Exercise 3

Solution 1

Solution 2

Result

1 of 1

Pido ayuda cuando no sé hacer algo, planifico también mi tiempo de estudiar.

Step 1

1 of 4

This example asks what things you already do that the article advises.

Step 2

2 of 4

We see that the article states that you should ‘be positive’, ‘say “I can do this” to yourself’, ‘make a fixed schedule to manage your time well’, ‘take 5-10 minute breaks’, ‘know how to ask for help’, take care of yourself by sleeping enough’, and ‘try to avoid emotional stress.’.

Step 3

3 of 4

If, for example, you have a fixed schedule for studying, take regular 5-10 breaks when studying, and sleep enough, this can be your answer. In this case you’ll use the first person conjugations of the verbs establecer (establezco), tomar (tomo), and dormir (duermo).

Result

Tomo descanos de 5 a 10 minutos, establezco un horario fijo para estudiar, y duermo lo suficiente.

Exercise 4

Solution 1

Solution 2

Step 1

1 of 4

This example asks what you think of the advice in the article and if it is easy for you to follow at home.

Step 2

2 of 4

Of all the advice that the article gives, you could say that it is easiest not to study too late and to take care of your books and other supplies. It is hardest to ask for help when you need it at home, because your parents are always busy.

Step 3

3 of 4

For the pieces of advice that seem the easiest to you, you’ll use the third person singular form of the ver ser (es).
