In-class Reading
I. General idea about the text.
Professor Neusner points out that the students in Brown are inadequately prepared for real life, because college has spoiled the students. In college, failure leaves no record while in real life failure marks you. In college, students can argue with professors about their errors while in real life they'd better learn from the errors instead of defending them. In college, students can just do very little things to meet the demand while in real life they'd better not act like this toward co-workers and bosses. So, try to learn some thing practical and useful and go out to life!
Ida Timothee makes a response to Neusner's piece, arguing against the viewpoint that failure leaves no record. The author believes that the students are experiencing and learning something useful in real world, and what they learn can benefit them in the future. In a word, college is not "easy, free, forgiving, attentive, comfortable, interesting, unchallenging fun at all.

In-class Reading
I. General idea about the text
According to Dr. Larry Dossey, a pioneer in chronobiology, one of the most common ills in our society is "time sickness". He became interested in time and health when he noticed that many patients in hospital were time addicts. Almost all living things in our world carry their own biological clocks synchronised with the rhythms of nature. Human's minds can change rhythms of time in various ways. Cultures differ in how they perceive time. Although each view has advantages and disadvantages, we can not neglect the negative influence of time pressure. Fortunately, Dr. Dossey has found some techniques to change and master our time: unlocking our lift, setting our inner sense of time, tapping our body's power to change time, and sychronising yourself.
