①What should you take when you take an exam? Pen, an eraser, a ruler… don't forget a bottle of water!
②Scientist at the University of East London and the University of Westminster did a study on 400 students. Only 100 of them took something to drink. Scientist then compared(比较) their exam results with their usual scores. They found those who had brought drinks with them all got better scores by between 2 and 10 percent.
③" We don't know why drinking water can be helpful. But scientists said having enough water in our bodies may also cut down(减轻) their nervous feeling. This kind of feeling would be bad for exam performances," said Chris Pawson, PHD of the University of East London.
④" Whatever the explanation(解释) is, it is clear that students should try hard to stay hydrated(含水的) during exams," he added.
⑤So next time, when you are going to have a big exam, try bringing a bottle of water with you. Who knows— it may help you get higher scores.
②③④⑤
