我们使用ubuntu需要经常地使用命令update upgrade来更新软件列表和升级系统，但ubuntu默认的更新源太慢了，我们可以通过更换国内的软件源来加快系统的更新。
1.ubuntu下的源列表为/etc/apt/sources.list，在更换前先备份一下以备不时之需：
sudo cp /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.backup
2.接着用gedit或vim打开源列表进行修改：
sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
比如我要使用清华大学的软件源，将源链接覆盖写入source.list：

3.保存list文件，进行更新
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade
还有其他更新源可供选择：
