Do you ever feel like you are just rushing from one subject to another? When things happen so fast, maybe you can’t understand clearly what you are doing or learning, so it is important to stop yourself to think about what you have been doing or learning.
Self-reflection(反省) means slowing down and calming yourself, including calming your mind. By calming down and going slowly, you give your brain a chance to think about what it has already received. 1. Others keep a diary. What’s more, taking notes is also OK. Each method works, depending on your own personal learning. 2..
First, choose the proper time to do it. School textbooks are divided into units of study. This makes it easier to begin self-reflection. 3. Sometimes you know the unit is over because there is some kind of test. Use these natural breaks to stop and do self-reflection.
Then, find a quiet place and take out your reflection diary. 4. Let your mind think about the notes you have written and make some connections.
5. Maybe you learned a new way to work out a math problem, but you’re not sure when to use it.
Writing down your questions will help you remember to look for answers the next time you are working with the same topic.
Successful students always know self-reflection is important. If you have never taken the time to do self-reflection, try it now.
A.Write down some notes on the new things that you learned in the unit.
B.You can follow the steps to do so self-reflection.
C.Some people prefer to do self-reflection only in their mind.
D.Finally, think about things that you are not sure of.

Since is was built during the Ming Dynasty, it’s said that the Forbidden City has survived more than 200 earthquakes. For an old building made from wood and stone, that’s really impressive. But what’s even more impressive is the intelligent(智能) design feature(特点) that’s kept it standing for all these years.
According to experts, the answer to the Forbidden City’s strength(牢固), as well as other ancient Chinese buildings’, lies in dougong — a centuries-old building method invented in China. This is the name for special brackets(构件) on building. Although being held together without any nails(钉子) or glue, the brackets are perfect at keeping structures together when the weather gets bad.
“Dougong design is an important earthquake resistant(抗震的) feature of classical Chinese structures, because the framework(框架) changes in shape when under pressure, much like the shock absorbers(减震器) of a car,” according to Chinese National Geography. “Ancient Chinese craftsmen(工匠) created structures that were both lasting and aesthetically(在美学方面) pleasing, showing their advanced understanding of architecture, materials, and structural science.”
A recent television documentary by UK broadcaster Channel 4 put the skills of the ancient building’s designers to the test. A group of Chinese craftsmen and engineers were shown building a scale model(按比例制作的模型) of one of the Forbidden City’s places, at one fifth of the size.
To show how strong ancient Chinese architecture really is, the model went through a simulated(模拟的) earthquake of 9.5 on the Richter scale—equivalent(等同于) to the largest ever recorded quake — and survived. Instead of falling apart, the model was just moved gently during the test.
The Forbidden City draws visitors because of its rich history and cultural importance, but perhaps it should add one more thing to its list of attractions: earthquake shelter.
