PART III: READING (6 points)

Question 1: Read the passage carefully and choose the best answers (1 point).Good results in your study can be obtained from developing good study habits. The best place to study is a comfortable room with good lighting. The best chair for studying should be the one which you would be comfortable in, but not so comfortable that you may fall asleep in it after a while. Before you start, look for a quiet environment without distractions. If you find your home too noisy to study, try the library or community center instead. When you study, set realistic goals for yourself to achieve. For example, do not try to study five chapters of Geography in one sitting when you know that it takes more than an hour to finish one chapter. Furthermore, remember not to push yourself too hard. When you have studied for a period of time, reward yourself by taking a short break. You could perhaps take a short walk or listen to some music for a while. If you begin to feel sleepy when studying, do not force yourself to go on as you may lose your power of concentration. Instead, you should take a short sleep to refresh yourself. Studying may be strenuous on the eyes. When you study, it may be a good idea to lift your eyes away from your books occasionally. Looking at objects at a distance or at greenery can help soothe tired eyes.
