Activity 1, 339–345

Here is a sample summary of the article ―Power Learning‖:

―Power Learning‖ describes three proven techniques for improving study skills: time control, classroom note-taking, and textbook study.Time control is a matter of carefully scheduling your activities.The first step is to circle important dates on a large calendar.Record your study plan for one week or one day on the same calendar.This study plan should include set times for eating, going to classes, working, commuting, studying, and relaxing.Perhaps the best way to control your time is to make a list of the things you have to do.Mark the most important items on the list so that you will remember to do them first.Cross jobs off your list as you do them, and reschedule any uncompleted tasks.Class notes can also be improved if you follow a regular procedure.Attending classes regularly helps, as does developing a system of abbreviations to use in your notes.You should also record any information your instructor writes on the board or enumerates(presents in a numbered list).―Emphasis words‖ such as ―important‖ or ―chief‖ can also help you decide what to take notes on, since they indicate the main ideas.Examples and information on how ideas are related to each other should also be included.Filling in incomplete notes and reviewing

them soon after class help ensure that you have the complete record you need to understand and

remember what was said.Finally, following an organized sequence of steps will help you master difficult textbooks.After making sure you understand the title of a textbook chapter, try skimming the first and last

paragraphs to see if they introduce or summarize main ideas.Headings, subheadings, words in

boldface or italic print, and pictures or diagrams provide further clues to key points.Once you

have previewed the chapter, you should read it carefully, marking definitions and examples,enumerations, and emphasis words by highlighting, underlining, or adding symbols in the

margins.As you read the material a second time, take notes in simplified outline form.Study

these notes one section at a time by asking yourself questions and answering them without

looking back at your notes.Therefore, improved study skills are the result of taking control of your time,improving your in-class note-taking, and studying textbooks in an organized way.Activities 2 and 3, 346Activity(Summarizing a Book), 346

Work in the Countryside With more and more university graduates in our society, how to find a good job has increasingly become a common concern of the public.It is reported that many university graduates would like to work in the countryside.There are a number of reasons for this phenomenon.To start with, it is a fact that with more and more university students graduating each year, the job market competition becomes more and more fierce, and many graduates cannot find jobs in the cities.Secondly, most villages that are trying to employ university graduates have developed well.It makes mot much difference whether to work in the countryside or in the city.Last but not least, some university graduates who come from the
