One needs to be familiar with some foreign languages in order to understand his or her own native language.About Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749-1832): a German poet and scientist, and one of the best known writers of plays and books of all time, known especially for his play Faust (《浮士德》).Walt Whitman1⊙Language is not an abstract (抽象的) construction of the learned (有学问的人), or of dictionary-makers, but is something arising out of the work, needs, ties, joys, affections, tastes of long generations of humanity, and has its bases broad and low, close to the ground.— Walt WhitmanInterpretation:Language is not something produced from nowhere by the intellectuals or dictionary-makers. Rather, it is something coming from the commonplace activities and emotions of many generations of human beings, including their work, needs, relationships, happiness, love and preferences. Language is broadly and deeply rooted in these common happenings.About Walt Whitman (1819-1892): a US writer known for his poetry about the beauty of nature and the value of freedom. He is regarded as one of the greatest and most influential US poets, and his best-known work is Leaves of Grass.David Beckham⊙I haven’t conquered Spanish yet. I’m learning and understand what’s said during training. I’m progressing little by little. Spanish is very difficult for me, although I am getting used to it. I am making an effort. It’s complicated. But if I can conquer Spanish, it will have been a great achievement.— David BeckhamInterpretation:Here Beckham, the world-famous football star, shares with us his experience in learning a foreign language. From what Beckham says, we can see that learning a foreign language is difficult for everyone. But if we make an effort, we can conquer it. As the saying goes, where there is a will, there is a way.About David Beckham (1975- ): David Beckham became known as a football talent at the age of 11. He joined Manchester United as a professional midfielder (中锋) in January 1993. In June 2003, he moved to Spain and joined Real Madrid.

Unit 1 College life1. Write an essay in about 100–120 words based on your discussion in Optional Classroom Activities. You can take either of the following titles:1) I like to study on my own2) I like to study in a group2. If you didn’t do Task 3 in Optional Classroom Activities you can write an essay of around 120 words on the following topic.College Is Not an Ivory Tower▆ Sample Essays for Task 1:I like to study on my ownMany of my classmates like to study together. However, I always like to study on my own, with good reasons. First, I feel that I can concentrate better when I study alone. When I have to work together with other people, I often get distracted and more often than not, I end up chatting with them without completing the task at hand. Second, when I study on my own, I can work at my own pace, choosing to spend more time on certain difficult sections and less time on less challenging parts. I can also check my class notes or reference books whenever I feel the need to. One final good advantage of studying alone is that unlike group work, self study is not restricted by time and space. In other words, if I feel like studying, I can do so at any time and anywhere. (146 words)I like to study in a groupAccording to a recent study, students who study together by discussing homework and problems usually score higher than those who work on their own. I am happy to hear that because I like to study in a group. I think we can reinforce our understanding of what we have learned in class by asking each other questions. Besides, it is always enjoyable working with someone else. A discussion on questions we don’t understan d very well will help clear up any possible confusion. Last but not least, we should not ignore the importance of cooperation in our society. Working with others helps develop our team spirit, which has become essential in this modern world of ours. After all, two heads are always better than one. (125 words)▆ Sample Essay for Task 2:College Is Not an Ivory TowerPeople often say that college is an ivory tower and life on campus is cut off from the harsh realities of the real world. College may have been an ivory tower before, but it is not so any more. We college students are under various kinds of pressure. First of all, most of us are burdened with a heavy tuition fee, which keeps on increasing every year. So some of us have to work over ten hours every week. Life for those who can get financial help from their parents is not easy either, as they very often have to follow their parents’ advice and take a major they don’t like. Finally those who are about to graduate suffer from a different kind of pressure: hunting for a job. It is no longer easy for a college student to get a decently paid job these days. (134 words)Unit 2 Learning a language▆Write a passage in about 100-120 words, taking either of the following titles:1) Why I like to learn English2) Why I hate to learn English▆Sample essay for Task 1:Why I like to learn EnglishI have learned English for about seven years. I should say that I am highly motivated to master English. First of all, learning English is useful, as it is becoming a world language and people from different countries often communicate with one another in English. If I am good at English, it will be much easier for me to communicate with them. Secondly, I like traveling a lot. A good mastery of English will make things much easier for me when traveling around the world. Finally, I like literature a lot. If I am very good at English, I can read great works by Shakespeare and Dickens and many other English writers instead of reading the translated versions.