A common fear among students is to enter the exam room and immediately experience your brain emptying itself of every fact youve studied. To overcome this fear and really help yourself remember what youve learned， it is useful to use a wide range of study tips. You will be surprised to see how easy it can be to remember difficult concepts and multiple dates once you establish good study habits， use some active learning tips to really cement1 the information in your brain， and use memory tricks to help make remembering easier.

學生们普遍担心的是，进入考场后，立即体验到大脑一片空白、忘记所有学习内容的情况。为了克服这种恐惧，真正帮助自己记住所学的东西，广泛使用学习技巧是很有用的。一旦你养成了良好的学习习惯，使用一些有效的学习技巧来巩固你大脑中的信息，并使用记忆技巧来帮助记忆，你会惊讶地发现记住难懂的概念和各种日期是多么容易。

Practising Active Learning 练习主动学习

1 Read your materials out loud. Using multiple senses can help you retain more information， so even just saying the words out loud can be helpful. Dont worry about looking foolish reading your biology notes to your dog.

大声朗读你的材料。结合多种感官可以帮助你记住更多的信息，所以即使只是大声说出来也是有帮助的。别担心对着你的狗读生物笔记会显得很傻。

2 Discuss what you are learning. Similar to reading your notes out loud， talking about what you are learning can also help you retain2 the information better. You can study with a friend and quiz each other.

讨论你正在学习的内容。与大声朗读笔记类似，谈论你正在学习的内容也可以帮助你更好地记住信息。你可以和朋友一起学习，互相测验。

3 Write out what you have to memorize. Either taking notes on what youve read or simply re-writing over and over a formula3 or concept youre trying to master can really help. You can also write out flashcards with important facts， dates， or formulas on them. This is doubly helpful， since the act of writing will help you remember， and the flashcards are a portable4 tool you can review while riding on a bus or waiting for a bus.

写下你必须记住的东西。做笔记记下你读过的东西，或者只是一遍又一遍地写下你正试着掌握的公式或概念，都真的有帮助。你也可以在卡片上写下重要的事实、日期或公式。这是双重的帮助，因为写的行为会帮助你记忆，而抽认卡是一种便携式工具，你可以在乘车或等车时查看。

4 Master nemonic5 devices. These are memory tools that help you recall things such as names， dates， and facts through turning that information into a memorable rhyme6， word， or sentence. For instance， you can remember the names of the Great Lakes （Huron， Ontario， Michigan， Erie， and Superior） by remembering the word HOMES. The first letter of the name of each lake is used to create that new word.

掌握记忆工具。这些记忆工具通过将信息转换成难忘的韵律、单词或句子，帮助你回忆诸如姓名、日期和事实等。例如，你可以通过记住“HOMES（家）”这个词来记住五大湖的名字（休伦湖、安大略湖、密歇根湖、伊利湖和苏必利尔湖）。用每个湖的名字的第一个字母来创造出这个新单词。

5 Create rhymes for what you are trying to remember. Rhymes are a type of mnemonic device that use audio （sound） information to help remember things. In other words， the rhymes are easily linked together for us by their sound. Try to organize the information or list of words youre trying to remember into a rhyme. Think about this classic rhyme： “In 1492， Columbus sailed the ocean blue.”

把你想记住的东西编成韵文。押韵是一种使用音频（声音）信息帮助记忆事物的记忆工具。换句话说，这些韵律很容易通过声音让我们把它们联系在一起。试着把你想要记住的信息或单词组织成韵文。想想这首经典的韵文：“1492年，哥伦布在蓝色海洋中航行。”

6Develop a mind map. Mind maps are diagrams or pictures you can create to help you visually organize information. They help show relationships between pieces of information so you can better understand the connections between different concepts or groups of data. By better understanding how different ideas connect together， you can better remember them and recall them at test time.

Place the main idea in the center of your mind map， and use connected branches to add related information.

You can create a mind map on paper， or with computer tools.

创建思维导图。思维导图是创建的帮助你直观地组织信息的图表或图片。它们有助于显示信息片段之间的关系，以便你更好地了解不同概念或数据组之间的联系。通过更好地理解不同的观点之间是如何联系在一起的，你可以更好地记住它们，并在测试时回忆起来。

要将主题放在思维导图的中心，并用分支连接添加相关信息。

你可以在纸上或者用计算机工具创建思维导图。
