Exam season can bring on levels of stress and burnout that can hinder your studies. 1.

1. Take regular breaks and schedule in fun things to look forward to

Even the most intense exam timetables will allow a little time for a study break. 2. Go out for dinner with friends, go to the cinema, attend a gig, anything that you like doing in your spare time that will take your mind off exams. Spending a little time away from the books will leave you feeling more refreshed and relaxed the next time you revise.

2. Exercise and get outdoors

Easily one of the most frustrating things about exam season is that it seems to occur just as the weather brightens up. Use this to your advantage and go out for a walk, or a run, or head to the gym or swimming pool. 3.

3. Don’t (always) listen to others

4. While it is helpful to discuss topics with fellow students and often to revise together, try not to compare other people’s revision to your own. Chances are you’re doing just fine, and listening to other people talk about what they’ve learnt will only stress you out and may make you feel like you aren’t progressing as well as them.

4. 5.

If the stress gets to a point where it is overwhelming, and is affecting your day-to-day life, try and speak to someone about it. Open up to a family member or a friend about the pressure you feel. You’ll be amazed to know that you aren’t alone in feeling like this.

A.Speak to someone

B.You can speak to people about your concerns

C.As the old saying goes: “comparison is the thief of joy”.

D.Here are some handy tips on how to manage your anxiety.

E.This can include 20-minute breaks during your revision day.

F.Plus, if they themselves are stressed this can rub off on to you

G.Besides keeping you healthy, exercise can help to make you more productive while revising.

I’m about to begin my fifth season of tree planting. Each year, around this time, I have mixed feelings about the job. Never have I loved a job so much while hating it with equal measure. I mainly plant trees on the coast of British Columbia and get paid about 35 cents a tree. The job can be profitable. It gives planters the opportunity to lead a roaming (漫游的) lifestyle, with a temporary duty to spend a few months filling their bank accounts. But there are many challenges.

In the early hours of the morning, we join our teams and travel along rough roads deep into the woodlands. When stepping out of the trucks, often in the pouring rain, we’re faced with a steep chunk of land that’s just been logged (砍伐). I step into the rain and fill my bags with hundreds of tiny trees. Experienced tree-planters treat this more like a sport than a job, thus lighting up the mood.

Once our bags are full, we immediately charge up that hillside before feeling reluctant to go. We jump from log to log, and if they roll out from under our feet, we grab onto whatever within reach and swing around like monkeys. We push through stinging bushes. We stumble and fall constantly, always pushing ourselves to go faster among groups of insects that we often breathe in.

While tree planting, I come across someone else, a self I thought I knew. It is a person I try to come to peace with on those hillsides, during those strange days of isolation (隔绝) and deep thinking.

Tree planting is a lab of self-examination and growth, where you face the worst and the best in your nature and push yourself as hard as you can. And, a new version of yourself awaits at the end of the experience.

1.Which of the following is true about the writer’s job?

A.It is a bittersweet job to some degree.

B.He works 12 months a year.

C.He can make a fortune with this job.

D.He is stuck in a place all year round.

2.What challenges will they meet when planting trees?

A.They feel reluctant to collect tiny trees.

B.Workers’ mood needs to be lighted up on the truck.

C.They will have to help each other when planting trees.

D.The conditions are really tough on the hillside.

3.In what way has the writer benefited most by planting trees?

A.He has smoothed away many difficulties.

B.He has discovered a whole new himself.

C.He has developed tree-planting skills.

D.He has gained lifelong friendship.

In 2009, Dr. Kathleen Wermke and her colleagues made headlines with a study showing that French and German newborns produce distinctly different “cry melodies,” reflecting the languages they heard in womb (子宫). Today, Dr. Wermke’s lab houses a collection of around a half-million recordings of babies from as far a field as Cameroon and China.

The analysis of these recordings has produced further insights into the factors that shape a baby’s first sounds. Newborns whose mothers speak tonal languages, such as Mandarin, tend to produce more complex cry melodies. Swedish newborns, whose native language has what linguists call a “pitch accent,” produce more sing-songy cries.

Hearing and imitating are fundamental to language development. By the third trimester, a fetus (胎儿) can hear the rhythm and melody of its mother’s voice — known as “prosody”. It is the defining characteristic of language for the fetus. After they are born, young babies mimic many different sounds. But they are especially shaped by the prosody they heard in the womb, which becomes a handy guide to the strange sounds coming from the people around them. Through stress, pauses and other clues, prosody cuts up the stream of sound into words and phrases – that is, into speech.

