Wang Zhe, Class 6, Senior 1, Shenzhen Xin’an Middle School Instructed by Tang Ying Well-prepared youth lead to a powerful country. What can we students do to improve and perfect ourselves to make contributions to our country? First, we should make studying one of our habits. However, some students feel tired and bored and can’t keep studying hard every day. You are not able to turn studying into a habit unless you are truly interested in it. Therefore, what you need to do is to change your attitude about studying and make yourself fall in love with studying. Second, we should make full use of our time. If you use your time properly, you will find that you can do twice as much work as the people who do not realize the importance of controlling time. Therefore, we have to learn to be self-disciplined. Behind an academic achievement is usually years of hard work. It really depends on your perseverance. Furthermore, technology has brought much convenience to our modern life. Some apps can effectively help us to learn our subjects much more quickly. We should use them to help our learning and save our time so that we can gain as much knowledge as possible in a given period of time. Finally, we should set a goal for every period of our life. A dream will provide you with energy. When you want to give up, you can ask yourself why you can’t continue to do the things which other people can go on doing. If you keep on working hard at something, after a period time, you will enhance your confidence and force yourself to do it better and better. |
