如何提升自己的英语学习能力(2)
我的学习习惯不好。在测验或考试之前最后时刻临时抱佛脚，让我的大学生活鸭梨很大。需要作出一些改变了，因为我可能会没拿到学位就退学。无论你们是应届生还是复读生，我保证你们也都不想这样。
Fortunately, I stumbled onto a study skills strategy that saved me. This method virtually eliminates the need to cram for exams. I started using this strategy to completely change my study habits and it made a huge difference for me.
幸运地是，我连滚带爬地摸索到了一种学习技巧，这种学习策略救了我。这种方法让我不再需要考前临时抱佛脚。我逐渐用这种方法彻底改变了学习习惯，它让我焕然一新。
This study strategy is ideal especially for courses that involve final exams that cover all material that was introduced during a semester or entire year. Here is what this strategy involves.
对于那些在期末考试中要考查一学期或一学年内所有学习内容的课程，这种学习方法尤其有效。下面就是这种学习方法的要点。
For each of your courses, schedule a regular study session each week.
l 对于你学的每一门课程，在每一周中都规划一个特定的学习时间段。
Stick to this study session schedule faithfully like a job.
l 就像上班一样遵守这一学习日程安排。
During each study session, review everything that you have covered in your course so far from day one to present.
l 在每个学习时间段里，复习从这门课第一天到目前为止的所有内容。
Continue reviewing all content each week even if you don’t have an upcoming test or exam.
l 坚持在每一周都复习所有的内容，即使不是面临测验或考试。
Although there will be more material to cover each week for each course as you move along the semester, covering earlier material will become faster as you become more familiar with them each week. You might not have to increase that much time to each study session as the year goes by.
在一个学期中，尽管每周你要学的内容都比上一周更多一些，但越早学的材料你越熟悉，所以也会越快。所以在这一年里，你在每周每次花的时间并不会增加那么多。
The beauty of this study habits strategy is that by the time final exams roll around, you will be quite familiar with most of the course content because you have been reviewing it each week.
这种学习习惯建立策略的优点在于，当期末考试的滚滚车轮压到你面前的时候，你将会对课程中的大部分内容非常熟悉，因为你每周都在复习。
Using this strategy will allow you to go into your final exams with much more confidence than ever before. The only new material is the most recent since older content will be well absorbed into your head from all those weeks of regular study.
运用这种策略，你在迈入期末考试的考场时会信心十足。只有刚学过的那些内容才是新的材料，因为经过每周有规律地学习，旧的学习内容已经记得很牢了。
No more cramming for exams
考试不用再临时抱佛脚
This study strategy worked wonders for me as it took me from a ‘C’ average student to ‘B+/A-’ average by graduation. This not only allowed me to finish my degree successfully, it got me into MBA school where I needed to have even better study habits in place.
这种学习策略对我来说很有效，因为我的成绩从平均得“C”提升到了毕业时的“B+/A-”。它不仅让我成功地拿到了学位，还让我得以就读 MBA 商学院，在那里我有了更好的学习习惯。
So there it is – my top study skills strategy that basically involves weekly review of everything that you’ve covered in your courses to date. So no more cramming for exams needed!
没别的了——这就是我的超级学习策略，说白了就是每周复习迄今为止的所有学习内容。别再考前临时抱佛脚啦!
