Curiosity (好奇心) is part of human nature. Children are famous for wanting answers to lots of questions. People keep reading or watching because they want to find out what happens. Curiosity also provides many advantages.
Learning is the easiest if you have a true interest in something new. Curiosity can develop that interest when you have a question. Many of the greatest inventions were made by curious people. People always wanted to know how things worked. (A) Thanks to their curiosity, people now know far more about the world.
Curiosity helps students study well at school. If you develop the curiosity of learning, classes will become more fun. Even if you’re no longer a student, curiosity will make you do better in your work.
What do you do if you’re not already curious?
Firstly, improve your curiosity. Curiosity is a skill that can be improved. If you act like you’re curious, you’ll quickly start to actually feel curious. Often, the more you learn about a topic (主题), the more interesting it becomes. Then, enjoy different opinions. When you learn about a topic, get information from as many sources (来源) as possible. Read different books, watch or listen to speeches and ask questions. Don’t always get your information from the same source. Finally, ask a lot of questions. Everyone knows something that you don’t. Find out what that is, and ask about it. So you need to search for a wide choice of points even for one question.
In the classroom or out of it, developing curiosity is sure to be helpful. (B)不断提升你的好奇心，你就会变得越来越好。
