Never try to work when you are very hungry. If you want to do your homework right after school, you may want to eat something before getting to work. ①Always do your homework before you get too tired. Don't wait until very late in the evening, or your homework will seem much harder than it really is.
If you have more than an hour's work，you should give yourself a break after an hour. On the other hand，② you should work at least half an hour a time without stopping.
Don't put it off（推迟）until the last minute. If you put off doing your homework，you will have it on your mind，and you won't enjoy your free time so much. If you put it off until the end of the week or until night before a test，you will have too much catching up to do. A little each night, enough to keep up with（跟上）what is happening each day in school，will take the fear out of tests and keep you on top of it.
Do your homework at the same time every day. This will help you make it a habit. It will make part of your daily work easier to do，and it will make your free time more enjoyable as well.

We each have a memory(记忆力). That’s why we can still remember things after a long time. Some people have very good memories and they can easily learn many things by heart, but some people can only remember things when they say or do them over and over again. Many of the great men in the world got surprising memories.
A good memory is a great help in learning languages. Everybody learns his mother language when he is a small child. He hears the sounds, remembers them and then he learns to speak. Some children are living with their parents in foreign countries. They can learn two languages as easily as one because they hear，remember and speak two languages every day. In school it is not so easy to learn a foreign language because the pupils have so little time for it, and they are busy with other subjects, too.
But your memory will become better and better when you do more and more exercises.
