Sian Beilock, a psychology professor at the University of Chicago in Illinois, has studied these highly anxious testtakers.Sian Beilock says, “They start worrying about the consequenc
9、es. They might even start worrying about whether this exam is going to prevent them from getting into the college they want. And when they worry, it actually uses up attention and memory resources. I talk about them as their cognitive(认知的)horsepower that they could otherwise be using to focus on the
10、 exam.”Professor Beilock and another researcher, Gerardo Ramirez, have developed a possible solution. Just before an exam, highly anxious testtakers spend ten minutes writing about their worries about the test. The researchers tested the idea on a group of 20 anxious college students. They gave them
11、 two short math tests. After the first one, they asked the students to either sit quietly or write about their feelings about the upcoming second test. The researchers added to the pressure. They told the students that those who did well on the second test would get money. They also told them that t
12、heir performance would affect other students as part of a team effort.Professor Beilock says those who sat quietly scored an average of 12 percent worse on the second test. But the students who had written about their fears improved their performance by an average of five percent.Next, the researche
13、rs 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 to the test.Professor Beilock says highly anxious students who did the writing got an average grade of B， compared to a Bfor those who did not.The re
14、search shows that for students who are highly testanxious, whod done the writing intervention(排解), all of a sudden there was no relationship between test anxiety and performance. Those students most likely to worry were performing just as well as their classmates who dont normally get nervous in the
15、se testing situations.But what if students do not have a chance to write about their fears immediately before an exam or presentation? Professor Beilock says students can try it themselves at home or in the library and still improve their performance.16The purpose of the passage is _A. to build the

20、 short excerpts of a film. Teachers use the subtitles(字幕)function on the DVD players to turn the text on and off to help them practise listening and improving their writing skills. 3The school has found that children are more eager to learn and better able to answer questions on what they have seen
21、and heard because they pay greater attention to the movies than the usual paperbased comprehension sheets.Teachers said they had seen vast progress in participation(参与) and understanding in classes.Before the DVD programme was introduced, almost every child would leave one to two questions in their
22、comprehension exercises blank.Now，they not only attempt all questions but provide lengthy answers too. 4In contrast，“Indians are yet to realise the need to make English teaching fun，” says Professor David Crystal recently.He is one of Britains and worlds foremost experts on language，and currently wo
