Many people believe that life has smiled to Yang Mi: at the age of 4, she got her first TV play role; at 16, she became a model for a fashion magazine; at 18, she went to her dream college—Beijing Film Academy.
In 2012, the 24-year-old actress played the bad girl Luo Qingchuan in the time-travelling (穿越剧) TV play,Palace. The play became a big success and made Yang very famous. The number of her micro blog followers (微博追随者) increased from several thousand to more than 3 million overnight.
Could she be any luckier?
Yang doesn’t think luck had anything to do with her success. She paved (铺路) her way all by herself. “Every chance is gained from the efforts I’ve made,” said Yang. People now think she is very hard-working.
She is eager (渴望的) to help others when they are in need. In May, Yang became the ambassador (大使) for the Climate Group. She calls on people to join the Million-Miracle (百万奇迹) Project and plant trees on China’s dry land. Together we’ll fight the bad weather!

Are you afraid of tests? What will you do to prepare for a test? The following suggestions will be helpful.
Pay attention to what your teacher gives about a coming test. Write down exactly what you will be tested on. Knowing what the test will cover is half done.
Make a review list that includes important points from class and reading material. Then your studying notes will be in one place. What’s more, rewriting the material will help you to remember it.
Don’t cram (突击式学习)!Test preparation begins the first day of class, so keep on doing your reading and homework. Then you just need to review for the test—not learn all the materials. If you wait until the night before to try to learn everything, you will only put more stress (压力) on yourself.
Get a good night’s sleep before the test, but if you can’t, don’t be awake the whole night. Research shows that getting at least four hours of sleep produces the better test results.
Eat a healthy breakfast to keep your mind sharp (敏锐的). Avoid sugar, as it will weaken your ability to concentrate (全神贯注).
