The issue is exam anxiety, which manifests in various ways such as sleeplessness, loss of appetite, and constant worry.Some students experience headaches or stomachaches, while others bee irritable and easily distracted. These symptoms not only affect our academic performance but also our overall wellbeing.To address this issue, I suggest that the school could organize workshops on stress management and time management skills. Additionally, providing access to a school counselor for oneonone sessions could be beneficial. Teachers could also incorporate relaxation exercises into their lessons to help us stay calm.I hope my letter will prompt some positive changes to help us all cope better with exam stress.Yours,Li Ming 【书面表达2】My condition was serious and I needed an immediate operation. Sharon didn't just go into the hospital with me. She helped me fill out the intake paperwork, paid the fee and even took me to the bathroom. She also tried to contact my family, but they were outside of the city and couldn't go back in time. Still Sharon chose to stay with me. I tried to persuade her to leave, to get to work. And each time, She refused. Once it was time for me to be seen by doctors,Sharon left.Six months later. Ifully recovered and managed to get her address. I decided to thank her in her presence. As I got to her house, I gently knocked the door. It was Sharon who came out and opened thedoor. I could see surprise in her eyes. “Sharon, it's me, Lauren. I've e to thank you for saving my life!” She hugged me and said.“I wish I could have done more for you.” Such simple words really carried me away. It is this total stranger who shows me the faith in humanity.【听力原文】1. W: Pete, it’s stopped raining. Shall we go out for a bike ride?M: I’m watching TV now.

自考《英语二》真题试卷及参考答案

自考《英语二》真题试卷及参考答案20222022年自考《英语二》真题试卷及参考答案Lacking in Self-Esteem (自尊)? Good for you!According to psychological and educational theories, self-esteem is essential for a successful life. Generations of children, especially minority kids, have been educated according to the theory that they lack self-esteem, and that this deficiency is central to any problems they may have in making their way in the world.Well, guess what? A new research has found that self-esteem can be just as high among grade D students and drunk drivers as it is among Nobel Prize winners and former presidents. In fact, people with high self-esteem can engage in far more anti-social behavior than those with lowself-esteem. “We used to believe that high self-esteem would cause all sorts of positive consequences and that if we raised self-esteem, people would do better in life,” a researcher said. “Mostly, the data have failed to support that.” Racists, street thugs (恶棍) and school bullies (恶霸) all have high scores on the self-esteem tests. And you can see why. If you think you’re highly gifted, you’re particularly offended if other people don’t treat you that way. So you hit out or commit crimes to defend your pride. After all, who are they to suggest that you could be doing something wrong? What do they know?Self-esteem can also be an educational concern. College teachers are constantly complaining about the high self-esteem of their students. Whenevery grade in the school is assessed so as to make the kid feel good rather than to give an accurate measure of his work, the kid can developself-esteem dangerously unrelated to the truth. When he’s told he is getting a C grade in college, he can then get deeply offended or extremely angry. Weak professors give in to the pressure – hence, grade inflation, which results in their students’ vague touch with reality.1. It is believed that minority kids often have self-esteem problem.A.

Chemicals for farming first came up at the turn of the 20th century. Widespread use of chemicals began after World War II. In the 1950s and 60s farmers started using chemical fertilizers and pesticides (杀虫剂). Recently, however, more and more farmers have been returning to organic farming.In organic farming, farm products are produced in more natural ways. Crops, meat and other food are produced without chemicals. Chemical fertilizers, pesticides, and growth hormones (激素) are forbidden. Farmers enrich the soil with natural fertilizers. They pull out weeds by hand. Hay and straw are put between the rows of plants to stop weeding. They rely on the natural enemies of pests to control pests. Animals are fed organically and can eat grass outdoors. Cows, for example, are kept in pastures (草场) and fields. Vegetables and fruit are also produced with organic methods.Organic farming enjoys many advantages. For example, crop rotation can preserve the good qualities of soils. The growing of different crops can keep soils healthy and fertile. Organic farming is healthier for farm workers, and there are fewer remains of chemicals in food.

《高级英语》课文逐句翻译(11)lesson11谈睡眠Lesson Eleven On Getting off to Sleep人真是充满矛盾啊!毫无疑问,幽默是惟一帮助我们摆脱矛盾的办法,要是没有它,我们就会死于烦恼。
What a bundle of contradictions is a man!Surety,humour is the saving grace of us,for without it we should die of vexation.在我看来,没有什么比睡眠更能说明事物间的矛盾。
With me,nothing illustrates the contrariness of things better than the matter of sleep.比如,我打算写一篇文章,面前放好了笔、墨和几张白纸,准保没写几个字我就会困得要命,无论当时是几点都会那样。
If,for example,my intention is to write an essay,and 1 have before me ink and pens and several sheets of virgin paper,you may depend upon it that before I have gone very far I feel an overpowering desire for sleep,no matter what time of the day it is.我瞪着那似乎在谴责我的白纸,直到眼前一片模糊,声音也难以辨清,只有靠意志力才能勉强坚持。
I stare at the reproachfully blank paper until sights and sounds become dim and confused,and it is only by an effort of will that I can continue at all.即使这时,我也会迷迷糊糊地像在做梦一样继续坚持工作。
