Some students get so nervous before an exam that they do poorly even if they know the material. Sian Beilock, a psychology (心理学) professor at the University of Chicago, has studied these highly anxious (焦虑的) exam-takers.
“They start worrying about the results. They might even start worrying about whether this exam is going to prevent them from getting into the college they want. And when we worry,it actually uses up attention and memory resources that we could otherwise be using to focus (集中) on the exam.” says Sian Beilock.
The researchers tested the idea on a group of twenty anxious college students. They gave them two short math tests. After the first one, they asked the students to either sit quietly or write about their feelings about the coming second test.
The researchers added to the pressure. They told the students that those who did well on the second exam would get money. They also told them that their performance would affect other students as part of a team effort.
Professor Beilock says those who sat quietly scored an average of 20% worse on the second exam. But the students who had written about their fears improved their performance by an average of 5%.
Next, the researchers used younger students in a biology class. They told them before final exams either to write about their feelings or to think about things not connected to the test.
Professor Beilock says highly anxious students who wrote about their feelings got an average grade of B+,compared with a B-for those who did not.
But what can they do if students do not have a chance to write about their fears immediately before an exam or presentation? Professor Beilock says students can try it themselves at home or in the library and they can still improve their performance.
【1】In which paragraph does the author introduce the background of his study?
A. In the last paragraph. B. In the second paragraph.
C. In the third paragraph. D. In the first paragraph.
【2】According to Sian Beilock, if you want to succeed in an exam, you should ________.
A. focus your attention on the exam B. be as serious as you can about the exam
C. set clear study goals and keep them D. make a careful preparation for the exam
【3】The underlined word “it” in the last paragraph means “_______”.
A. looking for a chance B. preparing for the exam
C. writing about the feelings D. taking the exam
【4】We can infer (推断) from the study that students who sit quietly before the exam ______.
A. are more likely to get better exam results
B. worry more about the exam in their mind
C. have a positive attitude towards exam results
D. have a strong will to be successful in the exam

Miguel gathered his guitar and all the Ernesto de la Cruz albums he could carry and rushed down from the rooftop. His family surrounded him when he reached the yard.
Abuelita’s eyes darted from the guitar to the albums. “What is all this?” she said. “You keep secrets from your own family?”
“It’s all that time he spends in the plaza,” Tio Berto said.
“Fills his head with crazy fantasies,” Tia Gloria added.
“It’s not a fantasy (幻想)!” Miguel protested. He handed his father the old photograph of Mama Imelda, Coco, and the unidentified (未知身份的) man and pointed to the guitar. “That man was Ernesto de la Cruz! The greatest musician of all time!”
“We’ve never known anything about this man. But whoever he was, he still left his family,” Miguel’s father said. “This is no future for my son.”
“But, Papa, you told me to look to the ofrenda (灵坛). You said my family would guide me! Well, Ernesto de la Cruz is my family! I’m supposed to play music!”
“Never! That man’s music was a curse (诅咒)! I will not allow it!” Abuelita said, raising her voice.
“You will listen to your family. No more music,” added Miguel’s father.
“Just listen to me play – ” “End of argument,” Papa said.
Miguel thought they’d change their minds if they heard him play. He lifted his guitar and prepared to strum, but Abuelita snatched it from his hands. She pointed to the photo. “You want to end up like that man? Forgotten? Left off your family’s ofrenda?”
“I don’t care if I’m on some stupid ofrenda!” The words burst out before Miguel could stop them. He couldn’t take them back, even though he wanted to.
The family gasped. Abuelita’s brow hardened. She raised the guitar in the air.
“No!” Miguel cried.
“Mama,” Miguel’s dad said just as Abuelita smashed (撞击) the guitar against the ground.
“There! No guitar, no music,” she said.
The whole family was silent as Miguel stared at his guitar, shattered into a hundred pieces on the ground. Miguel couldn’t move — he felt like someone had smashed him to pieces.
【1】Where would this passage most likely be found?
A. In a book of travel. B. In a history book.
C. In a book of nature. D. In a novel.
【2】What does “it” in the passage refer to?
A. photograph B. guitar C. music D. curse
【3】How did Miguel’s feelings change in the passage?
A. hopeful → hopeless B. excited → hopeful
C. hopeless → hopeful D. hopeful→ excited
【4】Why did Miguel’s father say “This is no future for my son.”?
A. Because he thought his son Miguel was crazy about fantasies because of a curse.
B. Because he thought it impossible for Miguel to be a great musician like his hero.
C. Because he thought Miguel shouldn’t only dream for music after leaving his family.
D. Because he thought music couldn’t guide Miguel to a bright future instead of family.

