    ① How many times have you complained (抱怨)"There aren't enough hours in the day!"?

    ②Holly Gabrielle White, a vlogger who graduated (毕业)from University of Cambridge, probably disagrees. After she began school in August 2016, White started a channel on the video-sharing website YouTube. It records her daily life at school. Now she has more than 270,000 fans to her channel. In her videos, the 22-year-old gets up at 6:30 am and goes to bed at 10:30 pm every day. In between, she balances studying, cooking, house cleaning and exercising. Sometimes she finds time to meet up with friends and speak to her family online.

    ③A similar case happened to college students in China. Months ago, the official Tsinghua University microblog account showed pictures of students' plans, study notes and daily schedules. In one of thern^ an undergraduate (本科生)tightly plans his daily life. He usually goes to bed at 1:00 am and gets up at 6:00 am. Although he only takes 10 classes a week, the rest of his day will be fully booked. He starts his day by pre-reading his textbooks 6:40 am, and ends with a review of his studies. When he feels like it is hard to stick to his schedule, he writes encouragements to himself, like,"You're the best",and "Go for it".

    ④ Both students' hard work has certainly paid off. While was at the top of her 152 other classmates; and the Chinese undergraduate won a first-class scholarship four years in a row. The two have something in common. They have regular schedules and get up early to study. They squeeze as much into the schedule as they can. More importantly, they learn a way of managing time well and efficiently.

    ⑤ Some may wonder how they can avoid stress. White's video Time may provide an answer. She advises to write oor tasks in a set order on a to-do list. Indeed, things must be carefully planned before wc act,then "twice as much cae be accomplished with half the effort",as the old Chinese saying goes.
