(三)             Study Tips          If you find it hard to concentrate when you study, here are some helpful tips:The first thing to do is to find a good place to study. If you study at home, find a quietcorner away from the television and the bed. Do not face the window. If it is noisy at home,study in the library. Seeing other people concentrating on their studies helps you concentrate,too. When you study at home or in the library, make sure that nothing on the desk will distractyou.
         Before starting to study, write down on a small notebook what your are going to study.Think about how much time you have, and then decide how much time for each task. Take aten-minute break between two tasks. Take a good rest at the break.
         After finishing a task, cross it out from the notebook. It gives you a sense of achievement ,and because you want to finish more, you concentrate more. Give yourself some prizes on theweekend if you finish all the work during the week.
