本文针对新生开学前一周的活动给出一些建议,帮助新生轻松开始学校生活。
(2021·6月天津阅读精编)When starting college, most students enjoy a week's stay on campus before classes actually begin.What should you do with that time? Below are several tips to ease(使熟悉) yourself into college life.
Participating in1 Campus Welcome Activities
Most universities host welcome events before the academic(学业的) year officially begins, including freshmen orientations(迎新会) and entertainments like concerts.❶Participating in such events is a great way to learn about school facilities2 and understand campus culture.
Exploring Campus
Getting to know where major campus resources are—such as the student advising center3, psychological services center, experiment building and lecture hall—will make your first few weeks on campus a lot easier, because you won't have to look for them while still getting used to your classes.Take some time to check out the buildings ①where your classes will be held.This will prevent you from4 getting lost in the first few days of classes.
Starting a Routine5
Before getting too excited about all of the fun things you will be able to do during the week, remember that you do have a pretty big schedule change coming up.❷It's a great idea to start getting used to that routine right this week.
What helps you most is to schedule your sleep.Following the planned time will ensure you have enough sleep to get to those early classes and stay wide awake.
②If you have other daily routines, such as exercising or talking on the phone with family, work those into your daytoday life before classes start so that you get a better idea of how they fit in with6 your schedule.
