As the term draws to a close, it's a perfect time for you to make a new term's resolutions. Maybe you are a common student. You probably think you will never be a top student. This is not important. If you are confident in yourself, you can become a better student. Here's how:

a. Study regularly. b. Plan your time carefully. c. Find a good place to study. d. Make good use of your time in class. e. Develop a good attitude(态度) towards tests.

 ①   When you plan your week, you should make a list of things that you have to do. After making this list, you should make a schedule of your time. First,plan your time for eating, sleeping, dressing, etc. Then decide on a good, regular time for studying. Don't forget to plan enough time for fun. A weekly schedule may not solve all your problems, but it will let you know what is happening to your time.

 ②   Look around the house for a good study place. Keep this place. It may be a desk or simply a corner of your room, free of everything but study materials (材料). No games, radios, or televisions! When you sit down to study, keep all your mind on the subject.

 ③   Listen to everything the teachers say carefully in class. Really listening in class means less work later. Taking notes will help you remember what the teacher says.

  ④   When you get home from school, go over your notes, preview(预习)the important points that your teacher is going to discuss the next day, and read that material. This will help you understand the next class. If you do these things regularly, the materials will become more meaningful, and you will remember them longer.
