Sleep. Make certain that you get sufficient sleep (7 to 8 hours but not more) each night approaching and during finals.
睡眠。在临近期末考试的这段时期内要确保睡眠充足(7到8个小时,不在再多了)。
Exercise. Make time for exercise—not too much time, perhaps, because you should be studying most of the time—but some time to unwind is a good idea. The break in your study routine will help you rejuvenate and get back at it.
锻炼。留出一些时间来锻炼——也不需要太多的时间,也许是因为你要学习很长时间——但是偶尔放松一下也是个不错的主意。在学习过程中放松一下可以帮助你回复活力,继续投到学习中去。
Break up and spread out your studies. Don’t study for hours and hours for one course’s exam.
拆分学习时间,分散学习科目。不要连续学习好几个小时,也不要好几个小时只复习一个考试科目。
Study groups are fine—to a point.
小组学习效果更好—— 一定程度上是如此。
If you study with friends, make sure that there are definitive start and finish times. Otherwise, an open-ended study session can quickly devolve into wasted time and gossiping.
如果你跟朋友一起学习,保证有明确的开始时间和结束时间。否则,没有结束时间的学习过程很快会发展成浪费时间和八卦闲聊。嘿,我喜欢八卦闲聊——空出最后的一小时或两小时来闲聊。然后剩下的时间留给自己单独学习——或者是睡觉、锻炼或进餐。
Don’t go partying the night before a final exam. This is self-explanatory.
期末考试的前一天晚上不要去参加聚会。原因就不用解释了。
If you think you tanked on one of you exams, forget it.
如果你觉得某一门考试失败了,暂时忘记它。
