realize
It doesn‘t come as a surprise to you to realize that it makes no difference what you read or study if you can‘t remember it. You just waste your valuable time. Maybe you have already discovered some clever ways to keep yourself from forgetting.
One dependable aid that does help you remember what you study is to have a specific purpose or reason for reading. You remember better what you read when you know why you‘re reading.
Why does a clerk in a store go away and leave you when your reply to her offer to help is ―No, thank you. I‘m just looking‖ ? Both you and she know that if you aren‘t sure what you want, you are not likely to find it. But suppose you say instead, ―Yes, thank you. I want a pair of sun
耶魯外語學(xué)校教學(xué)部
glasses.‖ She says,‖ Right this way, please.‖ And you and she are off-both eager to look for exactly what you want.
It‘s quite the same with your studying. If you choose a book at random(隨意), ―just look‖ for nothing in particular, you are likely to get just that-nothing. But if you do know what you want, and if you have the right book, you are almost sure to get it. Your reasons will vary; they will include reading or studying ―to find out more about‖, ―to understand the reason for‖, ―to find out how‖ .A good student has a clear purpose or reason for what he is doing.
This is the way it works. Before you start to study, you say to yourself some thing like this: ―I want to know why Stephen Vincent Benet happened to write about America. I‘m reading this article to find out.‖ Or, ―I am going to go over this story to see what life was like in medieval (中世紀(jì)的)England.‖ Because you know what you are reading or studying, you relate the information to your purpose and remember it better.
Reading is not one single activity. At least two important processes go on at the same time. As you read, you take in ideas rapidly and accurately. But at the same time you express your own ideas to yourself as you react to what you read. You have a kind of mental conversation with the author. If you express your ideas orally, they may sound like this:‖ Yes, I agree. That‘s my opinion too.‖ or ―Ummmm, I thought that record was broken much earlier. I‘d better check those dates,‖ or ―But there are some other facts to be considered!‖ You don‘t just sit there taking in ideas-you do something else, and that something else is very important.
This extra process of thinking about what you read includes judging it, relating it to what you already know, and using it for your own purposes. In other words, a good reader is a critical reader. One part of critical reading, as you have discovered, is to distinguish(辨認(rèn))between facts and opinions. Facts can be checked by evidence(證據(jù)). Opinions are one‘s own personal reactions. Another part of critical reading is judging source(出處). Still another part is drawing accurate conclusions.

letter
Are you thinking of writing someone a letter? Call instead. It isn‘t that expensive, especially when you call during the evening, night, or weekend hours. In fact, you can make a ten-minute call anywhere in the continental United States for just $2.60.
For even greater saving, always dial direct, that is, without an operator‘s help. Rates(資;費(fèi)) on direct calls are lower after five o‘clock in the evening and lowest after eleven o‘clock at night. Collect, person-to-person, and pay phone calls require the services of an operator, and they cost more than direct calls.
Need to call out of the country? Now calls to many overseas places may be dialed direct. Check your telephone direction for overseas area codes.
Next time you have good news, or you just want to stay in touch, remember, a phone call means so much more than a letter. This has been a message from Southern Bell Telephone Company.
1. According to this passage, when is a dial telephone call cheapest?
A. During weekend hours. B. After 5 in the evening. C. During working hours. D. After 11 at night.
2. To make a ten-minute call costs $2.60, if you are in New York and want to be connected with a person in ______.
A. Alaska B. Los Angeles C. Hawaii D. Mexico city
3. What type of call requires less money? A.A direct dial call. B.A collect call. C. A person-to-person call. D.A call from a pay phone.
4. What should one do in order to make an overseas call?
