What is the most stressful (有压力的) thing in school? It is probably exams. Exams can put us under a lot of stress. But some students do better under stress, while others do not. So, why do some students behave better under stress?
It all comes down to dopamine (多巴胺). Dopamine is a chemical in our body that sends signals in the brain. It has many important roles: influencing memory, attention and how we learn.
Our brains work best when there is a balance (平衡) of dopamine—not too much or too little. Our brains control dopamine in two ways. It either takes out dopamine quickly, or bit by bit. Exam success can be connected to how fast dopamine goes back to a balance, according to new research from the University of Missouri, reported Yahoo.
What happens when we take an exam? If you become stressed, your brain will start to overload on dopamine. It is like a cup overflowing with water. The quicker you are able to go back to a balance of dopamine, the quicker you can focus, helping you do better on a test.
Scientists found that, during a test, people who slowly got back to a balance of dopamine scored 8 percent lower. That's the difference between a good mark and a bad mark.
But don't fear, there is good news for every student. The study also found that the more practice you get, the less stressed you will be. So, it turns out that .
①remembering something
②having a good rest
③paying attention to the teachers
④choosing the way we learn
Have you ever rubbed your hands together when they get cold? Why do we do that? We do that for friction. Friction happens when two things that aren't very smooth rub together to make heat energy. The faster you rub two things together, the more friction (and heat) you can make. Let's discover friction!
WHAT YOU'LL NEED: ● Soap ● Water ● Your hands! WHAT TO DO: 1. Make sure your hands are dry. 2. Rub your hands together until you feel the heat of your hands. 3. Now, use soap and water to get your hands very slippery (滑的). 4. Try to make friction happen while your hands are slippery. 5. Please write down what has happened. LET'S TALK! Friction is an energy that happens when two things rub together. When friction happens, it makes heat! When your hands are slippery, they won't make very much friction and your hands won't get so hot. DID YOU KNOW? 1. Friction happens when you stop your fast running bike. 2. Ancient people made fires by rubbing two pieces of wood together. Friction happened though they didn't know it. ? Friction is everywhere. Have you ever noticed situations where friction is happening? If not, ask your parents to take you out in a car. If it is not too hot, touch the tires (轮胎) of the car before and after a short drive to see how much warmer they get from friction. |
Our life will be different from nowadays with robots appearing in our homes. So what will the future be like? Here are some students' ideas.
I expect to live in a more beautiful and cleaner city. The street will be cleaned by the robots once a day. —Ben |
There will be more kinds of food to choose from and the food will be more delicious. The robots can make food for us。 —Karen |
We do not have to spend much time on heavy work because robots will take up most of our work, such as washing the clothes. So we will have more vacations. We can take a vacation on the moon. We will not live on the earth but on the moon or other planets. —Mark |
I expect that most families will have their own planes made by their robots, and travel will become more convenient. The plane is faster than any other transportation(交通工具). —Sue |
I hope robots can make clothes for us. The clothes could change their sizes and colors by themselves. —Sam |
