19、rature ClassGood morning everyone, our topic today is about how to do well in your literature class in your college days. College literature classes often shock people with little or no experience closely analyzing literature. First year students and those pre-med students just fulfilling their lone

20、 literature requirement generally find themselves uncertain of how to approach the assigned readings, class discussions, and papers. The seemingly intimidating classes may further terrify students if language skills are not their strong points. Literature courses and assignments tend to he extremely

21、 different from those of any other discipline because of their extreme subjectivity. This aspect is what many people tend to find most surprising and challenging in an academic setting.I am not saying that you can throw reason and fact out of the window in literature courses, hut you are given much

22、more intellectual freedom with your personal thoughts and ideas. And that is a feature that catches those accustomed to regimented rules and precise answers in experiments and problem sets slightly off guard. The most important pieces of advice I can offer those considering taking a literature cours

23、e is to be ready and willing to read everything questioningly, closely, and in advance.Beginning with the in advance piece of wisdom: literature professors HATE when their students have not done the assigned reading. They assigned it for a reason, so have it finished when you get to class. For large

24、 lectures students often think it is not that important to do the readings since they will not be forced to speak up and offer opinions. This is completely wrong. Why attend a lecture on a piece of writing that the professor assumes you have read? You will take nothing away from the lecture and will

25、 not be able to make any sense of whatever notes you take, even if you read the material after the fact. Also professors tend to be plot spoilers, so if you are taking a class in which you are reading novels, if you do not want to find out who dies or gets arrested or falls in love or any other poss

26、ible endings, I would highly recommend reading the book before class.In small classes that have lots of open discussion, professors can always tell who has and who has not done the weeks reading. Dont think it wont affect your participation grade for the course. Also if you are a particularly shy in

27、dividual who doesnt often speak up in class anyway, you will be even less likely to participate if you have no idea what the discussion is about. Come to class with your reading finished and you will certainly think of some way to contribute to the class dialogue. The entire point of a literature cl

28、ass is to engross a student in the general aspects of important books, to explore many subtle differences of how stories are crafted, and to train the college scholar to read and digest huge amounts of information. You wont do well in the course without making a sincere attempt to read and understan

29、d every assigned text.Next, make sure you read all material very closely. Do not skim through seemingly unimportant passages of long novels, or read Spark Notes and think you know what happens in the reading. These methods of reading leave you without any idea of the authors style or deeper intentio

30、ns; they merely give you plot or surface meanings. Reading things halfway will be of no benefit to you when it is time to write your papers.Literature professors usually want papers that are very sharply focused and detailed. Often they will assign topics that include one of the phrases pick one sen

31、tence from the novel , or choose a short passage, or discuss a single metaphor. These exercises in close reading force students to unpack every word within their chosen section of the text and discuss many different possible meanings and implications. This is where a literature students freedom in t

32、hinking is clearly exhibited. There is no single answer or interpretation to most pieces of literature, but students must be able to read closely enough to defend a case with textual evidence that will support their personal interpretation.Finally, do not feel defeated if you find a piece of evidenc

33、e in the text that seems to contradict the line of thinking you had developed about the piece of literature. Literature papers and discussions should question every theory by offering counterevidence. As I previously said, clear-cut answers do not exist in any form of literature, be it poetry, ficti

34、on, essays, or even nonfiction. You must read all genres with a discerning eye, and instead of avoiding possible conflicts in your papers, use them to show that you have fully thought through your arguments. Think of ways that they can fit in and support, or simply acknowledge that something seems u

35、nexplainable to your uncertainty is acceptable in literature courses; after all, you generally do not have access to the authors personal thoughts. Just be sure that even your uncertainty delves into possible interpretations of a work, sentence, or word.Literature discussions and papers do not need

36、to provide answers per say, but they MUST be thought provoking. So unpack single words, look up meanings and histories, analyze sentence structures for potential purposes, and never stop questioning your thoughts.And the last piece of advice I have to offer: look at the reading lists of literature c

37、ourses you are considering so you do not make yourself miserable by spending a semester reading literature you have no interest in. Literature courses should be enjoyable, and their readings stimulating, so find one that interests you and begin analyzing everything!Ok, today Ive given several tips t

40、ng to people（分数：5.00）A.B.C.D.解析：听力原文W: We brought in a person to help us understand what regrets are all about. Reverend Sherri Hausser is an associate pastor at the Bryn Mawr Presbyterian Church in Pennsylvania. Nice to have you here.M: Thank you.W: We talked about this, I guess in the meeting, tha

41、t everybody on the staff said we should do a segment about regrets. Why? Why is it something we need to talk about?M: Regrets are amongst the most human things we have: these amazing invitation and opportunity to grow. So if you dont have regrets, I mean I wouldnt want to deal with someone who didnt

42、 have regrets.W: But immediately you say regrets are positive, and most people dont think that way. Most people think that regrets are negative.M: I think they have a negative attitude on regrets because weve been taught that regrets are a bad thing, so we repress them and have a certain amount of s

43、hame about them. But I think they are absolutely an opportunity if we acknowledge them.W: Basically two kinds of regrets. Wouldnt that be fair to say most people have regrets about a personal relationship or about an opportunity and sometimes obviously those things that cross over? When is the amoun

44、t of time you spend worrying about something you think about normal? And when does it become something that negatively impacts your life?M: I think if it makes you stop functioning, then it becomes abnormal as long as the regret stays as an energy. Sometimes you have to sit with it a long time. You

45、sit with the regret and you try to understand. Its never about the past. Its a present emotion. And what it really isits a yearning about something in the future, its something popping up and saying wow, I could be more, I could do something different. Its really about focusing on the future, even t

46、hough it seems to be about the past.W: Sometimes its about the past; a woman in the pizzaria said I regret not listening to my mom and getting married too young. Clearly she set some problems in the past.M: Yeah, thats true. I think that the important thing about regret is not to repress it. I think it starts to bother us, and it inhibits us from acting if we dont acknowledge it. I think if we articulate it, look at what the regret is, then it frees us up in order to do something about it.W: So you say, Ok, Ive got a regret. A
