嗯，个人觉得这个anxiety问题对我来说并不大。射击训练出来的心理素质还是很好的。
仔细回忆了一下，自己模考和考场上anxiety的主要原因是不能brainstorming到好的思路。但是看了20问之后，这个貌似就不是问题了。而且，对于具体的考试而言，场下的提纲更是硬功夫。台下多花一分力气，就能有效减少anxiety。
也许有人会提到提纲难免有忘记，或者因为没有写过，一时构思不出例子而迟疑。我个人还是很有时限压力下的决断能力的。话说回来，就算像我之前那么浮躁的时候，也把高频过了一遍，并且自己写了提纲。考场上回忆起来一部分，再拼凑一部分，还是可以写的。至于拼凑给人心理阴影么，呵呵，我不会。就像我打了8环，也会觉得比总比7环强。平时刻苦练习，但场上别和自己较劲。
最后提到的mental image很不错。我常常幻想Fine Hall前的一片樱花。

Coping with Writing Anxiety
Many situations or activities, such as writing, taking tests, competing in sports, or speaking before a large audience, may make us anxious or apprehensive. It's important to remember that a moderate level of anxiety is helpful and productive. That flow of adrenaline is a natural response that helps get us ready for action. Without it, we might not perform as well.
If we let our anxiety overwhelm us, it can cause problems. If we control that anxiety, however, we can make it work for us. One way to do that is to use some of the coping strategies listed below.1
Coping Strategies:
Focus your energy by rehearsing the task in your head.
Consciously stop the non-productive comments（没用的思路） running through your head by replacing them with productive ones. 【我背单词的时候老有这种感觉。。。不知不觉就想起一堆乱七八糟的事情】
If you have some "rituals（仪式）" for writing success, use them. 【。。。这个有点搞 。。？rituals？上个厕所先吧~】
Examples:
-Follow a protocol you may have for organizing your time. Use a favorite pen if you have one. （回忆模板，摸摸自己的幸运物）【诶诶~这个我有这毛病 写东西时必须用一个手感好的笔】
-Spend a few minutes doing some relaxation exercises. （做运动）【哎呦我天 至于么。。这么兴师动众的 伸个懒腰做个深呼吸足够了】
-Take a break: physically walk away from the situation for a few minutes if you can. （溜达溜达）

Relaxation Strategies
Stretch伸展! If you can't stand up, stretch as many muscle groups as possible while staying seated. （不要吓到邻座...）
Try tensing and releasing various muscle groups. Starting from your toes, tense up for perhaps five to ten seconds and then let go. Relax and then go on to another muscle group.
Breathe deeply. Close your eyes; then, fill your chest cavity slowly by taking four of five short deep breaths. Hold each breath until it hurts, and then let it out slowly.
Use a calming word or mental image to focus on while relaxing. If you choose a word, be careful not to use an imperative. Don't command yourself to "Calm down!" or "Relax!" 【以中国学生的丰富应试经历来说 没必要这么兴师动众的做这么多放松吧 我觉得越这样越心慌 做个深呼吸是我一般的选择】

（2）Coping with Writing Anxiety考场心态调整策略：
重复题目、停止无谓思考、做习惯的动作
拉拉背仰仰头、脚趾用力、深呼吸、提醒自己“我准备的很充分！杀！！”
回忆破题模式、在草稿纸上写上提纲

其实，如果平时模考惯了，一切都顺其自然吧。。。尽早开始练习～嘿嘿。。

Coping with Writing Anxiety
Many situations or activities, such as writing, taking tests, competing in sports, or speaking before a large audience, may make us anxious or apprehensive. It's important to remember that a moderate level of anxiety is helpful and productive. That flow of adrenaline is a natural response that helps get us ready for action. Without it, we might not perform as well.（昨天跳舞的时候我也很兴奋，很紧张啊，果然就超水平发挥了，原来这个是共通的啊~~）

If we let our anxiety overwhelm us, it can cause problems. If we control that anxiety, however, we can make it work for us. One way to do that is to use some of the coping strategies listed below.
Coping Strategies:

•        Focus your energy by rehearsing the task in your head.
•        Consciously stop the non-productive comments（没用的思路） running through your head by replacing them with productive ones.
•        If you have some "rituals（仪式）" for writing success, use them.
Examples:

•        -Follow a protocol you may have for organizing your time. Use a favorite pen if you have one. （回忆模板，摸摸自己的幸运物）
•        -Spend a few minutes doing some relaxation exercises. （做运动）
•        -Take a break: physically walk away from the situation for a few minutes if you can. （溜达溜达）
我在手心写“人”字，消除紧张感~~

