    Never try to work when you are very hungry. If you want to do your homework right after school, you
may want to eat something before getting to work. ①Always do your homework before you get too tired.
Don't wait till very late in the evening, or your homework will seem much harder than it really is. If you
have more than an hour's work, you should give yourself ②a break after an hour. On the other hand, ③you
should work at least half an hour at a time without stopping.
    Don't put it off (推迟) until the last minute. If you put off doing your homework, you will have it on your
mind, and you won't enjoy your free time so much. If you put it off until the end of a week or until right
before a test, you will have too much to do. A little each night, enough to keep up with (跟上) what is
happening each day in school, will take the fear out of tests and keep you on top of it.
    ④每天在同一个时间做作业. This will help you make it a habit. It will make part of your daily work
easier to do, and it will make your free time more enjoyable as well.