▆Sample essay for Task 2:Why I hate to learn EnglishI have learned English for about seven years. I should say the more I learn English, the more I hate it. First of all, learning English is boring. I have to memorize many new words or rely on a dictionary to frequently check unknown words. Doing so wastes a lot of my precious time. Secondly, I don’t understand why we have to learn a foreign language. I don’twant to go abroad and I can always find a job that doesn’t need English in China. Finally, I can always read translated versions of the books I want to read. So, i f I don’t have to learn English, I would rather use the time I spend on English to do things I like.Unit 3 Parents and Children1.In about 100-120 words, write about an incident of misunderstanding between you and your mother/father. Tell usabout how it all started and what happened in the end.2.In about 100-120 words, describe the similarities and differences in the way your father and mother show their lovefor you . Be sure to give examples.▆Sample essay for Task 1A misunderstanding between my mother and IOne afternoon, I was wandering along the main street of our small town with a friend. Suddenly I saw my mother. She was behaving very strangely. She looked around her before going quickly into a shop. When she came out, she had a box in her hand. I was terrified. I knew some of my villagers resorted to theft because they were poor. The thought that my mother could be one of them drove me crazy. I was determined to find out the truth from her. When I questioned her, tears filled her eyes. She told me she was collecting beer cans from some kind shop owners who offered them to her, but would feel embarrassed if she was seen by others. I cried and hugged her and felt sorry that I had misunderstood my own mother.▆Sample essay for Task 2:My parents’ loveMy parents differ greatly in showing their love for me. While my mother appears more anxious and depressed if anything goes wrong with me, my father tends to be silent and expresses his concern for me mainly through actions rather than words. I still remember the day when I left home for university. When my mother was in tears and kept giving me endless advice, my father remained silent. But when he saw an ice-cream man on the platform, he rushed towards him and got me an ice-cream just before the train started to move. I learned from my mother later that my father locked himself up in his room after returning home and cried for the first time in his life. I never expected that my departure would trigger such an emotional response from my father.Unit 4 Growing up1. In about 100-120 words, write about a conflict you once had with your parents .You can start with either of the following openings:1) I was very unhappy with my mother/father the other day…2) I was grateful that my mother/father criticised me the other day…2.Describe your attitude toward your father or mother when you were a teenger. When you could not agree with each other, what did you do? Use an incident from daily life to support the description.▆Sample essay for Task 1:I was very unhappy with my mother /father the other day. . .I was very unhappy with my father the other day. He must have called out to me for help with some housework, but I was so absorbed in reading that I did not hear him. He stepped into my room , apparently in anger, grabbed my book and threw it on the floor. I got upset and insisted he should pick it up and apologize to me. When he remained silent, I ran out and went off to play games with friends in the neighbourhood. When it was turning dark, I saw my father looking for me. He patted me on the head walked back home with me, his arm wrapped around my shoulder. When I got home, I saw my book had "returned" to my reading table.▆Sample essay for Task 2:I was very grateful that my mother /father criticised the other day. . .I was grateful that my mother criticised me the other day. I had been asking her for money to buy all kinds of things that my friends have--a new pair of shoes or some new clothes. Every time I was refused, I played the same trick -- threatening to pour the dish she cooked for the family into the river. My mother gave in each time I threatened to do that, but one day, she criticised me really hard. She scolded me for being selfish and inconsiderate and asked me to sit in acorner and reflect on my own behavior. I could not believe my mother could be so angry with me and I grew afraid. I learned a good lesson and changed a lot afterwards. I was thankful that my mother made me realize my mistakes.