好英文娓娓动听Words and Expressions

There is a lot of misunderstanding about studying.Most students have not been taught the principles behind really effective working.Imagine a graph showing the amount a person learns against the number of hours he works in a day.If he doesn"t do any work, he learns nothing.If he does an hour"s work he learns a certain amount.If he does two hours"work he learns about twice as much.If he does more work he"ll learn still more.Now, it he tried to do 23 1/2 hours"work in 24,he"ll be so exhausted that he"ll hardly remember anything:what he learns will be very little.If he did less work he"d learn more.

The skill in being a student consists in getting one"s daily study as near the optimum point as possible. I cannot tell you what the optimum is.It differs with the type of work, A it differs from person to person, and even in the same person it varies from week to week.You must try to find your own.Every day you study, bear this principle of the optimum in mind.When you feel yourself getting fatigued, if you find yourself repeatedly reading over the same paragraph and not taking it in, that"s a pretty good sign you"ve reached the crest for the day and should stop.

Now, what are you doing with yourself when you aren"t working?Before examinations some students do nothing at all except sit in a chair and worry. Here is another misunderstanding.People too easily think of the mind as if it worked like the body, it does not.The mind is always turning.BIt gets its relaxation only by variety.That is what makes mental rest.

When you"ve finished your optimum hourage you must stop. You must not then sit around in the chair thinking about the work-that only tires without any learning.You must get out and do something.It doesn"t matter what-anything so long as you are actively doing something else but work.

好英文娓娓动听Words and Expressions

Of all the areas of learning the most important is the development of attitudes.Emotional reactions as well as logical thought processes affect the behavior of most people.

“The burnt child fears the fire”is one instance;another is the rise of figures like Hitler. Both these examples also point up the fact that attitudes come from experience.In the one case the experience is direct and impressive, in the other it is indirect and gradual.

The classroom teacher in the elementary school is in strategic position to influence attitudes. This is true partly because children acquire attitudes from those adults whose words they respect.

AAnother reason why it is true is that pupils often search somewhat deeply into a subject in school that has only been touched upon at home or has possibly never occurred to them before. To a child who had previously acquired little knowledge of Mexico, his teacher"s method of handling such a unit would greatly affect his attitude toward Mexicans.

The teacher can develop proper attitudes through social studies, science matters, the very atmosphere of the classroom, etc. However, when children come to school with undesirable attitudes, it is unwise to attempt to change their feelings by criticizing them.The teacher can achieve the proper effect by helping them obtain constructive experience.

To illustrate, first-grade pupils, afraid of policemen will probably change their attitudes after a classroom talk with the neighborhood officer in which he explains how he protects them. ln the same way, a class of older children can develop attitudes through discussion, research and all-day trips.

Finally, a teacher must constantly evaluate his own attitudes, because his influence can be harmful if he has personal prejudices.

BThis is especially true in respect to controversial issues and questions of which children should be encouraged to reach their own conclusion as result of objective analysis of all the facts.
