Have you ever got stuck with unwanted courses or a class schedule that cannot be changed? If so, that’s because you don’t know how to select the perfect schedule.But by following a few simple steps, you can begin any term with the right courses at the most convenient times.
First, you must find the right courses.These are the ones that have the least amount of work, the fewest tests and the kindest professors.Ask your friends about courses in which they received A’s after attending only 70 percent of the classes.Ask around, too, to see which instructors have given the same tests for the last fifteen years.Photocopies of these tests are usually cheap and can be easily found in school.Then, pick up a copy of the master schedule and study it carefully.Find the course titles that mean an easy pass for a painless subject.Look for titles like “Arts and Crafts for Beginners,” and “Rock Music of the 1950s.”
Next, when you have got lists of easy instructors and subjects you can begin to select your time periods.If you stay up late in order to watch old movies, you may want a daily schedule that begins no sooner than noon.You should schedule only afternoon courses, too, if you’re one of those people who hate to leave a warm bed in the morning.On the other hand, if you are a person who gets out of bed at dawn, you may want to get your classes as early as possible.That way you have the rest of the day free.Morning classes are also necessary if you are a soap opera(肥皂剧)fan.
Finally, you want your schedule to pass through registration successfully.The main way to do this is to register(注册)early.If a course does happen to be closed because you simply couldn’t register at 7:00 a.m., you may still be able to get in.Talk to the professor and tell him or her that a serious and hardworking student like yourself would be a shining example to other students.Be sure to carry a list of backup courses to registration, though, just in case one of your chosen classes changes professors or time periods.By following these suggestions, any student can pick the perfect class schedule.College can thus become an almost pleasant activity.
Which of the following statements is true?
A.You can get copies of tests if you are willing to pay the price.
B.“Rock Music of the 1950s” may be an easy course.
C.It is difficult to pick the perfect class schedule.

You should .
A.register for classes in the morning if you get up early
B.have classes late in the morning if you stay up late
C.sign up for afternoon classes if you want to see soap operas
D.choose classes in the evening if you want to watch old films
If a course happens to be closed, you should .
A.register at 7:00 a.m. B.sit in on the class anyway
C.register for a backup course D.get help from the professor
Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A.Course Registration Made Easy B.How to Find the Right Courses
C.Classes and After-class Activities D.How to Pick the Perfect Schedule

A controversial new study has claimed that men really are more intelligent than women.The study concluded that men’s IQs are almost four points higher than women’s.
British-born researcher John Philippe Ruston says the finding could explain why so few women make it to the top in the workplace.
He claims the “glass ceiling” phenomenon is probably due to inferior intelligence,rather than lack of opportunity.
The University of Western Ontario psychologist reached his conclusion after scrutinizing the results of university ability tests taken by 1 00,000 students aged 17 and 18 of both sexes.
A focus on the factors such as the ability to quickly grasp a complex concept,verbal reasoning skills and creativity― some of the key factors of intelligence ―showed the male teenagers had IQs that were an average of 3.63 points higher. The average person has an IQ around 100.The findings,which held true for all classes and levels of education, overturn 100 year opinion that men and women average the same in general mental ability. They also conflict with evidence that girls do better in school exams than boys.
But Professor Ruston argues that the faster maturing of girls leads to them outshining boy in the classroom.

It was in the Victorian Era (维多利亚时期) that the novel became the leading form of literature in English. Most writers were more concerned to meet the tastes of the middle class. The best known works of the period included the works of Charles Dickens and the Bronté sisters and others.
Charles Dickens came on the literary scene in the 1830s. Dickens wrote vividly about London life and the struggles of the poor. Most of his works were written in a very humorous style, which was popular with readers of all classes.
The Bronté sisters were English writers of the 1840s and 1850s. They began to write from early childhood. In 1846 they published the first book at their own expense as poets; however, their book attracted little attention, selling only two copies. Then the sisters turned to writing novels, each producing a novel in the following year.
An interest in rural(田园的) matters and the changing social and economic situation of the countryside may be seen in the novels of Thomas Hardy and a number of others.
Literature for children developed as a single style. Some works became well-known, such as those of Lewis Carroll and Edward Lear. Adventure novels were written for adults but are now generally grouped in the list for children. Helen Beatrix Potter was an English author at the end of the Victorian Era, best known for her children’s books, which featured (以……为特色) animal characters.
