“The first prize for the bicycle race is $1,000,” said Mr. Hakansson.
“The judges won’t let you race,” said Mrs. Hakansson. “You’re 66 years old.”
“I am going to race,” said Mr. Hakansson. “And I am going to win!”
Mrs. Hakansson only smiled. She knew he couldn’t be in the race. He was 66 years old. But she also knew that he would try.
Mr. Hakansson went to see the judges. “I want to be in that race,” he said.
“Go home to your rocking chair!” said one of the judges. “You are too old. This race lasts for days. The men go from one end of Sweden to the other. That’s more than 1,000 miles. You would never make it.”
“We’ll see,” said Mr. Hakansson.
Over 1,000 men wanted to be in the race. The judges picked only 50. They were all strong young men. They went by train to the town where the race would begin. There they spent days getting ready.
Mr. Hakansson was not one of the 50. So he couldn’t ride on the train.
“Then I’ll ride my bicycle,” he said. And he did. He rode 1,000 miles just to get where the race was to start!
At last, the race began. The 50 strong young men climbed on their bicycles. One of the judges fired a gun. And the young men were off!
Close behind them came Mr. Hakansson. His long white beard waved in the wind. “You can keep me out of the race,” he said. “But you can’t keep me off the road!”
And then Mr. Hakansson moved in front of the 50 strong young men!
After a while he came to a small town. The street was lined with people. They cheered as Mr. Hakansson rode by.
“Look, Daddy,” said a small boy. “There goes Supergrandpa!” Everyone laughed.
A writer for a paper heard the boy. He took a picture of Mr. Hakansson and wrote a story about him. From then on everybody in Sweden was cheering for “Supergrandpa”.
Day after day the race went on. Each night the 50 strong men rested. But not Supergrandpa! He rode for three days and three nights without any sleep at all. Then he rested only three hours!
Supergrandpa didn’t even eat very much. He didn’t want to leave the road. But sometimes people brought him cake, coffee and berries. Then he would eat while sitting on his bicycle.
For more than six days Supergrandpa rode on. In all that time, he had only 10 hours of sleep.
At last he crossed the finish line — a day ahead of the strong men. All the town were there to meet him. Everybody cheered and cheered. A band from the fire station played. Dogs barked. Children danced around Supergrandpa.
25. Mr. Hakansson got to the town where the race began by ________.
A. running there B. taking the train
C. driving his car D. riding his bicycle
26. Mr. Hakansson crossed the finish line ________.
A. the day after he started the race B. a few minutes before another racer
C. a day before the other cyclists D. after ten hours of sleep

In the dead of winter, we don’t typically think about spending time outdoors, but according to many physicians we should. The sun is our greatest source of a vitamin that is essential for good health — vitamin D.
This important nutrient (营养素) strengthens bones and teeth and is linked to the prevention of heart disease, cancer and many other life-threatening diseases.
The recommended daily requirement is 400-600 IU. In summer, people with dark brown eyes and darker skin convert sunlight from just 15 minutes outside without sunscreen into adequate amounts of vitamin D.
Even during winter just a 10-minute walk midday can keep the body’s vitamin D at healthy levels. During brief winter walks, we receive the greatest benefits when we wear no sunscreen and expose as much skin to the sun as
possible.
Vitamin D can also be obtained from foods. Salmon is one of the best sources of the vitamin. Egg yolks, cheese, mushrooms and beef liver contain smaller quantities of it.
To attract consumers, food companies add vitamin D to some of their milk products. The practice of putting the vitamin into milk began in the 1930s. At that time, many children were suffering from rickets, an illness that is caused by a vitamin D deficiency (不足). It made the children’s bones soft and weak. Adding Vitamin D to milk helped to solve the problem, and it has been available ever since.
For people who still need more vitamin D, there is another option: take vitamin D supplements. These products are widely sold in stores. However, anyone considering taking supplements should consult a physician first.
28. What is the main purpose of this article
A. To note risks associated with a nutrient.
B. To analyze a nutrient’s composition.
C. To introduce a valuable nutrient.
D. To explain how a nutrient was discovered
29. What does this article imply about people during the winter months
A. They aren’t able to meet their deadlines.
B. They often don’t dress warmly enough.
C. They generally tend to remain indoors.
D. They leave lots of work for others to do.
30. According to this article, what should people avoid doing with their skin to get the most benefit
A. Washing it with harsh cleaners.
B. Scratching it to relieve an itch.
C. Allowing it to become extremely dry.
D. Covering it with protective lotion.
31. How does the article define rickets
A. As a revolutionary drug. B. As a health problem.

