Guide book: Examination

(This part is written by Dasha Zvereva)

Exams are very important in your university life. It's always very difficult and nervous to pass them. There are a lot of variants of revising to exams and every student has its own approach. And we want to demonstrate some tips with an example.

There are some tips that students use for passing exams.

Student 1: I make notes, it's the best way to remember everything. Also I record lectures and listen to them before my exams. And it's better to break study time into small parts. If there are a lot of themes, turn their headings into questions for your examination. And I always write with my pen, I mean, it's better than tapping the text on your computer. And avoid cramming, it's better to understand the material.

Before an exam I should feel comfortable, so I try to sleep well. Then it's very important to eat a healthy breakfast. It helps me to stay focused.

When your peers are answering, listen carefully and try to avoid their mistakes. Be careful with your time, it's important.

Student 2:

Make cheat sheets. It’ll be your choice to take them  on the exam or not. However, it’s a definitely good way for revising, summing up main information. It is necessary for you to write there down some key points.

As usual, everyone is worried before exams. Here are some tips for you to keep calm. Avoid people who are panicking, because apparently you’ll be anxious as well. Be dressed in your most comfortable and smart  clothes. Don’t take your mobile phone on the exam, as having it somewhere in your pocket  you’ll be worrying more rather than you without him. Believe in yourself. You’re smart. You’ve done everything you could do. Think positively. And don’t rely on others.

    Dasha,

    what source of information have you used and how exactly did you you use it? I'm sorry it seems to be plagiarised

    Also the word limit for this task was 300 words. Your post is much-much shorter than that and actually it seems unfinished.

    Things to consider:

    every student has *its own approach: "its" is used with inanimate objects; "students" grammatically refers to animate objects

    WW: every student has its own approach "student" grammatically is an animate objects; "IT" refers to inanimate objects

    WW: check the difference b/w the words "theme" and "topic"

      Katya, thanks for the information but I have a question about its source. What is it? You should have indicated it. I hope you have an idea why, don't you?

Essay:ne language spoken worldwide would lead to better international relations

-
There are a lot of languages in the world. And it’s impossible to learn all of them. Some people think that it would be convenient to have one international language. Others are strongly disagree. So here are some points which are for and against. If we would have one common language, firstly, it would be easy to understand each other. People would communicate with neighbors from another countries. So it would be easier to carry on negotiations in politics,  be successful in commerce and just make friends all around the world.  Secondly, culture and mentality depends on the language. Actually, not particularly on the language but on people’s relationship. So people would have a lot of in common and would understand mentality of each other, if there were one language. Finally, it takes a lot of time to learn in language, actually, a while life. Humanity would have more time to learn more important  things for our existence, if we had one language. Some p...

Summary

-
Hello, everyone!  I read two articles on Guardian and then chose the one about the war, because I found the situation that was discussed in the article very important. So there is a short summary of the article I've read. The article " Britain’s direct complicity in the war in Yemen must end " by Rowan Williams is devoted to the discussion of the problems of war. He is sure that war is a thing that is related to past. It doesn't take place in the current world.  First, the author draws our attention to the fact that it includes two main problems: financial and moral. UK spend a lot of money on arms. He also emphasizes that now, especially before Christmas, war is the last thing people should take attention to. Further, the auhor suggests to decide this situation together. Finally, he noticed that we need to go to the root of the problem and act promptly and effectively.

. A reflective note

-
The second semester of our course was no less interesting than the first one. During this time we have written really important works that have helped me to develop my writing skills. It was very useful to repeat the theme of the thesis statement. I think my group mates now have a good understanding of how to write essays and other types of texts. I really liked the assignment where we had to write our stories. Now at the University we do not receive such tasks, so it was interesting to try ourselves as writers. If to say that was not very useful, as for me it was the discussion of our works in the group. I think the work should be more individual, and discussing takes a lot of time. At the beginning of the semester, I also enjoyed writing some texts for the guide book assignment. I am also happy that our lessons were not limited to the discussion of writing an essay, and we still discussed the problems of the modern world. I hope that my group mates also liked this course, and they l...
