　　A major source of teen stress is school exams, and test anxiety is not uncommon. When you recognize your teen is under stress, how can parents help your teen stay calm before an exam?

　　Be involved. Parents need to be involved in their teen’s work. 　66   What they look for is your patience—to talk, to cry, or simply to sit with them quietly. Communicate openly with your teen. Encourage your teen to express her worries and fears, but don’t let them focus on those fears.

　　Help them get organized. 　67  Together, you and your teen can work out a timetable in which she can study for what she knows will be on the test.

　　Provide a calm setting. Help your teen set up a quiet place to study and protect her privacy. Give them a nutritious diet. It is important for your teen to eat a healthy, balanced diet during exam times to focus and do her best. 　68  If this happens, encourage your teen to eat light meals or sandwiches.

　　　69   Persuade your teenager to get some sleep and/or do something active when she needs a real break from studying. Help your teen balance her time so that she will feel comfortable taking time out from studying to spend time with friends or rest.

　　Show a positive attitude. 　70   Your panic, anxiety and blame contribute to your teen’s pressure. Make your teen feel accepted and valued for her efforts. Most importantly, reassure your teen that things will be all right, no matter what the results are.

　　A. Encourage your teen to relax.

　　B. The best thing is simply to be there.

　　C. They will only make the situation worse.

　　D. Exam stress can make some teens lose their appetite (食欲).

　　E. A parent’s attitude will affect their teen’s emotions.

If you’re finding it tough to land a job, try expanding your job-hunting plan to include the following tactics：

　　Set your target. While you should always keep your options open to compromise, you should also be sure to target exactly what you want in a job. ____71____

　　Schedule plentiful interviews. Use every possible method to get interviews—answering advertisements，using search firms, contacting companies directly, surfing the Web, and networking. ____72____

　　Follow up.____73____ Then, some weeks later, send another brief letter to explain that you still have not found the perfect position and that you will be available to interview again if the original position you applied for—or any other position—is open. Do this with every position you interview for, and you may just catch a break.

Make it your full-time job. You can’t find a job by looking sporadically(偶发地). ____74____ If you’re unemployed and looking, devote as much time as you would to a full-time job. If you have a job while you’re looking, figure out an organized schedule to maximize your searching time.

Network vertically. In the research stage of your job hunt, talk to people who are on a level above you in your desired industry. They’ll have some insights that people at your own level won’t have, and they will be in a good position to hire you or recommend you to be hired.

____75____ Looking for a job is one of the toughest things you will ever have to do. Maintain your confidence, stay persistent, and think positively, and eventually you will get a job that suits you.

E. A good beginning is half done.

F. Keep your spirits up.

G. A specific job hunt will be more efficient than an aimless one.
