It is probably exams. Exams can put us under a lot of stress. But some students do better under stress, while others do not. So, why do some students behave better under stress?It all comes down to dopamine (多巴胺). Dopamine is a chemical in our body that sends signals in the brain. It has many important roles: influencing memory, attention and how we learn.Our brains work best when there is a balance (平衡) of dopaminenot too much or too little. Our brains control dopamine in two ways. It either takes out dopamine quickly, or bit by bit. Exam success can be connected to how fast dopamine goes back to a balance, according to new research from the University of Missouri, reported Yahoo.What happens when we take an exam? If you become stressed, your brain will start to overload on dopamine. It is like a cup overflowing with water. The quicker you are able to go back to a balance of dopamine, the quicker you can focus, helping you do better on a test.Scientists found that, during a test, people who slowly got back to a balance of dopamine scored 8 percent lower. Thats the difference between a good mark and a bad mark.But dont fear, there is good news for every student. The study also found that the more practice you get, the less stressed you will be.

Your parents will save a lot of money. said a family friend when I was five years old. Double eyelids, which almost all the white people have, are rare among Northeast Asians. Only 25% of South Koreans are born with double eyelids.I never quite understood how having double eyelids saved my parents money until this summer. When I came back to Seoul, everywhere I noticed cosmetic surgery clinics(整形诊所) and advertisements with South Korean womentall, thin, with milky skin, long legs, nice big eyes and perfect noses. I found that South Korean beauty meant looking as white as possible.Cosmetic surgery has a kind of magical attraction(吸引) to women the promise of beauty. Women are often sure that suffering is necessary and worthy in order to be beautiful. This suffering is not for nothing. It is believed that beauty leads to attracting a better-looking partner, which then leads to a better-looking child and a better life.Appearance is starting to be more important in work places. People with good appearance can have more chances. For example, my 29-year-old brother, who is slim and very tall, gets more job chances than his best friend, who is short and heavy, though both of them came from the same college, had the same good marks in their studies. In fact, many South Koreans believe that physical beauty equals happiness. （1）How many South Koreans are born with double eyelids?（2）When did the writer understand having eyelids saved his parents money?（3）Does cosmetic surgery have much attraction to women according to the writer?（4）What kind of people can get more job chances?（5）What do you think of cosmetic surgery?4. （6分）阅读理解 Dear Donna, Help!