【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段“At that time, many children were suffering from rickets, an illness that is caused by a vitamin D deficiency (不足).(当时，许多儿童患有佝偻病，这是一种由维生素D缺乏引|起的疾病)”可推知，这篇文章把佝偻病定义为一个健康问题。故选B。

Teaming up with AI
First the robots came for our jobs. Now they’re coming for our hobbies. Google’s DeepMind AI has been busy the past few years, creating programs to take on human players across a variety of games. In 2016 its AlphaGo beat the best Go player in the world. Earlier this year, its AlphaStar defeated two middle — tier players at the popular online game StarCraft II. Now it’s learning to win at multiplayer games.
“Artificially intelligent agents are getting better and better at two-player games, but most real-world endeavors (努力) require teamwork,” DeepMind’s researchers wrote in a paper published in Science in June.
To be sure, computers have been proving their dominance over humans in one-on-one turn-based games such as chess ever since IBM’s Deep Blue beat Russian chess master Garry Kasparov in 1997.
However, successfully using teamwork to win in multiplayer games with complex environments was difficult to achieve.
For this purpose, DeepMind’s researchers designed AI agents that taught themselves how to play first-person game Quake III Arena. The team, led by Maz Jaderberg, worked on a modified version of Quake III Arena.
The game mode they chose was “Capture the Flag”. All the players must work together to steal the other team’s flag while safeguarding their own.
The AI agents “trained” with 12 hours of game data, then matched up against professional game testers. The AI won 75 percent of the time, even when its reaction time artificially slowed down to human levels and when their aiming ability was similarly reduced.
And in order to make improvements, the programmers used various kinds of “rewards” to help the AI players weigh their goals and actions to help them cooperate in the teamwork. They also used randomized maps for each new match.
“That meant the solutions that the agents find have to be general — they cannot just memorize a sequence of actions,” said co-author Wojciech Czarnecki.
The only time humans were able to beat the AI agents was when they teamed up together. A team of one human and one AI agent had a five percent greater win possibility than a team of just AI agents.
Ethan Gach said at the video game news website Kotaku, “It suggests that the AI program is able to play with non-AI teammates.” In the near future, AI may cooperate with human beings in some other fields, such as medicine and other branches of science.
32. What might be the most difficult task for AI agents in multiplayer games
A. Understanding the rules. B. Cooperating with other players
C. Memorizing complex actions. D. Increasing reaction speed.
33. How did the researchers of Google’s DeepMind train AI agents
A. They put them through different games.
B. They gave various “punishments” when AI agents lost the games.
C. They made AI agents team up with non-professional human players.
D. They limited the time for AI agents to complete difficult tasks.
34. What does Gach mean in the last paragraph
A. AI players perform better than humans in a team game.
B. AI programs should be offered more game data.
C. AI players are able to do well with human players.
D. AI programs have been successfully put into use in medicine.
【答案】32. B 33. A 34. C
【解析】
【导语】这一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了人工智能如何适应团队作战并取得胜利。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“However, successfully using teamwork to win in multiplayer games with complex environments was difficult to achieve.(然而，在复杂环境的多人游戏中，成功地利用团队合作赢得胜利是很难实现的)”可知，在多人游戏中对于人工智能代理最困难的任务是与他人合作。故选B。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第七段中“The AI agents ‘trained’ with 12 hours of game data, then matched up against professional game testers.(人工智能代理使用12个小时的游戏数据进行‘训练’，然后与专业游戏测试人员进行匹配)”和第八段“And in order to make improvements, the programmers used various kinds of ‘rewards’ to help the AI players weigh their goals and actions to help them cooperate in the teamwork. They also used randomized maps for each new match.(为了进行改进，程序员使用各种‘奖励’来帮助AI玩家权衡他们的目标和行动，从而帮助他们在团队合作中进行合作。他们还为每一场新比赛使用随机地图)”可知，人工智能代理用12小时的游戏数据“训练”，然后与专业的游戏测试员匹配，程序员使用各种各样的奖励来帮助AI玩家权衡目标和行动来实现团队合作，还为每一场新比赛使用随机地图。由此可知，研究者利用各种不同的游戏来训练人工智能代理。故选A。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中Ethan Gach说的话“It suggests that the AI program is able to play with non-AI teammates.(这表明人工智能程序能够与非人工智能队友一起玩)”可推知，Ethan Gach的意思是人工智能玩家能够与人类玩家进行良好的合作。故选C。

