【題目】How to Survive Exam Stress

Exam time is one of the most stressful in school, whether it is high school, college or graduate school. Even the best students feel the pressure. The first sign of a problem while preparing for an exam is worry. 1 If we can get rid of worries, or at least control them, then we're in a much better position to do well on our tests. Take the following steps to survive exam stress and increase your overall performance as a result.

2 What causes you anxiety when you are studying? Too much noise? Then move to a quieter place. Delayed work? Catch up with your studies a couple nights before. That way you can save the final night before the exam to review and get a good night of sleep.

The second way to deal with worry is to displace thoughts. Suppose you wake up at three in the morning and you're worried about an exam. What do you do? 3 Doing something productive might allow you to sleep better when you finally do go back to bed.

Another way to displace negative thoughts is to do something physically active. Work out. Take a quick walk or a nice run. 4 For example, I might worry about the exam having surprise questions that I'm not prepared to answer. But I can shove those thoughts aside by reminding myself that I've taken many exams and I've handled surprise questions before.

The third option is to treat the symptoms. Keep things in perspective. Think of one final exam that causes you the most anxiety. Now think of the worst thing that could happen. If you've prepared, then likely the worst grade you could get is a C. And, if you've been applying what we've been talking about, then you'll likely to do no worse than a B. 5

A. How bad is that really?

B. The first is to delete the causes.

C. Another idea is to think positive thoughts.

D. Worry robs us of energy, focus and motivation.

E. How about getting up and studying for an hour?

F. What we should do is to think positively and get rid of it.

G. So just face the result bravely and make an effort to improve your grade.

【答案】

1D

2B

3E

4C

5A

【解析】文章對怎樣化解考試壓力提出了幾條建議。

1D

根據(jù)前后文的句子提到worry(擔(dān)憂),因此這里也是在談?wù)?/span>worry,故選D。

2B

結(jié)合后一句What causes you anxiety when you are studying?(當(dāng)你在學(xué)習(xí)的時候,是什么讓你焦慮?)以及后面的The second---The third---可知,這里是在列舉建議,這一段處于第二段,所以應(yīng)該是第一個建議。故選B。

3E

根據(jù)前面的Suppose you wake up at three in the morning and you're worried about an exam.(假設(shè)你在凌晨三點醒來,你擔(dān)心考試。)What do you do?(你應(yīng)該怎樣做才能讓你回去繼續(xù)睡?)再根據(jù)選項可知,起床學(xué)習(xí)一個小時或許是一個好辦法。故選E。

4C

根據(jù)前文Another way to displace negative thoughts is to do something physically active.(另一種取代消極思想的方法是做一些體力活。)可知,這里談的東西是和消極思想有關(guān)的東西。故選C。

5A

根據(jù)前文you'll likely to do no worse than a B(你可能不會比B更糟。)可知,最后是想表達那真的是有很壞嗎,故答案為A。

Old Uncle was one of the early people who led me to explore pain and suffering, unintentionally and naturally,through stories and giving.He didn’t complain(抱怨)about the hardships he had suffered in life.4 Ten years later as I thought back to the scene,I came to realize that Old Uncle and I shared space,and connected through our spirit.5
