也許你不喜歡學(xué)習(xí)，因?yàn)樗杏X像是一種孤單的活動。有一個(gè)讓學(xué)習(xí)更有趣的方法，就是把它變成一個(gè)小組活動。叫你的朋友一起來組成一個(gè)學(xué)習(xí)小組吧。

You and your friends can give each other tests for your mid-terms. Youll still be studying， but at least you will have company3. Find study partners4 who you enjoy being around. Just make sure that you will also focus5 on your work.

你和朋友可以在期中考試前互相測驗(yàn)。你仍在學(xué)習(xí)，但至少有人陪你。找你喜歡待在一起的學(xué)習(xí)伙伴，只要能確保你一樣會專心學(xué)習(xí)。

Take turns picking a place to study. Maybe you could ask some friends to meet you at a coffee shop for study. Next time， let your friend think of somewhere fun to go.

Ask for help.

尋求幫助。

You will enjoy things that you are good at. Everyone likes feeling successful6. If you have a hard time in school， learning might feel less fun than it could be.

你一定會喜歡做擅長的事情，每個(gè)人都喜歡成功的感覺。如果你在學(xué)校里苦苦掙扎，學(xué)習(xí)可能就沒那么有趣。

向老師求助。談?wù)勀阆矚g和不喜歡的東西，看看你是否還有其他的課程可以上。父母也能幫上很大的忙，讓你媽媽花點(diǎn)時(shí)間陪你做作業(yè)。這可能是一個(gè)很好的方式讓你可以與家人相處。

制定目標(biāo)。
