Help, Learning about Sales and Trading

 I am an incoming ST intern at FICC/EQUITIES and i have bare minimum knowledge about sales and trading (originally went for IB that's why imnt very knowledgeable about Sales and trading ). Therefore I wanted to learn more about what sales and trading is and the different asset classes. What would be the best way to do so

What can i do from now and summer to prepare for the internship and what is usually expected out of the interns, what are some things I can do to perform well at my job.
