根据短文内容回答下列问题

     It’s every teenager’s nightmare (恶魔): exam time. During the last three days of the term, we have six exams.

     My easiest exam was maths. All of its questions were from earlier exams.
     The biology exam was hard. At first, I thought I had failed it. It asked lots of things we never studied in class, so we could use our textbooks. But there wasn’t enough time to check every question. I guessed on many of them. But my teacher said I did well.

     On the career planning and computer applications (申请) exam, we had a lot to do: a PowerPoint presentation (显示), a book report and a class evaluation. I felt like I needed more time, but some of my classmates didn’t think so much. They just quickly wrote down some answers and then played games.

     I don’t think I did very well in the English exam. We had to write an essay (读后感) about books we’ve read in class. But I didn’t study enough.

     At our school, we can “Test out” of some classes. That means students can study by themselves and then take a class exam. If they pass, they don’t have to take the class, I tested out of both computer and health classes.

     Studying for those exams was terrible. Those classes go for six months, but I had to teach myself everything in three weeks. Also, I had to do three big projects at the same time. I watched no TV for almost three weeks! I am so glad it’s all over, and now it’s the summer holiday.

     For my classmates, it will be two and a half months of fun without school or homework. But I’m a Chinese, and you know what Chinese parents do with their kids’ free time: still more homework.

　　Read the passage about ways to help you remember information (信息). Match (匹配) the techniques (方法) with pictures 1－6.

Revision techniques

　　It's one thing to study, but another to actually remember the information. Have you tried these techniques?

　　a A mnemonic is a way of remembering a list of items (项目) by finding a word which contains (包括) the first letter of each. For example, to remember the names of the five Great Lakes of America－Huron, Ontario, Erie, Michigan and Superior－take the first letter of each and re-order them to make the word HOMES. Now every time you need to remember the names of the lakes, just think of lots of homes by a lake!

　　b Why not make up tapes of things you have to remember and listen to them on the way home from school, when you're cleaning your teeth, or even when you're sleeping?

　　c Little rhymes and chants help you to remember all kinds of information. For example, if you want to remember the spelling of the word beautiful, you can learn this chant:

　　Mr. B, Mr. E, Mr. A-U-T, Mr. I, Mr. F-U-L!

　　d Make up some question and answer cards, and play a quiz (知识竞赛) game with your friends. Add new questions every time you play it.

　　e Try putting your different revision notes on different coloured paper.

　　f Bombardment is a way of constantly(不断地) reminding (提醒) yourself of facts. Draw huge multicoloured fact charts (示意图) and posters (大画片) for Science, History, Geography, and any other subject where there are a lot of facts to learn. Stick (粘贴) them everywhere－inside your bedroom door, on your wardrobe (衣柜), in the kitchen.
