▶ Your Answer : Some people think that engaging in other activities while studying has a negative effect. However, in my opinion, engaging in other activities while studying has a positive effect on students. There are two reasons. First, it can help students concentrate. Second, it can relieve their stress. To begin with, engaging in other activities while studying can help students concentrate by doing lots of activities such as listening music and watiching television. I belive that activities are helpful to concentrate more. Imagine you only study for all day withouth doing anything except study. You will become tedious. This is because the level of concentration a person has is not longer. But if you engage in other activities while studying, you can stand more time to focus on your work. Students are similar to this case. For example, I usually study listening music even when I solve math problems. On the other hand, my roommate do not engage any activities during her study. Both her and I prepare our final exams. We take the same test, but there was a big problem. The place where we take exam was so noisy and distracted. For these reasons, my roommate could not focus on the exam, and finally she could not write perfectly even though she studied hard. In contrast, I could do well because I had uesd to study engaging other activities and the environment do not influence my concentration. As a result, I got 'A' and my roommate could not gain a great grade. On top of that, engaging other activities while studying helps students relieve their stress. These days, students spend most of their time studying and working everday, so some other activities can be of big help to them and relieving stress is important because it influences their study too. In other words, having the outlet for stress has a maning in itself since it helps one regain energy and find the strength to go on. For instance, my younger sister was in high school and she usually got stress from the fact that she had to enter university while studying. She studied 10hours everyday, but she cannot gain good scores. So I gave advice for her to stretch her body. And she became to enjoy stretching and also feel less stressful than before. Moreover, she memorized some professional terms during stretching her body. Consquently, she could clear head and memorize all the difficult terms and finally got a great grade on her biology test. To sum up, I am sure that engaging in other activities while studying helps students concentrate more on their study and relieve stress. In this regard, I think engaging in other activities while studying has a positive effect on students. |
