How to Calm Your Teen's Nerves before an Exam
Stress is a feeling of physical, mental of emotional strain of tension which disturbs or interferes with normal physiological balance. Stress can be overwhelming for anyone, but it can be especially difficult for a teen that has not yet developed effective coping skills. A major source of teen stress is school exams, and test anxiety is not uncommon. So, how can parents help their teen stay calm before an exam?
Recognize when your teen is under stress.
Teens can feel an immense pressure to do well on exams. For some teens, just the idea of taking the test can bring them into a panic(恐慌). ( 11 ) Emotional symptoms include: excessive of uncontrollable drying, aggression or mood swings, and panic attacks.
What should parents do?
--Be involved
Parents need to be involved in their teen's work. What they look for is your presence--to talk, to dry, or simply to sit with them quietly. Communicate openly with your teen. ( 12 )
--Help them get organized
Help your teen think about what she has to study and plan accordingly. ( 13 )
--Give them a nutritious diet
It's important for your teen to eat a healthy, balanced diet during exam times to focus and do her best. ( 14 ) if this happens, encourage your teen to eat light meals or sandwiches. A healthy diet, rather than junk food, is best for reducing stress.
--Show a positive attitude
( 15 ) If you panic, blame, or apply to much pressure, your teen will have an undue increase in their stress levels. Make your teen feel accepted and valued for her efforts. Most important, reassure your teens that things will be all right,
no matter what the results are.
A. Together, you and your teen can work out a time-table in which she can study for what she knows will be on the test.

G. Exam stress can make some teens lose their appetite.

She might have felt my ( 22 ) for she occasionally looked in my direction.
By now I was telling myself that I could at least tell her how good she sounded. I walked ( 23 )and put some money in her box and she expressed her thanks with a smile on her face.
I asked her( 24 ), “Why are you playing the piano in the middle of this crowded place?”
She explained to me that she sees so many( 25 ) people in the world that she is trying to relieve the pain by ( 26 )motivational(激励的)music.
Instead of continuing my way home, I said to her, “I have been going through a ( 27 ) time lately, but you’ve made me ( 28 ) again.”
