Study Techniques

You should always study in the same place. You shouldn’t sit in a position that you use for another purpose. __【2】_ Don’t watch TV while you are studying. Experts warn that your concentration may be reduced by 50 percent if you attempt to study in this way. Always try to have a white wall in front of you, so there is nothing to distract you. Before sitting down to study, gather together all the equipment you need. Apart from your textbooks, pens, pencils and knives, make sure you have a dictionary.

Test-taking Skills

__【4】__ Doing some form of exercise every day will also improve your concentration. Eat healthy food too.

When you arrive in the examination room, find your seat and sit down. Breathe slowly and deeply. Check the time on the clock during the test, but not too often. __【5】__

【解析】

試題分析：注意力不集中既影響學(xué)習(xí)能力又影響考試成績，作者就怎樣集中注意力給了我們一些建議。

【1】C 考查對上下文的理解和推理判斷能力。上文講學(xué)習(xí)考試中遇到的具體問題，尤其是注意力不集中影響學(xué)習(xí)能力和考試成績。這是提出問題，C項(xiàng)“如果這樣，下面建議會(huì)幫助你。”引出下文的解決方法，承上啟下，故選C。

【2】E 考查對上下文的理解和推理判斷能力。上句講要選擇合適的學(xué)習(xí)地點(diǎn)，目的是學(xué)習(xí)不是其他。E項(xiàng)“如果你坐在沙發(fā)上學(xué)習(xí)，大腦就會(huì)認(rèn)為該休息了。”是對上句的具體解釋，故選E。

【3】D 考查對上下文的理解和推理判斷能力。下文講完成一件事再開始另一件，不要同時(shí)做幾件事。D項(xiàng)“現(xiàn)實(shí)一些，不要在同一學(xué)習(xí)階段完成太多。”與下文一致，故選D。

【4】G 考查對上下文的理解和推理判斷能力。下句講鍛煉可以提高注意力，G項(xiàng)也講鍛煉能緩解壓力，與本段意思一致，故選G。

【5】A 考查對上下文的理解和推理判斷能力。本段講考試時(shí)集中注意力的具體做法，A項(xiàng)“不要注意別人只注意自己的試卷就可以了。”符合本段內(nèi)容，故選A。
