Never Put off Until Tomorrow What You Can Do Today

Want to put off studying for the physics test? Or writing that thirty-five-page research paper on future uses of biotechnology? Sure you do? And who wouldn’t? But it’s still a silly idea to put off doing something until a future time. Here's why ...

61._________. The task will be still the same. It won’t be any more fun and you still won’t want to do it. As the deadline gets closer and closer, the task seems to become larger and larger if you haven’t started the work. And the stress increases. Now not only do you have to write that paper, you have to do it under great pressure.

62._________. Before you start, it seems that the task is unlikely to be accomplished. But you know what? You’re probably miscalculating. Get started — maybe on a small piece — and you'll discover that you have more resources and know more about the subject than you thought. Result? You won’t experience nearly as much suffering as you expected to. Things are guaranteed —  100 percent —  to get better.

         63._______. If you leave your work until the night before it’s due, you give up the possibility of getting input from your professor. Professors regularly give advice — or at least a few useful tips — during office hours. Unfortunately v though, they don’t usually hold office hours at midnight, so you'll be out of luck when you discover the night before the midterm that you have no idea how to do the questions that will count for two-thirds of your grade.

64.________. Ever wonder why the professor assigns the paper two weeks before it’s due? It’s because he or she expects you to be thinking about the issue, or doing the research, for two weeks. No, not every waking moment, but at least some of the time. After all, the professor could just as easily have given the assignment one week before it was due if he or she expected less thinking. Most college papers require you to have some kind of idea, then to spend some time thinking about it, revising it, and polishing it. When you throw together a paper or a report at the last minute, your ideas are half-baked. And your professor will know it.

65._________. If you put things off till the last minute 9 you might find that you haven’t budgeted enough minutes to finish the necessary tasks. It’s the easiest thing in the world to miscalculate how long it’ll take to do all the work especially when new issues arise — like illness, family problems, computer breakdowns, trouble at work, and all the other things — as you’re thinking through your paper argument or preparing yourself for the coming test. If you keep delaying, you don't allow yourself time for those various Life events that have an adverse (不利的)effect on your ability to complete your assignment.

I. Putting Ideas into Words (EL991-1A )

Here’s a challenge: what if writing could be more than just throwing words on a page?

In this course, you’ll learn not only about different writing styles, but also about writing as a means of figuring out a problem and communicating your thought process to the world.

This week-long workshop will explore the balance between self-expression and effective communication, offering a unique view into the world of academia (学术界).Comments will be given to students and you’ll make great progress in your writing if you take this course!

High School as a Social Laboratory:

An Introduction to Sociology (SO902-3B)

In this class, we’ll learn about broad sociological theories, but we’ll discuss those theories in relation to what sociologists have done before studying American high schools and youngsters.We’ll explore the issues such as gender, race, class, and violence in society at large, and the ways in which American high schools reflect those social issues.We’ll watch films and documentaries, such as “Mean Girls” and “Bowling for Columbine”, that make these connections, and you’ll write papers making these connections for yourself based on your own experiences.

C

D

II. Children’s Thinking (BI911-1B)

Individual memory abilities vary greatly.There are famous people with strong memories who can remember 5,000 playing cards in exact sequence, and others who cannot store any long-term memories, where each morning is a strange new world.And you may wonder how the brain manages to identify and sort memories into different types, then keep them from 5 seconds to a lifetime, waiting for a signal to recall them in great detail.

Students completing this exciting course will gain useful knowledge of how the brain learns, remembers and forgets.

V.    Persuasive Communication (TA905-1A)
