Exam time is the most stressful (最有压力的) period of the year. You've worked all the term on your classes and now it's the time to prove what you have learned. With so much at stake, it is easy to get stressed about your exams. However, with the right amount or hard work and focus you can pass your tests    1!

When I was in school, I used to get very stressed over my examinations. So did my friends. Some people stopped eating and others ate too much! Some     2 and others burned themselves out! The most important thing to remember when studying is not to panic! Take the middle path---stay calm, eat healthy food and get your rest. Stressing out and _3___yourself too hard is just as dangerous as not studying enough. A tired, overworked brain is just as useless as a stupid, empty one!

So, what do you do? Set aside a time each day for study and a time For __4 . You may have less time to relax than usual, but you still need to let your brain rest for a few moments. Get plenty of sleep. If you are_ 5  , information will not stick in your memory. Finally, eat healthy food that fuels your body and mind.

It does no good to look at your exams like the rest of your life   6  them. Instead, just view them as another obstacle (障碍物) you will overcome. You have overcome all kinds of obstacles in your life so far. With the right amount of work and focus, you will pass your examinations with flying colors! High school is right around the corner.

     What should we put on if tomorrow is a hot day? A tight-fitting shirt with long sleeves or loose-fitting(宽松的) T-shirt?

     "I'd my nice colourful T-shirt," said Shen Yuanyuan, a Junior 2 girl from Shanghai. " Tight shirts can be a problem in PE class while loose-fitting T-shirts aren't. Like my sports wear. they make me feel free and comfortable,"

     Comfort. That's it. It's one of the reasons why people have loved T-shirts for about a hundred years.

     But comfort is not the only reason. T-shirts are also very popular with the young because they're simple and cheap.

     As time goes on, people arc finding even more reasons to love T-shirts.

     Because of its simple design, everybody can add their own style to a T-shirt and make it special in their own way. Now, T-shirts arc more than just a piece of clothing.

     T-shirts can be part of a school or class uniform. Will the same design; they can show others that a group of people are all members of a group and those them something common.

     T-shirts also help people voice their opinions by having thought-provoking(发人深省的) pictures and some statements on them. Some animal-loves wear T-shirts with pictures of their pets on them. Without a voice, they can still call on people to protect animals.

     T-shirts with advertisements catch people's eyes, so companies like T-shirts too! Summer drinks and cartoon characters … all add more color and designs to T-shirts.

     T-shirts can also help you let out your feelings. You could wear a T-shirt with" Leave me alone. I got a bad result in my exam." on it and walk around! Will this make you feel better? Might do. At least it might stop people bothering you fro a while!

     Sometimes stress can turn into something hand if you keep having stressful feelings over a long time. This kind of stress isn't going to help you. It can make you sick. You may have trouble paying attention(注意力) 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.
