A student's life is never easy. 1. A lot of preparations are needed so you can be sure to go back home with a diploma and a bright future waiting for you. The following are some basic things you need to do before even seizing that passport and boarding on the plane.
Knowing the country.
You shouldn't bother researching the country's hottest tourist spots or historical places. You won't go there as a tourist, but as a student. It'll be helpful to read the most important points in their history and to read up on their culture. 2. You surely don't want to face legal problems, especially if you're away from home.
Studying their language.
Don't expect that you can graduate abroad without knowing even the basics of the language. Before leaving your home country , take online lessons to at least master some of their words and sentences. 3. Doing this will also prepare you in communicating with those who can't speak English.
4. Check the conversion (兑换) of your money to their local currency, set up your bank account so you can use it there, get an insurance, and find an apartment. The Internet or your intended school will be very helpful in finding an apartment and helping you understand local currency.
Remember, you're not only carrying your own reputation but your country's reputation as well. If you act foolishly, people there might think that all of your countrymen are foolish as well. 5.
A．Packing your clothes.
B．Preparing for other needs.
C．Most importantly, read about their laws.
D．This will be useful in living and studying there.
E．That would surely be a very bad start for your study abroad program.
F．Going with their trends will keep it from being too obvious that you're a foreigner.[来
G．And it is even more difficult if you will have to complete your study in a foreign land.

Out of sight, out of mind. An apple a day keeps the doctor away. Don’t put all your eggs in one basket. 1. . Each of the phrases mentioned above teaches a common truth. But what exactly is a proverb? It’s a short statement that contains a general truth. It is popularly known and often repeated.
Every culture has proverbs. 2. .For example, many cultures value old people for their wisdom and experience. This idea can be found in proverbs. A Chinese proverb says, “An old horse will never get lost.” And a Portuguese proverb states, “An old pan is the one that makes good food.” 3. . The English say, “Good and quickly seldom meet.” The Chinese say, “Think three times before you act.” A Russian proverb exclaims, “Take your thoughts to bed with you, for the morning is wiser.”
There is a saying: To truly know a people, learn their proverbs. Proverbs contain a culture’s values and morals. 4. . People in Saudi Arabia value books and learning. One of their proverbs says, “A book is a garden carried in the pocket.” The French say, “There is no pillow so soft as a clear conscience.” So that culture thinks that being honest is important. Egyptians know the value of friendship. One of their proverbs say, “Friendship doubles joy and halves grief.”
In Africa, many proverbs also use images familiar to Africans. For example, “The best way to eat an elephant in your path is to cut him up into little pieces.” 5. . Or “A roaring lion kills no game.” This means that one cannot achieve anything by sitting around and talking about it. One must get out and strive for it.
Learning proverbs in another language is fun. You can make a good impression with your language ability. But remember, proverbs are usually used in spoken language. They are rarely used in writing. If you use a lot of proverbs when you write, people will think you don’t have original thoughts.
A. What is your favorite proverb?
B. Have you heard any of these proverbs before?
C. Many cultures also agree that acting in a hurry is not a good idea.
D. And while some are special for one culture, there are common themes.
E. In other words, the best way to solve a problem is to work on it bit by bit.
F. Proverbs are short and easy to remember.
G. So you can learn what is valued in different cultures through their proverbs.

Recently, a scientist did some experiments．He left a group of 4-year-olds in a room with a bell and a candy．If they rang the bell, he would come back and they could eat the candy．If, however, they didn't ring the bell and waited for him to come back on his own, they could then have two candies.
In videos of the experiment, he can see the children kicking, hiding their eyes--trying to exercise self-control so they can wait and get two candies．The results are different．Some broke down and rang the bell within a minute．Others lasted 15 minutes.
The children who waited longer went on to get higher SAT scores．They got into better colleges and had better adult success．The children who rang the bell quickest were more likely to have received worse teacher and parental evaluations 10 years later and were more likely to have drug problems at age 32.
The experiments are worth noting because people spend a lot of time thinking about how to improve education, how to become rich．But when the result is not good, they will come back to ask "how do we get people to get the sort of self-control that leads to success?" This is to enter the world of human nature.
So these experiments along with everyday experience, tell us that self-control is most important．Young people who can sit through sometimes boring classes to get a degree can work hard in order to learn a language well．They can avoid drugs and alcohol．For people without self-control skills, however, school is a series of failed ordeals（煎熬）．No wonder they drop out and their later life is a group of foolish ideas, such as drug use, stealing and so on.
1.The scientist did some experiments to .
A. test children's self control and later success
B. test children's intelligence of ringing the bell
C. find good ways of training children to learn
D. prove that children's education is important
2.How long did the scientist's experiments last according to the text?
A. Just 15 minutes． B. Within 10 years.
C. Less than 14 years． D.More than 28 years.
3.What is the best title for this passage?
A. Ways of self-control training
B. Experiments on children's ringing the bell
C. Higher score, better achievements
D. Self-control is the key to success
