When you think about a coming Maths test, do you get nervous? If yes, you are far from alone. Maths anxiety becomes a common feeling among students around the world. A study shows students in countries with higher levels of maths anxiety may get lower Maths grades.
A study from University of Cambridge shows many people feel worried and nervous when facing a Maths problem in daily life. Another report says that these people might try not to face something about numbers. That is to say, they would not work on jobs about maths, such as science and technology.
However, people with maths anxiety aren’t sure to be bad at Maths. If a child has maths anxiety, don’t conclude (断定) that he is not good at Maths. He may have a really bad experience with Maths and there are ways to make it better.
Also, there are ways to relieve maths anxiety. If you’re feeling anxious before a Maths test, it may be helpful to spend a few minutes understanding those feelings before the test begins. “You may have a fast heartbeat, but that doesn’t mean you will fail,” Sian Beilock, a psychologist in the USA said. Ian Lyons, at Georgetown University in the USA, thinks just like some speakers feel nervous before giving a speech, this nervous feeling could motivate (激励) us to do better.

解析
32. 细节理解题。根据第一段“Maths anxiety becomes a common feeling among students around the world.”可知数学焦虑在世界各地学生中很常见。A选项“must”表述绝对;C选项文中未提及会必然导致考试失败;D选项与第三段“people with maths anxiety aren’t sure to be bad at Maths”不符。所以选B。
33. 细节理解题。根据第三段“He may have a really bad experience with Maths”可知有数学焦虑的人可能在数学方面有过糟糕经历。A选项与“might try not to face something about numbers”不符;B选项与“would not work on jobs about maths, such as science and technology”不符;D选项“every”表述绝对。所以选C。
34. 词义猜测题。根据后文“spend a few minutes understanding those feelings before the test begins”以及后面提到紧张感可能激励我们做得更好,可知是有缓解数学焦虑的方法,“relieve”意思是减轻,使不严重。所以选A。
35. 推理判断题。根据最后一段“this nervous feeling could motivate (激励) us to do better”可知数学焦虑这种紧张感可能激励我们做得更好,说明数学焦虑不总是对我们有害。B选项不是重点;C选项与原文不符;D选项“all”表述绝对。所以选A。

当你想到即将到来的数学考试时,你会感到紧张吗?如果会,那么有这种感受的远不止你一个人。数学焦虑症在世界各地的学生中成为一种普遍的感受。一项研究表明,在数学焦虑程度较高的国家,学生的数学成绩可能更低。
剑桥大学的一项研究表明,许多人在日常生活中面对数学问题时会感到担忧和紧张。另一份报告称,这些人可能会尽量避免接触与数字有关的事物。也就是说,他们不会从事与数学相关的工作,比如科学和技术领域的工作。
然而,患有数学焦虑症的人不一定数学就不好。如果一个孩子有数学焦虑症,不要断定他不擅长数学。他可能在数学方面有过非常糟糕的经历,而且有办法改善这种情况。
此外,还有一些方法可以缓解数学焦虑。如果你在数学考试前感到焦虑,在考试开始前花几分钟来理解这些感受可能会有所帮助。“你的心跳可能会加快,但这并不意味着你会失败,”美国心理学家西恩·贝洛克说。美国乔治敦大学的伊恩·莱昂斯认为,就像一些演讲者在演讲前会感到紧张一样,这种紧张的感觉可能会激励我们做得更好。
