Work Your Mind

Here’s something to think about the next time you ask your teacher for help: struggling with schoolwork on your own can help you learn. According to a recent study, the more you struggle while you are learning new information, the better you can remember it later.

This theory might surprise you. When teachers are presenting new information, they often give students lots of help. But a new study shows this may not be the best way to support learning. “Don't be too quick to get help when learning something new,” education expert Manu Kapur told TFK. “Try to work on it yourself even if it means trying different ways.”

Kapur came up with the idea that struggling can lead to better learning. Then he tested it out on students in Singapore. He separated students into two groups. In the first group, students were asked to solve math problems with the teacher’s help. In the second group, students were asked to solve the same problems by helping one another, instead of getting help from the teacher.

With the teacher’s help, students in the first group were able to find the correct answers. Students in the second group did not solve the problems correctly. But they did come up with a lot of good ideas. The students were then tested on what they had learned. The group without any help from a teacher scored much higher than the group who had help. Kapur said working to find the answers helped students understand the process, not just the solution.

Kapur’s advice for kids is to put a lot of effort into learning something new rather than going to your teacher for help. “Simply doing a little work or nothing at all won’t work,” says Kapur. “The struggle needs to be a genuine attempt to figure out or solve a problem in as many ways as possible.”

【分析】

這是一篇説明文，研究表明在學習中學習新知識、遇到難解決的問題時越是努力的思考而不是急於求助於老師是解決難題的最好解決方法，學習知識最重要的是掌握學習課程，而不是簡簡單單地尋求*。

1．細節理解題。根據第一段的struggling with schoolwork on your own can help you learn可知，自己努力思考可以幫助你學習。所以如果你對功課有疑問，你應該自己思考。故選B項。

2．細節理解題。根據第二段Don't be too quick to get help when learning something new,” education expert Manu Kapur told TFK. “Try to work on it yourself even if it means trying different ways.可知，教育專家曼努卡普爾（Manu Kapur）對TFK表示：“學習新事物時，不要太快尋求幫助。“即使這意味着要嘗試不同的方法，也要自己動手。所以曼努卡普爾學習新知識的教育理念是讓學生以不同的方式自學。故選D項。

3．推理判斷題，根據第三段Then he tested it out on students in Singapore. He separated students into two groups. In the first group, students were asked to solve math problems with the teacher’s help. In the second group, students were asked to solve the same problems by helping one another, instead of getting help from the teacher可知，然後他在新加坡的學生身上進行了測試。他把學生分成兩組。在第一組，學生們被要求在老師的幫助下解決數學問題。在第二組，學生被要求通過互相幫助來解決同樣的問題，而不是從老師那裏得到幫助。由此判斷出普爾是通過兩組不同的學生進行比較來*實他的觀點的。故選C項。

4．細節理解題，根據倒數第二段最後一句Kapur said working to find the answers helped students understand the process, not just the solution可知，卡普爾説，努力尋找*有助於學生理解這個過程，而不僅僅是解決*。所以學習知識最重要的是掌握學習課程。故選C項。
