Comprehension Check

2.1 Focusing on the main ideas
I was admitted into a freshman program at Yale that required us to read up Western
classics, comprehe nd them, analyze them and turn in papers with original ideas on them.
Although this was my first year in an all-English environment, and sometimes I was tired of all the
hard work, I yearned to understand Western society. I made up for my lack of preparation with
diligenee. I pulled all- nighters, I lingered after class to ask questions, I learned note-taking in
English from my classmates, and I visited the writing tutor. As a result, as the year came to an
end, I received A_ for all my papers.
