Lots of people stress out about talking in front of the class or getting laughed at if they make a mistake in front of an audience. 【1】 The “stress hormones"that your body produces at times like these can actually help you focus.

But when worry and stress about performing get to be too much, these hormones give people that “red alert(紧急状态)”feeling-the one that causes you to feel cold or sweaty, or get butterflies in your stomach. 2Be prepared. 3 Rehearse(排练)as much as you can and practice in front of others at every opportunity. Most of all, think positively. Tell yourself “I'll be OK" or I can do this" even if you are not 100% sure of it Look after yourself. Before big performances it's easy to let taking care of yourself slip as you spend too much time on rehearsals and practice. 4 Exercise can also help you feel good, and along with sleep and nutrition, is an excellent way of keeping those stress hormones from getting out of control.

Find out what the experts do. You can find books, DVDs, and online information about how to give your best when you perform, depending on what type of performance you're preparing for. 5 Or ask the cast of your school play or your drama or music teacher how they beat stage fright. And if your parents or grandparents ever performed, they may have their own secrets to share.

A. Confidence helps beat stress hormones.

B. The following tips an help you avoid that feeling.

C. You're less likely to freeze up if you're well prepared.

D. You can do this whether you're performing alone or as part of a group.

E. Check out stories about Olympic gymnasts or your favorite star to get their tips.

F. Feeling nervous before a performance is part of your body's way of helping you do your best.

G. You'll look and feel your best if you get enough sleep and eat healthy meals before your performance.

【题目】Watercolor is the oldest paints known. It dates back to the early cave men who discovered they could add lifelike qualities to drawings of animals and other figures on the walls of caves by mixing the natural colors found in the earth with water.

Fresco(壁画), one of the greatest of all art forms, is done with watercolor. It is created by mixing paints and water and applying these to wet plaster(灰泥). Of the thousands of people who stand under Michelangelo's heroic ceiling in the Sistine Chapel, very few know that they are looking at perhaps the greatest watercolor painting in the world.

The invention of oil painting by the Flemish masters in the fifteenth century made fresco painting go down-hill, and for the next several centuries watercolor was used mainly for doing sketches(素描) or as a tool for study. It was not until the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries that English painters put back watercolor as a serious art form. The English have a widely-known love for the outdoors and also small, private pictures. The softness of watercolor had a remarkably strong attraction for them.

The popularity of watercolor continued to grow until in the twentieth century. The United States passed England as the center for watercolor, producing such well-known watercolor artists as Thomas Eakins and Andrew Wyeth.

1What is the passage mainly about?

A. The gradual weakness of fresco painting.

B. Oils having more power or influence over watercolor.

C. The rediscovery of watercolor in England.

D. The start and development of watercolor.

2The first watercolor artists were ______.

A. early cave men

B. Italian fresco artists

C. Flemish masters

D. English artists of the 18th century

3According to the passage, watercolor painting was put back in England because ______.

A. it was easy to use outdoors

B. it was a strong medium

B. it was extremely bright in color

D. it was well suited to popular tastes

How to be more friendly and social

If you tend to be shy, it can feel uncomfortable to put yourself out there socially. 36 You can make the extra effort to be more friendly and open to others, while still keeping your own personality.

37 The key to connecting to other people is showing interest in them. When you’re truly interested in someone else’s thoughts, feelings, experiences, stories, and opinions, they’ ll like you for it. You’ll make far more friends by showing your interest rather than trying to get people interested in you.

Be genuine (真诚的). 38 If you’re just pretending to listen or care, others will pick up on it.

Rather than promoting greater connection, your efforts will likely have the opposite effect. No one likes to be manipulated (摆布). If you’re not actually interested in the other person, then stop trying to connect.

Pay attention. 39 By paying close attention to what they say and how they interact, you’ll quickly get to know them. 40 Don’t ignore the details, such as remembering someone’s preferences, the stories they’ve told you, and what’s going on in their life.

A. Faking (伪装) takes talent.

B. Focus on others, not yourself.

C. Little things go a long way.

D. Getting to know them is the key.

E. Make an effort to truly listen to the other person.

F. Showing interest in others can’t be faked.

G. But you don’t have to be naturally outgoing or the life of the party to make new friends.

【题目】My high school life has been filled with many ups and downs, whether it was social or academic. Even though my current high school was not my first choice, I never regretted attending Southside High School. “Since you have chosen it, then it is the best for you,” said my parents.

Up until the junior year I did not realize my capabilities (能力) as a student. Being in the IB Program, I was told that my junior year would be the toughest in all the years of high school. With this “little” piece of information, I walked into my junior year, scared of my grades. As weeks went by, I started to believe that the junior year was not as hard as everyone had said, but I was wrong. My grades were rapidly declining(下降) and by the end of the first term I had had five Cs in seven of my classes! I could not believe it --- I did not want to believe it. I tried my best to get my grades up myself without any help from anyone, but my pride just made my grades worse. And I had to miss out on one of the most important speech and debate competitions all year: States. I was heartbroken. I realized that I could not survive my junior year on my own, so I had to get help fast.

Once I got a tutor, my grades went from Cs, Ds, and even some Fs, to nothing but As and Bs. I slowly started to gain my confidence back in all of my classes and even myself. By the time the third and fourth quarter came around, I had been on the honor roll twice, and I was receiving awards from speeches and debates, tennis and school.

Southside has taught me to always keep my head up and never give up on myself no matter what life throws at me. I am proud to be a Southside Tiger.

【2】How did the writer feel when she walked into her junior year?

A. Confident. B. Worried

【3】Why was the writer’s study worse and worse?

A. She didn’t work hard enough.

B. She didn’t ask others for help because of pride.

B. She missed many important speeches.

D. No one would like to help her.

【4】What is mainly talked about in Para 3?

A. The writer’s appreciation for her tutor.

B. The writer’s various hobbies.
