What would you be like if tomorrow was the entrance exam to senior high school Peaceful and happy as usual Or, would you become worried and uneasy
“I was surprised at how I could get angry so easily with my parents before a big exam.” said Junior 3 student Wang Yangqian from Hefei. “ I couldn’t fall asleep even after I’d been in bed for two hours.”
Not only exams but also other things, like a big game, can make you different from how you are usually.
You may act differently because you are stressed out. Stress is what you feel when you are worried or uncomfortable about something. Usually your hands get wet and your heart beats faster. You feel stressed because you might ask too much of yourself sometimes. Or, your parents, teachers or classmates put too much pressure on you. This can make you worried. But being stressed is not always a big problem. Everybody, even sports stars, can get a little worried before a big game.
Some kinds of stress are good. Good stress might show up when you’re called on in class or when you have to give a report. This kind of stress can help you get things done well. You may do a better job in your book report if the anxiety pushes you to do more work before you read it to the class.
Sometimes stress can turn into something bad if you keep having stressful feelings for a long time. This kind of stress isn’t going to help you. It can make you sick. You may have trouble paying attention at school and forget things easily.
So, remember to stay relaxed. It won’t be the end of the world, even if you don’t pass the exam.

What is your school life like Can you keep a balance between your schoolwork and activities If you have any problem, who do you want to talk with Maybe you are not willing to share them with family members or close friends. Then a youth coach might be a good choice.
A youth coach helps you develop life skills while providing guidance for you. A youth coach can also help you learn how to manage stress.
Simon Waltz set up a youth coaching company five years ago. “I offer teenagers a place to talk. I help them find out problems, and then we work them out together,” said Waltz. John’s grades were once very terrible. And he didn’t worry at all. Waltz helped him decide on his future plan.

Bella Miranda talked with Orella about the things she really enjoyed. By joining the school violin club, Orella has made several new friends. By sharing interesting trips with her classmates, Orella has kept a good relationship with them.

Children spend more time messaging each other on phones and websites than talking in person, a survey has revealed. Text messages and social networking sites have become the common mode of youngsters aged 8 to 14.
A survey of modern childhood found that many youngsters are conscious that they are spending too much time on their computers and enjoy themselves the most when playing outside. But the lure (诱惑) of electronic products proves too strong for a quarter, while a fifth say their parents don’t like them playing outside because they are worried about strangers and injuries.
The “I Generation report” suggested that youngsters are increasingly health-conscious and skeptical (持怀疑态度的) of commercialization, including gender-based labeling on toys and pop videos released by singers. More than half of those questioned care about eating healthily and one in 10 lectures (训斥) their own parents about the food they are eating or buying, 42 percent of those questioned own a smartphone, with 36 percent admitting spending more time communicating with friends by sending instant messaging, such as texts or networking websites, than talking in person. Only one child in 100 said that being happy, having a loving family and being clever were taken as the most important elements in their lives.
Cary Cooper, the professor of organizational psychology and health at Lancaster University, said social media were contributing to youngsters becoming more independent. They had a sense of individuality due to exposure to a range of media.
The survey follows major state-backed research which found that youngsters are turning their back on drink, drugs and smoking. It found a dramatic drop in the number of secondary school students trying and regularly using drugs, alcohol and tobacco. Some analysts said that thanks to the rise of social media, millions of teenagers are spending their time at home in their rooms rather than out on the streets.
37．Why can’t 25 percent of the children get away from electronic products
A．It is dangerous for them to hang out long.
B．Electronic products are too appealing to them.
C．They are protected from strangers and injuries.
D．They enjoy themselves most when playing outside.
38．We can learn from Paragraph 3 that youngsters ________.
A．are fans of the pop videos released by singers
B．message each other more rather than chat in person
C．are doubtful about possessing the latest smartphones
D．pay no attention to their lifestyle nowadays
39．The attitude of Cary Cooper towards social media is ________.
A．objective B．negative C．supportive D．unclear
40．The last paragraph is written to show ________.
A．the benefits of social media B．the drop of taking drugs in youngsters
C．the exposure to a range of media D．youngsters are becoming more conscious

Some believe that people are either smart or dumb. And if they are smart, everything is easy for them. 41 But they can improve the skills they have and develop new ones. What’s your opinion
In fact, this is related to one’s mindset (思维模式). Dr. Carol Dweck, a psychology professor at Stanford University, has discovered that people with a fixed mindset solve problems in a much different way from those with a growth mindset.
Dr. Dweck found people with a fixed mindset care about grades. When they make mistakes, they think it means they’re not smart. 42 They’re afraid of challenges, because if they don’t do well, they may look dumb. People with a growth mindset, on the other hand, care about learning, not grades. They learn from mistakes by trying different ways to solve problems or asking for help.
43 They discovered that students with a growth mindset do better in math; those with a fixed mindset do worse. Why Kids with both mindsets do well in primary school, but middle school math is much harder. So while the growth-mindset kids accept the challenge and work harder, the fixed-mindset kids may just give up. 44
But Dweck’s team discovered something even more important than that. They found that, with some work, kids can choose to have a growth mindset and do better in school. Everyone has some of each type of mindset. 45 When you hear your fixed mindset voice telling you that you’re dumb, or that you’ll look stupid if you ask for help, or that learning a new skill is hard, talk back to it! Then you really can get smarter by working hard, practicing and challenging yourself!
A．As a result, their grades drop.
B．They also care about how smart they look.
C．Some hold the belief that not everyone can become a genius.
D．They are just like two kinds of voices in your head.
E．Dweck and her team did a research among middle school students.

3．句意：有时像这样的孩子比他们看起来要聪明得多。

14．句意：希望他们能以一种新的兴趣结束这门课程。
finished动词的过去式或过去分词；have finished现在完成时；are finishing现在进行时；will finish一般将来时。根据题干中“Hopefully”可知父母希望他们将以一种新的兴趣结束课程，要用一般将来时，其结构为will do。故选D。
