1.Do you write notes in pencil in your course book and revise them for tests? (Ты делаешь пометки карандашом в учебнике и просматриваешь их перед тестами?) Yes, I do 2.Do you try talking to a partner during the school breaks and after classes only in English? (Ты пытаешься разговаривать с собеседником только по-английски во время перемен или после занятий?). Yes, I am trying to do so, but it's quite difficult for me. 3.Do you revise the new words every day? (Ты повторяешь новые слова каждый день?) No, sometimes I don't have enough time. 4.Do you only work hard the few days before an exam? (Ты усердно учись только за несколько дней до экзамена?) No, I don't. I always do my homework and learn new material. 5.Do you ever help your group mates if they don’t understand anything? (Ты когда-нибудь одноклассникам если им что-то было непонятно?) Yes, I do, if they ask me. 6.Do you regularly make a list of your common mistakes? (Ты постоянно делаешь список своих наиболее частых ошибок?) Yes, I do. I make notes in my copybooks. 7.Are you sure you know how to use your dictionary? (Ты уверен что знаешь как использовать твой словарь?) Yes I do. I read the introduction (введение). 8.Do you study only the material that was given at the lesson,nothing else? (ты учишь только материал, который дается на уроке и больше ничего?) No, I don't. If the theme is difficult I try to find extra material in the Internet or in books. 9.Do you have special time or special day for studying? (У тебя есть специально выделенное время для занятий или отдельный день для обучения?) I combine these methods. I try to do my homework after classes, and to revise the material at weekends. 10.Do you keep a list of useful vocabulary in a special notebook? (Ты хранишь список полезных слов в отдельной тетради?) Yes, I do. And when I find an unknown word I write it down. 11.Do you give yourself tests or study with friends and test each other? (Ты тестируешь себя, или ты учишься с друзьями и вы тестируете друг друга?) Sometimes I test myself, especially when I learn new words. But when I learn new grammar material I ask my friends to study it together, because afterwards we can discuss it. 12.Do you only learn what the teacher tells you to? (Ты учишь только то, что сказал учитель?) No I don't. I try to find out more information about the theme of our lesson. 13.Do you have time only to attend the lessons? Do you have time for anything extra? ( У тебя есть время только для посещения занятий? У тебя есть время для чего-либо дополнительного?) I have some free time after classes and at weekends, but I usually do my homework at this time. 14.Do you write everything you know on your hand before you go into the exam? (Ты пишешь все, что знаешь на руке перед тем как идти на экзамен?). No, I don't. I think it's unfair and useless to write cribs (шпоры). 15.Do you think that passing or failing an exam is a matter of luck? (Ты думаешь что сдача экзамена или провал на экзамене зависит от удачи?). To my mind it depends on knowledge and a little bit of good luck.
