编者注：许多人学习的效率低下，因为他们的计划总是一次又一次被打乱，导致他们无法集中精神学习。提高学习效率应该从最大限度利用你的学习时间开始。不要在考试前浪费宝贵的时间！尽可能地利用每一秒钟去学习。
1. Set A Study Goal 设定学习目标
What is it that you’re actually trying to accomplish2？ How will you know if you have done that？ You need to set a goal so you can answer those questions. If you’ve been given a study guide， then your goal could simply be to learn everything on the guide. You’ll know if you’ve achieved it when a friend asks you all the questions and you can answer those questions quickly and completely. Whatever you’re trying to achieve， get it on paper. Don’t stop until you’ve met your goal.
你实际上想要完成的是什么？你怎么知道你是否完成了呢？要回答这些问题，你需要设定一个目标。如果你得到了学习的指南，那么你的目标就是完成学习指南的内容。如果你能迅速而完整地回答你的朋友问你的所有问题，你就能知道自己完成了这个目标。无论你想达到什么目标，都把它列在纸上，然后努力去达成。
2. Set A Timer For 45 Minutes 定时45分钟
You’ll learn more if you study in segments3 with short breaks in between. An ideal length is 45 to 50 minutes on task and 5 to 10 minutes off task between those study times. Forty-five to fifty minutes gives you enough time to dig deep into your studies， and five to ten minute breaks allows you enough time to regroup. Use those short mental breaks to check in with family members， grab a snack， use the restroom or just hop on social media to reconnect with friends. But， once that break is over， get back at it.
如果你分時间段来学习并且每个时间段之间有间隔休息，你能学到更多。理想的安排是学习时长45至50分钟，间隔休息5至10分钟。45到50分钟让你有足够的时间深入学习，5到10分钟的休息让你有足够的时间重新整理思路。你可以利用这些短暂的心理放松时间与家人碰个头，吃点零食，去一下洗手间，或者在社交媒体上与朋友们重新联系一下。但是，一旦休息结束就回去学习吧。
3. Shut Off Your Phone 关掉手机
You do not need to be on call when you are studying. Shut off your phone so you’re not tempted to respond to that text or call. Remember that you will be getting a short break in just forty-five minutes and you can check your voicemail and texts then. You are worth the time you’ll be devoting to this task and nothing else is as important at this very moment.
学习时间里你不需要随时接电话。关掉你的手机，这样你就不会对短信或电话作出回应。请记住，在学习45分钟后你将得到短暂的休息，那个时候你可以查看你的语音信箱和短信。花时间投入到学习任务中是值得的，此时此刻，没有什么比这更重要的了。
4. Put Up A “Do Not Disturb” Sign 挂上“请勿打扰”的牌子
Maintaining4 laser-like focus during a study session is very important to your success. So， lock yourself in your room and put a“Do Not Disturb” sign on your door. It will make your friends or family think twice before asking about dinner or inviting you to watch a movie.
在学习过程中保持激光般的专注对于你的成功是非常重要的。所以，把自己锁在房间里，在门上挂一个“请勿打扰”的牌子吧。它会让你的朋友或家人在喊你吃饭或者邀请你看电影之前三思。
5. Sit At A Desk Or Table 坐在桌子边学习 At the beginning of your study session， you should be seated at a table or desk with your material in front of you. Find all your notes and open up your book. You’ll be taking notes， un-derlining， and reading effectively during study time， and these tasks are most easily accomplished at a desk.
開始学习的时候，你应该坐到桌子或书桌前，把学习材料摆在面前。找到你所有的笔记，然后打开你的书。你会在学习时记笔记、标记要点和高效阅读，这些任务在书桌前最容易完成。
6. Attack The Content In Several Ways 通过不同的方式学习
To really learn something， not just cram it in for the test， you need to go after the content using a few different ways. Try reading the chapter silently， then summarizing it aloud. Or draw little pictures related to the content next to important ideas. Sing a song to remember dates or long lists. If you mix up the way you learn， you’ll keep deeply in mind what you need to learn.
要想真正学到一些东西，而不是仅只为了考试而死记硬背，你需要通过不同方式来学习内容。你可以默读这一章，然后大声地总结出来。或者在重要的观点旁画一些与内容相关的小图。你还可以唱一首歌来记住日期或列出的项。如果混合使用不同的学习方式，你就能牢牢记住你要学的东西。
7. Break Down Large Topics And Summarize The Key Facts and Ideas 拆分大块的内容并总结关键内容
You can get really overwhelmed if you have a ton of content to learn， but if you start with just one small piece， and focus solely on mastering that one part， you won’t feel quite as stressed. When you have finished studying， write out 10 to 20 key ideas or important facts you need to remember. Put everything into your own words， then double-check your book or notes to ensure you’ve gotten them correct. Doing this at the end of your study session will help cement5 the most important facts in your head.
如果你有大量的内容要学习，你可能会不知所措，但是如果你只从一小块内容开始，只专注于掌握其中的一部分，你就不会感到有压力。当完成了学习时，写出你需要记住的10至20个关键内容或重要的事实。把所有的东西都用自己的话来写，然后仔细对照你的书或笔记检查，以确保它们是正确的。在你的学习时段结束时，这样做将帮助你巩固脑海中最重要的内容。