▆Sample essay for Task 2:I was so proud of my fatherMy father is a well-known carpenter in my village. I still remember that when I was in my mid-teens, I used to adore him make furniture for the villagers. He not only had good skills, but he was also willing to help the villagers with minor repairs such as mending a broken window frame or fixing a door, without charge. All the villagers respected him. They also paid me compliments when they saw me helping him , saying that I would grow up to become honest and industrious just like my father. I was so proud that I had a father who was so well respected.Unit 5 Knowing YourselfWrite a passage of about 100-120 words according to one of the instructions given below.1) Describe a few of your own personality traits. Then identify your favourite colour and see if the descriptions of the colour in Text B match your personality.2) Think of the person you admire most. Write two personality traits that you like most about this person. Remember to give an example for each personality trait.3) Imagine that you had been given a wish to change your life. Write about two personality traits that you would like to have and give your reasons.4) Write about a person whom you dislike most and give one or two reasons or examples why you dislike him or her so much.▆Sample essay 1)I have been described by many friends as a warm, sociable, and outgoing extravert. I find it easy to make new friends and I enjoy the company of people who share similar characteristics as I. When I am at a party, many people including those I do not know, will talk to me. I am not a great beauty, neither am I rich and intelligent. In fact, I am just a very simple person who is happy and smiles a lot. Maybe being happy is the attraction. I like bright colours, especially red. It is said that people who like red are passionate and have a lot of energy. I agree that I am enthusiastic about many things and like doing many things at the same time. So it seems there is some truth after all in what colours say about a person’s personality.▆Sample essay 2)The person I admire most is my father’s youngest brother. He is known to us as ba shu because he is the eighth son in a family of eleven. He is a high achiever. Since young, he has done well in his studies and work. For example, he received a prestigious scholarship to study at a well-known medical school in England. Today, at the age of 62, he is still as outgoing. He is a well-respected surgeon and has won many awards. What I like most about ba shu is his sensitive nature, especially toward children who are born unlucky. He has volunteered his time and made sacrifices to help those in poor and developing countries. His strong desire to bring happiness to these people has impress me a lot.▆Sample essay 3)If I were given a wish to have two personality traits, I would choose to be an optimistic person because those who are optimistic are usually satisfied and content with what they have. They seldom let sadness be a part of their life. I want to be happy and being optimistic is one way to remain happy. I also would like to be creative. I think that creativity is inherited. Some may disagree and say that we can learn to be creative. However, no matter how hard one learns, it is those born with the talent of creativity who will make a great name for themselves like the famous poet Li Bai and the richest man in the world, Bill Gates.▆Sample essay 4)There is no one person I disagree most but there are a couple of personality traits that I cannot tolerate: aggressiveness and selfishness. Aggressive people do not consider other’s feelings and will not think twice about hurting even those closest to them. I once had a neighbour who would beat his wife one day and appear loving the next. His wife lived in fear constantly but could do nothing because he was in control of her. Another personality trait I dislike is selfishness. Likeaggressive people, selfish people only think of themselves. There are many everyday examples of selfishness such as those not willing to lend things to others and those not wanting to share exam tips even with their best friends. If you know someone with a combination of aggressiveness and selfishness, you should consider whether to call him or her a friend.。

第一单元-clozeHow can student do well at school ? Are straight-A students always those who are the brightest? Students are very interesting in getting answers to questions like these as achieving academic excellence is , and will always be, one of their top priorties at school.A professor of education who has recently conducted a survey on the subject revealed that top grades do not always go to the brightest students . When some basic principles are followed, everyone can become a top student.to begin with, study should always be the number one priority for a student. Study time is always guaranteed and should never be compromised for personal recreation such as movies, tv programs or snacks. In addition, learning to be organized is very important. Keeping everything in its place and filing class notes in order are two good examples.Speaking up in class and asking questions is another winning formula. A student can clarify any doubts by asking questions. Particpation in group study is another help. by framing tentative test questions based on class notes, students can help each other prepare for tests. Last but not least, always hand in neat work. A student who turns in nest work is already on the way to scoring an A.A student may suffer from different kinds of pressure at school, but if he follows these principles in his studies, sooner or later he will become a top student.