प्रश्न
Do you have fun playing/studying with your friends?
उत्तर
Yes, I always like playing and studying with my pals. I cannot fathom playing or studying without my companions. I prefer to study in groups because it allows me to learn faster and remember more easily. Our friend group reminds one another about study times and deadlines. We ask our friends questions regarding the course, which we may not have comprehended. It can improve critical thinking, idea generation, and creative problem-solving. A study group can help us stay on track. I exchange notes with my buddies to find out what information they believe is most significant. Sharing these intimate details would undoubtedly make us better friends.
