Make Up Yur Mind t Succeed
Kind-hearted parents have unknwingly left their children defenseless against failure. The generatin brn between 1980 and 2001 grew up playing sprts where scres and perfrmance were played dwn because “everyne’s a winner." And their reprt cards sunded mre psitive(正面的) than ever befre. As a result, Stanfrd University prfessr Carl Dweck, PhD, calls them “the verpraised generatin.”
Dweck has been studying hw peple deal with failure fr 40 years. Her research has led her t find ut tw clearly different mind-sets that have a great effect n hw we react t it. Here’s hw they wrk：
A fixed mind-set is grunded in the belief that talent is genetic-yu’re a brn artist, pint guard, r numbers persn. The fixed mind-set believes it’s sure t succeed withut much effrt and regards failure as persnal shame. When things get difficult, it is quick t blame, lie, and even stay away frm future difficulties.
On the ther hand, a grwth mind-set believes that n talent is entirely heaven-sent and that effrt and learning make everything pssible. Because the eg (自尊) isn’t n the line as much, the grwth mind-set sees failure as a chance rather than shame. When faced with a difficulty, it is quick t rethink, change and try again. In fact, it enjys this experience.
We are all brn with grwth mind-sets. (Otherwise, we wuldn’t be able t live in the wrld.) But parents, teachers, and instructrs ften push us int fixed mind-sets by encuraging certain actins and misdirecting praise. Dweck’s bk, Mind-set： The New Psychlgy f Success, and nline instructinal prgram explain this in depth. But she says there are many little things yu can start ding tday t make sure that yur children, grandchildren and even yu are never defeated by failure.
28. What des the authr think abut the generatin brn between 1980 and 2001? .
A. They dn’t d well at schl.B. They are ften misunderstd.
C. They are eager t win in sprts D. They are given t much praise.
29 .A fixed mind-set persn is prbably ne wh .
A. desn’t want t wrk hard B. cares a lt abut persnal safety
C. cannt share his ideas with thers D. can succeed with the help f teachers
30. What des the grwth mind-set believe? .
A. Admitting failure is shameful.B. Talent cmes with ne’s birth.
C S Scres shuld be highly valued.D. Getting ver difficulties is enjyable.
31. What shuld parents d fr their children based n Dweck’s study? .
A. Encurage them t learn frm failures.B. Prevent them frm making mistakes.
C. Guide them in ding little things.D. Help them grw with praise.

The questin led me t nly ne answer： because I wanted t make a difference in the wrld, and with all the media attentin n my success, I culd. I immediately knew what that difference had t be: hpe in the lives f the children in Africa. Six mnths earlier, I’d been invited t Eritrea as an ambassadr fr Olympic Aid.
