Read the following text. Answer the questions on each text by choosing A, B,
C or D. You have been at Furnell University for two
weeks now. As usual, you need enough time to sleep and eat. You also want to
spend time with your new friends and get some exercise. But, after the first two
weeks of classes, you have probably concluded that there isn’t enough time to do
all these things, because you also have to attend classes, go to labs, do
assignments and write papers. Soon you will be in a situation
like this one:You are going to have a quiz in your ten o’clock class. You
studied for it until 2 a.m. You also have an eight o’clock class. Should you
sleep late and skip the eight o’clock class To some extent the
answer depends on the professor of the course. Some instructors announce that
they require attendance. In that case you really should go to class. Some don’t
say anything. In that case you have to decide. Once in a while it is better to
stay in bed and sleep than to get so tired that you cannot think. However, it is
not a good idea to skip class more than a few times. If you
have to skip a class, ask another student for the class notes, announcements and
the assignments. Also, come to the next class prepared. If you miss a class
because you are sick, tell the instructor afterward. He or she may let you make
up the work. If you have an important appointment, tell the instructor about it
before you miss the class. Here is another common problem. You
took the quiz. Even after studying very hard, you could not answer all the
questions. In high school you always got every answer right. What went wrong
Nothing. High school work is easy, so a good student is supposed to get a
perfect score. In college the teacher wants to challenge even the best students.
Therefore, almost nobody answers every question correctly. But
maybe there were some very basic ideas in that course you did not understand. Go
and see the teacher during his or her office hours. Most teachers will gladly
explain things again. Of course, they will not be pleased to repeat what they
said in class to someone who skipped the class. Maybe you
really should get up for that eight o’clock class! According to the article, a good student in college must ______.
A. go to every class, no matter how he/she feels
B. go to class unless there is a good reason not to
C. stay in the dormitory and study
D. make excuses to the teacher
