校園生活：十條建議讓你的大學(xué)生活不后悔
Here are 10 tips to help you create a productive and memorable college experience.
下面是關(guān)于如何建立一個(gè)有成效的、值得回憶的大學(xué)生活的十條小建議。
1. Answer the question, "Why am I going to college?"
回答問題：“我為什么要上大學(xué)？”
Many college students really don't have a clear reason for being there other than the fact that they don't know what else to do yet. They inherit goals from family and peers which aren't truly their own. What are you there to learn? What do you want to experience?
很多大學(xué)生對(duì)于上大學(xué)都沒有明確的原因，除了一個(gè)事實(shí)——不知道還有其它的事可以做。他們的目標(biāo)不是出于內(nèi)心而是根植于家庭以及同伴。你在這里學(xué)什么？你想要經(jīng)歷體驗(yàn)什么？
2. Imagine your ideal college experience.
想象你的大學(xué)生活
Once you know why you're going to university, imagine your ideal outcome. Whether you've already started university or not, stop and simply write down some attributes of your ideal experience. Describe it in as much detail as you can. Real life will of course turn out differently than you visualize. The point of visualization is to give you more clarity for making decisions right now.
一旦明確了上大學(xué)的目的，就想象一下最完美的結(jié)局。無論你是否已經(jīng)開始了你的大學(xué)生活，停會(huì)兒，把你的一些完美暢想的`特點(diǎn)都簡(jiǎn)單地寫下來。盡可能地描述詳細(xì)。真實(shí)的生活當(dāng)然會(huì)不同于你的想象。但想象的關(guān)鍵在于可以幫助你現(xiàn)在更好地做決定。
3. Take at least one extra class each semester.
每學(xué)期至少要報(bào)一門選修課
The real benefit to a dense schedule isn't that you'll graduate sooner. The real benefit is that you'll enjoy a richer experience. This sort of thing sure looks great on a resume.
緊湊的學(xué)習(xí)計(jì)劃的真正好處不是你能很快畢業(yè)。真正的好處是你可以享受一個(gè)更豐富的經(jīng)歷。而且這也會(huì)給你的簡(jiǎn)歷錦上添花。
4. Set clear goals for each class.
每個(gè)課程都確立目標(biāo)
Decide what you want out of each specific class. Sometimes you'll achieve your goals; sometimes you won't. Even if you do your best, you may still fall short. You'll have to pick your battles. Some are worth fighting; others are best ignored.
考慮決定好你想從每個(gè)課程里得到什么。有時(shí)你會(huì)達(dá)到你的目標(biāo)，有時(shí)不會(huì)。盡管你盡力了，但你有可能仍然失敗。你要選擇你的戰(zhàn)場(chǎng)。有些值得戰(zhàn)斗，有些完全可以忽略。
5. Triage ruthlessly.
有所取舍
You don't need to put an equal amount of effort into every class. Inject extra effort when it's important to you, but feel free to back off a little from classes that are a low priority based on your specific goals.
你無須對(duì)每一個(gè)課程都付出同樣的努力。重要的課程可以多加把勁，但對(duì)于那些對(duì)你的目標(biāo)無足輕重的課程可以松懈一點(diǎn)。
6. Get an early start to each day.
一天之計(jì)在于晨
Getting an early start each day helped you get a lot more done, not just in the morning but throughout the day.
每天早起對(duì)你益處很多，不僅僅是早晨而是一整天。
7. Reclaim wasted time during your classes.
充分利用課堂時(shí)間
Not every class is going to require your utmost concentration. Sometimes teachers babble. Sometimes they reiterate what you already know. If a class is really challenging, sit in the front and soak up every word. But if a class isn't challenging you, then sit in the back, do homework for other classes, and pop your head up every once in a while to see if there's anything worth jotting down.
不是每一節(jié)課都需要你全神貫注。有時(shí)老師只是在東扯西拉，有時(shí)只是在重復(fù)你已經(jīng)知道的東西。如果這節(jié)課很有意思，那么坐在前面，仔細(xì)聽每一個(gè)字。如果很無聊，那么坐在后面完成其它學(xué)科的家庭作業(yè)吧。當(dāng)然，每隔一會(huì)要抬頭聽聽是不是有什么值得記下來。
8. Learn material the very first time it's presented.
拒絕重復(fù)學(xué)習(xí)
One of the biggest time wasters in school is having to relearn something you didn't learn properly the first time. When students say they're studying, most of the time they're making up for a previous failure to learn the material.
學(xué)校里最大的一個(gè)時(shí)間浪費(fèi)就是不斷重新學(xué)習(xí)你在第一次沒有完全掌握的東西。學(xué)生們說他們?cè)趯W(xué)習(xí)時(shí)大部分的時(shí)間都是在重復(fù)以前的錯(cuò)誤。
9. Master advanced memory techniques.
科學(xué)記憶
One of the keys to learning material the first time is to train yourself in advanced memory techniques. I don't recommend memorizing by repetition because it's way too slow.
學(xué)習(xí)的關(guān)鍵之一就是掌握科學(xué)的記憶方法。不推薦重復(fù)記憶，因?yàn)樘珱]有效率了。
10. Have some serious fun!
Challenge yourself academically, but give yourself plenty of time for fun as well. Don't squander your leisure time hanging around doing nothing.
學(xué)業(yè)上要努力，但也要給自己充足的娛樂時(shí)間。別在業(yè)余時(shí)間無所事事。
