Mesero: Bueno, tenemos Expresso, Cappuccino, Macchiato, Café Turco y Long Black. También ofrecemos café descafeinado a nuestros clientes.
Cliente: Quiero dos tazas de expreso descafeinado con poca grasa, crema batida y poca azúcar.

Different students learn better in different ways, and it's important to find a way to study that works best for you. Here are some things that you can try to help you study better.

Make a plan
Decide when, where and for how long you are going to study. If you decide what you need to get done every time you study, then it will be easier to achieve your goals. Also, if you do smaller amounts of work regularly, you won't have the stress of needing to cram everything just before an important exam.

Test yourself on what you've learned
After you read something, you should test yourself on it. And instead of just doing it once, do it often. Try to test yourself days and weeks after you first learn something to make sure you really remember it. You can also work with a friend to test each other.

Take a break
Research has shown that taking breaks can help you work or study better. A study by the company DeskTime found that the most productive people work for about 52 minutes at a time, then take a 17-minute break in between. So when making your study plan, don't forget to include breaks in it.

Stay healthy
Getting exercise and sleeping well can actually help you study. Research has found that regular exercise can improve both memory and thinking skills, while sleeping helps the brain save new information.

Easy Ways to Study More Effectively

Some animals have been known to use tools such as sticks, rocks and even bait to hunt for food. And humpback whales have been found using their own unique tool to hunt — bubbles.

A study published in Royal Society Open Science in August observed the hunting behaviors of more than 70 humpback whales in Stephens Passage in southeast Alaska, documenting how the whales blow bubbles to catch more prey.

Humpback whales hunt for krill — small, shrimp-like creatures that are around the same size as a paperclip, and which swim in swarms.

Whales can take in large amounts of krill in one mouthful. And to make this easier, humpback whales trap swarms of krill in "bubble nets" before feeding on them.

The whales create these "nets" by releasing air from their blowhole as they swim in circles below the surface of the water. The bubbles rise in a spiral pattern, which, from above the water's surface, looks more like artwork than a tool for hunting.

The rising bubbles create "curtains" of air around the krill that they are reluctant to swim through, although researchers aren't yet sure why this is. The whales then swim up through the "net" with an open mouth to eat the trapped krill.

The study data showed that as a whale swam in tighter circles and the "net" got smaller, the krill caught inside became, on average, more than seven times denser. This allowed the whales to catch more krill in a single mouthful.

A whale doesn't have to move very fast to create a net or eat trapped krill, allowing it to get more food without using any more energy.

While not many other animals create their own tools to catch prey like the humpback whale, there are examples of animals using other tools to hunt.

For example, chimpanzees have been observed using sticks to dig for bugs, while sea otters use rocks to open mussels. Certain species of heron have even been found to use food as bait to attract fish.

Humpback Whales Use Bubbles to Hunt

ピーヒャララ。
陽が しずんだころ、歓迎のうたげが はじまりました。
ヨナヨナが『森』の住人たちを説得し、カンパネラを むかえいれて くれたのです。
たいこのリズムで おどり、笛や弦楽器の音色に のせて うたいます。
シカの親子が顔を出し、ほかの どうぶつたちも 陽気な音楽に酔い、とても心地よさそうです。

うたげが いちだんらくすると、ヨナヨナは 大きな木の根に 腰を おろし、
かばんから アンモナイトの殻を とりだしました。
「それは何だい？」
カンパネラの質問に、ヨナヨナが こたえます。
「アンモナイトのオルゴール。この森の人間なら だれでも 持ってるわ」
殻についているハンドルを まわすと、殻から 音楽が ながれてきました。
それは いままで聴いたことのない、やさしい音色でした。

＊ピーヒャララ...Onomatopoeic Word of whistle, flute.
