What if you don't know how to study well? The Feynman Technique might help you.It's a study method that helps students learn by teaching others.
The Feynman Technique has been one of the best study methods for years.For one thing, it helps students really understand something instead of just memorizing information.Different from traditional study methods like rereading textbooks or reviewing notes, it gets students to be more active in the learning process.
If you want to use the Feynman Technique to study better, follow these steps.
To begin with, choose a topic you want to learn.If not, you'll end up jumping between the topics without developing a deeper understanding of any of them.
The second step is the heart of the Feynman Technique: explaining the topic simply enough to be understood by a sixthgrade student.This requires you to help the child understand by using the simplest and clearest language.This step helps divide indigestible topics into their most basic parts.
Next, review your explanation and try to find any area where you felt that you couldn't explain the topic simply.When possible, it can be very helpful to get advice from someone whose understanding is similar to that of a sixthgrader.
The fourth step is to improve your explanation using the information collected from the third step.
Finally, repeat the steps.The Feynman Technique works best with repetition, and that is why going through all the prior(先前的) steps just once is usually not enough to fully understand the topic.
Once you're confident you have learned the topic, it's time to give yourself a prize.
( )21.What question does Paragraph 2 answer?
A.What is the Feynman Technique?
B.How is the Feynman Technique used?
C.Why is the Feynman Technique good?
D.Where is the Feynman Technique used?

c.Explain it in the simplest words.
d.Repeat the steps until you really learn it.
e.Find the “imperfect part” of your explanation.
A.acebd B.aebcd
C.eabdc D.cebda
( )25.What is the writer's attitude towards the Feynman Technique?
A.Unclear. B.Supportive. C.Worried. D.Doubtful.

How can you remember a song for a long time? Why does your teacher use songs to teach you English? There is a reason for this.
Scientists are studying something between music and remembering a foreign language,like English.“Singing could be a new way of learning,especially for a foreign language.The brain likes to remember things in a catchy and relaxing way.For example, children can remember difficult words quickly when they are in a song,”said Dr.Karen Ludke.If children find it difficult to learn foreign languages,this new way may help.On his blog,Dr.Ludke wrote“A listenandrepeat singing way can help to learn foreign languages and open the door for future study in this area.”

Friendship Day is a great day for celebrating friendship.It falls on the first Sunday of August every year.Celebrating the festival was firstly started by the US in 1935,when the US Congress decided to set a day to honor friends and friendship.Since then, celebration of National Friendship Day became an annual event.The idea of honoring the beautiful friendship was welcomed by the people, particularly the youngsters all over the country.But now this doesn't only happen in the US.People in other countries are interested in it, too.
The idea of spending the day with friends was spread all over the world.With more and more countries joining in the celebrations,Friendship Day became an international festival.
Between 1935 and 1997,Friendship Day didn't have a symbol,like Santa Claus for Christmas.However, in 1997, the United Nations named Winnie the Pooh as the world's Ambassador(大使)of Friendship.
The traditional celebrations include activities such as meeting with friends and exchanging(交换)cards,flowers and gifts.Some people may have parties with their friends.Some may have lunch or dinner together.Others may hang out or go to the movies with friends on this special day.These are popular among all age groups from teenagers to old people.
Although Friendship Day and its celebrations may have changed over the years, the basic idea behind the festival remains the same.People enjoy the moment they spend together and express love and care for their friends.Today, Friendship_Day_is_being_celebrated_around_the_globe,across different cultures and social classes.
