Grades For some students getting better grades can seem like an impossible task sometimes With the challenges of school just paying attention in class or studying hard isn t always enough But what if there were other ways for students to improve their grades For parents and students who have 第 8 页 共 15 页 ever wondered if this is possible now you can rest easy Research suggests that a person who likes doing activities can improve their grades Scientists think that those students who are active are not just exercising their bodies but also exercising their brains In turn they can be able to improve their grades at school In the most recent study researchers found that when children played for half an hour each day they were better at organizing their schoolwork as well as doing project work and learning traditionally difficult subjects such as maths What does this mean for children who aren t active Researchers think that if kids don t get enough activities they are going to be at a disadvantage when it comes to school performance In the research experiment a group of children skipped with ropes played basketball and did a number of other games or exercises Another group of children didn t do any activities They took part in testing both before the experiment and after the experiment Testing was mainly for maths and reading skills Results showed that the children in the activity group did better on the tests than those who had no activity All work and no play will not only make Jack a dull 迟钝的 boy but will also negatively 消 极地 affect his grades in school according to

activities C help them to organize their schoolwork D let them solve problems by themselves 6 5 分 信息归纳 Dear Fatima Thank you for your wonderful birthday present It was lovely I told you in my last
