What Makes Anxiety Happen?
Well, because we can"t outlaw tests, we might as well figure out how to ease test anxiety. Anxiety is a
feeling a person gets when he or she expects something stressful to happen.
1 A kid might think, "What if I forget everything I know?" or"What if the test is too hard?" Too many
thoughts like these don"t leave much room in your mind to concentrate on remembering the answers to the test
questions. People with test anxiety can also feel stressed out by the physical reaction and think things like
"What if I throw up?" or"Oh no, my hands are shaking."
These thoughts can get the person even more upset, making the anxiety even stronger. Now, the person
feels worse and is even more distracted and unable to concentrate.
What Can You Do?
You might be reading this article and saying, "Hey! That sounds just like me!" If so, we"re glad you
recognize that this happens to you. 2 Here are some ways to do that;
☆Ask for help
Talk to your mom or dad, your teacher, or your school guidance counselor (辅导员). Just talking to
someone about test anxiety can make you feel better. Describe what happens to you when you"re taking a test
and these people can help you figure out some solutions. For instance, learning study skills can boost your
test-day confidence.
☆ 3 Pay attention in class. Do your homework.
☆Expect the best 4 Say to yourself,"I studied and I"m ready to do my best."
☆Block bad thoughts Watch out for any negative messages ("I"m no good at taking tests" or"I"m going to
freak out if I get a bad grade"). These thoughts can make anxiety worse and make it harder for you to do well
in the test.
☆Accept mistakes
Everyone makes mistakes and be more forgiving of your own mistakes, especially if you prepared for the
test and are set to do your best.
☆Take care of yourself
You"ll feel your best if you get enough playtime, sleep, and nutritious food. This is important all the time,
but be extra-sure you get all three the day before a test.
☆Breathe better
Did you know that breathing exercises can help calm you down? (Just try not to take in too much air
because it might make you feel dizzy.) Here is how to do it. 5 Do this two to four times and you just might
breathe easier the next time you"re taking a test! |
A. Breathe in slowly and deeply through your nose, and then breathe out slowly through your mouth.
B. Be prepared
C. Take food and nutrition into consideration.
D. Once you have prepared, think positively.
E. Focusing on the bad things that could happen can make a kid feel more worried.
F. He might often think about what would happen to him.
G. Now you can start taking steps to lessen your test anxiety. |

Select the best heading from the list for each paragraph1-5. Use each letter ONLY ONCE.
(There are more headings than paragraphs, so you will not use all the headings. List of headings: |
A. what do people with an intellectual disability need?
B. What is intellectual disability?
C. How do people with an intellectual disability talk?
D. What are the forms of intellectual disability?
E. What causes intellectual disability?
F. How do you talk to a person with an intellectual disability? |
_________ 1. People with intellectual disability form one of the largest single disability groups in a
community. Intellectual disability refers to a general slowness to learn and function within society, and the
identification of intellectual disability is usually based on an assessment of a person"s performance in a variety
of tests. An individual"s level of performance, as assessed, can change with time and circumstances. With
skilled training and opportunity for development, people with intellectual disability have much greater potential
for acquiring skills and for participation in community life than previously had been thought possible.
_________2. In many western societies, five categories of intellectual disability have traditionally been
used in order to indicate the perceived degree of difficulty an individual has with learning. All five may occur
in either children, adolescent or adult, and show as mild, moderate, severe, profound or multiple intellectual
disabilities.
_________ 3. For the majority of intellectual disabilities, there is no identifiable cause but there are some
causes that are well documented. They include: brain damage at birth due to lack of oxygen-prolonged labor
during childbirth; brain damage before birth due to factors such as rubella, drug or diet-related problems;
damage after birth due to illnesses such as encephalitis or accident; hereditary defects in the genes; abnormal
chromosome count resulting in, for example, Down Syndrome.
________ 4. Like everyone else, people with an intellectual disability need a rewarding job, a satisfying
place to live and a good social life. But they may need extra support to achieve these things. Good support
services are based on the principle of normalization-which means enabling people to be part of the community
like everyone else.
________ 5. With the introduction of the intellectually disabled into communities, there is a need to
promote awareness of communication. Although many people may have little experience in talking with an
intellectually disabled person, there are common guidelines that can simplify the interaction. Firstly, it is useful
to remember that people with disabilities have feelings. Speaking in the same friendly manner as you would to
anyone else is also recommended. Being prepared to wait a little longer for replies during a conversation with an
intellectually disabled person would undoubtedly benefit the exchange. |

