    Picture 2: Answers
    As comfortable and tempting as it may seem, studying in bed, on the sofa or on the floor is bad for your back. Bad postures can damage your back and cause back, head and neck pain if they are maintained for a period of time. Studying in bed is a bad habit. You should instead study at a desk or table with a proper, comfortable chair.

    Picture 6: Answers
    The previous picture represents a bad habit. There are too many distractions on the study area: mobile phones, food, drinks and other people. On the desk there should only be the essential objects to study, anything else you should put away. Keep your study area clean and spacious.
