6. Experience Expert My personal experience of learning is that active study is learning, and passive study is not learning. By Zou Cong

7. Passive Study= “ you can learn nothing ”  When I was the first year in middle school, I just waited that my teachers told me what I should do and what I should learn. After the first year, I looked back what I have learned, and I found I had learnt nothing but teachers ’ demand. When I waited teachers ’ demand, I did not desire to obtain any knowledge. Hence, the words in my text book were only printing ink, and it was never becoming my knowledge. Passive study is “ you can learn nothing ”, so I think it can never be learning.

8. Active Study= ” learning ”  In the rest two year, I studied actively in middle school. When I took myself into studying, I found happy and fun to learn. It was becoming a nice cycle--- from happy learning to actively learning. And then, I made a great progress, and I achieved the enrolment of a great high school in my hometown. To sum up, learning is that I can try my best to earn knowledge, at the same time, I can also feel the happiness, which was brought by knowledge.
