Exam stress is a common problem among students. How can we relieve(缓解)exam stress? Today let's look at some great advice from these four students.
The best way to relieve exam stress is doing sports. This can make you relaxed and help you feel better for the day. At the same time, eating the right food is also good for your body and mind.
I think you should stay in a comfortable place. If you are in a crowded place, it might make you feel more stressed. Find a quiet and tidy place to study and relax. It can help you feel much better.
One of the common reasons for exam stress is not knowing what to face. Mock (模拟的) exams help you learn the structure (结构) of the exams you're going to take. Parents can help to time you so you know how to make use of your time during the exams.
Keeping organized is one of the most important parts of exams. You can make a learning plan to get ready for your exams. Don't forget to spare some time for breaks. Try to make your learning fun.
1.Why does Jimmy think doing sports is the best way to relieve exam stress?
A. Because it can help people relax and feel better for the day.
B. Because it can help people learn the structure of the coming exams.

Sometimes, families can be hard. People argue a lot. They get upset. Sometimes they stop talking too. Our family has had lots of ups and downs. I'd say arguments often happen in our family too.
I have an older brother and an older sister. I'm the baby boy in the family. We grew up in quite a small house and often didn't have a lot of money. My mum and dad argued, pretty much all the time, just about anything. My brother and sister argued. And I used to argue.
But as I got older, I always chose to be the mediator (调解员). I would try to look at both sides of the argument and bring them together to make peace. "Dad, you shouldn't say that to Mum, but Mum, try to see it this way." "Come on guys, we all love each other. It's just been a bad day." I'd say it often worked.
I learned much growing up in our family: understanding, being patient and the knowledge that sometimes things just don't go your way. We all make mistakes. We all say things that we wish we hadn't. The key is to try and understand. Of course, sometimes, arguments do need to happen. If something is wrong, it needs to be solved and sometimes, we get angry about it. But as long as we can reflect and look at things with an attitude (态度) of care and responsibility, we can weather the storm and help each other out.
6.What do we know about the writer's family?
A. Two of the kids in the family are girls.
B. The writer is the youngest in the family.
C. The writer never argues with his parents.
D. His parents get along well with each other.
7.What did the writer learn from his family?
A. Knowledge is useless in communication.
B. A family shouldn't share feelings with each other.
C. Arguments are always bad and should never happen.
D. A family should understand and care for each other.
8.What does the underlined phrase“weather the storm”mean?
A. To deal with a difficult situation successfully.
B. To ask somebody for help when in trouble.
C. To tell exactly what the weather will be like.
D. To explain what to do during a storm.
