It’s interesting to watch students to show their talents. Activities: · Cooking: Ten students from different classes make delicious food in the school dining hall. And invite the teachers to enjoy the food to show their thanks. · T-shirt Dying(染色): The students put T-shirts into the dye.

The Art Festival in Zengguofan Middle School lasted for _______. A. two days B. four days C. seven days 22. Who chooses the best singer of Guofan? A. Students. B. Teachers and students. C. Only teachers. B What is the most stressful thing in school? It is probably exams.Exams can put us under a lot of pressure(压力). But some students do better under pressure, while others do not. So, why do some students perform better under stress? It all comes down to dopamine(多巴胺). Dopamine is a chemical in our body that sends signals in the brain.It has many important roles:affecting memory,attention and how we learn. Our brain work best when there is a balance of dopamine－not too much or too little.　　 Our brains control dopamine in two ways.It either takes out dopamine quickly,or gradually(逐渐地). Exam success can be linked to how fast dopamine goes back to a balance, according to new research from the University of Missouri, reported Yahoo. 　　What happens when we take an exam? If you become stressed, your brain will start to overload(超负荷) on dopamine. It is like a cup overflowing with water. The quicker you are able to go back to a balance of dopamine,the quicker you can concentrate,helping you perform better on a test. Scientists found that,during a test,people who slowly got back to a balance of dopamine scored 8 percent lower. That’s the difference between a good mark and a bad mark. But don't fear, there is good news for every student. The study also found that the more practice you get,the less stress you’ll have. So it turns out that practice really makes perfect. 23.Which things does dopamine play a role in? (1)remembering something (2)having a good rest (3)paying attention to the teachers (4)choosing the way we learn A. (1)(2)(3) B. (1)(3)(4) C.

A. they can go back to a good balance of dopamine quickly B. they have a lot of dopamine C. they go back to a balance of dopamine slowly 26. What can’t we learn from story? A. Our brain either takes out dopamine quickly,or gradually. B. The quicker you can go back to an even balance of dopamine,the better you can do on a test. C.
