  For most students, the time of exams is very stressful and difficult. Some people find exam time so bad that they become ill, because they are afraid of failing; they are afraid of letting their parents and families down. If exams are really making you ill or worried, don’t hide your feelings. Talk to someone about it. If one person doesn’t help you, ask someone else.

  How to get through exams? Here are some top tips by educational psychologists(教育心理学家):

·  Ask a teacher or tutor about how to revise, and exam skills——how to work when you are in an exam.

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

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

·  Get enough sleep, and eat healthy food.

·  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(扰乱) 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 would add:

  If you are studying the evening, don’t go straight to bed afterwards. 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.

In 1896, the first modem Olympic Games was held in Athens, Greece. Since then many countries have successfully held the Olympics, such as England, France, Germany, Canada, the USA, Spain and Australia. After more than a century the Games returns to its hometown this year.

When people hold the Olympic Games, they always make an emblem (会徽). The emblem of the Athens Olympic Games this year is a white circle of olive branches in the sky.

Now Athens is developing a spirit of peace(和平). An officer said, “while in Athens, the world should be at peace. We hope the peace is not just for a short time. We would like the message from the Athens Games to help countries come together and solve their problems.”

Four years later, the Olympic Games will be held in China. And China has already made a seal as the emblem of the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games. The emblem has a single Chinese character on a red seal and means “Chinese seal-dancing Beijing.” Below it, there are the words “Beijing 2008”.The character in the emblem is “Jing”. It means “capital” of China and it is also like a runner or a dancer. The running figure(人形) of the emblem shows the spirit of the Olympics- faster, higher and stronger.

Are you looking for a good book to read? Do you need information about middle schools in the United States? Would you like to read newspapers and magazines from all over the country? Do you need a quiet place to study? Did you answer “yes” to any of these questions? Then you should visit “the information place” —— your local(本地的) library.

A library is a place to find almost any book. In it there are all kinds of books, but there are also pictures, papers, magazines and maps. A library is a source(源泉) of information. Students go to libraries to study and write homework. There are many different library services(服务). In children’s libraries there are many interesting picture books. If you like music, you can listen to your favorite CDs in music libraries.

Long ago, however, a library had only books. And there were so few books in it that no one could take them out of the library. After the printing machine was invented(发明), books could be made faster and libraries got more books.

To borrow a book to take home today, a person just needs a library card. The librarian prints the card with the date by which the book must be returned to the library. If the books are returned late, the person must usually pay money for having broken the rule.

Teacher, let me have your portrait(画像).
