　　Our village carpenter(木匠)，John Hill，came one day and made a dining table for my wife．He made it just the right size to fill the space between the two windows．When I got home that evening，John was drinking a cup of tea and writing out his bill(账单)for the job．My wife said to me，quietly，“That's his sixth cup of tea today．”But she said，in a loud voice，

　　“It's a beautiful table，dear．Isn't it？”

　　“I'll decide about that when I see the bill．”I said．

　　“Yes，”I said．“I'm glad it's only the 10th of November．”

　　“Me，too．”Said John．“You wait—it'll be a lot colder by the end of the month．”

　　“Yes．Colder—and more expensive！Dining tables will be $ 20 more expensive on November 30th，won't they，John？”

　　John looked hard at me for half a minute．Was there a little smile in his two blue eyes？I gave his bill back to him．

　　“If it isn't too much trouble，John，”I said，“please add(加)it up again．You can forget the date棥?/P>

　　According to a new Ministry of Education survey, students’ safety has become a big problem．Nearly 50 percent of students say they are worried about robbery(抢劫)on the way to and from school．Now in many big cities in China, some schools have taught an unusual lesson：self-protection(自我保护)．Students like this lesson as there are no exams or boring classes．And they can learn how to save lives and know how to stop danger before it really happens．

　　Chen Haoyu, a teacher at Beijing No．25 Middle School and a self-protection expert(专家)，gives young students advice on how to deal with danger．

　　If you are robbed(抢劫), keep calm．If you can’t cry for help or run away, give the robber your money．Try to remember what the robber looks like and tell the police．

　　If it is raining hard and there is lightning(闪电), don’t stay in high places and keep away from trees．

　　When there is a fire, get away as fast as you can．Put wet things on your body and try to find an exit(出口)．Do not take the lift!

阅读短文，根据要求完成下面各小题。

　　For those of us who are studying at school, the time of exams is very stressful and difficult．Some people find exam times so bad that they become ill, because they are afraid of failing; they are afraid of letting their parents and family down．If exams are really making you ill or worried, don’t hide your feelings．Talk to someone about it．Maybe you can speak to a friend, or someone in your family, or teachers at your place of study．If one person doesn’t help you, ask someone else．

　　How to get through exams?Here are some advice：

　　Ask a teacher or tutor about how to review your lessons, and exam skills－how to work when you are in an exam．

　　Take short rests during your time of work．If your mind is tired, it will not remember well．

　　Plan your work：study at times when you know you will work at your best．

　　Get enough sleep, and eat healthy food．

　　You need exercise to work well．Walk, run, play sport－whatever you enjoy．

　　Stop thinking about the future and failing．

　　If you feel ill, talk to someone about your worries．But don’t be too relaxed!Some stress over exams makes you work hard for them．

　　If it upsets you to talk to your friends about an exam when it is finished, don’t do it!In fact, don’t even think about the exam you have finished．What is done is done．You cannot change what you have written!

　　To this advice, we could add：

　　If you are studying in the evening, don’t go straight to bed．Your mind will still be“going round and round”－thinking too much．Do something else, maybe walk or get exercise．Choose something that will relax you, and make you think of other things．

(一)根据短文内容简要回答问题。

1．Why do some students hate exams?

___________________________________________

2．What should you do if the exam upsets you when it is finished?

___________________________________________

(二)将短文中划线的句子译成汉语。
