In order to study efficiently (高效率地), you need to have a place that is always, and only, used for studying. This should be your own desk in your own room. Your desk should be free from anything that may interrupt (打断) your study, such as photos, letters, newspapers, or a radio. All the things you need for study should be put at your hand: textbooks, notebooks, dictionaries, pens and pencils. On the left of your desk(or on your right if you are left-handed) should be a good lamp (台灯) to light up your work. Because your desk is your own place of study, it should not be used for anything else. Even for reading the newspaper or an important letter, go somewhere else. When you come to your desk, you should think of nothing but your study.
However, your place of study, at home or in the classroom, may sometimes be noisy. Many students, therefore, would like to study in the library. There they are not often interrupted.
The text is meant to explain the importance of a desk.
