我认为，
选修第二专业并不适合每一位本科生
。
我大学本科主修英语专业，
大一时就开始辅
< br>修经济学了。无疑，我是班里最用功的学生。我竭尽全力想同时达到两个不同专业的要求，
但还是有不及格的时候。因为经济学需要良好的数学基础，我不得不花大量时间钻研数学，
因而忽略了英语学习。

you
ask me, taking a second major
isn’t
good for every undergraduate. In my freshman year
as
an
English
major,
I
took
economics
as
my
minor.
By
all
odds,
I
was
the
most
hard-
working
student in my class. But try as
I might to meet the requirements of the two
different subjects, I still
coul
dn’t do well enough to
pass all the exams. Given that the study of
economics required a good
command of
mathematics, I had to spend so much time on math
that I neglected my English.

第二学期，
《英国文学》及《宏观经济学》两门课不及格给我敲响了警钟，这可是我一生中
第一次考
试不及格，
这大大打击了我的自信心。
虽然我不是一个容易向命
运低头的人，
在暑
假结束的时候，
我还
是决定放弃经济学，
以免两个专业都难以完成。
当我只需修一个
专业的
时候，一切似乎又回到了正规。

Failing English Literature and
Macroeconomics in the second term sounded the
alarm for me. This
was
the
first
time
I
did
not
pass
a
course
in
my
life,
which
had
greatly
sapped
my
confidence.
Although I was
not a man who would easily bow to fate, as the
summer break came to a close, I
decided
to give up economics for fear that I
would fail both subjects. Now that I
had only one
subject to
attend to, everything seemed to be on the right
track again.

张磊是在

他的

而他却是读了一些教科书，
其中连

一个人的穿着似乎能影响他的生活方式。
譬如

在校内要穿校服是中小学生所必须严格遵守

校服便不可能如

What you wear seems to dictate your
behavior. Take primary school and high school
students for
