【题目】New Year’s Plans for First Graders
The first year in high school can be very difficult. 【1】. An unsuccessful first year can hurt a student’s GPA(平均成绩点数)and more importantly, destroy his or her confidence. At the halfway point here, let’s suggest a few New Year’s Plans.
●Become a part of your school
Join a club, a sport or other activity that will give you a chance to develop your leadership, creativity and organizational skills. All those are important skills to have in college and in life. 【2】 .
●Work on your grades
First year grades are one-fourth of your high school GPA, but one-third of the GPA that will be handed to colleges when you apply. If you’ve had a difficult first three months, now is the time to get help. 【3】. It may be reading, math, or a certain other class. Many classes build on what was learned before, so determine what you have difficulty with and master it. If necessary, turn to your teacher.
●【4】
In high school, students must work more by themselves and manage their time well. If time management hasn’t been your strength, then make a system that will work for you. Many students need a homework notebook or electronic scheduling tool. 【5】 The attached article has great suggestions for managing time—a skill that if learned in high school, will be used for life.
