Why are you study habits different from those of your friends? Why do you seem to learn faster in some classes while more slowly in others? One reason you may not know is that people have different types. Scientists say there are three different learning types: Visual(視覺型)，Auditory(聽覺型)，and Kinesthetic (動覺型)。

Visual learners learn best by seeing. If you seem to easily remember information from pictures, graphs(圖表)，and videos, you are probably a visual learner. You’re not good at copying down what the teacher says in class. Never mind. You can draw graphs or pictures instead, if you find that works better for you.

Auditory learners learn best by hearing. If you seem to easily remember things by hearing them, then you are probably an auditory learner. You must listen carefully while the teacher is speaking because it’s the easiest way for you to learn . Sometimes you may find that taking notes tops you from listening carefully. After class, you can write down what you remember or borrow your friend’s notes to copy.

Kinesthetic learners learn best by doing. If you seem to learn best by working with your hands, you are probably a kinesthetic learner. Taking notes by writing can make you pay close attention to information as you receive it. Of course, you can learn best by making full use of labs or other class activities.

Hope you learn better by knowing what your personal learning type is.

Dylan Glick, _____ 8-grade student, thought of the idea of a "retractable (可縮回的) remote." The remote has a cord to connect with its resting place. When people click a button on the remote, the cord will ____ the remote back to its resting place.

"It is definitely something that I would use, and I'm sure my parents would too," said Glick. He said that sometimes at night when he wants to go to bed, he needs at last ten minutes to find the remote. So he ____ with the idea.

In 2015，the average (平均的) school time for primary school students increased to 8.1 hours a day, from 6.7 hours in 2010. This report was from an important education organization in China.

The report said that middle school students spent 11 hours a day at school in 2015,3.3 hours longer than five years ago. Besides, Chinese students had too much home-work to do, which also put pressure on their parents. About 80% of parents said they had to supervise (監(jiān)督)their children while they were doing their homework.

Chinese students also spent more time on learning outside the classroom. By the end of 2016, about 137 million students had taken part in after-school classes, the report said. Chinese students spent 17 hours a week on learning after classes finished, much longer than the average 一7. 8 hours around the world.

Luckily, these days the Ministry of Education has realized these problems and is now trying to make some rules to solve the problems. I hope Chinese students can study easily and happily in the future.
