Ways to study better
Sit in the front row.
If you happen to be shy, sitting in the front row can be very uncomfortable at first.1.You can hear better. You can see everything on the board without having to crane your neck around the head in front of you. 2.Don't underestimate the power of this. If your teacher knows you're really listening and that you care about what you're learning, he or she will be extra willing to help you. Besides, it'll feel like you've got your own private teacher.
Create a study space.
Carve out a place at home that is your study space. If you've got a family around you, make sure everyone understands that when you're in that space, you're not to be interrupted unless the house is on fire. Create a space that helps you make the most of your study time. Do you need absolute quiet or do you prefer to have loud music playing? Do you like working at the kitchen table in the midst of everything or do you like a quiet room with the door shut? 3.
Form or join a study group.
4. If that's you, form a study group in your class or join one that's already organized. There are lots of benefits to studying in a group. You have to be organized. You can't procrastinate(拖延). You have to really understand something to be able to explain it out loud to someone else.
5.
Do your homework. Read the assigned pages, and then some. Plug your topic into the Internet, grab another book at the library, and see what else you can learn about the subject. Turn your work in on time. If extra credit work is offered, do that too. I know this takes time, but it'll ensure you really know your stuff. And that's why you're going to school. Right?
A.You can make eye contact with the professor.
B.You can raise your hand to indicate you've got a question.
C.Do All the Work, Plus More.
D.Know your own style and create the space you need.
E.However, it's one of the best ways to pay attention to everything being taught.
F.A lot of people study better with others.
G.Make Practice Tests.
From Mozart to Metallica, tons of people enjoy listening to various types of music while they paint, write, or draw. Many believe that music helps inspire creativity, but an international Study conducted by English and Swedish researchers is challenging that idea.
Psychologists from Lancaster University, The University of Gavle, and The University of Central Lancashire say that their findings indicate music actually prevents creativity.
To come to their conclusions, researchers had participants complete verbal insight(洞察) problems designed to inspire creativity while sitting in a quiet room, and then again while music played in the background. They found that background music "significantly impaired( 削弱)" the participants' ability to complete tasks associated with verbal creativity.
The research team also tested background noises such as those commonly heard in a library, but found that such noises had no impact on subjects' creativity.
The tasks were simple word games. For example, participants were given three words, such as dress, dial, and flower. Then, they were asked to find a single word associated with all three that could be combined to form a common phrase or word. The single word, in this case, would be "sun” (sundress, sunflower, etc.)
Participants completed the tasks in either a quiet room, or while exposed to three different types of music; music with unfamiliar lyrics, instrumental music, or music with familiar lyrics.
"We found strong evidence of impaired performance when playing background music in comparison to quiet background conditions," says co-author Dr. Neil McLatchie of Lancaster University.
Dr. McLatchie and his colleagues theorize that music interferes (干 扰) with the verbal working memory processes of the brain, preventing creativity. Also, as far as the library background noise having seemingly no effect, the study's authors believe that was the case because library noises create a "steady state" environment that doesn't prevent concentration.
It's worth mentioning that even familiar music with well known lyrics impaired participants creativity, regardless of whether or not it produced a positive reaction, or whether participants typically studied or created while listening to music.
"To conclude, the findings here challenge the popular view that music inspires creativity, and instead show that music, regardless of the presence of semantic(语义的) content (no lyrics, familiar lyrics or unfamiliar lyrics), always prevent creative performance in insight problem solving", the study reads.
1.What conclusion can most probably be drawn from this passage?
A.Background music inspires creativity.
B.Background music impairs creativity.
C.Background noises have bad influence on creativity.
D.Different music has different effects on creativity.
2.The participants were asked to______________.
A.do some reading in a library
B.design some verbal insight problems
C.do some word games
D.listen to some background music
3.Why can't the participants perform well?
A.Because the music prevents concentration.
B.Because they aren't familiar with music.
C.Because the tasks are too challenging
D.Bee the background is not creative.
4.Which of the connections about background music with their learning effects is true?
A.The music with a positive reaction has a positive effect.
B.The effects depend on the contents of music.
C.Quiet music does good to learning effects.
D.All background music is bad for learning effects.
Apps from Chinese developers have been gaining popularity on Indian app stores for some time. In 2018, as many as 44 of the top 100 Android apps in India were developed by Chinese firms.
But things changed last year as local developers put on a fight. According to app analytics and marketing firm AppsFlyer, Indian apps as a whole have recaptured their original standing.
Indeed, 41% of the top 200 apps in Indian editions of Googl's Play Store and Apple's App Store in the second and third quarters of last year were developed by Indian developers and local firms, up from 38% in 2018, the report said. Data from App Annie, another research firm, corroborates (证实) the claim.
"This uptick happened mainly at the expense of Chinese apps, which fell from their lead position to 38% from 43% in 2018. Altogether, Chinese and Indian apps make up almost four-fifths (79%) of the list," the report said.
The change comes as scores of Indian firms have launched payments, gaming, news and entertainment apps in the last year and a half, said AppsFlyer, which analyzed 6.5 billion installs (安装)in the second and third quarters of last year.
But Chinese developers are not giving up, and continue to keep an "impressive" fight in each category, the report said.
India, which is home to more than 450 million smartphone users and keep relatively loose laws to support an open market, has naturally appeared as an attractive battleground for developers worldwide.
Many Chinese firms, including Xiaomi and ByteDance, regard India as one of their largest markets. Tik Tokapp has amassed(积累) more than 200 million users in India, for instance. Xiaoni, which leads the Indian smartphone market, is quickly building a series of services for users in India.
It launched a lending app the in country earlier in November 2018.
1.Because Indian firms launched varieties of apps in 2019__________.
A. Chinese apps lost their lead position.
B.Chinese developers gave up their competition.
C.India apps make up most of the top 200.
D.the percentage of Chinese apps went down sharply.
2.The underlined word uptick in the 4th paragraph most probably means__________
A.Sharp decrease. B.slight increase
C.a little fall D.statistical data
3.Many Chinese developers compete for Indian markets for all the following reasons except_________
A.huge market need.
B.laws in favor of foreign firms.
C.a market system open to the world
D.absolutely fierce competition.
4.What attitude did the author hold when analyzing the market situation?
A.Critical B.Confused
C.Subjective D.Objective
