　　A major source of teen stress is school exams, and test anxiety is not uncommon. When you recognize your teen is under stress, how can parents help your teen stay calm before an exam?

　　Be involved. Parents need to be involved in their teen’s work. 　66   What they look for is your patience—to talk, to cry, or simply to sit with them quietly. Communicate openly with your teen. Encourage your teen to express her worries and fears, but don’t let them focus on those fears.

　　Help them get organized. 　67  Together, you and your teen can work out a timetable in which she can study for what she knows will be on the test.

　　Provide a calm setting. Help your teen set up a quiet place to study and protect her privacy. Give them a nutritious diet. It is important for your teen to eat a healthy, balanced diet during exam times to focus and do her best. 　68  If this happens, encourage your teen to eat light meals or sandwiches.

　　　69   Persuade your teenager to get some sleep and/or do something active when she needs a real break from studying. Help your teen balance her time so that she will feel comfortable taking time out from studying to spend time with friends or rest.

An Ofsted (英国教育标准办公室）study reports that teachers are discouraging students who want to leave school and work as apprentices (学徒）in beauty salons (美容中心）or hair dressers.

　　Inspectors questioned 105 young people for a report on apprenticeships published on Wednesday. They found several examples of young people who felt they had been laughed at by their teachers for wanting to progress to work-based learning, particularly in care or hairdressing, rather than stay on at school.

　　Right or wrong, is it any surprise that this is happening? From 2014，the government will measure schools according to the rate of their pupils who go to university. Brian Lightman , general secretary of the Association of School and College Leaders, says the government has already put teachers under “very great pressure to focus on academic subjects”

　　On the other hand, the Education Act 2011，which came into force in November, places schools under a duty to give fair career advice to pupils. This advice must include information on all post-16 education and training choices, including apprenticeships. This doesn’t appear to be happening in several schools, according to Ofsted9S report. Many of the young people the inspectors talked to said the advice they had received on apprenticeships was “unsatisfactory”.

　　Schools were also blamed for lack of work experience courses, which are particularly important for teenagers considering an apprenticeship. They help students decide whether they enjoy a line of work and enable employers to see whether those on work experience have the potential to be hired as apprentices in future years.

　　But there is a good reason why they can’t do this: they’d be unable to adapt to GCSE (英 国齊通中等教育证书）exams if they did. Sometimes, it seems, schools just can’t win.

1.Why do teachers oppose the students’ leaving school and working as apprentices?

A. The government urges teachers to concentrate on academic subjects.

B. The students are only wasting time working as apprentices.

C. Employers are under great pressure of taking GCSE exams.

D. Employers don’t give students chances to work as apprentices

2.Pressure for schools to provide pupils with career advice comes from ______. 

A. Association of School and College Leaders

B. Education Act 2011

C. GCSE exams

D. OFSTED

3.The underlined word “They” in Paragraph 5 refers to _____.

A. schools

B. employers    

C. work experience courses

D. teenagers considering an apprenticeship

4.What does the author think of teachers’ discouraging students working as apprentices?

A. Surprising               B. Understandable

C. Wrong           D. Right
