2.
- I prefer to sit at the back of the classroom so as to avoid being questioned by teachers. / I prefer to sit in the front row so as to listen more clearly to the teachers.
- I'd rather just listen. That way I don't have to worry about making mistakes. My classmates always want to impress other people by talking all the time. It's not so important to me. If I listen carefully I can learn just as much.
- In addition to the teachers' assignments, I have my own special plan of study. I try to find something more interesting to read and also have some hobbies.
- I seldom think of my progress in learning because I don't know how to assess my study.
- I learn best by doing. I always believe that practice makes perfect.
- I learn best by myself. I think discussing with others is a waste of time. But I will be better off if I can have help from teachers occasionally.

3.From the discussion, we found that most good students prefer to sit in the front row in class. They ask a lot of questions and are fond of discussing with others. And they usually have their own plans. These students are more active learners. They usually are more creative and can have higher academic achievements. But some others prefer to sit at the back of the classroom. They just listen to what the teachers say and have no plan for study. These students are a little more passive and more dependent on teachers.
