Many students feel nervous before an exam. They are afraid of failing the exam. They can't eat or sleep well. Sometimes they become ill. Here are some tips for you to do well in an exam.

You probably want to review(复习) everything before an exam, but you need some rest, too. So it's important to make some plans for your study. When you go over your lessons, you should spend more time on your weak subjects.

There is no need to drink ten cups of coffee or energy drinks to study more efficiently (高效地) before an exam. That will make you more nervous and might stop you from getting to sleep. You should eat some healthy food, like fruit and vegetables. Drinking enough water is good for your body.

If you can't fall asleep, get up and go to another room. But don't turn on the TV or play with your phone. Listen to some quiet music or read a book. You'll probably feel sleepy in a few minutes, and then you can go back to your bed.

Think about what you need for the exam. Do you need a ruler? A pen? Paper? Make a list and cross of(划掉) each item once it's put in the bag. Don't forget to silence your phone. You don't want it to ring in the middle of the exam.

No trip to Shanghai is complete without a visit to Shanghai Disneyland Park. If you plan it right, it can be the "Happiest. Place on Earth". Here are some easy tips for you to follow.

Public transport. In Shanghai, there is a good bus and underground service. The best way to get to the theme park is by underground, which is much quicker and cheaper.

What to wear. In summer, the strong sunlight is bad for you, so a hat is necessary. And you're going to do a lot of walking. so you'd better wear comfortable shoes.

Make a plan. It is really impossible to do everything in one day in the park. So you need to plat a route (路线) through the park and choose a few must-dos in the park.

Make good use of FASTPASS. Get to the park early in the morning, and go on the popular rides first to avoid (避免) lines later in the day. However, your best choice for popular rides is the free FASTPASS. It can save you from waiting in long lines.

Go shopping. Don't wait to do your shopping until the end of the day, that's when everyone does it and the lines are long.

Things to-remember. Selfie sticks(自拍杆) are not allowed to use; only well-packaged food and water are allowed; visitors above 16 should not be dressed in cartoon costumes
