【题目】Tests can be stressful even for the most prepared students，and，unfortunately，test anxiety can actually have a negative impact on your performance．（Just having that knowledge adds to the stress，doesn’t it?）Well，the following tips can help you get through your next test with much greater ease—and likely more success!

Get Enough Sleep

Getting 6 hours of less can put you into what’s called a sleep deficit，or lack of sufficient sleep，which can actually make you less sharp mentally and thus negatively affect your performance on tests，even if you spent those missed hours of sleep studying．So it’s very important for you to get all of your studying done so you can get a good night of sleep before your big day．

Study Smarter

Being organized with your studies can help you keep from pulling all-nighters to get all of your studying in and blowing the test because you’re exhausted．How do you study ‘smarter’? Make a list of the most important things you need to learn，in order of importance，and hit the items at the top of the list first．That way，if you run out of time，you’re mostly covered．Make a list of all the work you have to do，estimate how much time each item will take，and compare that with the amount of hours you have available；this will tell you if you can carefully read or just skim，how many times you can afford to revise papers，and other ways to pace yourself so you can get everything done．If you’re pressed for time，it’s important to learn to let go of being perfect．Oh，and turn off the TV as much as possible until your tests are behind you．

Visualize（想象）Success

Before you fall asleep each night，it is a great way to visualize yourself taking the tests and doing wonderfully．Detailed visualizations can help you feel like you’re really experiencing something，and visualizing yourself doing well is a way to ‘practice’ success in a way that can actually help you perform better and feel confident．Being confident as you take your exams can keep you from choking because of the stress．Visualizations can also help you to remember facts: you can create detailed scenarios that involve the information you’re trying to remember，and this can help cement the facts in your memory．

Stay Calm

Because stress can impair your memory，it’s important to stay calm before and during tests．While that’s easier said than done，there are several stress relief techniques that can help you calm down quickly whenever you feel overwhelmed．For example，breathing exercise has been shown by research to reduce test anxiety，and can be extremely effective in helping you relax and reverse your stress response in a variety of situations: just take deep breaths，expanding your belly on the inhale，and let the stress come out with your exhales．

【1】According to the passage，which of the following about sleep is true?

D．Less than 6 hours of sleep will lead to your failure in tests．

【题目】I hated dinner parties. But I decided to give them another shot because I’m in London. And my friend Mallery invited me. And because dinner parties in London are very different from those in New York, “I’m having a dinner party” means: “I’m booking a table for 12 at a restaurant and we’ll be sharing the cheque evenly (平均地), no matter what you eat.” In Manhattan there is always someone who leaves before the bill arrives. They’ll throw down cash, half of what they owe, and then people like me, who don’t drink, end up paying even more. But if you try to use the same trick, the hostess will shout: “Where are you going ?” And I cannot say I have somewhere to go because everyone knows I have nowhere to go.

But in London, dinner parties are in people’s homes. Not only that, the guests are an interesting mix. The last time I went to one, the guests were from France, India, Denmark and Nigeria; it was like a gathering at the United Nations. In New York, the mix is less striking. It’s like a gathering at Bloomingdatle’s, a well-known department store.

For New Yorkers, talking about other parts of the world means Brooklyn and Queens in New York. But at Mallery’s, when I said that I had been to Myanmar recently, people knew where it was, while In New York people would think it was a usual club.

【1】What does the word “shot” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?

A. Choice B. Try C. Style D. Goal

【2】What does the writer dislike most about dinner parties in New York?

A. There is a strange mix of people.

B. The restaurants are expensive.

C. The bill is not fairly shared.

D. People have to pay cash.

【3】What does the author think of the parties in London?

A. A bit unusual B. Full of tricks

C. Less costly D. More interesting

【4】What is the author’s opinion of some New Yorkers from her experience?

A. Easy-going. B. Self-centered.

C. Generous. D. Conservative

【题目】The Ministry of Public Security has recently started a nationwide ____speeding，overloading and running red lights.

A．celebration B．conference

C．campaign D．ceremony

【题目】When I left home for college, I sought to escape the limited world of farmers, small towns, and country life. I long for the excitement of the city, for the fast pace that rural life lacked, for adventure beyond the horizon. I dreamed of exploring the city, living within a new culture and landscape, and becoming part of the pulse of an urban jungle.

Yet some of my best times were driving home, leaving the city behind and slipping back into the valley. As city life disappeared and traffic thinned, I could see the faces of the other drivers relax. Then, around a bend in the highway, the grassland of the valley would come into being, offering a view of gentle rolling hills. The land seemed permanent. I felt as if I had stepped back in time.

I took comfort in the stability of the valley. Driving through small farm communities, I imagined the founding families still rooted in their grand homes, generations working the same lands, neighbors remaining neighbors for generations. I allowed familiar farmhouse landmarks to guide me.

Close to home, I often turned off the main highway and took a different, getting familiar farms again and testing my memory. Friends lived in those houses. I had eaten meals and spent time there; I had worked on some of these farms, lending a hand during a peak harvest, helping a family friend for a day or two. The houses and lands looked the same, and I could picture the gentle faces and hear familiar voices as if little had been changed. As I eased into our driveway I’d returned to old ways, becoming a son once again, a child on the family farm. My feelings were honest and real. How I longed for a land where life stood still and my memories could be relived. When I left the farm for college, I could only return as visitor to the valley, a traveler looking for home.

Now the farm is once again my true home. I live in that farmhouse and work the permanent lands. My world may seem unchanged to casual observers, but they are wrong. I know this: if there’s a constant on these farms, it’s the constant of change.

The good observer will recognize the differences. A farmer replants an orchard (果园) with a new variety of peaches. Irrigation is added to block of old grapes, so I imagine the vineyard has a new owner. Occasionally the changes are clearly evident, like a FOR SALE sign. But I need to read the small print in order to make sure that a bank has taken possession of the farm. Most of the changes contain two stories. One is the physical change of the farm, the other involves the people on that land, the human story behind the change.

I’ve been back on the farm for a decade and still haven’t heard all the stories behind the changes around me. But once I add my stories to the landscape, I can call this place my home, a home that continues to evolve and changes as I add more and more of my stories.

A poet returns to the valley and says, “Little has changed in the valley, and how closed–minded you all are!” He comments about the lack of interest in sports, social and environmental issues in the poverty and inequality of our life. He was born and raised here, so he might have the right to criticize and lecture us. Yet he speaks for many who think they know the valley. How differently would others think of us if they knew the stories of a grape harvest in a wet year or a peach without a home?

【4】When he was in college, why was the writer sad when he returned to his family home?

A. He remembered how hard he used to work.
