Have you ever had the strange feeling that you were being watched? You turned around and, sure enough, someone was looking right at you! Parapsychologists (灵学家) say that humans have a natural ability to sense when someone is looking at them. To research whether such a “sixth sense” really exists, Robert Baker, a psychologist (心理学家) at the University of Kentucky, did two experiments.
In the first one, Baker sat behind unknowing people in public places and stared at the backs of their heads for 5 to 15 minutes. The subjects（受试者）were eating, drinking, reading, studying, watching TV, or working at a computer. Baker made sure that the people could not tell that he was
sitting behind them during those periods. Later, when he questioned the
subjects, almost all of them said they had no sense that someone was
staring at them.
For the second experiment, Baker told the subjects that they would be
stared at from time to time from behind in a laboratory setting. The people had to write down when they felt they were being stared at and when they weren’t. Baker found that the subjects were no better at telling when they were stared at and when they weren’t.
Baker concludes that people do not have the ability to sense when they're being stared at. If people doubt the of his two experiments, said Baker,
“I suggest they repeat the experiments and see for themselves.”
61. What's the aim of the two experiments for?
A. Prove why humans have a sixth sense.
B. Explain when people can have a sixth sense.
C. Show how people act while being watched in the lab.
D. Study whether humans can sense when they are stared at.

考试高分秘诀是什么？试试这四个方法，特别是中考和高考生
谁都想在考试中取得优异的成绩，但要想取得优异的成绩，除了要掌握好相关的知识定理和方法技巧之外，更要学会一些考试技巧。

因为一份试卷的题型有选择题、填空题和解答题，题目的难易程度不等，再加上时间的限制，更需要考生运用考试技巧去合理安排时间进行考试，这样才能获得一个优异的成绩。

在每次考试结束之后，我们总会发现这样有趣的情形：有的学生能超常发挥，考个好成绩，而有的学生却出现粗心大意的状况，令人惋惜。

有的学生会说这是“运气”的原因，其实更深次的角度来说，这是说明考试准备不足，如知识掌握不扎实或是考试技巧不熟练等，这些正是考前需要调整的重点。

读书学习终究离不开考试，像中考和高考更是重中之重，影响着很多人的一生，下面就推荐一些与考试有关的方法技巧，希望能帮助大家提高考试成绩。

一是学会合理定位考试成绩
你能在一份卷子当中考几分，很大程度上取决于你对知识定理的掌握和熟练程度。

像最后一道选择题和填空题，以及最后两道大题，如果你没有很大把握一次性完成，就要先学会暂时“放一放”，把那些简单题和中等题先解决，再回过头去解决剩下的难题。

因此，在考试来临之前，每位考生必须对自身有一个清晰的了解，面对考试内容，自己处于什么样的知识水平，进而应采取什么样的考试方式，这样才能帮助自己顺利完成考试，获得理想的成绩。

像压轴题的最后一个小题总是比较难，目的是提高考试的区分度，但是一般只有4分左右，很多考生都可以把前面两小题都做对，特别是第一小题。

二是认真审题，理清题意
每次考试结束后，很多考生都会发现很多明明自己会做的题目都解错了，非常可惜。

做错的原因让人既气愤又无奈，如算错、看错、抄错等，其中审题不仔细是大部分的通病。

要想把题目做对，首先就要学会把题目看懂看明白，认真审题这是最基本的学习素养。

像数学考试，就一定要看清楚，如“两圆相切”，就包括外切和内切，缺一不可；ABC是等腰三角形，就要搞清楚哪两条是腰；二次函数与坐标轴存在交点，就要分清楚x轴和y轴；或是在考试过程中遇到熟悉的题目，绝不可掉以轻心，因为熟悉并不代表一模一样。

三是要活用草稿纸
有时候真的很奇怪，有些学生一场考试下来，几乎可以不用草稿纸，但最终成绩也并不一定见得有多好。

不过，我们查看这些学生试卷的时候，上面密密麻麻写了一堆，原来都把试卷当草稿纸，只不过没几个人能看得懂。

考试时间是有限，要想在有限的时间内取得优异的成绩，就必须提高解题速度，这没错，但很多人的解题速度是靠牺牲解题步骤、审清题意等必要环节之上。

就像草稿纸，很多学生认为这是在浪费时间，要么不用，要么在打草稿时太潦草，匆忙抄到试卷上时又看错了，这样的毛病难以在考试时发现。

在解题过程后果，我们应该在试卷上列出详细的步骤，不要跳步，需要用到草稿纸的地方一定要用草稿纸。

只有认真踏实地完成每步运算，假以时日，就能提高解题速度。

大家一定要记住一点：只要你把每个会做的题目做对，分数自然就会高。

四是学会沉着应对考试
无论是谁，面对考试都会有不同程度的紧张情绪，这很正常，没什么好大惊小怪，偏偏有的学生会把这些情绪放大，出现焦躁不安，甚至是失眠的负面情况，非常可惜。

就像在考试过程中，遇到难题这也很正常，此时的你更应不慌不躁，冷静应对在考试，有些题目难免一时会想不出解题思路，千万记住不要钻牛角尖，可以暂时先放一放，不妨先换一个题目做做，等一会儿往往就会豁然开朗了。

考试，特别像中考和高考这样大型的重要考试，一定要相信一点，那就是所有试题包含的知识定理、能力要求都在考纲范围内，不要有过多的思想负担。

考试遇到难题，容易让人心烦意乱，我们不要急于一时，别总想一口气吃掉整个题目，可以先做一个小题，后面的思路就慢慢理顺了。
