Homework is a problem for students all over the world. As a student, you have lots of homework to do every day. It’s a major part of a student’s schooldays. It’s the best way to review what you have learned in class. And it helps you understand important concepts (概念). Luckily, there are several things you can do to make homework less difficult.
Be sure you understand the homework
Write your homework down in your notebook if you need to. Don’t be afraid to ask questions about it. It’s much easier to ask the teacher during or after class than to try to remember later that night!
Use your time at school
Many schools have study hall. It is designed to allow students to study on their own. It’s more interesting to play with friends. But the more homework you finish at school, the less you’ll have to do that night.
Take a break
It’s difficult to hold your attention for too long. So take some breaks while doing your homework. Sitting for too long without relaxing will make you feel very tired. Taking a 15-minute break every hour is a good idea for most people.
Make a plan
If you don’t finish your homework at school, think about how much you have left, so you can budget your time. Most students have between 1 hour and 3 hours of homework a night. If it’s a heavy homework day, you’ll need to spend more time on it. It’s a good idea to make a homework timetable, especially when you want to enjoy sports or other activities.

People can’t see you when you’re speaking on the phone, but they can hear you. So the way you speak is especially important. In fact, researchers have found that 80% of communication on the phone is through your voice and only 20% is from the words you use. Here are our top tips on how to speak over the phone.
| Your facial expression (面部表情) can influence (影响) your voice. For example, if you smile, your voice will sound warm and friendly, but if you have an angry look on your face, it can make you sound unpleasant. |
| If you speak too loudly, you could sound angry. And if you speak too softly, it’ll be difficult to hear you. So speak loudly enough to be heard clearly, but not so loud that you’re shouting. |
| Gesturing can influence your voice. When you make gestures (手势), your voice will sound warmer. Gestures are also useful to help you give the right words or even find the words you need. |
| If you’re feeling nervous, stand up and move around. It will help you to feel relaxed and reduce (减少) the nervousness in your body. At the same time, it can make your voice sound more confident (自信的). |
