Most students fail to plan their time well in preparation for their examinations. Instead of studying, most of them waste all their time loitering and playing games, while others are glued to television sets till they fall asleep.
However, when it is time for examinations, they think they can use just a few days to study and pass very well. I think many students do not perform well in examinations not because they are academically weak, but because they do not make time to study. I want to encourage my fellow students to take their studies seriously and stop wasting their time on unimportant things. No student, I believe, is daft that even after studying seriously would fail examinations.
We need to study hard as other brilliant students. You can find that we are taking a exam 2 weeks, so we study and prepare the all the exams. Because we have a enough time to read and study so let’s study hard in order to get great point.
LETS STUDY HARD AND GOOD LUCK FOR YOUR ORAL EXAMS!!!

LET’S STUDY HARD!
Should we ban smoking in all public places?
Most people argues that "yes, or concerning the people as a whole’. Banning smoking in public places isn’t just a question of taking away one group’s freedom for the benefit of another; it is something that is in the interest of ‘people as a whole’. It comes down to a decision between the health of a whole nation versus the freedom of a minority.
Arguably by allowing smoking in public places it is the freedom of non-smokers that is being restricted. We choose not to smoke but by going out into a public space this choice is effectively taken away. By smoking in public the smoker is forcing everyone in the vicinity to smoke too, perhaps there should be signs everywhere reading ‘public smoking area only’. For years now non-smokers have had to endure the unpleasant inhaling of stale cigarette smoke or coming home smelling like the inside of a dirty ash tray and for those people that have to work under these conditions, in bars or restaurants, the situation is even more exacerbated, as they have no escape.
Perhaps most significantly is the detrimental affect that passive smoking can have on anyone’s health. Passive smoking has been linked to an endless list of serious health problems ranging from bronchitis and asthma to lung cancer and heart disease and even SIDS (sudden infant death syndrome). According to Cancer Research figures several hundred people each year in the UK die from lung cancer caused by passive smoking. Quite apart from the enormous cost to the NHS, what is even more infuriating is that in the vast majority of cases, illnesses developed through passive smoking might have been avoided. International experience has shown that the best way to rapidly and successfully tackle health risks from second hand smoke is to take action on smoking in public places. A ban would not only improve the lives of us non-smokers but would encourage those causing the problem to help themselves. Areas such as California where smoking in public places has been banned entirely suggest that smoke-free environments reduce both the number of smokers in the population at large and the number of cigarettes they get through.
Parts of America have managed to create an atmosphere where no smoking is the social norm and there seems no reason why Britain shouldn’t be able to achieve the same. Polls have shown that a ban would be supported by as much as 85% of the public so what’s holding us back? Finally, many people would argue that if we ban smoking in public places where will it end and that having no smoking areas in bars and restaurants is enough. But I would just like to leave with you with an anonymous comment I found on the internet, ‘A smoking section in a bar or restaurant is like having a peeing allowed section in a public swimming pool—it spreads! Would you swim there?
