The feeling is just as familiar - a slightly faster heart rate, and shortness of breath. Yes, it is panic time.Its too late to kick yourself with “I should have started on this sooner.” or “It was a mistake to accept this tight deadline.” The only thing left to deal with the situation is to panic more efficiently. Focus.Panic happens when you are on an overload - too many things to do, too much pressure, too little time. But if you focus on the tasks that you need to take care of, and line them up in a logical list, you can have better control of a highly stressful and wild situation. Get rid of distractions.Time wasters and unnecessary activities are the last things you need during this time. Let everyone know you are on panic mode and should not be disturbed unless it is an emergency. Watch your time.Dont be too engaged in one detail so that you reduce your timing for the other important details. Mind the time and deal with each task so that you can finish all of the required activities sufficiently.Try to solve a panic situation as quickly as you can so that you can rest and get back your energy and strength for the next one.8. What can a person in a panic mode do to watch his time?A. He should wear a watch. B. He should focus on one detail.C. He should do his work quickly. D. He should mind the time properly.9.

Which of the following can be the title of the passage?A. A Familiar Situation B. Panic More EfficientlyC. Keep Your Spirit High D. Throw Away Distractions DAbout ten men in every hundred suffer from color blindness in some way. Women are luckier; only about one in two hundred is affected in this matter. Perhaps, after all, it is safer to be driven by a woman! There are different forms of color blindness. In some cases a man may not be able to see deep red. He may think that red, orange and yellow are all shadows of green. Sometimes a person cannot tell the difference between blue and green. In rare cases an unlucky man may see everything in shades of green a strange world indeed.Color blindness in human beings is a strange thing to explain. In a single eye there are millions of very small things called “cones”. These help us to see in a bright light and to tell difference between colors. There are also millions of “rods”, but these are used for seeing when it is near dark. They show us shape but no color.Some insects have favorite colors. Mosquitoes prefer blue to yellow. A red light will not attract insects, but a blue lamp will. In a similar way human beings also have favorite colors. Yet we are lucky. With the aid of the cones in our eyes we can see many beautiful colors by day, and with the aid of the rods we can see shapes at night. One day we may even learn more about the invisible colors around us.12. The passage is mainly about _.A. color and its surprising effectsB. women being luckier than menC. danger caused by color blindnessD. color blindness13. According to the passage, with the help of the “cones”, we can _.A. tell different shapesB. see in a weak lightC. kill mosquitoesD. tell orange from yellow14. Why do some people say it is safer to be driven by women?A. Women are more careful.B. There are fewer color-blind womenC. Women are fonder of driving than men.D. Women are weaker but quicker in thinking.15. Which of the statements about the color-blind is true?A. All of them dont have the same problem in recognizing color.B. None of them can see deep red.C. None of them can tell the difference between blue and green.D. All of them see everything in shades of green. 第二节（共小题；每小题分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。Thekeytodealingwithtest-dayjitters（焦躁）is through preparation! _16_ It is important to prepare your mind and body before the test for the experience of working under pressure.
