．They give after accumulating a lot of wealth．

C．They are much younger than the usual donors．

D．They donate more money to their communities．

3.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?

A．The age of charity

B．The changing faces of charity

C．In search of new faces

D．From computer base to charity centre

Dr． Sylvia Earle wants you to stop eating fish． It's not because fish are endangered, though wild fish stocks in many oceans are very low． It's not because they're bad for you, though fish in many areas are exposed to poisonous substances in the water． It’s because they're smart．

"Fish are sensitive, they have personalities," says the marine biologist． For Earle, eating a fish would be like eating a dog or a cat． "I would never eat anyone I know personally．"

There's a lot more to fish than meets the eye: they talk to each other, they like to be touched, and they engage in behavior that can seem very human． They can remember things and learn from experience． Earle and a growing number of animal rights activists see these as strong arguments against eating fish altogether．

The activists also point out that fish feel pain and fish suffer horribly on their way from the sea to the supermarket． "While it may seem conspicuous that fish are able to feel pain, like every other animal, some people think of fish as swimming vegetables," says Dr． Lynne Sneddon． "Really, it's kind of a moral question． Is the enjoyment you get from fishing （or eating fish） more important than the pain of the fish?"

Fishermen and （fried） fish lovers are skeptical． "I've never seen a smart fish," says Marie Swaringen as she finishes off a plate of fish at a Seattle seafood restaurant． "If they were very smart, they wouldn't get caught．"

"For years, everyone's been telling us to eat fish because it's so good for us," says another diner． "Now I've got to feel guilty while I'm eating my fish? What are they going to think of next? Don't eat salad because cucumbers have feelings?"

1.According to Dr． Sylvia Earle, he would stop eating fish as a result of the following reasons EXCEPT ___________ ．

A．Fish are sensitive and have personalities

B．He knows fish very well

C．Fish are dangerous to eat because the water is polluted

D．Fish are clever

2.Dr.Lynne Sneddon describes the behavior of eating fish in a（n） _______ tone．

A．opposed B．optimistic

C．indifferent D．supportive

3.Which word below can take the place of the underlined word “conspicuous” in Paragraph 4?

A．obvious B．easy

C．impossible D．necessary

4.It can be inferred from the last paragraph that _____________ ．

A．Human beings should stop eating fish

B．We would feel guilty if we continued eating fish

C．People eat fish because fish are delicious

D．Cucumber is a kind of vegetable or fruit

5.What was the author’s purpose when writing this passage?

A．To advise people to stop eating fish．

B．To introduce a topic of whether people should eat fish．

C．To advise people not to stop eating fish．

D．To tell us that fish will feel pain when caught and transported．
