Original:

Well, I definitely prefer to study in library because I firmly believe that the atmosphere in the library will help me to improve my study efficiency. There was a time when I hurt my leg so I can't go to the library and instead have to stay in the dormitory to do my homework. However, I just feel sleepy and can't focus on the study. Then I end up laying on my bed and playing some computer games. That's totally a waste of my time. I feel so regret but I just can't focus on it. So I think library is just a good place for study. Library is just a place for a sleepy.

Revised:

I definitely prefer to study in a library because I firmly believe that the atmosphere there helps improve my study efficiency. One supporting example is when I hurt my leg and couldn't go to the library, forcing me to stay in my dormitory to complete my homework. However, I found it difficult to focus and felt sleepy, leading me to waste time playing computer games instead of studying. Another example is that libraries provide a quiet environment with fewer distractions compared to studying at home or in dormitories. This allows me to concentrate better on my work and achieve better results. In conclusion, I believe that the library is the most conducive place for studying due to its atmosphere and lack of distractions.