Some students get so nervous before a test. ____35____ Sian Beilock, a professor at the University of Chicago in Illinois, has studied these highly anxious test-takers. The students start worrying about the results. And when they worry, it actually uses up attention and memory resources (资源).
Professor Beilock and another researcher, Gerardo Ramirez, have developed a possible solution. Just before an exam, highly anxious test-takers spend ten minutes writing about their worries about the test.
____36____ They gave them two short maths tests. After the first one, they asked the students to either sit quietly or write about their feelings about the upcoming second test.
Professor Beilock says those who sat quietly scored an average of 12% worse on the second test. ____37____ Next, the researchers used younger students in a biology class. They told them before final exams either to write about their feelings or to think about things unrelated (不相关的) to the test. Professor Beilock says highly anxious students who did the writing got an average grade of B+, compared to a B- for those who did not.
“What we showed is that for students who are highly test-anxious, who’d done our writing intervention (干预), all of a sudden there was no relationship between test anxiety and performance. ____38____”
But what if students do not have a chance to write about their fears immediately before an exam ____39____
A. They were performing just as well as their classmates who don’t normally get nervous in these tests.
B. Researchers asked students to direct their attention from the test.

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一项针对紧张考试的学生的研究。研究表明，考试前表现出高度紧张的学生，写下担忧的事情可以减轻他们的焦虑并提高他们的考试成绩。这项干预可以帮助这部分学生克服他们的考试焦虑并提高他们的表现。如果学生没有机会在考试前写下他们的担忧，那么也可以尝试在平时减少考试压力。
【35题详解】
根据前文“Some students get so nervous before a test. (有些学生在考试前非常紧张。)”以及后文“The students start worrying about the results.( 学生们开始担心考试结果。)”可知，此处强调的是学生们考试前非常紧张。E选项“They do poorly even if they know the material.(即使他们知道材料，他们也做得很差。)”承接前文，指出即使学生们知道考试材料，依旧会在考试前非常紧张，符合语境。故选E。
【36题详解】
根据前文“Professor Beilock and another researcher, Gerardo Ramirez, have developed a possible solution. Just before an exam, highly anxious test-takers spend ten minutes writing about their worries about the test.(贝洛克教授和另一位研究员赫拉尔多·拉米雷斯(Gerardo Ramirez)提出了一种可能的解决方案。考试前，高度焦虑的考生会花十分钟写下他们对考试的担忧。)”可知，此处提出了解决学生焦虑的一种方案即考试前，让高度焦虑的考生会花十分钟写下他们对考试的担忧。C选项“The researchers tested the idea on a group of twenty anxious college students.(研究人员在一组20名焦虑的大学生身上测试了这个想法。)”中的the idea指代前文的让高度焦虑的考生会花十分钟写下他们对考试的担忧，形成呼应。故选C。
【37题详解】
根据前文“Professor Beilock says those who sat quietly scored an average of 12% worse on the second test. (贝洛克教授说，那些安静地坐着的学生在第二次测试中的平均得分要低12%。)”可知，为了解决学生焦虑的一种方案即考试前，让高度焦虑的考生会花十分钟写下他们对考试的担忧，那些安静地坐着的学生在第二次测试中的平均得分要低12%，设空处应该强调那些在第二次考试前写下自己紧张恐惧的学生们的成绩如何，由此形成对比，印证前文研究者们提出的方法。D选项“But the students who had written about their fears improved their performance by an average of 5%.(但是那些写下自己恐惧的学生的成绩平均提高了5%。)”与前文形成对比，指出那些在在第二次考试前写下自己恐惧的学生的成绩平均提高了5%，符合语境。故选D。
【38题详解】
根据前文“What we showed is that for students who are highly test-anxious, who’d done our writing intervention (干预), all of a sudden there was no relationship between test anxiety and performance. (我们发现，对于那些考试焦虑的学生，那些接受了写作干预的学生，突然之间，考试焦虑和表现之间没有任何关系。)”可知，此处描述了经过写作干预后，考试焦虑和成绩之间没有任何关系，设空处应该指出具体的研究结果。A选项“They were performing just as well as their classmates who don’t normally get nervous in these tests.(他们的表现和那些在这些测试中通常不紧张的同学一样好。)”指出，经过写作干预之后，那些焦虑学生的表现和这些测试中通常不紧张的同学一样好，承接前文，强调写作干预的作用，符合语境。故选A。
【39题详解】
根据前文“But what if students do not have a chance to write about their fears immediately before an exam (但是，如果学生没有机会在考试前立即写下他们的恐惧呢？)”可知，此处提出如果没有机会在考试前立即写下他们的恐惧的问题，后文应该就此问题进行回答。G选项“Professor Beilock says students can try it themselves at home r in the library.(贝洛克教授说，学生们可以在家或在图书馆自己尝试。)”指出，学生们可以在考试前，在家或者图书馆自己尝试写出自己的恐惧和焦虑，符合语境。故选G。

