    Make Up Your Mind to Succeed

    Kind-hearted parents have unknowingly left their children defenseless against failure. The generation born between 1980 and 2001 grew up playing sports where scores and performance were played down because “everyone’s a winner.” And their report cards sounded more positive than ever before. As a result, Stanford University professor Carol Dweck, PhD, calls them “the overpraised generation.”

    Dweck has been studying how people deal with failure for 40 years. Her research has led her to find out two clearly different mind-sets that have a great effect on how we react to it. Here’s how they work:

    A fixed mind-set is grounded in the belief that talent is genetic – you’re a born artist, point guard, or numbers person. The fixed mind-set believes it’s sure to succeed without much effort and regards failure as personal shame. When things get difficult, it’s quick to blame, lie, and even stay away from future difficulties.

    On the other hand, a growth mind-set believes that no talent is entirely heaven-sent and that effort and learning make everything possible. Because the ego (自尊) isn’t on the line as much, the growth mind-set sees failure as a chance rather than shame. When faced with a difficulty, it’s quick to rethink, change and try again. In fact, it enjoys this experience.

    We are all born with growth mind-sets. (Otherwise, we wouldn’t be able to live in the world.) But parents, teachers, and instructors often push us into fixed mind-sets by encouraging certain actions and misdirecting praise. Dweck’s book, Mind-set: The New Psychology of Success, and online instructional program explain this in depth. But she says there are many little things you can start doing today to make sure that your children, grandchildren and even you are never defeated by failure.

    1.What does the author think about the present generation?

    A. They don’t do well at school.

    B. They are often misunderstood.

    C. They are eager to win in sports.

    D. They are given too much praise.

    2.A fixed mind-set person is probably one who __________ .

    A. doesn’t want to work hard

    B. cares a lot about personal safety

    C. cannot share his ideas with others

    D. can succeed with the help of teachers

    3.What does the growth mind-set believe?

    A. Admitting failure is shameful.

    B. Talent comes with one’s birth.

    C. Scores should be highly valued.

    D. Getting over difficulties is enjoyable.

    4.What should parents do for their children based on Dweck’s study?

    A. Encourage them to learn from failures.

    B. Prevent them from making mistakes.

    C. Guide them in doing little things.

    D. Help them grow with praise.

    The Leaning Tower of Pisa was straight like a pole when the construction began in 1173. It started to shift direction soon after construction because of poor foundation in addition to the loose layer of subsoil(底土). At the beginning, it leaned to the southeast before the shaky foundation started to shift leaning towards the southwest. After the period of structural strengthening at the beginning of the 21st century, now the Leaning Tower of Pisa leans at an angle of 3.97 degrees.

    In 1178, the shift in direction was observed for the first time when the construction had progressed further to the third floor. The tower was heavy for the three-meter foundation that was built on a weak area of land.

    For compensating(补偿) the leaning position, the builders started to construct the upper floors with one side higher than the other one. This caused the tower to lean in the other direction. This unusual structure led to the tower being actually curved. In spite of these efforts, the tower kept on leaning.

    The government of Italy started to plan prevention of the complete collapse of the tower in 1964. However, a request was put forward by the authorities to keep the leaning position because of the tourism industry of the region.

    After nearly two decades of careful planning by engineers, historians and mathematicians, the stabilization efforts for the Leaning Tower of Pisa started in 1990. The tower was closed for the general public and the people living nearby moved away. For reducing the total weight of the tower, its seven bells which represented the seven musical notes were removed. The tower was reopened for the general public on December 15, 2001.

    In May 2008, after removing another 70 metric tons of earth, the engineers announced that the tower had been finally stabilized and it would remain stable for at least 200 years.

    1.The Leaning Tower of Pisa began to lean probably because ________.

    A. it was too high like a pole

    B. its foundation shook badly

    C. the work of repair was delayed

    D. the soil of its foundation was too weak

    2.People noticed the Leaning Tower of Pisa shift its direction ________.

    A. as soon as it was constructed

    B. during the construction

    C. at the end of the construction

    D. as soon as it was completed

    3.Who preferred not to change the leaning position of the Leaning Tower of Pisa?

    A. The authorities.

    B. The government.

    C. The engineers.

    D. The historians.

    4.Which of the following is the right order according to this passage?

    a. People noticed the tower began to shift its direction.

    b. The repair work was carried out last time.

    c. The Leaning Tower of Pisa was repaired for the first time.

    d. The Leaning Tower of Pisa was built.

    e. The tower was opened to the visitors again.

    f. The government started to make a plan for the tower.

    A. c,d,a,f,b,e B. f,e,a,d,c,b

    C. d,a,f,c,e,b D. d,e,b,f,c,a

    Our room was on the second floor but you could still hear the roar of the ocean and see the stars at night. I used to take long walks along the water. The food in town was wonderful and the people were very friendly. The area was very quiet and peaceful, and fairly deserted.

    The last evening of our vacation, however, we all heard strange footsteps following closely behind us as we were walking up to our room in the holiday centre. We turned around and noticed a fairly young man moving very rapidly across the beach and getting closer to us. He was tall and wore a baseball cap. We couldn’t see his face and he was approaching us very rapidly. The man’s actions made my dad very nervous. Dad warned us that we’d better try to make it to our hotel room as quickly as possible. I didn’t like my dad’s voice; I could hear fear in it. It was late and we were all alone. We didn’t have any cell phones on us. I never saw Dad as worried as he was then and I knew that something was terribly wrong. The sense of fear started to overwhelm Mom and me. We had had such a good time in town. Now, the night was rapidly turning into a dangerous situation.

    We could hear the man’s footsteps getting closer. Dad’s face was almost pale. The so-called intruder (侵入者) had moved nearer and nearer when all of a sudden, the nearby vending (自动贩卖) machine started going crazy and spitting out cans of soda! The noise actually scared the intruder and he ran out of sight. My parents were shaking, but we all turned around to see who had put money into the vending machine downstairs, and actually saved us, but no one was around at all. Not a soul.

    It’s one vacation I will never forget.

    1.Where did the author spend her vacation?

    A. Near a lake.B. At the seaside.

    C. In a village.D. In a mountain.

    2.What does the underlined word “overwhelm” in Paragraph 2 mean?

    A. move.B. impress.C. control.D. excite.

    3.What helped them get out of the trouble?

    A. Their quick action.

    B. Other people’s kind help.

    C. The young man’s warning.

    D. The noise from the vending machine.
