There are some things that we don’t often think about, like walking,because there really is no need to.There are other things we don’t often think about,like learning,but we should.
51 However,many of us have no real idea what the best way to learn is. So a group of scientists in the USA interviewed some excellent students to find some answers. 52
Almost all students re-read when they are trying to learn new information. But if you read something again right after you just finish learning it,there is almost no use. 53
Self-testing is one of the best ways of remembering new things. 54 You can just answer questions and see the answers at the back of a book, or you can ask and answer questions with a friend.
Many students underline(标记)things when they are reading something for the first time or when they don’t really know if it is important or not. But this doesn’t help much with learning.
55 It is much better to try and learn less at one time and study it a few days later.
