_____________________. Her personal lifePractising Students in your class are different from one another in many ways. You all have different personalities, abilities and physical appearance. In other aspects you have a lot in common. Certainly you are the same age and same nationality, and you probably have some similar hobbies and interests. But do you know that although you are studying the same subjects, you might be learning them in different ways.
What will probably be talked about in the following paragraph? (Answer it within 5 words)
______________________.Different ways of learningPractising It is a bad practice to grow the same crop in a field year after year. If the crop is changed, the land will suffer less because it is treated and used in different ways. Different plants have different effects on the soil. Therefore a change of crop will do less harm than the growing of the same crop year after year and a regular change to grass will do good to the soil. Much will therefore be gained if different crops are grown one after another, a method known as the rotation(轮作) of crops.
It is most likely that the writer will go on to ___________________________ in the paragraph following the above passage.
