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.
Show a positive attitude. 70 Your panic, anxiety and blame contribute to your teen’s pressure. Make your teen feel accepted and valued for her efforts. Most importantly, reassure your teen that things will be all right, no matter what the results are.
A.Encourage your teen to relax. |
B.The best thing is simply to be there. |
C.They will only make the situation worse. |
D.Exam stress can make some teens lose their appetite (食欲). |
F. Your teen may also make negative comments about themselves.
G. Help your teen think about what she has to study and plan accordingly.

Some years ago when I was in my first year in college, I heard Salome Bey sing for the first time. The moment was exciting. Salome’s 36 filled the room and brought the theater to life. I was so 37 that I decided to write an article about her.
I 38 Salome Bey, telling her I was from Essence magazine, and that I wanted to meet her to talk her career. She 39 and told me to come to her studio next Tuesday. When I hung up, I was scared out of my mind. I 40 I was lying. I was not a writer at all and hadn’t even written a grocery list.
I interviewed Salome Bey the next Tuesday. I sat there 41 , taking notes and asking questions that all began with, “Can you tell me…” I soon realized that 42 Salome Bey was one thing, but writing a story for a national magazine was just impossible. The 43 was almost unbearable. I struggled for days 44 draft after draft. Finally I put my manuscript (手稿) into a large envelope and dropped it into a mailbox.
It didn’t take long. My manuscript 45 . How stupid of me! I thought. How could I 46 in a world of professional writers? Knowing I couldn’t 47 the rejection letter, I threw the unopened envelope into a drawer.
Five years later, I was moving to California. While 48 my apartment, I came across the unopened envelope. This time I opened it and read the editor’s letter in 49 :
Dear Ms Profit,
Your story on Salome Bey is fantastic. Yet we need some 50 materials. Please add those and return the article immediately. We would like to 51 your story soon.
Shocked, it took me a long time to 52 . Fear of rejection cost me dearly. I lost at least five hundred dollars and having my article appear in a major magazine. More importantly, I lost years of 53 writing. Today, I have become a full – time writer. Looking back on this 54 , I learned a very important lesson: You can’t 55 to doubt yourself.

I have always preferred the projects which are challenging and related to real life problems. I clearly remember building a shipping program several years ago. I divided the whole project into several small sections. When I understood it clearly, used my brainstorming skill on it, and gave some basic ideas. Then I asked my professor for help before jumping into coding (编码). At first, I did not know how to ask questions correctly and always asked the question “How do I do it?” As I kept working and discussed with my professor, I became more comfortable and those “how ”questions soon turned into “what if I do this and that” types of questions.
It took me four days to write the code. The desire to solve the problem kept me sleepless all nights brainstorming in even greater details. Every time I saw my program running smoothly, I exploded with joy. I still remember the last day of my work. I was getting some problem and didn’t know what to do. At that moment, a man came in to clean. He has headphones, and he was dancing while cleaning the room. Seeing this, I burst out laughing. That moment calmed me. I regained energy and interest and started to work again, and soon I fixed the problem.
My success in the project proved that breaking up a large problem into small parts could help find a possible solution. Discussing the problem with others was also very beneficial. Now I have gained the confidence to attempt any kind of project.

阅读下面的短文,并根据要求回答后面的问题。(注意字数要求)
[1] If you are applying for an American higher education, you probably dream of getting into an Ivy League (常青藤联盟) university.The eight schools with the best reputations attract top students from the United States and many other countries.However, on average, the Ivy League schools accept less than 15 percent of applicants.And with the applicants growing in size year on year, it is becoming more and more difficult _________.
[2] So how can you give yourself the best chance of admission?
[3]Having a high school grade point average (GPA) in the top 10 percent of your class and being ranked among the top few students dramatically betters your chances.But although GPA and SAT scores are important, they only tell admission deans(主任) part of the story.
[4] The whole admissions process will single out (挑选出) from a large pool of academically strong applicants the unique individuals.They stand out because they have shown in their interviews a range of virtues (优点) expected of these universities.Take Harvard for example.Although there is no guarantee of admission, the school judges applicants based on 15 additional criteria.
[5] Intellectual curiosity (求知欲) comes first tor almost all admission deans.Schools look to such students because they believe their peers find them slimulaling(激励人的)inside and outside the classroom.
[6] Leadership also weighs heavily.The school would rather see an applicant who takes on additional responsibility in one or two areas where he or she is good at, rather than one who is merely "very good" academically.This can mean the class presidencv(主席职务), leading the cheerleading team or being the officer of a student union.
[7] Whether a person has personal warmth and cares about others counts a lot with the admission deans.Writing an essay on a personal experience, like a summer spent raising funds for the earthquake victims or teaching in a local school, can show that a person has qualities in addition to academic experience.
76.What is the purpose of the passage? (no more than 15 words)
77.Which sentence in the passage can be replaced by the following one?
The universities pay attention to the students with this virtue in that they can inspire their fellow students at school.
78.Fill in the blank in the first paragraph with proper words or phrases to complete the sentence. (no more than 5 words)
79.Based on the passage, list three additional criteria for admission besides academic performance.(no more than 10 words)
①_________________ ②_______________ ③____________________
80.Translate the underlined sentence in the fourth paragraph into Chinese.

