For that reason, we can get good results.◆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 till 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 while we are reading.◆We must always ask "why". If it is not well understood, write it down and ask our teachers or our parents, or friends. In any possible way, we must know it and what we've learned can be used well and made better.Though there are many ways for studying, yet the above mentioned (提到的) will be quite enough if we can keep them in heart and do so.1. Why should we read in the morning? （不超过15个词）2. What must we have in studying? （不超过5 个词）3.