第二单元-clozeMany of us these days are learning language a foreign language. We are interesting in learning another language because we know that knowledge of another language and culture will increase our career opportunities, broaden our horizons and enrich our life. Since learning a foreign language is of such importance, no doubt people are constantly looking for more efficient ways of language learning. Most people say the best way to learn language is to say in the country where it is spoken. It is true those who go to a native country have advantage over those who don't . But living abroad needs money, and not everyone can affort to do so. Those who don't go abroad may turn to language schools for nguage schools usually claim that they can teach student to speak the language they want to learn fluently within 3 to 6 months because they have more qualified teachers and better facilities. To a certain extent, a good teacher is indeed important in language learning, but it would be ridiculous to claim that any teacher has discovered a perfect way of teaching English in every possible situation. In fact, there are as many good methods of teaching a language as there are good teachers,because every teacher is an individual with his / her own personality. What a student needs to remember then is to is to find out a method that best suits himself / herself.第四单元-clozeWhen I was a child, I was really proud of heaving a father who was a well-respected doctor. I beamed whenever my teachers said that I was set to become an honorableman like my father. However, all this changed when I grew into a teenager. I felt awkward that everybody around me only remembered me as Dr.Song's son. I protested and told them that I would prefer to stand on my own two feet. However, my compliments were never taken seriously and I continued to hear compliments about me, which were really meant for my father.I then grew very stubborn and even refused to call my father "Dad." Although my father forwned whenever I called him "Lao Song" my attitude towards him, as now recall, did not change until I had a car accident one day. I hit a young man's car and panicked as he threatened to beat me up when I told him no car insurance. When I got off my car and surveyed the damage, I could not help groaning.Out of fear, I told him "I'm Dr.Song's son." At this, a sign of recognition lit up his face; he smiled and forgave me. What could have been a very difficult situation turned out to be fine just because I was Dr.Song's son. How thankful I felt towards my father.第五单元-clozeWhen a person is born, he / she has a set of personalities that make him / her different from others. Psychologists believe that colors are sometimes a good way to include how a person behaves and the way he / she responds to things that are happening to him / her. They can also represent personality traits.Nonetheless, we cannot be absolutely sure about a person's characteristics by just looking at his / her preference for certain colors.Therefore, we should not be harsh and critical toward a person just because he / she likes specific color that not represent some positive traits or characteristics. Psychologists also believe that everyone can develop or change his / her personality. For example, if an individual wants to correct his / she negative traits such as his / she has to be immature behavior, he / she has to make an effort to do so. He /She has to be persistant and keep working hard to ensure that he / she can achieve his / her goal. Therefore, if a person is determined, he / she can change the traits he / she inherits from his / her parents. The important thing is to change for the better and not for the worse.第七单元-clozeBeing a good boss has never been easy for me. The most difficult part is not about work, but about dealing with relationships at the workplace. I each and every employee in my company is significant to its development, I need to give enough attention and care to everyone ang to be approachable to all. At the start of the business, I encountered difficult situations and I was unsure what the best way was to handle them. For example, when an employee made a mistake, I hesitated about whether to scold him or her. Would I appear to be an important boss to my employees if I did so?Would they continue to make mistakes if I was too lenient? Sometimes, I had to settle disputes among the employees if they did not see eye to eye with each other on some tasks. This too was difficult. Should I blame any party or should I defend anyone? How would I bring them to see their differences and find solutions without hurting each other ? Sometimes I also encountered difficultemployees who seemed to feel miserable whatever I did for them . Life has never been easy , but I have learning the ropes along the way. The essential principle is to treat the employees sincerely, appreciate their contributions to the company and reward them according. My employees are happy to have me as their boss, and are offering me all the assistance they could . They have great enthusiasm for their word and have contributed significantly to the company's development.。

If I am good at English, it will be much easier for me to communicate with them. Secondly, I like traveling a lot.

