Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the
correct answer to each of the questions .
Successful students often do the followings while studying. First they have an
overview before reading. Next, they look for important information and pay greater attention to
it (which often needs jumping forward or backward to process information). They also relate
important points to one another. Also, they activate and use their prior knowledge. When they
realize that their understanding is not good, they do not wait to change strategies. Last, they can
monitor understanding and take action to correct or “ fix-up” mistakes in comprehension.
Conversely, students with low academic achievement often demonstrate ineffective study
skills. They tend to assume a passive role in learning and rely on others( e.g, teachers, parents)
to monitor their studying. For example, low-achieving students often do not monitor their
understanding of content, they may not be aware of the purpose of studying, and their show little
evidence of looking back, or employing “fix-up” strategies to fix understanding problems.
Students who struggle with learning new information seem to be unaware that they must extend
beyond simply reading the content to understand and remember it. Children with learning
disabilities do not plan and judge the quality off their studying. Their studying may be
disorganized. Students with learning problems face challenges with personal organization as
well. They often have difficulty keeping track of materials and assignments, following
directions, and completing work on time. Unlike good student who employ a variety of study
skills in a flexible yet purposeful manner, low-achieving students use a restricted range of
Trang 4/5 - Mã đề thi 309
 skills. They can not explain why good study strategies are important for learning, and they
tend to use the same, often ineffective, study approach for all learning tasks, ignoring task
content, structure of difficulty.
