The author himself would like to go right back to being a freshman and study philosophy, calculus, literature, history and grammar. He does recognize that if he were studying for the knowledge and not for earning grades, education would probably become less stressful and more fun.Step 4 AssignmentsReview the words and phrases in Passage BSection III Write and Produce (2 periods)Step 1 Revision (10 mins)Dictation of words and phrases in Passage A and BStep 2 Grammar (35 mins)分句译法(Splitting)总体说来，汉语多用―短句‖，而英语则多用―长句‖。
