4 . Computers are widely used in the world. As students, we can not only use them to relax, but also study online. Do you have any online classes? It is possible to take classes at home. All you need is a computer and an earphone.
However, most students don’t seem to like online classes. Recently, over 2000 students from 10 cities took part in a survey. According to the survey, only about 35 percent of the students like taking such classes.
Many students said it was hard to focus on studying while taking online classes. This was true for Li Jing, 15, at No.1 High School. “There are no classmates and no real teachers watching me. I can surf the Internet or do other things if I want to. It’s harder to always stay focused (专注),” she said.
Li Jing prepares a lot before taking her classes to make sure she will keep her attention. She also pushes herself to communicate with teachers. Students can come up with or answer questions while taking online classes.
Tian Lishan,14, at No.7 High School, thinks online interaction (互动) isn’t enough. “The online teachers don’t really get to know me. When I don’t hand in homework, all I get is a short message instead of real concern,” she said.
However, online classes still have advantages. “It saves time and money compared with taking offline classes. Also, if I don’t understand some parts of a lesson, I can watch it over again,” Li Jing said.

Do you have the experience of taking a class online? Today, taking a class online becomes a more and more popular way of learning for not only students but also many other people on work. However, taking a class online is quite different from sitting in a classroom. There aren’t usual class time and in-person interactions (互动), so it can be difficult to focus on online classes and homework. Below are useful online success strategies (策略) to use when taking an online class.
Making Time
Set a specific (明确的) study time each week, and make this a time that you honor and commit to every week.
Having Your Learning Space
It is very important for taking a class online to have a quiet study space with reliable (可靠的) Internet. Maybe this is your home, or area tie’s home. It could be a public space, such as a coffee shop. Whatever it is, make it work for you, and try to put your heart into study.
Thinking About Your Goals
Develop your study goals. What do you want to get from your course? Maybe you want to improve your study, or learn new skills. Whatever this goal is, write it down ahead of the course and focus on it during your course
Do Your Work
Complete all of your homework and projects on time.
Start Early
Do not wait until the last minute to complete homework.
Online learning allows you to be responsible for your own success. At last, it is up to you to stay organized, manage your time, ask questions, and complete all coursework on time.

7 . Taking online classes is becoming increasingly popular, but students have different views about it.
| Wang Qi, 14 I love taking online courses. They give me a lot more choices and freedom. We can choose to learn whatever we want. Also, online classes allow us to study whenever and wherever we want, which is very convenient. | Wu Jun, 13 I don’t think taking online classes is a good way to study. There are many exciting things on the Internet. Students can be distracted (使分心) from their courses easily. The whole learning process is not as organized as it is in the classroom. |
| Zhou Siya, 13 Online classrooms have some advantages. We might pay more attention to learning when we are alone in front of a computer with no one to distract us. Taking courses online also means we can have more time to use a computer, which is a good way to practice our computer skills. | Li Chunjie, 14 I think the idea of taking online courses is terrible. It can increase our touch with computers and the radiation from them could do harm to the human body, especially our eyes. Also, sitting in front of a computer for a long time without exercising can be harmful to our health. |

9 . The careful use of lecture videos could help people study more efficiently (高效地), said by researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA).
According to a new study, watching lecture videos at twice the normal speed has almost no bad effect on learning, even better. Watching lecture videos at an increased speed more than once even lead to improved learning and higher test scores compared to watching once at normal speed.
The study, done by UCLA’s Department of Psychology, put students into groups and asked them to watch lecture videos at different speeds without taking notes. The students then took tests based on the video context (上下文).
The test results showed little difference in scores between students who watched the videos at normal speed and those who watched at up to double speed—meaning students could halve their study time with little effect on learning. It means that students can save half of the time when watching videos.
But students shouldn’t speed up too much—because students who watched videos at two-and-a-half times the normal speed had lower test results.
It was also found that watching the videos twice at double speed—both one week before the test and again immediately before it—produced higher test scores compared to students who watched the videos just once at normal speed.
Nowadays, many countries use some types of remote (远程的) learning, including video lessons. And while students and teachers have worried about the effect of remote learning, the UCLA study suggests that, if used the right way, video lectures could actually help make studying more efficient.

Because of COVID-19, students sometimes have no choice (选择) but to take online classes. Where and how do they have online classes? Let’s listen to four students’ stories.
I'm Peter. I’m a middle school student in Shanghai. I take online classes at home with my father. He is a university teacher. He gives online lessons to his students on Monday and Wednesday. I like taking online classes because I can get up a bit later without worrying about being late for school. I often get up at 7:30 am and then have breakfast. And I don’t need to wear a school uniform.
My name is Tom. I’m a Grade 6 student in Beijing. I take six online classes a day on the computer at home. My mother keeps a watch on me. She often watches me having classes or doing homework. After class, I usually exercise for an hour.
My name is Lucy. I come from Chengdu, Sichuan Province. I’m a first grader. My mother needs to work, so she takes me to her office and I study there. I sit at a desk and use an iPad to take online classes. I have four lessons each day. Each lesson is 40 minutes. When I finish my classes, I spend a lot of time drawing.
