15.The key to reducing test anxiety is writing.According to a recent report in the journal Science,taking a few minutes before an exam to write about all those fears could help students perform better.
The study was conducted by Professor Sian L.Beilock,from the University of Chicago,and his graduate student Gcrardo Ramirez.
First,the researchers asked 20college students to take a maths test to get a base-lined score.Next,they told the students that they could get a monetary award if they got a good score,and that they were being videotaped.
Before beginning the main test,the researchers asked one group of students to spend 10minutes writing down their anxieties about the test,while the other group sat quietly.Both groups then took the same exam.
The researchers found that students who sat quietly did 12% worse than they had on the pre-test,and the ones who wrote about their anxieties improved their scores by 5%.
Writing enables students to feel refreshed when facing challenging questions on the examination.However,experts also warn that such a change will not cause students to become any smarter.It can only make them become more relaxed and focused.

•You will make your brain power better.
This shouldn't come as a shock,but studies suggest reading makes you smart.Unlike watching television,which requires no thought process,reading is an active learning experience that will keep your mind sharp.
•You will increase your chances of success.
The more books you read,the more knowledge you will have,the more ways and resources your brain will store,the more likely you will succeed.
•You will have things to talk about at parties.
Reading more books will enable you to say the sentence,"Did you know …?"more often,making it easier to start conversations with strangers.
•You will enlarge your vocabulary.
The more words you're able to use,the better you will become at expressing your thoughts and feelings.I couldn't imagine how I would write articles like this if I didn't actively aim to enlarge my vocabulary,because using the same few words to express myself would get boring.
•You will enjoy a good night's sleep.
Your mobile phone or TV can make it difficult for you to get a good night's sleep,if you do so late at night.You would be wise to cut off all electronics at least an hour before bed,and replace that with a good book,which is a much better choice.
The books can change your life.I firmly believe that if it wasn't for books,I wouldn't have achieved in my life; nor would I have the knowledge,imagination or creativity.I hope these reasons to read more books encourage you to unlock your power of reading.
| The more books you read,the better your life will be. | |

Are you bored with your daily life?Here are some things you should try before you are 18,because (56)after that it's too late.
Learn to swim:
Seriously,this is so important that it can save your life.If you can't swim well,you (57)won't be able to do water sports like water-skiing,surfing and diving.Even taking a boat trip will be(58)dangerous for you.Make sure you do it.
Try at least one kind of team sport.
(59)Being a good team player is an important skill in life.You can't just think of (60)yourself,but have to work (61)well with other people.Other advantages of team sports like basketball,football and baseball are that they keep you fit and healthy,and they are also great fun.Teams usually have a good social life too-you'll go to lots of parties and make many friends.
Collect something:
One of the best (62)hobbies for under-18s is collecting things.You could collect kinds of stamps,or you could collect things that make you (63)remember what you have done,(64)like cinema tickets for films you have seen or emails from friends.The best way to collect is to have a special album to put your(65)collection in and to write what each thing means to you.That way you won't forget.
