第二部分阅读理解（共25小题；每小题2分，满分50分）

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中选出最佳选项。

A

Schools are taking exam anxiety more seriously now because tests have become very important in determining their performance under the federal No Child Left Behind law. Research suggests that students do better when they're relaxed and in a good mood.

Craft was one of about 800 l0th-graders around the country who participated last year in the study by the California-based institute of HeartMath. It found that 55% of l0th-graders often had high levels of test anxiety and their scores were lower than those of students who used the company's techniques to improve relaxation and mood,

This year states must start testing children on math and reading in Grade 3 through 8 under the federal No Child Left Behind Act, which also requires that students take a science test at least once in elementary, middle and high school by 2013-2014.

Bowers is director of counseling for Tucson Unified School District, where some schools use a program called Brain Gym. The program teaches children to take deep breathing exercises to relax and focus on good memories using a series of movements also designed to improve, blood flow to the brain.

The idea of programs like HeartMath and Brain Gym is to get participants' minds working efficiently.

“It has worked well at East Side Charter School in Willington, Delaware. Once they started using

Heartmath, many children at the K-7 school have been able to reduce exam solicitude, as a result, math

and reading score improved." said Bowers.

“They are taught to be in a pleasant place... to breathe deeply arid slowly. And, close their eyes and

imagine something they love like going with their grandfather to the ice cream store." Payyon says.

The HeartMath Institute also suggests getting at least eight hours of sleep the night before a test and

having a healthy breakfast that morning.

41. What does the underlined word in the fifth paragraph probably mean?

A. Chances. B. Anxiety. C. Grades. D. Content.

42. What relaxation techniques should we take to lower exam anxiety?

A. Taking deep breathing and recalling movement exercises.

B. Getting students' minds working efficiently by more tests.

C. Advising students to get more sleep before a test.

D. Making students take a test in a pleasant place.

43. What's American schools' main purpose to introduce relaxation techniques?

A. To make an advertisement for a company.

B. To introduce a program called Brain Gym.

C. To improve the students' test scores.

D. To reduce examination anxiety of students.

44. What does the underlined word '- it" in Paragraph 2 refer to?

A. The Institute B. The country C. The study D. Craft

45. According to the passage. Bowers' attitude towards the programs is ______.

B

I decided a few months ago that I was going to treat myself to a 4-day getaway from Los Angeles and visit Chicago. I got a free airplane ticket, but had to pay the hotel in cash, which 1 really couldn't afford. I found a travel website where a discounted 3-night stay was purchased from a recently opened hotel.

About three weeks before the trip, I had to regretfully cancel and only then realized the room, while transferable (可转手的) to another person, couldn't be changed to a later date and wasn't refundable. For the next two weeks I tried selling it on Craig's list with no success. Five days before the "big weekend", I gave up trying to get any money back and decided I'd contact some acquaintances who live in Chicago and offer someone a free "staycation". After trying a handful of people all of whom already had their own plans,! was determined to have the room not go to waste.

That's when it suddenly occurred to me that I was looking at the rooms in the wrong way. Instead of viewing them for vacation purposes, surely there must be a way to put them to good use, and that was when the idea that some sort of shelter might be able to use it. I even
