时间的箴言

You may have been exposed to this idea before, but this time try to hear. There is a message that is trying to reach you, and it is important that it get through loud and clear. The message?

你以前或许有过这种想法，但现在不妨再听一听。有一条箴言要送给你，而且重要的是，这条箴言响亮而清楚地传送到你的耳际。什么箴言?

Time management! Time is elusive and tricky. It is the easiest thing in the world to waste -- the most difficult to control. When you look ahead, it may appear you have more than you need. Yet it has a way of slipping through your fingers like quicksand. You may suddenly find that there is no way to stretch the little time you have left to cover all your obligations. For example, as a beginning student looking ahead to a full term you may feel that you have an oversupply of time on your hands. But toward the end of the term you may panic because time is running out. The answer?

管理时间 时间既让人难于把握，又善于捉弄人。世界上最容易的是浪费时间，最困难的是把握时间。当你向前看，时间似乎多得超过了需要。不过，它会像流沙一样从手中悄然流逝。你可能突然发现，就是最高效率地利用剩下的时间，也不可能完成所有的任务。例如，一个刚开学的学生觉得自己手中的时间十分充裕，但将近期末才着了慌，因为时间将尽。怎么办?

Control! Time is dangerous. If you don't control it, it will control you. If you don't make it work for you, it will work against you. You must become the master of time, not the servant.

掌握时间 时间是危险的。你不去控制它，它就会控制你。如果你不让它为你工作，它就会跟你对着干。要做时间的主人，而不是奴隶。

Study hard and play hard is an old proverb, but it still makes sense. You have plentyof time for classes, study, work, and play if you use your time properly. It is not how much time you allocate for study that counts but how much you learn when you do study.

要学就努力学，要玩就痛痛快快地玩。这是一句古谚，但意义深远。如果使用时间合理，你就会有足够的时间学习、工作和玩耍。分配多少时间学习不是最重要的，关键是学到了多少东西。

Too much wasted time is bad medicine. The more time you waste, the easier it is to continue wasting time. Soon, doing nothing becomes a habit you can't break. It becomes a drug. When this happens, you lose your feeling of accomplishment and you fall by the wayside. A full schedule is a good schedule

严重浪费时间，就像吃了不能治病的药一样。越浪费时间，越容易继续浪费。很快，无所事事的习惯像毒品一样戒都戒不掉。一旦形成这个局面，你就会丧失成就感，事事半途而废。一个完整的计划才是好计划。

Some students refuse to hear the time message. They refuse to accept the fact that college life demands some degree of time control. There is no escape. So what's the next step? If you seriously wish to get the time message, this passage will give it to you. Remember ?it will not only improve your grades but also free you to enjoy college life more.

有些学生拒绝听时间的箴言，他们不想接受这个事实：大学生活需要某种程度的时间控制。否则那肯定是在劫难逃了。下一步怎么办?如果你真想得到时间箴言，本章会讲给你听。记住它不但能提高成绩，还能使你尽享大学生活。

Message 1. Time is valuable -- control it from the beginning. Time is today, not tomorrow or next week. Start your plan at the beginning of the term and readjust it with each new project. Thus you can spread your work time around a little.

第一条时间是珍贵的，一开始就要控制它 时间就是今天，不是明天也不是下一周，学期之初就开始你的计划，并按每个新的课程调整它，这样可以把工作时间延长一点。

Message 2. Get the notebook habit. Go and buy a pocket-size notebook. There are many varieties of these special notebooks. Select the one you like best. Use it to schedule your study time each day. You can also use it to note important dates, appointments, addresses, and telephone numbers. Keep it with you at all times.

第二条养成做笔记的习惯 去买一个袖珍笔记本，笔记本多种多样，挑选一个最喜欢的，用它来计划你每天的学习时间，也可用它来记录约会、会见地址和电话号码，随时带着它。

Message 3. Prepare a weekly study schedule. The main purpose of the notebook is to help you prepare a weekly study schedule. Once prepared, follow the same pattern every week with minor adjustments. Sunday is an excellent day to make up your schedule for the following week. Write in your class schedule first. Add your work hours, if any. Then write in the hours each day you feel youmust allocate for study. Keep it simple.

第三条准备好周学习计划 笔记本的主要作用是帮助你准备周学习计划。一旦制定好，以后每周就照此办理，只做小部分调整。星期天是制订下一周计划的理想时间。先把课程表写出来，如果有的话，写写你的工作时间。然后写上每天你认为分配给学习的时间，要简单明了