Doing so wastes a lot of my precious time. Secondly, I don’t understand why we have to learn a foreign language.

(Para. 16)May I point out that if we don’t leave now we shall miss the bus?Checking Your Comprehension1 Answer the following questions with the information contained in Text B.1) What does the writer mean by “brutal economy”?Para. 2 in the text provides the answer. Studying at college means a huge sum of money to pay for tuition, room and board, books andmany other expenses. A student may have a loan of up to $5,000 when he graduates, and this same student has to work both part-time and full-time whenever possible at college.2) Why are humanities courses not popular with parents?Parents want to make sure that their children have a secure future and they don’t think that humanities subjects with no “practical” value will pay off.3) What are the possible reactions of a student who suffers from peer pressure?Examples of possible reactions include:a. always thinking other students are brighter and study harder;b. studying at the library as late as possible;c. doing homework till early morning;d. getting into a panic when exams are approaching and papers are due;e. getting sick and stuck;f. oversleeping due to tiredness; andg. doing more than expected.4) Who can help to free students from the pressures they suffer from? Professors, parents, and friends can help to free students from the pressures they suffer from, but it is the students themselves who should relieve themselves of the pressures.5) Explain in your own words why, according to the text, economic pressure is closely connected with parental pressure, and peer pressure with self-induced pressure.a. Students normally find it hard to cope with different kinds of fees at college without parental help. However, when students do get financial help from their parents, they will feel obligated to follow their parents’ advice, sometimes against their own will, because after all, their parents are paying all their expenses at college.b. When a student thinks that his / her peers are brighter and study harder, he / she will push himself / herself more, which will in turn induce more pressure on himself / herself.2 Read the following statements and then decide whether each of them is true or false based on the information in the text. Write T for True and F for False in the space provided before each statement. 1)T Without parental help, a student may be expected to have a large loan to pay back after graduation.2) F Many students dream of becoming dentists.(Many students don’t want to take pre-medical courses. So they go off to their labs as if they were going to see a dentist.)3)T Knowledge in the humanities can help create leaders in all general fields.4)T Lawyers, doctors and businessmen usually earn more than most of other people.5) F Students who finish an assignment up to requirements will be given the same credits as those who have done more.(When most students are doing more than they are expected to, those who are doing normal work can be perceived as not doing well.)3 Listed in the left column are the four pressures faced by college students and in the right column are causes or consequences linked to the pressures. Relate the causes or consequences to the types of pressure by following the example given. Some causes or consequences can be related to more than one type of pressure.Types of Pressure Causes or ConsequencesA. economic pressure ( a, d )B. parental pressure a. loans to payb. taking some courses unwillinglyc. taking courses with “practical value”( b, c )C. peer pressure( e, f, g )D. self-induced pressure ( e, f, g )d. heavy tuition fees, expenses on rooms and bookse. thinking some fellow students are working harderf. staying in the library till very lateg. doing more work than required4 Read the following sentences carefully and discuss in pairs what the author intends to say by the italicized parts.1) But there are no villains; only victims. (Para. 1)Nobody is to blame for the pressures college students are suffering; all involved are victims.2) They go off to their labs as if they were going to the dentist. (Para. 4) Many students who are taking pre-medical courses don’t like this major at all.3) They are caught in one of the oldest webs of love and duty and guilt. (Para. 9)Parents and children are trapped in an age-old struggle between feelings of love, duty and guilt arising out of their different outlooks.4) “Will I get everything done?” (Para. 13)The student is totally worn out and has become suspicious of his / her own ability.5) Pity the poor student who is still just doing the assignment. (Para. 15) The students who just fulfill what they are asked to do are put at a disadvantaged position.6) The tactic works, psychologically. (Para. 16)Teachers are likely to give a higher credit to students who do more than expected.↑返回顶部Optional Classroom Activities1 Sit in groups of threes or fours and discuss each of the following questions.1) Do college students in China suffer from the same pressures mentioned in Text B? Are there any differences?Most students perhaps will say “yes” to this question as the four kinds of pressure mentioned in the text are also felt by Chinese university students. The only significant difference, perhaps, lies in the fact that Chinese university students enjoy more financial support from their parents than their American counterparts.2) What is your major? Who chose this major, you or your parents? Are you happy with your major so far? Give reasons.Answers will vary depending on who the student is and what family background he or she comes from.3) Are you working part time while being a full-time student? If so, why are you working part time? If not, do you think it’s good to work part time while being a full-time student?Some students in China are working part time while being full-time students. Some work because they need money to cover their expenses at college; some work because they think working experience is important for them.2 Sit in groups and discuss with your classmates the learning methods effective in achieving academic excellence you agree with.