It was a bitter, cold craning in evening Virginia years ago. An old man was waiting for a ride across the river. The wait seemed endless. His body became stiff the cold wind.
He heard the faint, steady 31 of approaching hooves (马蹄) coming along the frozen path, 32 , he watched as several horsemen 33 the bend. He let the first one pass by, then another and another. Finally, the last rider neared the sport where the old man sat like a snow 34 . As this one drew near ,the old man 35 the rider’s eye and said, “Sir, would you mind giving an old man a 36 to the other side?” There appear to be passage way by foot."
Reining his horse, the rider replied, “Sure. Hop aboard.” Seeing the old man was unable to 37 his half – frowned body from the ground, the horseman dismounted and helped the old man onto the horse. The horse took the old man not just across the fiver ,but to his 38 .
As they neared the cottage, the horseman’ 39 caused him to inquire ,"Sir ,I notice that you let several other riders 40 without making an effort to secure a ride. Then I came up and you 41 asked me for a ride. I"m curious. What if I had 42 and left you there?"
The old man 43 himself slowly down from the horse, looked the rider straight in the eyes, and replied, "I’ve been around here for some time .I 44 I know people pretty good. The old – timer continued. I looked into the eyes of the other riders and immediately saw there was no 45 for my situation. It would have been 46 even to ask them for a ride. But when looked into your eyes, kindness and compassion were 47 . I knew, then and there, that your gentle spirit would welcome the opportunity to give me 48 my time of need.”
Those heartwarming comments 49 the horseman deeply.
“I"m most grateful for what you have said.” He told the old man .""May I have get too 50 in my own affairs that I fail to respond to the needs of others with kindness and compassion ."

But then we had Matthew. And Marvin. And the twins, Alisa and Alan. And then Helen. Five children. I was too busy raising them to grow a garden.
Money was tight, as well as time. Often when my children were little, one of them would want something that cost too much, and I"d have to say, "Do you see a money tree outside? Money doesn"t grow on trees, you know."
Finally, all five got through high school and college and were off on their own. I started thinking again about having a garden.
I wasn"t sure, though. I mean, gardens do cost money, and after all these years I was used to living on a pretty lean, no-frills budget.
Then, one spring morning, on Mother"s Day, I was working in my kitchen. Suddenly, I realized that cars were tooting their horns as they drove by. I looked out the window and there was a new tree, planted right in my yard. I thought it must be a weeping willow, because I saw things blowing around on all its branches. Then I put my glasses on - and I couldn"t believe what I saw. There was a money tree in my yard!
I went outside to look. It was true! There were dollar bills, one hundred of them, taped all over that tree. Think of all the garden flowers I could buy with one hundred dollars! There was also a note attached: "IOU eight hours of digging time. Love, Marvin."
Marvin kept his promise, too. He dug up a nice ten-by-fifteen foot bed for me. And my other children bought me tools, ornaments, a trellis (棚架), a sunflower stepping stone and gardening books.
That was three years ago. My garden"s now very pretty, just like I wanted. When I go out and weed or tend my flowers, I don"t seem to miss my children as much as I once did. It feels like they"re right there with me.
I live up in Michigan"s Upper Peninsula, where winters are long and cold, and summers are too short. But every year now, when winter sets in, I look out my window and think of the flowers I"ll see next spring in my little garden. I think about what my children did for me, and I get tears in my eyes - every time.
I"m still not sure that money grows on trees. But I know love does!
小题1:By saying “Do you see a money tree outside .….,” the mother actually means “ ”
A.Observation is the best teacher. |
B.Seeing is believing. |
C.The outsider sees the most of the game. |
D.It is not easy to gain money |
A.My flower garden | B.Marvin helps to realize my dream |
C.Love in Michigan | D.Money grows on trees |
A.wasteful | B.tight | C.absurd | D.helpful |
A.divorced when she was young | B.not caring for her kids any longer |
C.alone but not at all lonely | D.prouder with her garden than with her kids. |