阅读下面短文，根据题目要求用英语回答问题。
Do you have trouble finishing your work within a given time Do you find yourself having to scramble (艰难完成) through your work because time is running out It is important to manage your time properly.
First, you should write down your tasks on paper. This is to make sure that you do not miss any of them. Having them written down somewhere ensures that you will get the task completed even if you forget about it. Of course, you need to make sure that the task list is always within your sight. Make sure you have a clear view of your tasks. You can write them down in a diary.
After you have written down your tasks, it is time to plan your action. Which tasks need not be completed as urgently How much time are you going to give each task I suggest that you complete the urgent tasks first, but at the same time, be sure to include some time to take breaks in between. The breaks ensure that you have a moment to run away from stress until you return to continue from where you left off.
Above all, however, don’t procrastinate because it is your number one enemy. Procrastination can also mean that you will not be focused when you do your work. Time is valuable, so do not waste it by procrastinating. Focus on completing the task and get it over once and for all.
40. Where can you write your tasks down
______________________________________________________________________________________
41. Why should we take breaks between tasks
______________________________________________________________________________________
42. Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why.
Our biggest enemy when we manage our time properly is that we will not be focused.
______________________________________________________________________________________

______________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】40. On paper.
41. Because we can have a moment to run away from stress.
42. Our biggest enemy when we manage our time properly is that we will not be focused. Our biggest enemy is procrastination.
43. Yes, I do. Because time is precious and limited, managing our time properly can improve our efficiency, improve our quality of life and increase our productivity and contribute to our success.
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。文章讲述了如何合理的安排自己的时间，在给定的时间内完成工作。给了我们三点建议，首先列一张任务清单，并确保这张清单在自己的视野范围之内；其次完成紧要任务后给自己一个放松的时间；最后不要因为拖延而浪费时间。
【40题详解】
考查细节理解。根据第二段“First, you should write down your tasks on paper. (首先，你应该把你的任务写在纸上。)”可知，可以在纸上写下任务。故填On paper。
【41题详解】
考查推理判断。根据第三段“I suggest that you complete the urgent tasks first, but at the same time, be sure to include some time to take breaks in between. The breaks ensure that you have a moment to run away from stress until you return to continue from where you left off. (我建议你先完成紧急的任务，但与此同时，一定要留出一些休息的时间。休息确保你有时间逃离压力，直到你回到你离开的地方继续。)可知，任务之间要休息一下是因为这样做我们可以有时间逃离压力。故填Because we can have a moment to run away from stress。
【42题详解】
考查细节理解。根据最后一段“Above all, however, don’t procrastinate because it is your number one enemy. (但最重要的是，不要拖延，因为拖延是你的头号敌人。)可知，最大的敌人是拖延而不是没有关注，因此we will not be focused错误。故填Our biggest enemy when we manage our time properly is that we will not be focused. Because our biggest enemy is procrastination。
【43题详解】
开放回答题。答案不唯一， 表述合理恰当即可，例如我认为合理管理时间很重要，因为时间很宝贵也很有限，合理管理时间能提高我们的效率，增加我们的生产力，提高我们的生活质量，更有助于我们获得成功。故填Yes, I think so. Because time is precious and limited, managing our time properly can improve our efficiency, improve our quality of life and increase our productivity and contribute to our success。