The immune system is the body’s defender. It identifies, tracks down, and destroys troublemakers before they can hurt the body. Those troublemakers may be, for example, bacteria from a cut or splinter, a measles germ, a cold bug, or even a cancer cell. These invaders try to take over our tissues and feed off our bodies’ nutrients. If they succeed, we become sick or, sometimes, even die. It’s the job of our immune systems to destroy these invaders before they destroy us.
Say you picked up a flu virus last week. Perhaps it entered your body through a cut from a drinking glass, or from the air you breathe. Of course, you didn’t feel it, but the virus made its way into your bloodstream. As soon as it entered your body, it began to reproduce. Viruses have only one goal: to take over your cells. Once inside your body, viruses try to enter cells and disrupt their normal work. If left alone, these viruses would hurt so many cells that you would weaken, or worse, get a serious illness.
But this flu virus should not be so complacent as it seems to be. As it reproduces in your bloodstream, the virus is met by a certain kind of white blood cell, the lymphocytes. The lymphocytes are the foot soldiers that keep you alive.
The number of lymphocytes in your body is hard to imagine. Thousands of them could fit in the period at the end of this sentence. Your body holds about a trillion —that’s 1,000,000,000,000 of them, or about 3,000 in every drop of blood. Since you began reading this sentence, over 800,000 of them have been created and destroyed.
Some of these lymphocytes pass through a small walnut-sized organ called the thymus. The thymus is the base of the neck. Here, special hormones turn lymphocytes into fighting cells, called T cells. T cells have one terrific talent: They can tell the difference between friend and foe; what should be in our bodies and what shouldn’t. They do not affect the body ’s healthy cells. Yet they attack everything that is foreign to our bodies, such as germs, transplants, and even our own cells which have become abnormal, as in the case of cancer.
【1】What is the function of our immune system?
A. To take over our tissues and feed off our bodies’ nutrients.
B. To prevent bacteria or germs from entering the body.
C. To destroy the troublemakers in order that they might not hurt the body.
D. To fight against T cells.
【2】What does the underlined word “lymphocytes” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Food soldiers. B. Flu virus.
C. White blood cells. D. Troublemakers.
【3】The last sentence in paragraph 4 “since you began reading this sentence, over 800,000 of them have been created and destroyed” implies that ____.
A. this sentence contributes to the increase of the number of lymphocytes in your body
B. you would not realize that lymphocytes reproduce themselves rapidly but for th is sentence
C. because you read this sentence, a large number of lymphocytes have been consume d
D. the number of lymphocytes in your body is extremely large
【4】Which of the following questions best summaries the main idea of the whole passage?
A. How does the immune system attack the flu virus?
B. How does the immune system function in our body?
C. How do the lymphocytes work in our body?
D. What is the so-called immune system?

阅读与回答问题
The way we spend our time can be divided into three groups or jars (罐子). These would be the necessary tasks jar, the voluntary tasks jar and the happiness jar.
Every day, we spend time filling the necessary tasks jar. We fill this jar with useful things, like making money, doing housework, buying food and paying bills. We then fill another jar with voluntary tasks. These are things that we do for others, but we may not enjoy them. This jar is filled with tasks like taking children to activities and cooking family meals. Those jars are very important. If we don’t fill them each day, our family won’t run properly.
However, we often forget to fill the third jar− the happiness jar. This is the jar that we fill with activities that make us happy. Is your happiness jar sometimes empty at the end of the day? We all have days like that. Between doing all the necessary and voluntary tasks, time flies by on some days, and before we know it, it is time for bed.
That is why each day we try to fill our happiness jar. Most days, I fill mine by going to the ballroom dance (社交舞) class. Between the music, the dancing and the friendship among the students, I always leave classes happier than when I entered. Playing music is another way that I fill my happiness jar. This week, I was happy to take part in an orchestra (管弦乐队) practice at my church (教堂). A small group of us met to practice Christmas music for a church service. It was a time of fun, friendship and music making. At the end of the evening, my happiness jar was full.
Consider how your time is spent. Try to find ways to achieve a balance. At the end of the day, hopefully we’ve done all we can to make sure that our happiness jar is filled.
【1】How many kinds of jars are mentioned in this passage?
——————————————————————————————————————
【2】What will happen if we don’t fill the necessary tasks jar and the voluntary tasks jar?

【3】Why do we often forget to fill the third jar?

【5】Do you think it important to fill the happiness jar? Why or why not?
