“Be sure to study hard for that test!”

“要為考試努力學(xué)習(xí)!”

How many times have you heard that? But what does it even mean to study hard? Do you have to study until your head hurts? It sounds like it!

聽過這句話無數(shù)次了?但是到底什么才是努力學(xué)習(xí)?要學(xué)到頭疼?聽起來是的!

The whole idea of studying harder suggests that you really don’t try very hard as a normal practice, and that is probably not true. So instead of studying harder for better results, you can study smarter, and there is good news: it won’t give you a headache.

努力學(xué)習(xí)意味著你平常并不把努力當(dāng)做一回事兒，但事實(shí)可能并非如此。因此，除了為得到高分而努力學(xué)習(xí)，你可以聰明地學(xué)，好消息是：聰明地學(xué)可不會頭疼。

How to Study Smarter

怎樣聰明地學(xué)

There are a few adjustments you can make to your normal study routine to make the most of your time and effort. These adjustments are based on a few scientific discoveries about learning.

在你日常的學(xué)習(xí)規(guī)劃中做出適當(dāng)調(diào)整可以充分利用時間和努力。這些調(diào)整基于有關(guān)學(xué)習(xí)的科學(xué)調(diào)查。

We learn over time with repetition.

我們學(xué)習(xí)時要復(fù)習(xí)。

We learn from active experience.

我們要在積極體驗(yàn)中學(xué)。

We learn through comparison.

我們要通過對比來學(xué)習(xí)。

We learn by testing ourselves.

我們要通過測試來學(xué)習(xí)。

Time and Repetition

學(xué)習(xí)時間和復(fù)習(xí)

Some studies on brain science have shown that the practice of revisiting information enhances learning. In other words, it is a good idea to study material more than one time, over a period of days.

有關(guān)腦部的研究表明復(fù)習(xí)有助于強(qiáng)化所學(xué)內(nèi)容。換言之，學(xué)習(xí)最好不止一遍，要隔幾天復(fù)習(xí)一次。

To study smarter, then, you should start your study session a few days ahead of time and study a few hours, walk away from the material, and study the same material again a few days later.

要聰明地學(xué)，就要在計(jì)劃前幾天開始學(xué)習(xí)，學(xué)幾個小時，放下學(xué)習(xí)材料，幾天后再看一次。
