Passage 1(2024-25深圳中学期中)
Maybe you are an ordinary student. 26 Don’t think so. It’s not true. But anyone can become a better student if he or she wants to. Here’s how:
Plan your time carefully.
When planning your work, you should make a list of things that you have to do. After making this list, you should make a timetable of your time. First plan your time for eating, sleeping, dressing, etc. Then decide a good time for studying. 27 It’s also important to relax. A weekly timetable may not solve all your problems, but it will help you realize what is happening to your time.
Make good use of your time in class.
28 Listening carefully in class means less work later. Taking notes will help you remember what the teacher says. Put up your hand when you know the answer to the questions the teacher asks. Just remember: Don’t waste any time in class.
Study regularly (有规律的).
When you get home from school, go over your notes, review the important points that your teacher is going to discuss the next day, read that material. 29 If you do these things regularly, the material will become more meaningful, and you will remember it longer.
30
The purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about a subject. The world won’t end if you don’t pass a test, so don’t be over worried.
There are other ways that might help you with your study. You will probably find many others after you have tried these.
A. These will help you understand the next class.
