  Here are some tips for taking tests:

  ●  2   It sounds like a no-brainer(不用动脑的事), but if you’re sure of the information, you’ll have less reason to be worried.

  ●Get enough sleep the night before the test.  3   In a scientific study, people who got enough sleep before taking a math test did better than those who stayed up all night studying.

  ●  4   Once you have the test paper in front of you, read over the entire test, checking out how long it is and all the parts that you are expected to complete.This will allow you to estimate how much time you have for each part and ask the teacher any questions.If something seems unclear before you start, don’t worry:ask.

  ●Relax.  5   Of course you can’t get up and move around in the middle of a test, but you can wiggle(扭动)your fingers and toes, take four or five deep breaths, or picture yourself on a beach or some calm place.

High-tech machines have made life easier for millions around the world. However, some people still prefer low-tech ways of doing things. Here’s an example of why this is happening. You can microwave a frozen hamburger in 60 seconds. However, it won’t taste as good as one you cook on the stove. And if you’re in that much of a hurry, you probably won’t take time to toast the bun. High-tech cooking saves time, but it doesn’t make for better-tasting meals.

Most people get their news from high-tech sources like television or the Internet. This has many advantages. For example, electronic news is more up to date than newspapers or magazines. It’s also more exciting to see live and videotaped news events than photographs. However, newspapers and magazines have some important advantages. They give more background and details. They also let you read the parts that are important to you and skip the rest.

Other high-tech timesavers have similar disadvantages. For examples, most people use the phone or e-mail to stay in touch with friends and family members who live in other places. But when you use the Internet or the phone, you don’t always think carefully about what you are saying, and sometimes you forget the important things you want to communicate. Similarly, when you word-process a homework assignment instead of handwriting it, you can check your spelling electronically and put in fancy headings. However, some students are so busy with the computer that they don’t pay enough attention to the actual words they are writing.
