13.How to revise for a test
Studying for tests may be one of the most difficult parts of school.(36)EIf you feel discouraged about an approaching test and need some directions for preparing yourself,consider using the following suggestions to help you out.
Aim foremost to understand the concepts.
Keep the important points in mind,and ignore unnecessary information.(37)C
Ask for help.
When the need arises,it is best to receive help from the others.(38)G You could also ask him/her for a set of questions and answers that could help you memorize the information.You could also ask a family member or a friend for help.
Practice in everyday life.
Fit reviewing into everyday life by sticking up notes with sentences you need to remember for the test written upon them.(39)FYou could possibly put one on the bathroom mirror,one at the table and another by the TV.This is optional but highly recommended.
(40)B
Find out how much you remember certain things and what's missing.Decide what you did well in and what you did not so well in.This may boost your chances of getting more marks in the assessment and may also help you remember for next time.For instance,if you are struggling on maths problems based on geometry,then put this down as something that you need to review more than the subjects you are good at.
Review often but little.
Do not push yourself and try reviewing everything in one day.Practice takes time and if you rush,you won't remember anything.

A.Go through what you have been learning.
B.Mark your practice tests.
C.As long as you remain focused on the main topics,you will be able to do well on the test.
D.However,even the worst test performance could be turned around into a successful attempt.
E.It can be difficult to remember the material and understand which points to study.
F.You will notice them every day and reviewing won't seem to be boring or dull.
G.Ask your teacher to summarize the topic with all the important points.
7.Do you have a hobby-something you really enjoy doing in your spare time?Have you ever wondered what it would be like if you could spend more time on your hobby and less time at work?Maybe it's not an either/or situation.Perhaps you can do both at the same time.
When choosing a career,one of the things you must consider is your interests.Why then do so many people not even think about their hobbies when a hobby is,in fact,an interest?Perhaps it's because even Webster's Dictionary defines a hobby as"a pursuit (消遣,嗜好) outside one's regular occupation (职业)".Maybe this is a rule you should break.After all,no one ever said your hobby had to stay separate from your occupation.In addition people are usually very skilled at their hobbies.The combination of interest and skill is a very compelling (令人信服的) reason to choose a particular career.
"Who's going to hire someone who loves making beaded (串珠状的) jewelry?"you may ask yourself.Good question.Don't wait for s omeone to hire you.Start your own business.That may be the best way to combine your hobby with your career.Those with hobbies that involve creating things,i.e.jewelry,clothing,or pottery,may do well to sell those items on their own.Before you go forward with your plans,though,you should find out whether being an entrepreneur (企业家) is for you.
When you attempt to turn your hobby into a career,don't forget to do your homework.Even though you may have enjoyed training your pet birds to sing the national song,that doesn't mean you're suitable to be an animal trainer.Be sure to research your career choice completely.There may be aspects of it that just aren't for you.In that case,stick to your day job,as they say,and save your hobby for your free time.
