문제: Some students prefer to study alone. Others prefer to study with a group of students. Which do you prefer? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answers.
Some people may argue whether studying alone is good or not. Some may believe that studying with a group is a more efficient way to gather many ideas. However, I have a different opinion. Even if there are advantages of a group study, I prefer to study alone. There will be two reasons supporting my idea below.
To begin with, I can concentrate more when I study alone. If there are many friends when I’m studying, it’s hard to concentrate on my subjects. In other words, chatting with friends includes not only studying, but unnecessary things. I have a great example supporting my idea. There was a friend who couldn’t study alone. She usually studied with some friends. However, she couldn’t get a good grade due to being preoccupied with useless things, hanging out with the friends before exams. Thus, I believe studying alone is better than studying with a group.
In addition, it’s helpful to manage study time. If someone has a study group, he/she should follow the time which other members have chosen. Moreover, if some members of the group cancel a gathering, he/she has to cancel his own plan because of other members. It’s very common to cancel a gathering sometimes due to some members. My friend had a study group in which there were only five members. It was so small that a plan of day got naturally canceled because just three members didn’t come. Therefore, I believe that studying with a group is not good for managing time.
I have come to the conclusion that studying alone is better than with a group in some reasons. As I said at first, there are also advantages of studying with a group. However, I maintain that studying alone is beneficial to focus on subjects and control time.
다 쓰는데 25분 좀 안 걸리고 다시 문법 수정하는데 10분 정도 걸려서.. 5분 초과인듯 하네요. 제가 토플 한번도 안 봐서 잘 모르는데, 독립형 쓰기전에 생각하는 시간 포함해서 30분인가요? 아니면 문제주고 잠깐 생각하는 시간 5분이라도 있나요?
