22、Every student wants to study well．But studying requires right ways，or you waste both time and money．The following are the ways of studying．

    We should preview（預習）the lesson．Then you can get ready for the new lesson．

    The best time for reading is morning，because in the morning，the air is fresh and the mind is clear．For that reason，you can read effectively（有效地）：

In studying we must have patience（耐心）．If we have not known a text well, we must read it again．We should not read the next one until we have learned．the first one．

    When we are studying，we must put our hearts into the book，or we can get nothing from the book．

    We must always ask ”whys”．If it is not well understood， you can ask our teachers，our parents or friends．In any possible way，we must know it correctly．

We should review the lessons every day，and sum up（總結）what we have learned．

We should use the knowledge we have foamed．If you want to know how to swim，you must get into the fiver．And ff you want to be a basketball player, you must play basketball．Using it means you can master it completely．
