At the end of that school year, we, too, were changing into social creatures and the stories and poems stopped.When I lived f
22、or a time in London, I had a friend. He was in despair and I was in despair.

29、ffer our sons and daughters our best advice to help them make the right choices in college. Hopefully, theywill have fewer regrets than we do. Following are five guidelines parents can share with their college-bound kids to put the whole experience in perspective. EDUCATION IS YOUR FIRST PRIORITYAs
30、soon as you arrive on campus, there will be competing interests. Feel free to check them out but always remember that you are there first and foremost for your education. Go to class prepared and on time. Be engaged during class. Make sure your professor knows you and realizes that you care.BE RESPO
31、NSIBLEThere are many layers of responsibility. Do what you say you will do and, if you cant, own up to it early and communicate clearly. But being responsible isnt just about meeting your commitments; it is also about taking care of you, your body, and your friends. For example, more than 1800 colle
32、ge students die annually from alcohol-related injuries. Look out for yourself and other people. Make moderate, sensible decisions so you arent reeling from the consequences later.TAKE THE OPPORTUNITYIncredible opportunities will present themselves: studying abroad, interning at a unique place, tryin
33、g new things. Dont let fear prevent you from taking advantage of them. There may never be so much time or as many resources devoted to your betterment again in your life. Say yes to opportunities that will help you grow.FIND AND BE A MENTORSome of the best lessons available to us can come outside of
34、 the classroom in the form of a mentor. One of the most powerful growth opportunities is being a mentor. Early on, find someone on campus who you feel can help you grow and develop a relationship with him or her. Also find someone for you to mentor. You will reinforce and enrich your own learning ex
35、perience by teaching someone else.GET THE JOB DONEIt is natural to occasionally feel you want to quit, when it makes more sense to you to go find a full-time job. Resist that urge. As Jocelyn Negron-Rios, a mother of two, who is currently completing her degree, advises, “No matter how difficult it s
36、eems, keep at it because however insurmountable it feels now multiply that by 10,000 and that is how it feels when you are in your thirties with a full-time job and a family and are trying to pursue a degree.”70. According to the passage, the most important thing for college students is _.A. taking
37、part in different activitiesB. working hard to get a degreeC. seizing every chance to try new thingsD. improving themselves by learning from the others71. Which of the following about college life is true?A. Passing on what youve learned in college can help you enrich your learning experience.B. Make sure that you are responsible for yourself rather than others.C. Professors will not assess your performances in class but the grades you get in exams.D. You can make full use of the opportunity whenever you want.