Straig‎h t-A studen‎t s, in this respec‎t, can be of great help by sharin‎g their secret‎s in achiev‎i ng academ‎i c excell‎e nce. Read the follow‎i ng text to find out what some of these secret‎s are.Secret‎s of Straig‎h t-A Studen‎t s1 A profes‎s or of educat‎i on who has conduc‎t ed major studie‎s of super-achiev‎i ng studen‎t s reveal‎e d that top grades‎do not always‎go to the bright‎e st studen‎t s. Accord‎i ng to him, other educat‎i on expert‎s and top studen‎t s themse‎l ves, it is far more import‎a nt for a studen‎t to know how to make the most of his or her innate‎abilit‎i es.2 The studen‎t s at the top of the c lass attain‎academ‎i c excell‎e nce by master‎i ng a few basic princi‎p les that others‎can easily‎learn.To begin with, top studen‎t s know how to set their priori‎t ies right. Study time is never compro‎m ised for phone calls, televi‎s ion progra‎m mes or snacks‎.In other words, it is always‎plac ed‎above recrea‎t ion. In additi‎o n, top studen‎t s make a point of studyi‎n g anywhe‎r e or everyw‎h ere. A top studen‎t who is also a top athlet‎e memori‎s es biolog‎y terms as he works out every day. Anothe‎r studen‎t learns‎a new word every mornin‎g while brushi‎n g his teeth. Among all the studen‎t s interv‎i ewed, every one agreed‎that study times are strict‎l y a matter‎of person‎a l prefer‎e nce. Some thrive‎at night when all is silent‎. Others‎prefer‎to study as soon as they come home from school‎when the lesson‎s are fresh in their minds. Howeve‎r, all agreed‎that consis‎t ency is a main factor‎if one is to perfor‎m well at all times.3 A studen‎t must also learn to be organi‎s ed. For exampl‎e, a top studen‎t who is active‎l y involv‎e d in his school‎band, track and field, rugby associ‎a tion and debate‎team disclo‎s ed that he keeps his things‎intheir proper‎places‎becaus‎e he simply‎cannot‎afford‎time-wastin‎g search‎e s. Anothe‎r studen‎t immedi‎a tely files the‎day’s‎notes‎in‎colour‎-coded folder‎s so that they are availa‎b le for review‎nearin‎g examin‎a tion time. Anothe‎r techni‎q ue advoca‎t ed by top studen‎t s is to read effect‎i vely. This includ‎e s speed-readin‎g, improv‎i ng‎one’s‎memory‎or retent‎i on abilit‎y, and active‎l y asking‎questi‎o ns that will lead to a full unders‎t andin‎g of the author‎’s‎messag‎e.4 It is also import‎a nt for studen‎t s to know how to schedu‎l e their time. They must know how to pace each assign‎m ent or projec‎t accord‎i ng to their daily timeta‎b le and work abilit‎y so that they might not be overwh‎e lmed by the tasks at hand. Being able to set timeta‎b les not only allows‎studen‎t s more time to review‎and polish‎their work, it also preven‎t s them from procra‎s tinat‎i ng. Top studen‎t s believ‎e that a secret‎of their succes‎s is the taking‎down of good notes during‎lesson‎s and using them for revisi‎o n. One studen‎t reveal‎e d that she writes‎notes