Others may feel very nervous during the exam itself. But there might be a way to make the subject less stressful.For people who are worried about math, posture (姿势) makes a big difference. Erik Peper from San Francisco State University told the Daily Mail. Thats right-sitting up straight can help you do better on math exams.Scientists tested 125 college students. They asked them to do a simple math test while sitting in a slumped-over (趴倒的) position, or sitting up straight. After the test, 56 percent of students said the exam was easier to do if they were sitting up straight.Slumping over is a defensive posture. It can trigger (激发) negative (消极的) memories in the body and brain. This can stop you from thinking clearly, Peper said.Students who were not nervous about taking the math exam did not necessarily benefit from better posture. But they did find that doing math in a slumped-over position was more difficult, Science Daily reported.Good posture isnt just helpful for taking math exams. Athletes, musicians and public speakers can all benefit from better postures. When you feel stressed out, you can also try to sit up straight or stand tall. It can help you feel more positive and do better.（1）What posture can make people feel less stressed during math exams? A . Lying on your back.B . Putting your head on your desk.C .

Local people not only sort their rubbish, but also put QR codes (二维码) on it. When the rubbish is collected and the codes are scanned (扫描), I will get reward points to exchange for small gifts and even some money, one of the local people told reporters. Its really creative and encouraging.This smart system has been carried out in 350 communities in Beijing. The capital of China has joined a list of cities in the country that take action to support rubbish sorting. For example, Shenzhen and Shanghai have made laws to punish people and organizations for not sorting rubbish correctly. China produces quite a lot of rubbish every year. Much of the rubbish is buried (填埋) in soil or burned without being sorted. Landfills (填埋场) take up a lot of land and have a risk of polluting the soil and water nearby. And burning rubbish can produce harmful gases. Through rubbish sorting, we can reduce the use of landfills and air pollution.Whats more, rubbish sorting saves resources, which could bring economic benefits (经济利益). For example, a ton of waste paper can be reused to make about 850kg of paper, saving 17 trees and 50 percent of water. Because of their benefits, some countries have developed successfully sorting systems. In Australia, every family is provided with three rubbish binsthe red lid (盖子) bin for general waste like food and plastic bags, the yellow lid bin for recyclable (可回收利用的) waste like steel and glass, and the green lid bin for green waste, such as grass and leaves. On the street, the bins are printed with pictures of the things that are allowed inside. It makes recycling quite easy. （1）What will local people probably get if they put daily rubbish into the new system in Fangchengyuan Community? A . A computer.B . A car.C . A lot of money.D . Some small gifts.（2）Which of the following is NOT the consequence (后果) of burying rubbish? A . Polluting soil.B . Polluting water.C . Taking up a lot of land.D . Saving resources.（3）Which paragraph discusses the economic benefits of rubbish sorting? A . Paragraph 3.B . Paragraph 4.C . Paragraph 5.D . Paragraph 6.（4）In Australia, which bin should you put food left after dinner in? A . The red lid bin.B . The yellow lid bin.C . The green lid bin.D . The black lid bin.20. （8分）阅读理解 I often hear some students say English is difficult, and it gives them a headache. But English is very easy for me. Im good at it.