阅读下面短文并回答问题，然后将答案写到试卷规定的位置上（请注意问题后的字数要求）。 |
[1] Everyone wants something in life, love, money, success...Yet too many people fail to achieve their
goals, and nearly all of them are for the same reason.
[2] It"s true that terrible things do happen to people during their lives, though no fault of their own, which
may make them feel upset. Generally speaking, however, getting what you really want out of life is just a
matter of the following three simple steps.
[3] Firstly, you have to decide what it is you want the most. But do not make a list of wishes; try to focus
on one thing at a time. If you"re not sure about where you want to go, you"d better think it over first and not
hurry to perform.
[4] Secondly, ___________. This will be your map for getting from"where you are now" to "where you
want to go". You know what you want, and what steps you are going to take to get it. For example, if you
want a better job, start with a skills assessment and maybe some extra training. Then you"ll need to sell
yourself and your skills either to your present employer or to a new one.
[5] Other goals will require a bit more thought. Some will really get you lost without a clue of how to get
there. Not to worry, though, books, biographies and such, can be of great help.
[6] The third and final step is to carry it out. Do what you planned. Take the steps you outlined on your
road map and keep going on all the time. If you run into some people who are against you, simply ignore them.
[7] Never give up the goal. Keep pushing. Whatever you do, do not lose heart before you have what you
desire in your hands. Never think that you can"t turn your dream into a reality. |

Let children learn to judge their own work. A child learning to talk does not learn by being corrected all the
time: if corrected too much, he will stop talking. He notices a thousand times a day the difference between the
language he uses and the language those around him use. Bit by bit, he makes the necessary changes to make
his language like other people"s. In the same way, children learning to do all the other things: they learn to do
without being taught to walk, run, climb, whistle, ride a bicycle, compare their own performances with those
of more skilled people, and slowly make the needed changes. But in school we never give a child a chance to
find out his mistakes and correct them for himself. We do it all for him. We act as if we thought that he would
never notice a mistake unless it was pointed out to him, or correct it unless he was made to. Let him work out,
with the help of other children if he wants it, what this word says, what the answer is to that problem, whether
this is a good way of saying or doing this or not.
If it is a matter of right answer, as it may be in mathematics or science, give him the answer book. Let him
correct his own papers. Why should we teachers waste time on such routine work? Our job should be to help
the child when he tells us that he can"t find the way to get the right answer. Let the children learn what all
educated persons must some day learn, how to measure their own understanding, and how to know what they
know or do not know. |
| 1. According to the passage, the best way for children to learn things is by _____. |
A. listening to skilled people"s advice

C. more important than other skills
D. not really important skills |

I"m going to show you how to be a public speaker that everyone wants to hear. Surprisingly most people
are extremely scared of public speaking. I think it really boils down to the fact that most people don"t get it
taught in school or by their parents. I"m going to show you how you can look like a great speaker if you apply
these techniques.
If you really want to be liked by people as a speaker, telling stories is probably the best asset(资源) you can
have. It is a very effective tool of communication that dates back to the cavemen paintings on walls. Human
beings relate to stories they hear. You can use these stories to get a specific feeling out of your audience. You
can tell a story where you emphasize how"heroic" you are and people will feel that way. You can also use a
story to really get people involved in the speech because it is interesting. Throwing facts at people, no matter
how accurate, isn"t going to make people like you as a speaker.
You should definitely have a call to action and a purpose to your speech. You don"t want to end up being a
speaker who just talks about stuff for the sake of talking. There needs to be an underlining purpose for
everything said and a call to action on this purpose. If you"re talking about hurricane relief, you have to have a
purpose of what you"re trying to get across and let people out there know how they can start helping. This is
how to be a public speaker that everyone likes.
Having some visual effects can really make you succeed as a great public speaker. If you"re talking about
poverty in a third world country, a picture is going to have a much bigger impact than any word. |

A. Because they are very nervous when speaking.

C. Because the audience are always laughing at people.
D. Because they don"t get it taught how to be a good speaker. |
| 3. You can tell a story in a speech to _______. |
A. highlight your purpose
B. make your facts accurate
C. get people involved in the story
D. get a specific feeling out of your audience |

The absolute best method that I have found to promote your product or business is to write articles and
post them all over the Internet.
Webmasters and publication editors are always searching for well researched and written articles that are
relevant to their websites or publication themes. This creates a profitable opportunity for you. Editors and
publishers don"t have a strong need for good content. Each issue they publish must be filled with valuable,
usable information that will appeal to their readers or subscribers"(订户) self interest.
By writing and sending articles to the various websites and article directories on the Internet you will
establish yourself as an expert on your topic of business, as well as gain the trust of your readers over time.
As a result, your readers will be eager to buy your products and services or those you recommend to
them. This is a very effective way to make name for yourself online. Articles can also build your link popularity. This is extremely important with search engines. Every time your article is published there should be a link
back to your sales page where the reader can go to get more information. This will help the search engine
ranking of your site. When website owners list your articles on their websites, your business exposure can be
unlimited.
Make sure your article provides information that is really useful to the reader. Make it interesting to read.
Get to the point quickly. Use short paragraphs. If it"s dull and boring, your reader will surely move on.
Make sure you add a resource box at the end of your article. Use your resource box to promote your
business. This is why you"ve written the article. |
