As the college entrance examination is really around a corner now, many students feel quite stressful. What should we do it to avoid this?
Firstly, doing physical was the best way to reduce stress and helps people relax. Therefore, it is helpful that we each does some regular physical exercise. Secondly, making a proper study plan is great importance too, since it is helpful for us to do our homework more efficient. Last but not least, we should pay special attention in our diet as well. Anyway, a balanced diet can help them smart and energetic.
Only if we can do these things will we make our times of study enjoyable, efficient and fruitful.

Every single decision we make shapes our current reality 1. So if you're unsatisfied with your life right now，making the effort to change your decisions will be the key to creating the life you want to have in the future．
Realize the power of decision making．
2. When you decide to pick up a cigarette，that decision might result in you picking up another later on．But if you decide no to smoke that first cigarette and make a decision to focus your attention somewhere else，your desire will eventually weaken and you will become smoke-free．
3.
When you make a decision，act on it．Commit to making a real decision．What's a real decision？It's when you decide on something，and that decision is carried out through action．It's pointless to make a decision in your head，but not doing anything about it．That's the same as not making a decision at all．
Tell others about your decisions．
Sometimes telling other people what we're going to do will make us follow through．I've been trying to become an early riser but waking up early without falling back asleep felt impossible．So I made the decision to tell people that I would wake up at 6a．m．and stay up． 4.
Have fun making decisions．
5. I know decision-making might not be a fun thing，but when you do it often，you'll learn a lot about yourself on the way，and you'll become more confident，and making decisions will just become easier that you won't even think about it．
A．Enjoy the process．
B．Carry your decision out．
C．Examine the decision you now have．
D．Any decision you make causes a chain of events．
E．Within two days，I was able to accomplish doing this．
F．But we often go through life unaware what actions we are taking．
G．Before making a decision，you have to understand what the decision means.
Pollution’s disastrous effects on the environment have become more obvious in recent years, leading to a movement to promote energy efficiency, less reliance on fossil fuels and a reduction in air and water pollution. Most scientists agree that such changes are necessary to protect our environment from further harm.
The construction industry consumes a large quantity of energy and resources and creates a huge amount of pollution. In the United States, building and development account for 39 percent of the country’s total energy use, 12 percent of total water consumption, 68 percent of total electricity consumption and 38 percent of carbon dioxide emissions, according to the Environment Protection Agency.
Green buildings use less energy, water, create less waste and are healthier to live, work and go to school in than standard buildings. Builders of green buildings use techniques that use resources more efficiently during the entire building cycle — construction, restoration, operation, maintenance (维护) and demolition (拆毁) — than those who construct more regular buildings.
The environmental benefits of building green include the protection of ecosystems and biodiversity, improved air and water quality, less waste flowing into streams and the conservation of natural resources. Green buildings can also result in lower operating costs because they typically use less energy and fewer materials and improve indoor air quality, improving the health of people who live there.
The process of building green includes technical and artistic planning with nature conservation in mind. Building designs often reflect the surrounding environment and natural resources and use renewable building materials such as bamboo and straw. In addition, recycled resources found locally are used for green buildings, reducing the cost and air pollution associated with transporting materials long distances.
Careful site selection is important to minimize (最小化) human impact on the surrounding environment. For example, placing a structure in an area that allows it to take advantage of cool breezes (微风) and sunlight can reduce energy use and expenses. More energy and expense are needed for larger buildings as well, so it is important to build small.
Green roofs are another feature of green houses that reduce energy use and cost. These roofs are partially or completely covered with plants, which helps to keep heating and cooling costs low, prevent water running off and deal with pollutants.
Other features of green buildings often include energy and water conservation, recycling and waste reduction. In addition, renewable energy sources such as solar power, hydropower (水能) and wind power are used for heat and electricity, which greatly reduces costs and decreases the impact on the environment.

Feathers are not just for flight. They keep birds warm, and attract mates. And for one Australian bird, feathers even help produce an important sound—an alarm.
“People had long noticed these birds produced these loud sounds.” Trevor Murray, a researcher at the Australian National University said. “My supervisor Rob Magrath and May Hingee thought they were used as an alarm. So they did some playbacks and they could show quite strongly that if you play back these sounds to other birds, they flee straightaway. So I was really interested in how they produce the sound, whether it is actually a signal, and whether it’s a reliable signal.”
The team focused their experiment on specific feathers in the pigeon’s wing. “We were able to target the eighth primary feather, which is unusually narrow. And then we also removed, on different sets of birds, those neighboring feathers, the ninth primary feather and the seventh primary feather. And we were able to see when the eighth primary feather was missing, the high note had completely disappeared. So the eighth primary feather produced that high note and the ninth primary feather actually produced the low note.”
And if the birds are fleeing from danger, they produce a louder and higher sound than they do during a normal takeoff. The study is in the journal Current Biology.
Murray and his colleagues did another experiment where they used the recordings they made to observe the reactions of other pigeons. “We were able to see the unusual eighth primary feather was important for signaling the alarm. When that eighth primary feather was missing, they very rarely responded. They almost never fled. Whereas when the ninth primary produces the sound, they fled just as much as to normal alarms. This shows us this unusual primary feather is important for signaling alarm.”
That makes birds of a feather flee together.

2.What did Rob Magrath and May Hingee find out about the birds?

4.According to Murray and his colleagues, why does the unusual feathers matter most?
A. It keeps the pigeons warm B. It responds to alarms
