反身代名詞

Some things can be memorised or learnt off by heart, but rote learning is not sufficient for most subjects. It is also possible to use mnemonics. However, all things considered, the best idea is to bury yourself in your books and to study intensively until you know the subject inside out.

有些東西可以死記硬背，但對於大多數科目來說，死記硬背是不夠的。也可以使用記憶法。不過，考慮到所有因素，最好的辦法還是埋頭苦讀，直到對該科目瞭如指掌為止。

It's a good idea to start with a mind map when preparing an essay. Always write a first draft before writing up the final version. Your essay should be all your own work. Plagiarism is a very serious offence in colleges and universities. It is an increasing problem because it is so easy to cut and paste from materials available on the internet, and students have to sign a plagiarism form to say that the work they are handing in is all their own and that they acknowledge any sources they have used. There is usually a deadline.

在準備文章時，最好從思維導圖開始。在寫出最終版本之前，一定要先寫出初稿。您的論文應該是您自己的作品。抄襲在高校中是一種非常嚴重的違法行為。抄襲問題日益嚴重，因為從互聯網上剪切和粘貼材料非常容易，學生必須在抄襲表格上簽字，以表明他們提交的作品完全是自己的，並承認他們使用了任何資料來源。通常會有截止日期。

After the essay is submitted, it will be assessed and usually you can get feedback.

提交論文後，將對論文進行評估，通常您可以得到反饋。

Key aspects of higher academic study. University academics carry out research and are expected to read academic journals, which publish papers or articles on specialised subjects. If a library does not have a copy of a book or journal, you may be able to access it online, or you can usually get it through an inter-library loan. Open educational resources are particularly convenient for many students. Academic study can be very demanding and some students drop out, but the majority survive till finals and become well-qualified members of their future professions. Opportunity and equality. All education systems may ultimately be judged in terms of equality of opportunity. This is often referred to in the debates over selective versus comprehensive schooling. The main issue is whether everyone has the same opportunities for educational achievement, or whether elitism of one sort or another is inherent in the system. League tables for schools and colleges may actually help unintentionally to perpetuate inequalities, while claiming to promote the raising of standards. Inevitably league tables divide educational institutions into good and bad, success and failure, resulting in a two-tier system or at least that is how the public perceives it. The ability of better off parents and well-endowed schools to push children towards the institutions at the top of the league may, in the long term, have the effect of depressing opportunity for the less well-off or for children from home environments that do not provide the push and motivation to excel. Financial support of different kinds can help to make educational opportunity more equal. There are, for example, scholarships or bursaries that make it possible for less privileged youngsters to afford tertiary education. Student loans allow undergraduates to pay for their tuition fees and living expenses while they are studying. But few would claim that real equality of opportunity has been achieved.

高等學術研究的主要方面。大學學者從事研究工作，需要閱讀發表專業論文或文章的學術期刊。如果圖書館沒有某本書或期刊，你可以在網上查閱，或者通常可以通過館際互借獲得。開放式教育資源對許多學生來說特別方便。學業可能非常繁重，有些學生會輟學，但大多數學生都能堅持到期末考試，併成為未來職業中的合格成員。機會與平等。所有教育制度最終都可以從機會均等的角度來評判。在關於選擇性學校教育與綜合性學校教育的辯論中，人們經常提到這一點。主要的問題是，是否每個人都有獲得教育成就的同等機會，還是這種或那種精英主義是教育制度的固有特徵

Some people think we should return to an emphasis on the three R's, the traditional, basic skills. Literacy and numeracy are skills no one can afford to be without. Curriculum reform is often done for political reasons rather than for good educational ones.

有些人認為，我們應該重新強調三個 R，即傳統的基本技能。識字和算術是任何人都不能缺少的技能。課程改革往往是出於政治原因，而不是出於良好的教育原因。

Nowadays lifelong or continuing education is an issue and creating opportunities for mature students is important. Special needs education is expensive because class sizes need to be small or one-to-one. Children are unhappy at school if there is a lot of bullying. Some headteachers complain that getting to grips with constant new government guidelines on what schools should be doing is a distraction from what they ought to be focusing on. a. A job ad

如今，終身教育或繼續教育已成為一個問題，為成年學生創造機會非常重要。特殊教育費用昂貴，因為需要小班或一對一教學。如果學校經常發生欺凌事件，孩子們就會不開心。一些校長抱怨說，不斷掌握政府關於學校應該做什麼的新指南會分散他們的精力，使他們無法專注於應該做的事情。

Manager, I led a team of four people. When companies are recruiting, they often have a set of criteria, for example, three years of experience in the field, or a degree in a relevant area, which they use to find the most suitable candidates. If you are shortlisted for an interview, make sure you do your homework first. Find out as much as you can about the company, its products, markets, competitors, etc. If you can, ask a friend to do a trial run with you. This will help boost your confidence. The interview may be conducted by a panel, a group of people, probably including your future line manager. Don't forget to make eye contact with all the interviewers while you are talking. As you arrive for the interview, body language is important. Give a firm handshake and speak up. This will help to create a good first impression.
