Consequently, stress is a common problem that many college students must face. How to reduce stress1. Eliminate the source of stress. Identify possible sources of stress, and work toward eliminating them. If a math course is creating stress, for instance, take action: go to the learning lab or math lab for assistance or inquire about instructions.2. Establish a daily routine. To eliminate daily hassles(混乱) and make daily tasks as simple as possible, establish a daily routine. A routine eliminates the need to make numerous small decisions, thus giving you a sense of “smooth sailing”.3. Review your achievements. When you feel pressures, stop and review what you have already achieved that day and that week. This review will give you confidence that you can handle the work load. A positive attitude goes a long way in overcoming stress.4. Get physical exercise. Exercise often releases tension, promotes a general feeling of wellness, and improves self-concept. Many students report that as little as 30 minutes of exercises produces immediate relaxations.5. Get involved with campus activities. Some students become so involved with their course that they do little else but study or worry about studying. In fact, they feel guilty or stressed when they are not studying. Be sure to allow some time in each day to relax and have fun. Campus activities provide a valuable means of releasing tension and taking your mind off your work.36.

It looks terrible, smells awful and is responsible for thousands of deaths every year. Most of the smog comes from cars and, as more cars run on the streets every day, the problems can only get worse. Not long ago, however, car designers and scientists thought they had a solution: electric cars that would run on batteries, and produce no exhaust. But electric cars were ahead of their timethey were expensive and not powerful enough. Also, they could only run a short distance before running out of power, and recharging took a long time. As a result, electric cars never really became popular.But now car designers have come up with a compromise: hybrid(混合型) cars put gasoline-and electric-powered engines in one car, offering drivers both the power and convenience of gasoline and the fuel savings and reduced pollution of electricity.Gasoline engines operate most efficiently at speeds over 30kph, and are least efficient when the car is idle or is gaining speed. Hybrid cars shut down the gasoline engine while standing still, and speed up by using the electric motor. The batteries recharge by using energy created while the car is braking(刹车)， and hybrid cars use less than half the gasoline of a normal car.But hybrid cars arent only about saving fuel and preventing pollution. In fact, new hybrid designs can beat traditional gasoline-powered cars in speed as well, because the electric motor gives the engine extra power. Hondas new car Dualnote runs at high speed with a super-efficient electric motor. The result is a sports car with 400 horsepower uses less gasoline than a motor scooter(小轮摩托车).41.

Hybrid cars have the advantage of _.A) speeding up at a very short timeB) running as fast as sports carsC) offering the driver easy operation and comfortD) saving much more energy than sports cars45. The Honda Dualnote is _A) a traditional gas-powered car B) an electric-powered engine C) a new high-speed sports car D) a super-efficient electric motorTask 3Directions: The following is a memorandum.
