Armed only with iPhones, the inventive rock band Atomic Tom has gone viral(廣為流傳) by way of the New York subway. The band has scored an Internet hit with the video to the song “Take Me Out.”

Singer Luke White says the production was a top-secret operation.

“We didn't tell anyone about this. It was completely top-secret from our family, from our friends, from our label, our management, everybody. So the first time that people saw this video was last Friday when we put it on YouTube,” explained White.

Since uploading the video to YouTube, band members have spent several days refreshing the page to watch the number of hits rise.

The video has also made its way around Twitter as many people have shared it with their friends.

“I mean, it still hasn't quite hit. It's just kind of blowing our minds right now that we're getting this: many people are fond of it, and they're sharing it with their friends. We don't know what it's like really to have something that's viral, so all of this is very new to us.” said Eric Espiritu, the lead guitarist of the band.

White explains how the video came together:

“We did our research with the applications( 應(yīng)用程序) and found applications that worked out really well with the instruments and then we plugged them all into, plugged our phones into mini-battery powered amplifiers(擴(kuò)音器) that we put underneath our seats, and we did a lot of, you know, practices, in terms of figuring out what the balance of the sound and like who was overpowering, who was too loud or who was too soft.”

The idea for the video came from Espiritu's younger brother Benjamin. The younger Espiritu directed the video from his initial concept through the final edit and upload to the Internet. 

“I've seen a lot of the music applications come out, and I've never actually had the chance to play with them," says Ben Espiritu. "When I started hearing about how they sound and everything, I thought it might be unique to take it one step further and then create an entire band just performing solely(單曲) on the iPhones, and I thought it would be a pretty cool idea.”

Ben says the success of the band’s music video is a credit to the talent and ability of the musicians, but it's also a sign of the times.

“It really comes down to seeing something different, seeing something unique, and I think that that's always, in any type of art form, what will speak to people, and I think it does reflect the times that we live in, taking a smart phone and then being able to turn it into an instrument, not only just an instrument, but making it sound really good.”

Who first saw the video of the song “Take Me Out”?

   A. Their friends       B. The people on line

    C. Their family        D. Their management

What is the band members’ attitude towards the sudden fame?

   A. They are thrilled.

   B. They are quite used to it.

   C. They are kind of confused.

   D. They are so excited as to tell everyone they know.

How did the video come into being?

   A. The band copied from it other musicians.

   B. It had already existed in the iPhones before they bought them.

    C. The band created it with the help of the applications in the iPhones.

    D. The band made full use of the traditional instruments to make the song.

What is the significance of the success of the band's music video?

    A. It has introduced us several talented musicians.

    B. It has made the musicians into millionaires.

    C. It teaches the young a big lesson.

    D. It reflects the talent and ability of the musicians and the times that we live in.

Some students get so nervous before a test, they do poorly even if they know the material. Sian Beilock has studied these highly anxious test-takers.
Sian Beilock: “They start worrying about the consequences. 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.I talk about it as your cognitive horsepower that you could otherwise be using to focus on the exam.”
Professor Beilock and another researcher, Gerardo Ramirez, have developed a possible solution. Just before an exam, highly anxious test-takers spend ten minutes writing about their worries about the test.
Sian Beilock: “what we think happens is when students put it down on paper , they think about the worst that could happen and they reappraise the situation. They might realize it’s not as had as they might think it was before and, in essence(本質(zhì)上), it prevents these thoughts from popping up when they’re actually taking a test.”
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 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 their performance would affect other students as part of a team effort.
Professor Beilock says those who sat quietly scored an average of twelve 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 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 unrelated to the test.
Prefessor Beilock says highly anxious students who did the writing got an average grade of B+, compared to a B- for those who did not.
Sian Beilock: “What we showed is that for students who are highly test-anxious, who’d done our writing intervention, 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 don’t normally get nervous in these 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. 
【小題1】What may happen if students have the problem of test anxiety?

A.Test anxiety can improve students’ performance to some degree.
B.Students’ attention and memory resources run out when worried.
C.Students may not be admitted into their favorite college if worried
D.Test anxiety is sure to cause students to fail the test.
【小題2】Which of the following if TRUE?
A.In the first math test, students who sat quietly performed better.
B.In the second math test, students who wrote about their feelings did worse.
C.Some college students are highly anxious test-takers while others are not in the tests.
D.The result in the math test agrees with that in the biology test.
【小題3】What does the underlined phrase “popping up” mean?
A.Giving outB.Fading awayC.Becoming clearly D.Appearing suddenly
【小題4】what is most probably Sian Beilock?
A.A psychology professor.B.A philosophy researcher.
C.A politics professor D.A tutor
【小題5】What is the main idea of the passage?
A.It is a common practice for students being worried before a test.
B.Being worried before tests does harm to students’ performance.
C.Anxious students overcome test anxiety by writing down fears.
D.It is important for students to overcome test anxiety.