“The first prize for the bicycle race is $1,000,” said Mr. Hakansson.
“The judges won’t let you race,” said Mrs. Hakansson. “You’re 66 years old.”
“I am going to race,” said Mr. Hakansson. “And I am going to win!”
Mrs. Hakansson only smiled. She knew he couldn’t be in the race. He was 66 years old. But she also knew that he would try.
Mr. Hakansson went to see the judges. “I want to be in that race,” he said.
“Go home to your rocking chair!” said one of the judges. “You are too old. This race lasts for days. The men go from one end of Sweden to the other. That’s more than 1,000 miles. You would never make it.”
“We’ll see,” said Mr. Hakansson.
Over 1,000 men wanted to be in the race. The judges picked only 50. They were all strong young men. They went by train to the town where the race would begin. There they spent days getting ready.
Mr. Hakansson was not one of the 50. So he couldn’t ride on the train.
“Then I’ll ride my bicycle,” he said. And he did. He rode 1,000 miles just to get where the race was to start!
At last, the race began. The 50 strong young men climbed on their bicycles. One of the judges fired a gun. And the young men were off!
Close behind them came Mr. Hakansson. His long white beard waved in the wind. “You can keep me out of the race,” he said. “But you can’t keep me off the road!”
And then Mr. Hakansson moved in front of the 50 strong young men!
After a while he came to a small town. The street was lined with people. They cheered as Mr. Hakansson rode by.
“Look, Daddy,” said a small boy. “There goes Supergrandpa!” Everyone laughed.
A writer for a paper heard the boy. He took a picture of Mr. Hakansson and wrote a story about him. From then on everybody in Sweden was cheering for “Supergrandpa”.
Day after day the race went on. Each night the 50 strong men rested. But not Supergrandpa! He rode for three days and three nights without any sleep at all. Then he rested only three hours!
Supergrandpa didn’t even eat very much. He didn’t want to leave the road. But sometimes people brought him cake, coffee and berries. Then he would eat while sitting on his bicycle.
For more than six days Supergrandpa rode on. In all that time, he had only 10 hours of sleep.
At last he crossed the finish line — a day ahead of the strong men. All the town were there to meet him. Everybody cheered and cheered. A band from the fire station played. Dogs barked. Children danced around Supergrandpa.
25. Mr. Hakansson got to the town where the race began by ________.
A. running there B. taking the train
C. driving his car D. riding his bicycle
26. Mr. Hakansson crossed the finish line ________.
A. the day after he started the race B. a few minutes before another racer
C. a day before the other cyclists D. after ten hours of sleep

A. An Admirable Supergrandpa B. An Exciting Riding Race
C. An Unbelievable Experience D. An Unforgettable Old Man

In the dead of winter, we don’t typically think about spending time outdoors, but according to many physicians we should. The sun is our greatest source of a vitamin that is essential for good health — vitamin D.
This important nutrient (营养素) strengthens bones and teeth and is linked to the prevention of heart disease, cancer and many other life-threatening diseases.
The recommended daily requirement is 400-600 IU. In summer, people with dark brown eyes and darker skin convert sunlight from just 15 minutes outside without sunscreen into adequate amounts of vitamin D.
Even during winter, just a 10-minute walk midday can keep the body’s vitamin D at healthy levels. During brief winter walks, we receive the greatest benefits when we wear no sunscreen and expose as much skin to the sun as
possible.
Vitamin D can also be obtained from foods. Salmon is one of the best sources of the vitamin. Egg yolks, cheese, mushrooms and beef liver contain smaller quantities of it.
To attract consumers, food companies add vitamin D to some of their milk products. The practice of putting the vitamin into milk began in the 1930s. At that time, many children were suffering from rickets, an illness that is caused by a vitamin D deficiency (不足). It made the children’s bones soft and weak. Adding Vitamin D to milk helped to solve the problem, and it has been available ever since.
For people who still need more vitamin D, there is another option: take vitamin D supplements. These products are widely sold in stores. However, anyone considering taking supplements should consult a physician first.
28. What is the main purpose of this article
A. To note risks associated with a nutrient.
B. To analyze a nutrient’s composition.
C. To introduce a valuable nutrient.
D. To explain how a nutrient was discovered
29. What does this article imply about people during the winter months
A. They aren’t able to meet their deadlines.
B. They often don’t dress warmly enough.
C. They generally tend to remain indoors.
D. They leave lots of work for others to do.
30. According to this article, what should people avoid doing with their skin to get the most benefit
A. Washing it with harsh cleaners.
B. Scratching it to relieve an itch.
C. Allowing it to become extremely dry.
D. Covering it with protective lotion.
31. How does the article define rickets
A. As a revolutionary drug. B. As a health problem.
C. As an economical treatment. D. As a mental disorder.

