Thugh Sylvia had grwn up amng tall buildings and busy streets, she had recently fund herself mre at hme in the Maine cuntryside, where she had cme t help her aging grandmther. She let the cw ut t walk in the nearby fields every mrning and led it back hme in the evenings, staying with the wds and her animal neighburs every day.
One evening, when Sylvia walked back hme frm the fields, she saw a stranger cming ut f the frest. When the man reached her, he explained that he was quite interested in cllecting rare birds and was searching fr the white hern (苍鹭) nested (筑巢) in the area accrding t his bk. He asked if he culd stay at her huse. Thugh Sylvia was a little bit wrried, she led him t her grandmther.
Over dinner, Sylvia's grandmther tld the man hw her sn had lved making friends with animals while he enjyed living in the wild and that Sylvia was just the same. On hearing the news, the man ffered Sylvia a lt f mney t help him find the white hern, telling that he planned t sht (打猎) and put it int his cllectin. Sylvia knew her grandmther had little savings, s she accepted.
The next day, Sylvia and the man searched the frest fr the white hern, but they came back empty - handed. At first, Sylvia was afraid f the man's shting and cllectin plan. With sme time passing by, she was surprised t find that he was a persn with a warm heart and rich knwledge f birds. The tw led the cw hme tgether in the afternn.
Just befre bed, Sylvia remembered that ne tree in the frest std taller than the rest. If she managed t climb it, she wuld surely find the hern’s nest belw. The thught made her s excited that she culdn’t sleep. She finally gt ut f huse in the early mrning t find the hern befre the man awke.
Reaching the tp f the tree was a success in itself, but nthing was mre amazing than the mment Sylvia truly saw the hern. High as a bird, she felt she and the hern were ne, and she suddenly realized she culdn’t be part f its death. The man was waiting fr her when she returned hme, but she refused t help him any lnger.
Later, Sylvia wndered whether giving up the mney—and the man’s friendship—was really wrth (值得) the hern’s life, but the treasures she might have gained were easily frgtten amng the beauty f the wild.

IS SUCCESS ABOUT LEARNING OR SHOWING YOU’RE SMART?
Benjamin nce said, “I dn’t divide (分) the wrld int the weak and the strng, r the successes and the failures, I divide the wrld int the learners and nnlearners.”
What wuld make smene a nnlearner? Everyne is brn with an intense drive t learn. Babies practise their skills daily, even the mst difficult tasks f a lifetime, like learning t walk and talk. They never think it’s t hard. Babies dn't wrry abut making mistakes. They walk, they fall and they get up. They just mve frward.
What culd put an end t this kind f learning? The fixed mindset (固定的思维模式). As sn as children becme able t evaluate (评价) themselves, sme f them becme afraid f hard tasks. They becme afraid f nt being smart. I have studied thusands f students, and yu can’t believe hw many peple refuse a chance t learn.
We ffered fur - year - lds a chice: They culd red an easy task r they culd try a harder ne. Even at this age, children with the fixed mindset—stuck with the safe ne. Children with the grwth mindset—the nes wh believed yu culd get smarter by learning—thught it was a strange chice. Why are yu asking me this? Why wuld anyne want t keep ding the same task ver and ver? They chse ne hard ne after anther. “I’m dying t slve them!” ne little girl said.
S children with the fixed mindset want t make sure they are successful. Smart peple shuld always be successful. But fr children with the grwth mindset, success is abut
practising themselves. It's abut learning t becme smarter.
One seventh - grade girl made a cnclusin. “I think being smart is smething yu have t wrk isn't just given t kids, if they're nt sure f an answer, will nt raise their hand t answer the questin. But what I usually d is t raise my hand, because if I'm wrng, then my mistake will be crrected. Just by ding that I'm imprving my ability.”
54. What des the writer want t tell by using the example f babies in Paragraph 2?
A. Walking and talking are very difficult.
B. It's easy fr babies t learn different skills.
C. Peple are brn with abilities t learn.
D. Babies need t face many tasks every day.
55. Which f the fllwing is a fixed mindset accrding t the passage?
A. Being happy with his wn grwth.
B. Wrking hard and being thirsty t learn.
C. Aviding shwing hw smart he is.
D. Being afraid f facing different failures.
56. What des the girl mean by saying “I'm dying t slve them!”?
A. She can't wait t give herself a task t practise.
B. She thinks a healthy bdy can help learn better.
C. She believes it's painful t slve the prblems.
D. She desn't find it difficult t finish these tasks.
57. What's the main purpse f the passage?
A. Be a gd learner in babyhd.B. Stay active when facing difficulties.
