Original:

Well, for me, I'd like to receive text messages from others. For the first reason, that I'm a student majoring in mathematics, so I need a clear environment to learn these complex theories and contexts, so text information may be better. For the second reason, I often learn in the library, so the people here need a clear environment, so maybe a phone call is not a better choice for me.

Revised:

In my opinion, I prefer receiving text messages when seeking information. Firstly, as a mathematics student, I require a quiet atmosphere to comprehend intricate theories and concepts; thus, written communication is more suitable. Secondly, I frequently study in the library where maintaining silence is crucial for everyone's concentration; therefore, phone calls may not be the most appropriate option for me.
