英文故事
The Night Before the Test
Tom had procrastinated for weeks and found himself cramming for the history test the night before. Determined to absorb as much information as possible, he surrounded himself with textbooks and notes.
As the clock ticked away, Tom crammed dates, events, and names into his memory. It was a stressful night, but he felt a sense of accomplishment as he walked into the exam room the next day.
The experience taught Tom the importance of consistent study habits over cramming. Although he did well on the test, he vowed to avoid last-minute cramming in the future and adopted a more organized approach to studying.*
