But studying needs right ways, or we would waste the time or the money. The following are the ways for studying.The best time for reading is morning. Because in the morning, the air is fresh and our minds are clear. For that reason, we can get good results.When we study we must be patient. If we dont understand a text well, we must read it again. We should not read the next until we have learned the first one well.When we are studying, we must put our hearts into the book. We cant read absentmindedly (心不在焉地), or we could get nothing from the book while we are reading.We must always ask “why”. If we cant understand well, write it down and ask our teachers or parents, brothers or friends, in any possible ways. We must know it completely and then our knowledge can be used well.Though there are many ways for studying, however, the above mentioned (提到的) will be helpful if we can keep them in heart.45 .
