Part Three Intensive Reading
A. Leadin questions
1. In your opinion, what does college life like? 2. Do you like your college life? Why?3. What do you think the purposes of college life are? College Life
If life were a colorful drawing, college life would be one of the brightest colors. If life were a meaningful poem, college life would be one of the most
beautiful words. College life is an especially important period of time. If you make good use of your golden time in college, you will learn a lot of things not only in the textbooks, but also outside the textbooks; not only in theory, but also in practice.
When you become a college student, it means you begin to lead another new life, and learn to support yourself. You need to be used to the new surroundings. You must try everything by yourself. You must learn to stand on your feet with no walking stick.
College is just like a small society. Living under the same sun, we need to be sociable. So it is necessary for us to communicate with others. Social communication is not easier to learn than other skills. If you can keep smiling, others will also be more ready to help you. Speaking also plays an important role in communication."Handle them carefully, for words have more power than atom bombs." said one wise man.
As a small society, college is of course full of competition. As a college student, you will face hunting for your job very soon. College students try to exercise before entering the big society. The purpose is to test both their knowledge and ability.When you see them working hard to get good academic scores and taking part in all sorts of activities to sharpen their ability, how can you stand in the same place? Some students even find some parttime jobs to practice themselves and get more and more social experiences.
What can we do? We must get more and more knowledge and learn techniques to deal with the new situation. "Time and tide wait for no man!" We must treasure every minute of our college life. If you want to be successful in the near future, you should get involved not only in school subjects but also in outside class activities.
College life is regarded as the most memorable, funny and careless time of the life. It is time when students make new friends and spend the majority of their time on parties. In college, the

students gain the necessary skills and experiences. And if a person is too preoccupied with friends and own image of a cool guy/girl he gains no knowledge. And some people say that great guy/girl is not a profession. Thus, one should remember that college life must contain study and not only some fun. College is a mountain of treasures. If you pay attention to your college life, you will pick up a lot of precious stones named knowledge, goodsense, cooperative spirit and determination.

different. However, students who consider the following tips will certainly be better prepared for college life and will adjust quickly and easily.
Tip #1 Get Involved
There are many activities on campus, so go ahead and get involved! Don't wait, either. Go ahead and get involved your first week of your freshman year. This will allow you to meet friends, be part of a social group as well as making a difference in the university, and you will have a healthier attitude regarding college altogether. So, check out the different activities available at your university.
Tip #2 Stay on Campus
Many college freshmen are afraid to stay on campus because dorms are small and the food isn't like mom's home cooking. However, staying on campus is an important way to adjust to college life. You will have roommates, meet new friends, have an instant support group, and learn a lot about yourself as well as others. In addition, when you stay on campus you are close to all campus activities, parties, the library, and the extracurricular activities.
Tip #3 Eat and Sleep Regularly
Adjusting to college life can take a lot out of you because of the new class schedules, studying, and having to figure out how to handle it on your own. Because of this, it is very important to eat and sleep on a schedule. Make sure you eat three healthy meals a day, sleep at least eight hours a night, and you will feel happier and healthier and be able to adjust to college life.
Tip #4 Manage Stress
College is stressful, and for a beginning freshman, it might be overwhelming. However, manage your stress by working out, practicing yoga, deep breathing, or any other method you find helpful. When you are not stressed out, you will be able to adjust to college life and accept all of the new ways of doing things. However, if you stay stressed out, it will impact your grades as well as your health.
Tip #5 Stay Focused
Because college can be so much fun, it might be difficult to stay focused on your work. However, remember why you are at college in the first place. You want to get a degree and ultimately a good job. So, focus on your major and where you want to go in your life more than where the best party is this weekend. You can still look for extracurricular activities, but keep your mind focused on your work more.
Tip #6 Attend Every Class
Class attendance in college is not the same as high school, not by a long shot. Many times attendance is not even taken, so it is easy to skip class for more exciting things. However, if you don't go to class, you will find it difficult to learn what you need to for the exams and papers, and may miss pop quizzes. As a result, you should attend every class unless you are seriously ill. In

the event you must miss a class, let your professor know why and ask if you can get the notes.
Tip #7 Look on the Bright Side
You need to always keep a positive attitude when it comes to adjust to college life. It truly is difficult to always look on the bright side when your entire life has changed and you are not quite sure what to make of it. However, look at college as an adventure and each new day providing something new. This should help you keep your chin up.
Tip #8 – Party
College is known for partying and while you don't want to get bogged down in the party scene, you do want to party a little. You are following all of the above tips to help you to adjust to college, so you can party on the weekends after you have finished your homework and simply enjoy hanging out with friends and meeting new people.
Tip #9 Communicate
Remember, college is a time when you will meet many new people that may have completely different views than your own, and you may end up living with one. As a result, make sure you always communicate openly and honestly about your feelings while respecting other people as well. Don't let others take advantage of you by communicating openly.
When you follow these suggestions, you will certainly adapt to college life quickly, easily and without needing a lot of time to settle in. You will be off and running and should consider theses tips as your success guide for settling into college.
