《生活大爆炸》Amy:學校生活教會我的5件事大綱

After earning a Ph.D in neuroscience from UCLA, actress Mayim Bialik shares her learning strategies that also come in handy for life outside the classroom.
在加州大學洛杉磯分校得到了神經學的博士學位後， 演員馬伊姆-比亞利克（《生活大爆炸》Amy的扮演者）和大家分享了她的學習技巧，這些內容在課堂之外的生活中也能派上用場。

1. "Sit in the front row, raise your hand, and ask questions."
1.“坐在第一排，舉手問問題。”

A lot of people are intimidated and don't want to do it, but for me it was to the only way to get my questions answered and keep going. They called me a goody two-shoes, but who cares?
很多人都不好意思，不想這樣做。但對我來說，這是解答疑問並能繼續向前的唯一方式。他們都說我自命不凡，無所謂啦，反正我不在意。

2. "It's normal to want to drop out."
2.“想退學很正常。 ”

But once you've gotten that far, it's worth it to finish. There are people you can go to, ways to get around those feelings; you don't need to be in a dire situation to use Psychological Services.
但是一旦你已經開始學習，完成學業還是值得的。一旦你有那樣的想法，你可以去找人傾訴，或找一些方法來進行調整，沒有必要去使用心理服務。

3. "It's helpful to have at least one person who doesn't let you drop out."
3.“如果至少有一個人不想讓你退學,那麼對你來說會很有幫助。”

You often feel like your mom and dad, or your boyfriend, don't really get it. But it really helped me to speak to people in my department who finished, even though they too felt discouraged.
你經常覺得你的爸爸、媽媽或男朋友根本就不明白自己的處境。但是對我來說，和系裏高年級已經完成學位的人交流一下很有幫助，雖然有時候她們也覺得很氣餒。

4. "Never underestimate the importance of taking good, thorough notes."
4.“不要低估做好、做全筆記的重要性。”

I prefer organized, efficient, longhand note taking. I'm really grateful to my mom, who was a list-taker. I don't come from a fancy academic family, but my mom knows how to make a good list, and that really helped me. Don't be afraid to use too much paper.
我更喜歡有條理的、高效的、普通寫法的筆記。我非常感謝我的媽媽，她很喜歡列清單。我沒有出生在學術氛圍濃厚的家庭中，但是我媽媽知道怎樣才能列出一張好的清單，這對我真的很有幫助。不要怕浪費紙。

5. "It's okay to cry when you don't do well on a test."
5.“考試考得不好的話，哭一場也沒關係。”

Those emotions are there for a reason. You have to grieve your losses, but don't let them stop you from doing great things.
人們的情感存在都是有原因的。失敗時可以悲傷，但是不要讓悲傷阻止你去做偉大的事情。
