根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。
You have
an important test tomorrow. But
you're still worried. You need to relax. What can help? Maybe a quiet walk? A cup
of tea? A little yoga? Psychologists have another idea: Sit down and write! Write
about your stress.
Why does
writing help? There are two reasons. First, your memory works like the memory in
a computer. You need to delete (删除) some documents to make room for other documents. So they need a lot of room in their brains for
memory. They need to delete their "documents" of stress. Writing helps
them by moving the stress out of the brain and putting it on paper. The second reason
is writing helps you to focus. People write about their stress. As a result, they
feel less worried. Then they can focus better on other things.
Psychologists
are studying the connection between stress and writing. They do experiments with
students. They put students into two groups.The
other group sits quietly. Then all the students take a test. What are the results?
The students in the writing group do better than the other group of students.
Some people don't sleep well. Writing at
night will help them sleep better. Some athletes get stressed about winning or losing.
They can't focus on playing well. Writing before a game can help them play better.
People in job interviews get stressed, too. Writing before an interview can help
them relax.
Try this experiment: Go to class ten minutes
early, and write about your stress. You can write in English or your own language.
Then take the test. Maybe the psychologists are right. Maybe writing will help you,
too.
