    　　As a preteen in New York, Whitney Johnson volunteered at soup kitchens and delivered clothes to the homeless．While at college, she started an English-language tutoring program for immigrant children．No one was surprised, then, when she chose to volunteer in an orphanage in Khayelitsha, one of South Africa's poorest areas, during her junior year abroad．

    　　At the orphanage, Johnson discovered most of the children infected with HIV at birth, many abandoned by parents too sick to care for them, or neglected by surviving relatives．Few were receiving the care needed to stay healthy．Many died．When she left, all she wanted to do was go back and change what she had seen．

    　　After graduation, Johnson began a fund-raising effort that eventually collected enough money to found UBA, a nonprofit organization intended to provide services for HIV-positive(阳性的)kids aged 4 to 18 in Khayelitsha．Now UBA is housed in a church big enough for offices and the children．The staff includes counselors(咨询师), a social worker, a nurse, a cook, and a handful of volunteers, ensuring that each child has access to proper care, a free healthy meal, and emotional support．Once a week, she makes sure the children receive age-appropriate lessons about AIDS．The social worker sees to it that the kids are enrolled(注册)in school and have safe living conditions－especially those without parents．

    　　Johnson plans to soon relocate UBA to an even larger location with more medical staff and a field“so the kids can run around and just feel like kids．" She's also working with the South African Department of Health so that the new center can distribute drugs and give blood tests．

    　　"Many people think that HIV means death, but it doesn't," Johnson says．"There's so much that can be done．" In the five years since the center opened, not one of the 200 kids in the program has died．“It's so emotional to see the strong, independent people they become．" One teenage girl who had received help at UBA even announced that she wanted to become a nurse．

    Anne Whitney, a sophomore(二年级学生) at Colorado State University, first had a problem taking tests when she began college. "I was always well prepared for my tests. Sometimes I studied for weeks before a test. Yet I would go in to take the test, only to find I could not answer the questions correctly. I would blank out because of nervousness and fear. I couldn't think of the answer. My low grades on the tests did not show what I knew to the teacher ."  Another student in microbiology and similar experiences. He said ,"My first chemistry test was very difficult. Then, on the second test, I sat down to take it, and I was so nervous that I was shaking. My hands were moving up and down so quickly that it was hard to hold my pencil. I knew the material and I knew the answers. Yet I couldn't even write them down!"

     These two young students were experiencing something called test anxiety. Because a student worries and it uneasy about a test, his or her mind does not work as well as it usually does. The student can't write or think clearly because of the extreme tension and nervousness. Although poor grades are often a result of poor study habits, sometimes test anxiety causes the low grades. Recently, test anxiety had been recognized as a real problem, not just an excuse or a false explanation of lazy students.

      Special university counseling courses try to help students. In these courses, counselors try to help students by teaching them how to manage test anxiety .At some universities, students take tests to measure their anxiety. If the tests show their anxiety is high, the students can take short courses to help them deal with their tension. These courses teach students how to relax their bodies .Students are trained to become calm in very tense situations. By controlling their nervousness, they can let their minds work at ease .Learned information then comes out without difficulty on a test.

      An expert at the University of California explains. "With almost all students, relaxation and less stress are felt after taking out program .Most of then experience better control during their tests. Almost all have some improvement. With some, the improvement is very great."

    1.To "blank out" is probably______.

    A. to be like a blanket                      B. to be sure of an answer

    3.Test anxiety has been recognized as _______.

    A. an excuse for laziness                  B. the result of poor habits

    C. a real problem                        D. something that can't be changed

    4.To deal with this problem, students say they want to ______.

    A .take a short course on anxiety           

    B read about anxiety

    C. be able to manage or understand their anxiety

      D take test to prove they are not anxiety

    5.A University of California counselor said_______.

    A. all students could overcome the anxiety after taking a special test anxiety program

    B. almost all students felt less stress after taking a University of California counseling course

    C. students found it difficult to improve even though they had taken a special test anxiety course

    D. students found it easy to relax as soon as they entered a University of California counseling course
