Deal with exam stress (压力)

It is normal to feel a bit worried about exams, especially if you’re under pressure from school or family. 【1】, and this might influence your sleeping or eating habits. If you have any of these feelings or are worried that exam stress is taking over your life, you are not alone. Here are some things you can do.

Firstly, let your trusted friends and family know if you're having a hard time, so they can support you, encourage you and offer a listening ear. You don't have to go through this alone. Keeping it all in will only make things worse. So don't be afraid to open up.

Secondly, think about all the practical support you need. You are allowed to ask for help. 【2】. They can give you some helpful advice.

【3】. Think about all the things you have achieved so far. It can be helpful to write a list of all the things you like about yourself, and the things other people value about you, too.

If people around you like your parents are putting pressure on you, it can help to tell them what you feel, 【4】. You can also talk to a teacher you trust about the pressure you are under at home.

A．or they will be very angry with you.

B．Tell your teachers about your worries.

C．Exam stress can cause you to feel nervous or blue.

D．let them know that your expectations (预期) are different from theirs.

E．Last but not least, be kind to yourself.

26、You can be proud of yourselves, even if you can only make one or two of these green changes. The goal here is to limit carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases, which are closely connected to the big problem of global-warming (全球变暖).

WAY 1: Bring your own cup to Starbucks. You’ll get a 10-cent discount, and it’s one less paper cup to end up in a dustbin. The store won’t create more waste when they throw away a cup.

WAY 2: Turn off your computer. When in standby mode, your PC is still using energy. Turning off a monitor (显示器) for 40 hours a week may only save $ 5 a month, but it reduces CO2 by 750 pounds.

WAY 3: Reuse plastic bags. Instead of throwing away 100 billion plastic bags a year, try and get a second, third, or tenth use out of them. Better yet, next time you shop, try a reusable bag. The amount of oil it would take to make just 14 plastic bags would run your car for one mile.

WAY 4: Use recycled paper in the bathroom. Most of the toilet paper we use is made from trees found in forests. If every family replaced(替换)one roll of toilet paper with a recycled one, 424,000 trees would still be standing.

WAY 5: Plant a tree. Adding green to your garden is beautiful and earth-pleasing. Just one tree will help make cleaner air and save the environment from 5, 000 pounds of hot carbon dioxide each year.

【1】How many ways are mentioned(提及) in the passage?

A. Two.   B. Three.   C. Four.   D. Five.

【2】What will happen if our PC is turned off when it isn’t in use?

A. It will help to save a large amount of money.

B. It will help to reduce a great deal of CO₂.

C. It will save the amount of oil that runs your car for a mile.

D. It will be like planting 1.7 million acres of new trees.

【3】Which ways suggest recycling or reusing of things?

A. Ways 3 & 4.   B. Ways 2 & 3.

C. Ways 3 & 5.   D. Ways 2 & 4.

【4】How do these ways do good to our environment?

A. They all help reduce the use of energy like electricity.

B. They all cut down the number of the use of paper.

C. They all produce less greenhouse gases as a result.

D. They all help protect our trees and forests.

【5】What is the best title for the passage?

A. Ways to Save Money

B. Ways to Be Earth-Friendly

C. Ways to End Global-Warming

D. Ways to Limit Carbon Dioxide