“These studies redouble the lab’s broader effort to map the typical development of a baby’s cries, as well as vocalizations like cooing and babbling.” Dr. Kathleen Wermke said. “Knowing what typical development looks like and what factors can influence it helps doctors address potential problems early on.”

1.The underlined word “mimic” in Paragraph 3 refers to ______.

A.imitate B.learn

C.hear D.gain

2.What is Dr. Kathleen Wermke’s attitude towards the studies？

A.Ambiguous B.Doubtful

C.Neutral D.Approving

3.What would be the best title for the text?

A.Mandarin is the most complex tonal language

B.Swedish newborns produce more simple cry sounds.

C.Newborn babies cry in different languages

D.Hearing is fundamental to language development

Although Kobe Bryant is no longer with us, his unbreakable will on and off the basketball court lives on. This month, it was announced that the late superstar would be accepted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame at a ceremony on Aug 29, a great honor for basketball’s best.

“His fierce competitiveness, work ethic and drive were unmatched,” Jeanie Buss, owner of the Los Angles Lakes, told ESPN. “Those qualities helped Bryant lead us to five titles — and have now brought him to the Hall of Fame. No one deserves it more.”

Indeed, it was Bryant’s unmatchable commitment and determination to be the best that elevated (提升地位) him above his peers. He called it the “mamba mentality” after the black mamba, one of the world’s deadliest snakes — and also after the top killer from the 2003 movie Kill Bill. The mamba mentality became so popular that Bryant even detailed his process in his book The Mamba Mentality: How I Play. In it, he revealed his famously detailed approach as well as his physical and mental preparation to not just succeed at the game, but to excel.

“Mamba mentality is all about focusing on the process and trusting in the hard work, which is just the competitive spirit.” he wrote in the book. “It started when someone described me like that one day, and it’s grown into something athletes – and even non-athletes – adopt as a mindset.”

Bryant took after one of the greatest basketball players, Michael Jordan, not only with regard to Jordan’s playing style, but his competitive nature. “I liked challenging people and making them uncomfortable,” Bryant once said, “That’s what leads to self-reflection and improvement. You could say I dared people to be their best selves.”

Though many were shocked and sad when the Los Angles great died in a helicopter crash in January, all signs point to Bryant’s legacy (遗产) for generations to come. Whether you’re a basketball player or not, you can’t deny the Kobe’s power to inspire you to be your best self.

1.It can be inferred from the second paragraph that______.

A.Bryant’s qualities helped him win five titles

B.Bryant was too competitive to become a great player

C.Bryant in particular deserves the honor he will receive

D.Bryant is the only qualified player in the Hall of Fame

2.According to Bryant, what is true mamba mentality?

A.It means being willing to cooperate with teammates.

B.It refers to the spirit of working hard to be the best.

C.It means reflecting on oneself from time to time.

D.It is a belief that both the process and outcome matter.

3.Why did Bryant like challenging people?

A.He found it fun to make people uncomfortable.

B.He wanted to show off his basketball skills.

C.He inspired them to develop passion for basketball.

D.He believed it could promote people’s improvement.

4.What is the text mainly about?

A.How Bryant died in a helicopter crash.

B.How mamba mentality came into being.

C.Why Bryant was inducted into the Hall of Fame.

D.Mamba Mentality—Bryant’s legacy to the world.

The Farmers’ Fresh Market

This morning,I went to the Farmers Market in Burlington ,Vermont. I didn’t know what the Farmers Market is or how to get there. 1.

First ,I had to decide how to go there,and I chose both to walk and to take a bus. When I went,I would walk and when I came back,I would take a bus. 2.

Walking to the market in this city,I was surprised because every house was beautiful,and they were all arranged in good order. In Korea’s cities,most houses are not like that,and many apartments are like boxes which often screen off beautiful views like hills and mountains. Also,every road is not straight and narrow. 3.

4.It was a very small market,but a very interesting one. I don’t know why farmers go there to sell vegetables or why people go there to buy them because there are many more products in large supermarkets. 5.

Also ,all the things sold there were very novel. In addition to fresh food,there was homemade food and many other things such as woolen blankets,quilts ,and wooden products.

I wanted to buy some of them,but I didn’t need them,so I just looked at them. It was a very exciting experience.

A.I visited a flower stand at the market.

B.Anyway,I was able to find the Farmers’ Market.

C.So, to me, this American town was very impressive.

D.I decided to go early because the market is held in the morning.

E.I knew that it would take a long time to walk,but I wanted to see an American town.

F.I was attracted by the comfortable houses where they lived and the cars that they drove.

G.I think the reason is that the ones sold in the Farmers’ Market are fresher and cheaper.
