考研、期末考臨近，你該做些什麼？

進入期末季，各種考試都紛紛涌來。誠然，提前備考認真複習十分重要，但是，還有一些事情可以提高你的考試成績。應試時，有必要做好身體和精神方面的雙重準備。因此，確保自己專注於考試，以免分心而影響正常發揮。

1. Eat and drink wisely on the morning or day of the sure you don't go into the test hungry. Hunger can interfere with your concentration, and so can the noise of a rumbling stomach. Don't create an unnecessary and unfortunate distraction!Along similar lines, feel free to have some caffeine if you like it, but don't drink too much just before the test! Than can cause another sort of distraction.

1.確保考試當天合理飲食。避免在飢餓狀態下考試。飢餓感和肚子的咕咕聲會分散考生的注意力。因此，避免製造一些不必要的、令人遺憾的干擾！同樣地，若你喜歡咖啡，可隨意飲用，但是，切忌考前攝入過多！以免出現其他問題。

2. Don't forget to wear a 'll need to keep an eye on the minute hand while you're testing.

2.記得戴錶。考試期間，考生需把握答題時間。

3. Arrive early to the classroom. Give yourself time to relax and reflect for several minutes before the test begins.

3.提前入場。開考前，給自己幾分鐘的時間放鬆，適應考場環境。

4. Look over the entire test as soon as you receive time to evaluate the test, in order to determine how much time you should spend on each section. For instance, if you find a multiple choice section followed by two large essay questions, be sure to give yourself enough time for the essays. Assign a time limit to each section. You can always go back if you finish early.

4.發試卷後，立刻瀏覽整份試卷。花時間預估一下試卷，合理分配各部分的完成時間。例如，若多選題後有兩道大論述題，那麼必須分配充足的時間完成論述題。此外，劃定每部分的做題時限。提前完成，便可儘早離場。

5. Pay close attention to them twice, if possible. Don't make assumptions. Observe instruction words carefully and know the difference between words like explain and illustrate. Think carefully about instructions.

5.認真閱讀題幹。可以的話，多讀幾遍。切忌猜想、假設。仔細閱讀題目要求，搞清楚諸如解釋和舉例說明這類詞語之間的細微差別。認真思考題目內容。

6. For multiple choice questions, try to answer the question before looking at your you're right, one of the choices will match your answer.

6.完成多選題時，請試着在瀏覽選項之前得出答案。若回答正確，必有選項與之吻合。

7. Tackle the easy questions over any questions you're not sure about. Sometimes answers come clear to you later, after you take a second look at the question. (Sometimes, the answers even appear in the essay question or elsewhere!)

7.首先完成難度不大的試題。所有不確定的試題，暫時一概跳過。有時候，回過頭來做題，反而會得出答案。（有時候，答案甚至出現在論述題或其他地方！）

8. Every time you skip a question, be sure to mark many times have you left an answer blank by accident? Ouch--what a waste. Be sure to make a star beside questions if you skip them. Don't leave any blanks.

8.每跳過一道試題，一定要及時標記。無意間你遺漏過多少次問題？哎呀----真可惜。跳過試題後，確保在其旁邊標註星星記號。不要遺漏任何試題。

9. For defining terms, concentrate on themes and chapter you're facing a list of terms to define and you're unsure about a few, think back to major themes (usually found in chapter titles). Ask yourself: where might that term have appeared? Take a guess if you're not sure. You may get partial credit if you're close.

9.定義術語時，可以關注文章主題和章節標題。若要定義某列表中的術語，其中一些內容是你不大肯定的，那麼，這個時候需要回歸到文章的主要主題（通常包含於章節標題）。問問自己：這個詞可能會出現在哪兒？如果不確定，就猜一下。如果書寫的內容貼近答案，你也許還能得到一部分分值。

10. Stay positive!If you start to doubt yourself, you may go blank. Keep concentrating on your strengths.

10.保持樂觀！如果一開始就否定自己，那麼應試時你的大腦也許會一片空白。因此，你需要持續專注自己的優勢。
