12、od way to practice. You don 'thave to feel embarrassed, because nobody can hear you. You can talk to yourself about anything you like - what you had for breakfast, where you ' regoing for the weekend - anything. And the more you do it, the more you will get used to hearing your own voice and

13、 your pronunciation, so you won't feel so frightened in the classroom. Andy should try it.P: Hm, I suppose so. Any thi ng else? What about his grammar?S: He has only just started learning English, so he is going to make lots of mistakes, butthat ' not a problem. That ' s how he ' ll

This is the second timethey ' vdone this test. The f

19、irst time was in 1932, whe n every 11-year-old in Scotla nd was put through an in tellige nce testlt 'She only time this kind of mass testing has ever been done in the UK. The results were rediscovered rece ntly in an Edin burgh baseme nt. If you want to know how our in tellige nce changes as we

20、 get older, these results are a potential goldmine.I:We brought hun dreds of people back and we got them to sit the exact same test that they hadsat when they were aged 11. Now, these people are now 79 or 80 years old. We gave the same in struct ions. We gave the same test. And we gave the same time

Almost every one had a better score at 80 tha n they did at 11.

22、But some had gone from being just averagely in tellige nt to a much higher level.I:Now, that ' what really drives our research. We' re interested in: Why have those peoplewho' ve gone (people gone) from IQ 100, at age 11, up to 110 or 120? What have they done right? What can be the recip

29、bout this advice, for me. As I said, I think it depends. I always try to eat a good meal before an exam'm so nervous that I never get sleepy.A: Hm. OK. What other ideas do you have?B: Well, there ' one thing I always do before an exam.A: What ' Sat?B: I go to bed early the ni ght before.

I found it very easy to lear n, but was frustrated

42、 with the slow pace and repetitive n ature of all my Spanish classes. So I worked extra hard in my spare time and asked my teacher if I could skip a level by the end of the semester.This was unsuccessful, however, because the school was not willing to test me or otherwise prove that I could be succe

43、ssful in the top level after skipping a level. This made things even more frustrating, as then I was stuck in a class where I already knew the material!Then I went on to college where I then used the language extensively both in and out of the classroom. I studied Spanish literature, culture, and li
