【英语时差8,16】在考试时保持冷静(1)

Learning¹ to Keep Your Cool during Tests Have you ever felt so anxious during an examination² that you couldn’t even put down the answers you knew? If so, you were suffering from what is known as test anxiety. According to psychologist Ralph Trimble, test anxiety is a very real problem for many people. When you’re worried over your performance on an exam, your heart beats faster and your pulse speeds up. These reactions start others: You may sweat more than normal or suffer from a stomachache or headache. Your field of vision³ narrows and becomes tunnel-like. Before you know it, you’re having difficulty focusing. As a student you must also realize that if you leave too much studying until a day or two before the examination, you can’t do the impossible and learn it all. Instead, concentrate on what you can do and try to think what questions are likely to be asked and what you can do in the time left for studying