Teaming up with AI
First the robots came for our jobs. Now they’re coming for our hobbies. Google’s DeepMind AI has been busy the past few years, creating programs to take on human players across a variety of games. In 2016 its AlphaGo beat the best Go player in the world. Earlier this year, its AlphaStar defeated two middle — tier players at the popular online game StarCraft II. Now it’s learning to win at multiplayer games.
“Artificially intelligent agents are getting better and better at two-player games, but most real-world endeavors (努力) require teamwork,” DeepMind’s researchers wrote in a paper published in Science in June.
To be sure computers have been proving their dominance over humans in one-on-one turn-based games such as chess ever since IBM’s Deep Blue beat Russian chess master Garry Kasparov in 1997.
However, successfully using teamwork to win in multiplayer games with complex environments was difficult to achieve.
For this purpose DeepMind’s researchers designed AI agents that taught themselves how to play first-person game Quake III Arena. The team, led by Maz Jaderberg, worked on a modified version of Quake III Arena.
The game mode they chose was “Capture the Flag”. All the players must work together to steal the other team’s flag while safeguarding their own.
The AI agents “trained” with 12 hours of game data, then matched up against professional game testers. The AI won 75 percent of the time, even when its reaction time artificially slowed down to human levels and when their aiming ability was similarly reduced.
And in order to make improvements, the programmers used various kinds of “rewards” to help the AI players weigh their goals and actions to help them cooperate in the teamwork. They also used randomized maps for each new match.
“That meant the solutions that the agents find have to be general — they cannot just memorize a sequence of actions,” said co-author Wojciech Czarnecki.
The only time humans were able to beat the AI agents was when they teamed up together. A team of one human and one AI agent had a five percent greater win possibility than a team of just AI agents.
Ethan Gach said at the video game news website Kotaku, “It suggests that the AI program is able to play with non-AI teammates.” In the near future, AI may cooperate with human beings in some other fields, such as medicine and other branches of science.
32. What might be the most difficult task for AI agents in multiplayer games
A. Understanding the rules. B. Cooperating with other players
C. Memorizing complex actions. D. Increasing reaction speed.
33. How did the researchers of Google’s DeepMind train AI agents
A. They put them through different games.
B. They gave various “punishments” when AI agents lost the games.
C. They made AI agents team up with non-professional human players.
D. They limited the time for AI agents to complete difficult tasks.
34. What does Gach mean in the last paragraph
A. AI players perform better than humans in a team game.
B. AI programs should be offered more game data.
C. AI players are able to do well with human players.
D. AI programs have been successfully put into use in medicine.

Some students get so nervous before a test. ____35____ Sian Beilock, a professor at the University of Chicago in Illinois, has studied these highly anxious test-takers. The students start worrying about the results. And when they worry, it actually uses up attention and memory resources (资源).
Professor Beilock and another researcher, Gerardo Ramirez, have developed a possible solution. Just before an exam, highly anxious test-takers spend ten minutes writing about their worries about the test.
____36____ They gave them two short maths tests. After the first one, they asked the students to either sit quietly or write about their feelings about the upcoming second test.
Professor Beilock says those who sat quietly scored an average of 12% worse on the second test. ____37____ Next, the researchers used younger students in a biology class. They told them before final exams either to write about their feelings or to think about things unrelated (不相关的) to the test. Professor Beilock says highly anxious students who did the writing got an average grade of B+, compared to a B- for those who did not.
“What we showed is that for students who are highly test-anxious, who’d done our writing intervention (干预), all of a sudden there was no relationship between test anxiety and performance. ____38____”
But what if students do not have a chance to write about their fears immediately before an exam ____39____
A. They were performing just as well as their classmates who don’t normally get nervous in these tests.
B. Researchers asked students to direct their attention from the test.
C. The researchers tested the idea on a group of twenty anxious college students.
D. But the students who had written about their fears improved their performance by an average of 5%.
E They do poorly even if they know the material.
F. It doesn’t matter where we write about our worries before an exam.
G. Professor Beilock says students can try it themselves at home r in the library.
