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. 1 . What they look for is your presence to talk, to cry, or simply to sit with them quietly. Communicate openly with your teen. Encourage your teen to express his worries and fears, but don’t let them focus on those fears.
Help them get organized. 2 Together, you and your teen can work out a time – table 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 his privacy. Give them a nutritious diet. It’s important for your teen to eat a healthy, balanced died during exam times to focus and do her best. 3 If this happens, encourage your teen to eat light meals or sandwiches. A healthy diet, rather than junk food, is best for reducing stress.
4 Persuade your teenager to get some sleep or do something active when she needs a real break from studying. Making time for relaxation, fun, and exercise are all important in reducing stress. 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. 5 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．A parent’s attitude will dictate their teen’s emotions. |
| B．Exam stress can make some teens lose their appetite. |
| C．They will only make the situation worse. |
| D．Encourage your teen to relax. |
E．The best thing is simply to be there.
F．Help your teen think about what she has to study and plan accordingly.
G．Your teen may also make negative comments about themselves.

eeds full and active cooperation between two persons — the teacher and the student.
_1_ One of the best things you can possibly do is to start you own club. It’s great fun especially if you are the sort of person who feels there’s never anything to do during the school holidays.
The first thing you need to come up with is an idea for your club. _2_ Pets, clothes, pop music or dancing groups, sports, making things? The list is endless.
Next you need some friends to be in your club with you. _3_ All you need is three or four other people who are interested in the same thing as you.
_4 You should all sit down somewhere together with lots of pieces of paper and write down every name you can think up. That’ll keep you busy for ages.
At your first meeting you should make up a rule book. And the first rule should be no grown-ups or little/big brothers or sisters! The best clubs are always secret!
Now you have just about everything you need, except membership cards. These are very important and again you can speed a lot of time making them. 5 Why not leave some space for a photo of yourself? That will make the membership card really look like it.
So there you are, get clubbing! Once you get started you’ll think of loads of more interesting things to do!
| A．That’s easy. |
| B．Enjoy your own club! |
| C．Invite a designer to join you. |
| D．What are you interest in? |

In a national spelling contest in America, an 11-year-old girl was asked to spell a certain word. But with her soft voice the judges were not sure if she spelled the word with the letter A or E. 71 By now, the girl knew she had misspelled the word. But instead of lying and telling the judges she had said the correct letter, she told the truth that she had said the wrong letter. 72
As the girl walked off the stage, the entire audience stood on their feet clapping to applaud her honesty. Later, dozens of newspaper reporters wrote about this 11-year-old girl’s courage and honesty, even when it cost her the contest. 73
Probably the biggest test of our character and honesty is what we would do if we knew we would never get caught.
This young girl could easily have lied, and nobody would have known it but her. But that’s just it: She would know she did wrong. 74
This young girl was strong and smart enough to prize her own conscience and character more than the prize from a spelling contest. Her respect for herself was more important than any respect others might give her for winning a contest. She knew she would have to live with herself and the choice she made at the moment.
75
| A．So she won the contest. |
| B．As a result, she lost the contest. |
| C．The judges wanted to give her another chance. |
| D．It’s been said, “If you cheat, you make yourself cheap.” |
E. It’s so true that the choices you make today make what you are tomorrow.
F. They talked it over and finally decided to simply ask her what she had said.
G. But the fact is that she won the biggest contest that day: the contest of her character.

of more skilled people, and slowly mak
e the needed changes.
But in school we never give a child a chance to find out his mistakes and correct them for himself. 73 we act as if we thought that he would never notice a mistake unless it was pointed out to him, or correct it unless he was made to. Let him work out, with the help of other children if he wants it, what this word says, what the answer is to that problem, whether this is a good way of saying or doing this or not.
If it is a matter of 
right answer, as it may be in mathematics or science, give him the answer book. 74 Why should we teachers waste time on such routine work? 75 Let the children learn what all educated people must some day learn, how to measure their own understanding, and how to know what they know or do not know.
| A．Children learn to do all the other things in the same way. |
| B．Let him correct his own papers. |
| C．Point out his mistakes. |
| D．We do it all for him. |
E. We allow him to learn from other children.
F. A child learning to talk does not learn by being corrected all the time.
G. Our job should be to help the child when he tells us that he can’t find the way to get the right answer.
