depending on my personal experience and emotional preference, i find that self-study is an extremely important skill for those who want to learn new things.the reasons are as following.
first, self-study is an effective way to broaden our horizon and extend our knowledge.we can arrange our time and adjust our process flexibly according to our own concrete situation. for example, as college students, we can use some of our leisure time everyday to learn other subjects by self-study in addition to our major knowledge. at the same time, we also can extend our major knowledge by self-study of other subjects.
second, self-study is a process to develop our ability of thinking and management. self-study is a process that we gain knowledge or skills by our personal effort without others’ instruments. therefore, in this process, we need to make choices by ourselves, arrange and control time and process by ourselves, think about all kinds of questions by ourselves and find out the solution about different problems by ourselves. in brief, self-study is all about us basically.
finally, self-study is a method to keep learning. as the saying goes, “it is never too old to learn.” and our school life will come to an end some day and only through self-study can we keep ourselves learning all the time. thus, all of us need to form the habit of self-study so that we can make a progress everyday.
in a word, self-study is essential and necessary. keep studying something new everyday and you will find yourself improving a lot some day.

根据个人经验和情感偏好，我认为自学对于一个想要学新东西的人来说是一项极为重要的技能。理由如下。
首先，自学是我们拓宽眼界，增长知识的一个有效途径。我们可以根据我们自己的具体情况自由地安排时间以及调整进度。比如作为一个大学生，我们可以每天利用一些空闲时间来自学除了专业知识以外的其他学科，与此同时，通过自学其他学科，我们还可以拓宽我们的专业知识。
其次，自学是培养我们思维能力和管理能力的一个过程。自学就是我们在没有他人指导，通过个人努力获得知识或技能的过程。因此，在这个过程中，我们需要自己做选择，自己安排和控制时间，自己思考各种各样的问题以及自己找出不同问题的解决办法。总之，自学基本上都是关于我们自己的。
最后，自学是保持学习的一种方法。正如俗话所说：“活到老，学到老”。我们的学校生活总有一天会结束，只有通过自学我们才能一直保持学习。因此我们都需要形成自学的习惯，这样我们才能每天都有所进步。
总之，自学是很重要的，而且是必需的。每天保持学一点新东西，总有一天你会发现自己进步了很多。
