（A）
It is easier to go downhill than to climb uphill. So it is easier to fall into bad habits than into good ones. Bad habits do not come suddenly（突然）. They come little by little without one being aware of their danger. School boys first pick up little bad habits in school and on the street. When they can’t write their lessons, they copy from their schoolmates. If they see bigger boys smoking, they also want to learn to smoke. If they see their friends gambling they want to gamble. When they get bigger, the habits become stronger and stronger so that they can no longer get rid of them. From copying they learn to steal, from gambling, they learn to cheat. At last they become suspected by everybody. How necessary it is that we get rid of the bad habits in the beginning!

doesn’t help a lot, because a student must have enough sleep, enough food, enough rest and exercise. Every day you need go to out for a walk or visit some friends or some nice places. That’s good for you to study. Then when you return to your studies, you’ll learn more and better.
Psychologists have found that learning takes place in the following way. Here let’s take English learning for example. First you make a lot of progress and you feel happy. Then your language study seems to stay the same. So you think you’re learning nothing and you may give up（放弃）. It will be a long time before your language study again takes another big jump. So, if you get enough sleep, food, rest and exercise, studying English can be very effective and interesting. Don’t give up along the way. Learn slowly, and you’re sure to get a good result.
