We often find that weekends and holidays feel so short while classes and work feel so long. Actually, though, we know that this is not true. But we still wonder where that strange feeling comes from. In fact, this is one of the ways that we’re tricked by time, according to the website All That Is Interesting. The website lists several wrong impressions we often have about time. Let's have a look. First of all, emotions affect our time-keeping abilities: Negative emotions, especially anxiety and boredom, make time seem longer because they make us concentrate more on the passage of time. However, when we are enjoying ourselves, we pay more attention to what we are doing and are likely to lose track of (失去對...的意識) time.

Here is another example. In 2007, a group of scientists carried out a test. In the test, people fell 50 meters into a safety net and were then asked about their experience. Although the experience took shorter than 3 seconds, the people thought it was much longer than it actually was.

This is because of the way our bodies reply to danger, according to the scientists. Our bodies produce a chemical called adrenaline (腎上腺素) when we are faced with danger. It allows us to concentrate better so that we can stay alive. As a result, we are able to remember far more details (細(xì)節(jié)) over a short period of time, which makes it seem like time is going more slowly.

Another situation when we make mistakes about time is when we take afternoon naps（午覺）. Have you ever had trouble telling what time it is after a long nap? That's because the best amount of time for a nap is 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, you enter a new stage of sleep called slow-wave sleep. If you wake up mid-way in this stage, it will take a while before you can correctly perceive（感知）time again. Yes, time can be mysterious and there is no way to control it. So, perhaps the best thing to do is to make good use of every minute.

1.According to the passage, what possibly makes people feel so long?

A.weekends and holidays B.weekends and work. C.classes and work D.holidays and work

2.Which will not affect our time-keeping abilities according to the website listing?

A.negative emotions B.positive emotions C.adrenaline D.scientists

3.According to the passage, in which situation don’t we make mistakes about time?

A.We wake up after a long nap.

B.We fall down from a high place.

C.We have many problems left in the test paper, but the time is up.

D.We go to school on the school bus as usual on weekdays.

4.According to the passage, what will NOT happen when we are faced with danger?

A.Our bodies will produce a chemical called adrenaline.

B.We are able to feel that time seems to go more slowly.

C.Adrenaline will make us concentrate better to stay alive.

D.We will forget far more details over a short period of time.

5.Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?

A.Negative emotions make time seem longer.

B.We feel like time is going more slowly while having fun.

C.Time can be mysterious and there is no way to control it.

D.If we wake up mid-way after a long nap, maybe we can't correctly perceive time again soon.

Some students get so nervous before an exam that they do poorly even if they know the material. Sian Beilock, a psychology (心理學(xué)) professor at the University of Chicago, has studied these highly anxious (焦慮的) exam-takers.

“They start worrying about the results. They might even start worrying about whether this exam is going to prevent them from getting into the college they want. And when we worry，it actually uses up attention and memory resources that we could otherwise be using to focus (集中) on the exam.” says Sian Beilock.

The researchers tested the idea on a group of twenty anxious college students. They gave them two short math tests. After the first one, they asked the students to either sit quietly or write about their feelings about the coming second test.

The researchers added to the pressure. They told the students that those who did well on the second exam would get money. They also told them that their performance would affect other students as part of a team effort.

Professor Beilock says those who sat quietly scored an average of 20% worse on the second exam. But the students who had written about their fears improved their performance by an average of 5%.

Next, the researchers used younger students in a biology class. They told them before final exams either to write about their feelings or to think about things not connected to the test.

Professor Beilock says highly anxious students who wrote about their feelings got an average grade of B＋，compared with a B－for those who did not.

But what can they do 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 they can still improve their performance.

1.In which paragraph does the author introduce the background of his study?

A. In the last paragraph. B. In the second paragraph.

C. In the third paragraph. D. In the first paragraph.

2.According to Sian Beilock, if you want to succeed in an exam, you should ________.

A. focus your attention on the exam B. be as serious as you can about the exam

C. set clear study goals and keep them D. make a careful preparation for the exam

3.The underlined word “it” in the last paragraph means “_______”.

A. looking for a chance B. preparing for the exam

C. writing about the feelings D. taking the exam

4.We can infer (推斷) from the study that students who sit quietly before the exam ______.

A. are more likely to get better exam results

B. worry more about the exam in their mind

C. have a positive attitude towards exam results

D. have a strong will to be successful in the exam

Some time ago I discovered that one of my chairs had a broken leg. I didn’t think there would be any difficulty in getting it repaired, as there are a lot of antique (古董) shops near my home. So I left home one morning carrying the chair with me. I went into the first shop expecting a friendly reception(接待). I was quite wrong. The man wouldn’t even look at my chair.

The second shop, though slightly more polite, was just the same, and the third and the fourth--so I decided that my way must be wrong.

I entered the fifth shop with a plan in my mind. I placed the chair on the floor and said to the shopkeeper, “Would you like to buy a chair?” He looked it over carefully and said, “Yes, not a bad chair. How much do you want for it, sir?” “Twenty pounds,” I said. “OK,” he said, “I’ll give you twenty pounds.” “It’s got a slightly broken leg,” I said. “Yes, I saw that, it’s nothing.”

Everything was going according to my plan and l was getting excited. “What will you do with it?” I asked. “Oh, it will be easy to sell once the repair is done.” “I’ll buy it,” I said. “What do you mean? You’ve just sold it to me,” he said. “Yes, I know but I’ve changed my mind. I am sorry. I’ll give you twenty-seven pounds for it.” “You must be crazy,” he said. Then, suddenly the penny dropped. “I know what you want. You want me to repair your chair.” “You’re right,” I said. “And what would you have done if I had walked in and said, ‘Would you repair this chair for me?’” “I wouldn’t have agreed to do it,” he said. “We don’t do repairs, not enough money in it and too much trouble. But I’II repair this for you. Shall we say for five pounds?” He was a very nice man and was greatly amused by the whole thing.

1.We can learn from the text that in the first shop the writer .

A.was rather impolite B.was warmly received

C.asked the shopkeeper to buy his chair D.asked the shopkeeper to repair his chair

2.The expression "the penny dropped" in the last paragraph means the shopkeeper .
