What problems do you have with your study？Do you want to improve the way you study？Do you feel nervous before a test？Many students say that a lack of concentration is their biggest problem. It seriously affects their ability to study，so do their test results.　36　

Study Techniques

You should always study in the same place. You shouldnˈt sit in a position that you use for another purpose.　37　Donˈt watch TV while you are studying. Experts warn that your concentration may be reduced by 50 percent if you attempt to study in this way. Always try to have a white wall in front of you，so there is nothing to distract you. Before sitting down to study，gather together all the equipment you need. Apart from your textbooks，pens，pencils and knives，make sure you have a dictionary.

　38　Finish one thing before beginning another. If you need a break，get up and walk around for a few minutes，but try not to telephone a friend or have something to eat.

Test taking Skills

All your hard work will be for nothing if you are too nervous to take your test. Getting plenty of rest is very important. This means：do not study all night before your test！It is a better idea to have a long term study plan. Try to make a timetable for your study which lasts for a few months.

　39　Doing some form of exercise every day will also improve your concentration. Eat healthy food too.

When you arrive in the examination room，find your seat and sit down. Breathe slowly and deeply. Check the time on the clock during the test，but not too often. 40

On Jan. 3, a netizen（网民）nicknamed “Programmer Humor” published a short story on his micro-blog. It said that there was an old lady who swept nearly every inch of his Internet company. When she passed by a programmer, she took a look at the codes on the programmer’s computer and kindly reminded him, “Be careful, the stack is overfilled!”

Certainly, it is a casual and fictitious（虚构的）story made up by the micro-blogger. However, no one would have guessed that the short blog would eventually cause the first great Internet meme（网络快速爆红现象）of 2011 in China. Suddenly, the mysterious “Sweeping Old Lady” is showing up nearly everywhere and reminding professionals of their mistakes. From 8 a. m. on Jan. 5, some netizens collected stories of the “Sweeping Old Lady” and found she had appeared to give advice in 150 kinds of careers. A netizen even said he had met with a similar situation in real life.

Actually, the “Sweeping Old Lady” is not new figure, but is based on the “sweeping monk （和尚）”in Louis Cha’s famous Kung fu novel of “Tian Long Ba Bu”. The “sweeping monk” is an old monk and does the lowest class of work in Shaolin Temple, but he is actually the No. 1 master in the novel both in Kung fu and in the study of Buddhism.

The “Sweeping Old Lady” is also a great modest master. Lots of netizens wish that they could have such a lady beside them to give them precious suggestions at a key time.

Although there may be 1,000 “Sweeping Old Ladies” in 1,000 people’s minds, it cannot prevent the “Sweeping Old Lady” from becoming the most popular figure on the Internet.

“Programmer Humor” said he is just a programmer in the real world and once he saw the story about the “Sweeping Old Lady,” he wrote it down in his micro-blog because it was funny. He never knew who the original writer of the story was and never thought the story could be so popular.
