章节摘录

　　they are fresh in your mind. A day later may be too late， because forgetting sets in veryquickly. Make sure that punctuation is clear， that all words are readable and correctly spelled，and that unfinished sentences are completed （ or at least marked off so that you can check yournotes with another students）. Add clarifying or connecting comments whenever necessary. Makesure important ideas are clearly marked. Improve the organization if necessary， so that you cansee at a glance main points and relationships among them.Read your textbook in an organized wayFor her first college exam， Laura was responsible for three chapters of her introductorysociology text. She began to read the chapters， using a purple highlighting pen. After ten pages，most of the pages were purple， and she realized that her method of highlighting was going to be oflittle help. She then read another ten pages without using the pen. At the end of those pages，too， she wondered just what she had accomplished. Then she decided that maybe she should takenotes as she read， but she didnt know how many notes to take. Discouraged， she started flippingthrough pages at random， reading a bit here or there. She felt frustrated and confused about justwhat she needed to do to read and study the book， and she began to wonder if she reallybelonged in college.
