What is the best way to study? This is a very important question. Some Chinese students often   31  very hard for long hours. It is a   32   habit, but it is not a better way to study. An efficient(讲效率的) student must   33   enough sleep, enough food and enough rest. Every week you   34   to go out for a walk or visit some friends or some nice places. It's good       35   your study. When you return to your studies, you'll find yourself   36   than before and you'll learn more.
Maybe we can   37   that learning English is   38   taking Chinese medicine. We don't mean that it's bitter (苦的). We mean that like Chinese medicine, the efficiency of your study   39   slowly but surely.   40   slowly but surely every day and effects will come just like Chinese medicine.

This is a true story in Guyana. One day, a child took some silver paper from a cigarette box. He rolled it into a tiny ball and pushed it up his nose. He couldn’t get it out again. He ran crying to his mother. His mother couldn’t get the paper out, either. A week later the paper was still in his nose. His nose began to have a bad smell.

So his mother took his child to the hospital. The doctor looked up his nose. She put a tiny steel rod（钢棒） into his nose and felt the paper. She said she would have to cut his nose to get the paper out.

The child’s mother came home looking sad. She didn’t want her child to have his nose cut. He was a handsome boy and the cut would make him ugly.

Next day, the child’s mother took him to her friend Sidney. Sidney lived in a house with an old woman called May. She asked to see the child, so the child let her look up his nose. He closed his eyes.

“Yes, I can see it,” May said. “It will be out soon!”

As she spoke, she shook black pepper on the child’s nose. He gave a mighty sneeze and the paper flew out. His mother was surprised. May told her to take the boy to the sea for a swim. She said the salt water would go up his nose and stop the bad smell.

So the child didn’t have to go to the hospital and gave his nose cut.
