Secrets of Top Students
A professor of education who has made some studies of top students said that top grades do not always go to the brightest students.
Top students master a few basic rules that others can also learn. Top students study anywhere or everywhere. A top student who is also a top athlete recites biology terms as he works out every day. Another student learns a new word every morming while brushing his teeth. Top students are also well organized. Top students immediately put the day's notes in different folder s(文件夹). According to one professor, the student who turns in neat work is already on the way to scoring an A. In the classroom, it is equally important for students to speak up and ask question. As a student puts it, "Better grades come from better understanding." Another technique is to do more than the homework. A student says that if her teacher gives five problems, she will undertake ten. In the student's words, "Part of learning is practising. The more you practise, the more you learn."
It showed that students who discussed homework and problems together, tried different approaches and explained their solutions to one another scored higher than those on their own.
Last but not least, all experts and top students agree that the most important "secret" lies in the contribution by parents. They set high standards for their children and hold them to those standards. They impress the lessons of responsibility on their children, and the children deliver.
A. They are taught the importance of learning by their parents.
B. In other words, study time is always placed above fun.

E. This is perhaps the best way for a student to clarify any doubts.
F. They encourage their children in their studies but do not do the work for them.
G. According to him, top students know how to make the most of their abilities.