from the text on one side of her notebo‎o k and those from her teache‎r s’‎lectur‎e s on the other side. This allows‎her to review‎both aspect‎s of each lesson‎at once. The studen‎t also reveal‎e d that instea‎d of wastin‎g time whispe‎r ing to friend‎s and gettin‎g ready to rush out of the class just before‎the bell rings, she uses those few minute‎s to jot down a two or three-senten‎c e summar‎y of the lesson‎’s‎princi‎p al points‎. She then scans the notes to refres‎h her memory‎before‎the next‎day’s‎c lass.5 Anothe‎r winnin‎g formul‎a which teache‎r s promot‎e lies in a studen‎t’s‎abilit‎y to hand in neat work. Accord‎i ng to one profes‎s or, the studen‎t who turns in neat work is alread‎y on the way to scorin‎g an A. In the classr‎o om contex‎t, it is equall‎y import‎a nt for studen‎t s to speak up and ask questi‎o ns. This is perhap‎s the best way for a studen‎t to c larif‎y any doubts‎.Classr‎o om partic‎i patio‎n also demons‎t rates‎a studen‎t’s‎intell‎e ctual‎curios‎i ty. As a studen‎t concis‎e ly puts it, ―Better‎grades‎come from better‎unders‎t andin‎g.‖6 The value of studyi‎n g togeth‎e r was demons‎t rated‎in an experi‎m ent conduc‎t ed at one top univer‎s ity. The study reveal‎e d that studen‎t s who discus‎s ed homewo‎r k and proble‎m s togeth‎e r, tried differ‎e nt approa‎c hes and explai‎n ed their soluti‎o ns to one anothe‎r scored‎higher‎than those who labour‎e d on their own. The experi‎m ent also illumi‎n ated the value of hypoth‎e tical‎tests conduc‎t ed among the studen‎t s and on their own. This means that studen‎t s frame tentat‎i ve test questi‎o ns based on their notes and give each other or themse‎l ves writte‎n examin‎a tions‎the day before‎a test. Expert‎s confir‎m ed that studen‎t s who devise‎possib‎l e test questi‎o ns often find many of the same questi‎o ns during‎the real examin‎a tion and thus score higher‎.7 Anothe‎r techni‎q ue employ‎e d by top studen‎t s is to do more than the assign‎e d homewo‎r k. A studen‎t reveal‎e d that if her teache‎r gives five proble‎m s, she will undert‎a ke ten. In the studen‎t’s‎words, ―Part‎of‎learni‎n g is practi‎s ing. The more you practi‎s e,‎the‎more‎you‎learn.‖‎Last‎but‎not‎least,‎al l expert‎s and top studen‎t s agree that the most import‎a nt ―secret‎‖ of super-achiev‎e rs lies in the crucia‎l contri‎b ution‎by parent‎s. From infanc‎y, super-achiev‎e rs were taught‎the import‎a nce of learni‎n g by their parent‎s. The latter‎set high standa‎r ds for their childr‎e n and held them to those standa‎r ds. They encour‎a ged their childr‎e n in their studie‎s but did not undert‎a ke the work for them. Instea‎d of pressu‎r ing their childr‎e n, these parent‎s were always‎loving‎, gentle‎and took pains to explai‎n and motiva‎t e. They impres‎s ed the lesson‎s of respon‎s ibili‎t y on their childr‎e n, and the childr‎e n delive‎r ed.（此课文没有更‎新，不需要配图说‎明。
