你也能成為頂級的學(xué)生
每個(gè)人都知道學(xué)習(xí)成績?nèi)珒?yōu)的學(xué)生，他們經(jīng)常出現(xiàn)在電視情景喜劇和如《鬼馬校園》這樣的電影里。是的，他們成績很優(yōu)秀，但同時(shí)也成了書呆子，整天腦袋都鉆在書本里。他們不擅長體育運(yùn)動，在與異性交往方面也是呆頭呆腦的。
那么，如何解釋多米尼加米倫德里斯呢？
洛曼是所在高中的校網(wǎng)球隊(duì)隊(duì)員，她還是合唱團(tuán)的成員，在學(xué)生會任職，還是數(shù)學(xué)協(xié)會的會員。兩年來，她每門課的平均成績保持在四分，也就是每門課得到的都是A。
米倫德里斯現(xiàn)在是大學(xué)一年級的學(xué)生，在中學(xué)時(shí)是學(xué)生會主席。他是大學(xué)足球隊(duì)和大學(xué)籃球二隊(duì)的隊(duì)員，參加過科學(xué)展覽會，被選為全國學(xué)生聯(lián)合會會員，在地方電視臺做過學(xué)生評論員。他是他們班致告別詞的學(xué)生代表，每門課的平均成績?yōu)樗狞c(diǎn)四分&&主課都是A，還有兩門大學(xué)預(yù)修課程得A后的加分。
像洛曼和米倫德里斯這樣的頂級學(xué)生是如何成功的呢？智力不是唯一的答案。“高分的學(xué)生并不都是最聰明的學(xué)生，”對頂級學(xué)生做過重要研究的教育專家這樣說，“知道如何充分利用你的內(nèi)在能力更為重要，并且這一點(diǎn)要重要的多。"
Lesson28 You Can Be a Super-Achiever
Everyone knows about straight-A students. We see them frequently in TV sitcoms and in movies like Revenge of the Nerds. They get high grades, all right, but only by becoming dull grinds, their noses always stuck in a book. They're klutzes at sports and dweebs when it comes to the opposite
sex.
How, then, do we account for Domenica Roman or Paul Melendres?
Roman is on the tennis team at senior high school. She also sings in the choral ensemble, serves on the student council and is a member of the mathematics society. For two years she has maintained a 4.0 grade-point average, meaning A's in every subject.
Melendres, now a freshman at university, was student - body president when he was at high school. He played varsity soccer and junior-varsity basketball, exhibited at the science fair, was chosen for the national association of student councils and did student commentaries on a local television station.
Valedictorian of his class, he achieved a GPA of 4.4 - straight A's in his regular classes, plus bonus points for A's in two college-level honours courses.
How do super-achievers like Roman and Melendres do it? Brains aren't the only answer. "Top grades don't always go to the brightest students," declares the experts of education who have conducted major studies of super-achieving students.
"Knowing how to make the most of your innate abilities counts for more. Infinitely more."
