根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

    Every student has his/her own style of studying and it's up to you to use the available resources to be as effective and productive as possible. Here are some tips on how to study effectively.

    ● Know yourself. When determining the best approach, you need to assess your personality. Some people can read for hours while others can't sit still through more than one chapter. Find your pace, improve it and work around your strengths and weaknesses.

    If you prefer being alone, learn to study by yourself.

    ●Set a goal. It'll not only help you keep focused and stay on track, but it'll also help you organize your time and activities.

    ●Learn over time. It's impossible to learn a lot of things in a short time. If you don't know or understand the lesson from the start, you won't get it the night before your big test.

    ●Allocate(分配) your time between studying and other activities. Create a routine schedule for your studying time. Strictly follow this schedule so as to develop an effective studying session.

    ●Have time to rest. It's necessary to have enough time to rest in order to regain all the energy used up by the body from all the studying. Communicate with other people and participate in recreational activities to help you relax and refresh your mind.

    Following the tips above, you can easily have your way of studying effectively!

A. Have good study habits.

B. Set a realistic and reasonable schedule.

C. Try to discover the type of reading that best suits you.

D. Your mind won't be so sharp if you don't have enough sleep.

E. You need to determine what you want to achieve in a given subject.

F. If you need other people to help you, get a tutor(家教) or join a study group.

G. It's best to study smaller loads of information repeatedly over a period of time.

    Does Using Technology in the Classroom Help College Students?

    Almost anywhere in the world, you are likely to find people doing the same thing in public places, on trains and buses or wherever else you look. They spend their day looking at laptop computers, smartphones or other personal electronic devices. They are thinking mainly about their electronic devices, and not much else.

    {#blank#}1{#/blank#} More and more college students have no problem walking into a classroom and immediately opening their laptops. Others may spend an entire study period with a smartphone in hand. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} But recent research suggests that using technology during class time may harm college students' ability to remember and process the subject material they are learning.

    Arnold Glass, a professor in Rutgers University in New Brunswick, New Jersey, and a student researcher investigated the issue of divided student attention. During half of their daily class periods, the students in their study were permitted to use any electronic device as much as they wanted. {#blank#}3{#/blank#}

    The students' academic performance was measured in several ways throughout the semester. They took a short test every day, longer tests every few weeks and a final exam covering all the class material. The researchers found that the average daily quiz results showed no evidence of harmful effects from the use of technology. {#blank#}4{#/blank#} They showed that all the students performed poorly on questions covering material taught on days when they were permitted to use technology in the classroom.

    Glass says that it shows the use of electronic devices in the classroom prevents students from processing information. The students hear what the professor is saying. But they might be buying things online or reading unrelated emails at the same time, for example. So they are not thinking deeply about the subject matter as they are hearing it. {#blank#}5{#/blank#}

A. The same can be said about the world of college education.

B. However, the average results of the larger tests and final exam told a different story.

C. And that, Glass says, makes it harder for the information to enter their long-term memory.

D. Technology, in general, is not the only way that students find to distract themselves in class.

E. But even if technology is helpful to some students, there are times when it needs to be turned off.

F. Some students argue that the increasing use of technology can have many helpful effects on society.

G. During the other half, researchers closely watched them to make sure no one was using any technology.
