又是一年高考時(shí)，即將告別高中走入大學(xué)的你是否會(huì)有些小期待？有人說，大學(xué)是個(gè)大熔爐，也有人說大學(xué)是所整容院，可見這四年對(duì)一個(gè)人的影響是很大的。那么大學(xué)校園生活究竟會(huì)給我們帶來哪些改變，又教會(huì)我們哪些技能呢？一起來看看吧！

1. Holding back unpleasant information

報(bào)喜不報(bào)憂

Yesterday you had a bad experience, but you didn't tell anyone about it. Your WeChat Moments only document the positive parts of your life. The same thing happens whenever you call home and speak to your parents, you wouldn't want them?to worry?about you after all!

昨天你過得很糟，但是你沒有對(duì)任何人提起過。你的微信朋友圈只記錄了生活中陽光的一面。你給家里打電話和父母聊天時(shí)，也是這么做的，你根本不希望他們擔(dān)心你。

2. Running faster than you thought possible

跑得比自己想象的快

There's nothing quite like being late for class to make you realize how fast you can run when you need to! We've all been there, rolling out of bed with 10 minutes to spare, getting dressed in five seconds flat, then sprinting across campus. More often than not you'll make it, if a little disheveled and out of breath. Next time you'd better try setting an extra alarm!

沒有什么比上課遲到更能讓你意識(shí)到，必要時(shí)你跑得有多快！我們都有過這樣的經(jīng)歷，在距離上課還有10分鐘時(shí)從床上爬起來，5秒鐘穿好衣服，然后在校園里飛奔。通常你都能及時(shí)趕到，就是有點(diǎn)邋遢和喘不過氣。下次你最好試著多設(shè)一個(gè)鬧鐘！

3. Cramming a full semester into one week

用一星期突擊一學(xué)期的內(nèi)容

It's final exam week and you have a whole bunch of tests to study for, not to mention the barrage of term papers that you need to write.

期末考試周到了，你要準(zhǔn)備一大堆考試，還有各種學(xué)期論文等著寫。

After several sleepless nights, you finally manage to get it all finished. Who knew you had it in you to write several 20-page papers and review several 1000-page books in the span of a few days?

經(jīng)歷了幾個(gè)不眠之夜后，你終于把一切都搞定了。鬼知道你怎么能在幾天時(shí)間里寫完若干篇20頁(yè)的論文，并且看完了若干本1000頁(yè)厚的書。

4. Making up excuses

找借口

You can't be bothered to go to class, but how can you skip and not get in trouble? There's only one thing for it, you'll have to come up with an excuse. You try your best to make it realistic and just hope the professor believes you.

你不想去上課，但怎么才能安全逃課呢？答案只有一個(gè)，你要編好借口。你用盡渾身解數(shù)讓這個(gè)借口看起來是真的，并祈禱教授相信你。

Other times, you squint at the board and pretend you've forgotten your glasses. The professor won't call on you if you can't read any of the questions!

其他時(shí)候，你瞇著眼睛假裝忘戴眼鏡。如果你看不清題目，教授是不會(huì)提問你的！

5. Overspending on things you don't need

在不需要的東西上亂花錢

It's your first time managing your own finances, so of course you're going to mess it up. Never mind if the object of your desire costs half your monthly allowance, you can just live on instant noodles for the rest of the month! Or if worst comes to worst, there's always your parents to fall back on.

上大學(xué)后第一次自己管錢，把持不住自己是正常的。不要緊，如果你想要的東西花費(fèi)了你每月一半的零用錢，那么你就可以在這個(gè)月剩下的時(shí)間里吃方便面了。萬一出現(xiàn)最壞的情況，你還可以求助父母。

說了這么多在大學(xué)里養(yǎng)成的壞習(xí)慣，再來看看積極的方面吧。

6. Mastering the art of saving space

學(xué)會(huì)節(jié)省空間

Your dormitory might only have a few square meters of floor space, but it has to house you and your roommates, as well as all your belongings. You'll soon learn to maximize its potential by installing shelving units and under-bed storage, as well as implementing other space-saving ideas. Either that, or you'll just keep everything in a pile — we're sure you'll get used to the mess eventually!

你的宿舍占地面積可能只有幾平方米，但是你要帶著行李，和室友一同住在里面。你很快就能學(xué)會(huì)通過安裝書架、床下儲(chǔ)物還有其他節(jié)省空間的點(diǎn)子來最大化利用宿舍空間。要么，你就會(huì)把所有東西堆在一起，相信你最終會(huì)習(xí)慣這混亂的。

7. Learning how to apply make-up

學(xué)會(huì)化妝

Going from high school to college is like undergoing a metamorphosis. Even the ugliest duckling can become a beautiful swan. Perhaps it's because you're older, and a little more mature. Or maybe it's just your newfound skills applying make-up.

從高中到大學(xué)就像經(jīng)歷了一次蛻變。即使丑小鴨也能變成美麗的天鵝。這可能是因?yàn)槟隳昙o(jì)更大更成熟了些，也可能只是因?yàn)槟阈聦W(xué)會(huì)的化妝技巧。

8. Working together in a group

團(tuán)隊(duì)合作

At high school it was easy to study alone and be single-minded in your pursuit of good grades in the college entrance examination. But after entering the college, you'll find group work is much more popular. Cooperation and communication are essential. Never be a black sheep!

高中時(shí)，我們都是自己一個(gè)人學(xué)習(xí)，一門心思想在高考中取得好成績(jī)。但是進(jìn)入大學(xué)后，你會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)團(tuán)隊(duì)合作更受歡迎。合作和溝通是必不可少的。不要做害群之馬！

9. Using social media to its full potential

充分利用社交媒體

You've lost something, or need some information, like a teacher's phone number or a recommendation for a nice restaurant. How better to find what you seek than using social media? Just post your question, add a hashtag and someone's sure to try and help.

你丟失了某樣?xùn)|西，或者需要一些信息，比如老師的電話號(hào)碼或推薦一家好餐館。借助社交媒體是滿足這些需求的最好辦法。你只需要帶上話題發(fā)布你的問題，就一定會(huì)有人試著提供幫助。

10. Learning to multitask

學(xué)會(huì)同時(shí)處理多項(xiàng)任務(wù)

The further you advance through college, the fuller your to-do list becomes. Studying, internships, preparing for postgraduate entrance exams — It all piles up and you have to learn to deal with it, whether you like it or not!

隨著年紀(jì)的增長(zhǎng)，你的執(zhí)行事項(xiàng)表會(huì)越來越滿。學(xué)習(xí)、實(shí)習(xí)、準(zhǔn)備考研，所有事情都趕在一起，而不管你喜不喜歡都需要學(xué)會(huì)處理。

After college, all of you must learn how to integrate into society. Without the shelter of our teachers and parents, you must handle all the challenges by yourselves, which makes college the perfect time to make mistakes and learn good habits. Use the time wisely, get to know yourself, and be the best version of you that you can be!

大學(xué)畢業(yè)后，所有人都必須學(xué)會(huì)如何融入社會(huì)。沒有老師和父母的庇護(hù)，你必須自己處理所有挑戰(zhàn)，因此，大學(xué)是允許犯錯(cuò)和培養(yǎng)好習(xí)慣的最佳時(shí)機(jī)。合理利用時(shí)間，認(rèn)清自己，盡全力做到最好吧！
