Some people find exam time so bad that they become ill, because they are afraid of failing; they are afraid of letting their parents and families down. If exams are really making you ill or worried, don’t hide your feelings. Talk to someone about it. If one person doesn’t help you, ask someone else.‎ How to get through exams? Here are some top tips by educational psychologists （教育心理学家）：‎ ‎●Ask a teacher or tutor about how to revise, and exam skills—how to work when you are in an exam.‎ ‎●Take short rests during your time of work and revision. If your mind is tired, it will not remember well.‎ ‎●Plan your work: revise at times when you know you will work at your best.‎ ‎●Get enough sleep, and eat healthy food.‎ ‎●If you feel ill, talk to someone about your worries. But don’t be too relaxed! Some stress over exams makes you work hard for them.‎ ‎●If it upsets（沮丧） you to talk to your friends about an exam when it is finished, don’t do it! In fact, don’t even think about the exam you have finished. What is done is done. You cannot change what you have written!‎ To this advice, we would add:‎ If you are studying in the evening, don’t go straight to bed afterwards. Your mind will still be “going round and round”---thinking too much. Do something else, maybe walk or get exercise. Choose something that will relax you, and make you think of other things.‎ Problems Suggestions ‎---don’t know how to work for an exam Ask a teacher or tutor about how to revise.‎ ‎---feel tired ‎46.‎ ‎---feel ill or worried ‎47.‎ ‎---can’t sleep well Don’t go straight to bed after studying in the evening.‎ ‎---it upsets you to talk to your friends about an exam when it is finished ‎48.‎ ‎（D）‎ Hi! My name is Wang Ming. I’m fifteen years old, and I’m a Grade 3 student in Shanghai in the year 2053!‎ I expect you find that pretty hard to believe. Let me explain. This book is a journal I wrote last month for a very special competition. I won the first prize, which was that my book would become part of the first ever experiment in time travel. It would be put in a time capsule to be sent back almost fifty years into the past. So, if everything went according to the plan, you should be reading this in about the year 2005. ‎ Do you know what time capsules are? They are usually containers made of some very ‎ strong material--- so strong that it should last for hundreds or thousands of years without being destroyed. Inside these containers, you put things that are typical of the place in which you live. For example, in 2005 you might put a copy of a popular comic, a CD by a famous musician, videos of television programs --- all sorts of things. The idea is that when people in another century open up the time capsule. They’ll be able to see what life was like in the past.‎ Until now, all time capsules have been left for people in the future to find. This one is the first that has been sent from the future to the past. I don’t understand how it’s going to be done, but I think it’s a really cool idea. If it works, my own grandparents will be able to read this when they were secondary school students! But if my grandparents did read this, why haven’t they ever mentioned it to me?‎ ‎（ ） 49.
