College life can become a great struggle because students have to balance school, a social life, and sometimes a job as well. The following steps could help the grades of college students.

Go to class. Why did your parents pay for your tuition or why are your parents paying their taxes for financial aid? Even when you don't feel like attending class, just go. 1.  Many classes have in-class assignments, pop quizzes, and case studies that only could be taken in class. If you are not there, you might lose points.

  2.  . College is all about multitasking. Planners can really help you to balance homework, due dates and tests. You should try to get your work done early, then you will have less stress.

Be business-like about your education. If you had a job, you would have to go to your job at 9 a.m and stay there until 5 p.m.    3.  If you did the same thing in college, you would be great. Go to class, go to the library, study seriously, at 5 p.m put away the books and go home. Once in a while you might have to work late, just like at a real job.

 4.   .Everyone studies in different ways. Some can study with a lot of noise and others want silence. Some can't even study with music on and some need dead silence. Some like the library and some like to study with friends, or even outside.

  5.   . Some students start better than they finish. They do that in order to give themselves room to slack near the end of the semester, which can be a mistake. Push yourself to do your best on every assignment. Stay on top of your game and don't lose focus.

A． Stay organized.

B．Maintain 100% effort throughout the semester.

C．You might get participation points, and the professor will also get to know you better.

D． The rest of the day would be your own time.

E.  Use your time effectively and efficiently.

F.  Find your own best method of studying.

G.  Balance work, school and social life.

A. Pride and Prejudice (Jane Austen)

The classic love story explores the lives of the five Bennet sisters at the turn of the 19th century in rural England. At that time women were not allowed to get their father’s wealth after his death, so their mother is desperate to marry them off into wealthy families. Therefore various love stories start with the question — whether marriage is for love or for money.

Julien has a strong desire for power and glory, and for ridding himself of his low social status as the son of a tradesman. Thus, he tries every means to achieve his goal.

The two colors, red and black, symbolize his inner struggle between being sincere and false. And this conflict in his character finally brings about his downfall.

C. Jane Eyre (Charlotte Bronte)

There is great kindness and warmth in this love story. Poor and plain as Jane Eyre is, she has a strong will, sharp wisdom and great courage. She is forced to battle against a harsh employer and a rigid social order. Yet she is never defeated. Standing on her feet, she gains her own happiness in the end.

D. Oliver Twist (Charles Dickens)

It reflects people’s tragic life in Britain in the 18th century. In the story, Oliver Twist, a mild young boy, is born in the workhouse and stays there until he is made to leave. What waits for him next is the falseness of the wealthy and the depths to which poverty pushes the human spirit.

This is an all-time best-seller by Margaret Mitchell. The story takes place during the American Civil War. It records the tragic love stories of Katie Scarlet O’Hara, a southern beauty.

In this article I'd like to tell you how to behave better in an IELTS oral English test. Everyone will make necessary preparations for some possible topics in order to increase your performance in the interview.  1.  What would you do if you were asked in an interview to talk about how you feel about your hometown if in fact you really dislike living there?

Some people might think that being truthful in this situation and giving a negative answer, they would not do the right thing.  2.  They talk about how they love living there and give a positive answer which sounds more attractive.

 3.  And giving a negative opinion of something is not important, either.  4.  If you have more to say by being truthful, even if it is to express a negative opinion, then that is what you should talk about.

 5.  And follow it up with your reasons for disliking it instead of saying “I like my hometown…” and then struggle to find something to say.

We should consider how to deal with this situation in the best way

A. However, sometimes, you will be asked to talk about something that you don’t really like or don’t really want to talk about.

B. What is your true feeling about your hometown?

C. Instead, they try to hide their true feelings.

D The important thing is that you have something to express.

E. No one should have a negative feeling about their hometown.

F. It would be much better to say “Actually I don’t really like my hometown…”

G. Actually, truthfulness is not important in such an interview.