Relaxation Strategies

•        Stretch伸展! If you can't stand up, stretch as many muscle groups as possible while staying seated. （不要吓到邻座...）
•        Try tensing and releasing various muscle groups. Starting from your toes, tense up for perhaps five to ten seconds and then let go. Relax and then go on to another muscle group.
•        Breathe deeply. Close your eyes; then, fill your chest cavity slowly by taking four of five short deep breaths. Hold each breath until it hurts, and then let it out slowly.
•        Use a calming word or mental image to focus on while relaxing. If you choose a word, be careful not to use an imperative. Don't command yourself to "Calm down!" or "Relax!"
•        最后一条太对了，冷静下来啊，放松啊，真的不适合我，不如说笑话好……
Writing Anxiety对我来说不算太严重吧，所以这篇，用处不大……

*a moderate level of anxiety is helpful and production

在考场上比较适用的几条

*Focus your energy by rehearsing the task in your head.（针对AW，应该或许可以通过读direction来集中精力。）
*Consciously stop the non-productive comments（没用的思路）running through your head by replacing them with productive ones.
*Stretch & Breathe deeply
*Use a calming word or mental image to focus on while relaxing. If you choose a word, be careful not to use an imperative. Don't command yourself to "Calm down!" or "Relax!"

这个也有讲究吗
以前考试总是紧张过度，以后试验一下
其实个人觉得还是平时意志品质的锻炼比较重要

NUNULONG笔记(二)：

利用中午休息时间看了一下，以前在很多文章中看到过类似的建议，但始终没有采用，在用自己的方式对付，考前良好的准备和淡然的心态个人认为是关键，其次是破釜沉舟的毅力，但也是纸上谈兵，现在终于到了检验自己的时候了！

Coping Strategies:

Focus your energy by rehearsing the task in your head.
Consciously stop the non-productive comments（没用的思路） running through your head by replacing them with productive ones.
If you have some "rituals（仪式）" for writing success, use them.

希望可以很好的运用上面的方法，最好变为自己的方式。

Many situations or activities, such as writing, taking tests, competing in sports, or speaking before a large audience, may make us anxious or apprehensive. It's important to remember that a moderate level of anxiety is helpful and productive. That flow of adrenaline is a natural response that helps get us ready for action. Without it, we might not perform as well.[yes, my major is psychology, and there are theories about stress, it all said that proper stress is necessary. The relationship between the performance and the stress is like a U-curve]

If we let our anxiety overwhelm us, it can cause problems. If we control that anxiety, however, we can make it work for us. One way to do that is to use some of the coping strategies listed below.[it's more often we experience a writing anxiety in an exam setting]

Coping Strategies:

·
Focus your energy by rehearsing the task in your head. [focus on the topic insteading of worrying about the outcomes if you fail it]

·
Consciously stop the non-productive comments（没用的思路） running through your head by replacing them with productive ones.[actually, it's hard to distinguish which are non-productive comments]

·
If you have some "rituals（仪式）" for writing success, use them. [take a outline or list what you have in mind related to the topic]

Examples:

·
-Follow a protocol you may have for organizing your time. Use a favorite pen if you have one.
（回忆模板，摸摸自己的幸运物）[think about which style or type of essay you are good at, when you have no thought, you can start from the most familiar]

·
-Spend a few minutes doing some relaxation exercises. （做运动）

·
-Take a break: physically walk away from the situation for a few minutes if you can. （溜达溜达）

Relaxation Strategies

·
Stretch伸展! If you can't stand up, stretch as many muscle groups as possible while staying seated. （不要吓到邻座...）

·
Try tensing and releasing various muscle groups. Starting from your toes, tense up for perhaps five to ten seconds and then let go. Relax and then go on to another muscle group.

·
Breathe deeply. Close your eyes; then, fill your chest cavity slowly by taking four of five short deep breaths. Hold each breath until it hurts, and then let it out slowly.

Use a calming word or mental image to focus on while relaxing. If you choose a word, be careful not to use an imperative. Don't command yourself to "Calm down!" or "Relax!"[these are all some kind of relaxation,they may help if you really feel so anxious that you can not go on writing]

It is such a coincidence that I just received a message about how to cope with high pressure by 12520.
The way it offered is that close your eyes,have a deep breathing,clenched your fist and exerted all your strength to the clenching fist until when you can’t stand with it.Go over it for several times and it will make effective impact.
