8、ailure. The generation born between 1980 and 2001 grew up playing sports where scores and performance were played down because “everyones winner.” And their report cards sounded more positive than ever before. As a result, Stanford University professor Carol Dweck, PhD, calls them “the overpraised g

9、eneration.”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（思维形式）that have a great effect on how we react to it. Heres how they work:A fixed mind-set is grounded in the belief that talent is genetic youre a born a

10、rtist, point guard, or numbers person. The fixed mind-set believes its sure to succeed without much effort and regards failure as personal shame. When things get difficult, its quick to blame, lie, and even stay away from future difficulties.On the other hand, a growth mind-set believes that no tale

11、nt is entirely heaven-sent and that effort and learning make everything possible. Because the ego (自尊心) isnt on the line as much, the growth mind-set sees failure as a chance rather than shame. When faced with a difficulty, its quick to rethink, change and try again. In fact, it enjoys this experien

12、ce.We are all born with growth mind-sets. (Otherwise, we wouldnt 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. Dwecks book, Mind-set:The New Psychology of Success, and online instructio

13、nal 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.21. What does the author think about the present generation?A. They dont do well at school.B. They are ofte

14、n misunderstood.C. They are eager to win in sports.D. They are given too much praise.22. What does the growth mind-set believe?A. Admitting failure is shameful.B. Talent comes with ones birth.C. Scores should be highly valued.D. Getting over difficulties is enjoyable.23. What should parents do for t

15、heir children based on Dwecks 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.BSo many of us hold on to little complaints that may have come from an argument, a misunderstanding, the way we were ra

16、ised, or some other painful events. Stubbornly, we wait for someone else to reach out to us believing this is the only way we can forgive or rekindle a friendship or family relationship.A friend of mine, recently told me that she hadnt spoken to her son in almost three years. She said that she and h

17、er son had had a disagreement about his wife and that she wouldnt speak to him again unless he called first. When I suggested that she be the one to reach out, she said,“ I cant do that. Hes the one who should apologize. ” After a little gentle encouragement，however, she did decide to be the first o

18、ne to reach out. To her amazement, her son was grateful for her willingness to call and offered an apology of his own. As is usually the case, when someone takes the chance and reaches out, everyone wins.Whenever we hold on to our anger, we turn“ small stuff ” into really“ big stuff” in our minds. W

19、e start to believe that our positions are more important than our happiness. They are not. If you want to be a more peaceful person you must understand that being right is almost never more important than allowing yourself to be happy. The way to be happy is to let go, and reach out. Let other peopl

20、e be right. This doesnt mean that youre wrong. Everything will be fine. Youll experience the peace of letting go, as well as the joy of letting others be right.You11 also notice that, as you reach out and let others be “right”, they will become less defensive? They might even reach back. But, if for

21、 some reasons they dont, thats okay too. You 11 have the inner satisfaction of knowing that you have done your part to create a more loving world, and certainly you11 be more peaceful yourself.24. The underlined word “ rekindle” in Paragraph 1 probably means ?A. recover B. develop C. accept D. repla

22、ce 25. In the authors opinion, we hold on to our anger often because we think A. we can turn small issues into big ones. B. our positions are higher than others. C. our own opinions matter most. D. others will be less defensive. 26. The best thing to do after a quarrel is to .A. let go of our own ri

23、ghts. B. realize that you are wrong. C. expect others to give in. D. apologize to others first. 27. What is the main idea of the passage?A. People should keep peaceful when facing small stuff. B. Reaching out and apologizing wins one peace and happiness. C. We should tell apart small and big stuff i

24、n our daily life. D. Its necessary to enjoy our friendship and family relationship. CAn extinct mountain goat that was once common in the Pyrenees became the first animal to be brought back from extinction. Researchers used frozen DNA to produce a clone, but the newborn kid died within minutes of bi

25、rth due to breathing difficulties.The Pyrenean ibex is a type of mountain goat, which is believed to have died out completely in 2000. Before the death of the last known individual,which was known as Celia, biologists took cells from her skin and ears. An earlier cloning attempt to use the skin cell

26、s failed. But the latest attempt involved the creation of 439 cloned embryos. Of these cloned embryos, 57 were put into the female domestic goats, but only one goat gave birth and the newborn cloned kid died after seven minutes as a result of lung disease.Researchers say that other cloned animals, i

27、ncluding sheep, have been born with similar lung disease, but they say that overall the experiment was a major step forward in the effort to bring the ibex back to its mountain home. The leading researcher Jose Folch says, “the cloned kid was genetically like the ibex; in species such as the ibex, c

28、loning is the only possibility to avoid its complete disappearance.”The failure to produce a living clone from DNA that was frozen only a decade ago shows the difficulty researchers would face in trying to bring back species that have been extinct（灭绝的）for decades or centuries. Researchers have had t

29、he idea of bringing back the Tasmanian tiger, which went extinct in 1936. There are, however, other species that have been seriously suggested for cloning, such as the giant panda, the African bongo antelope, the Sumatran tiger and the pygmy hippo. Supporters believe cloning provides hope of keeping

30、 these endangered animals alive before they die out28. What do we know about the cloned ibex?A. It died of lung disease.B. It was the first cloned animal in the world.C. It lived for thirteen years.D. It was born in 2000.29. Jose Foleh would agree that cloning A. is not suitable and should be banned

32、d species.D. cloning seldom results in physical problems for animals.31.Whats the best title for this passage?A. Great advancement in cloning goats.B. Difficulties in saving extinct animals.C. Public concerns about cloning.D. Cloning brought back an extinct species for a whileDMany of the people who

33、 appear most often and most gloriously in history books are great conquerors and generals and soldiers, whereas the people who really helped civilization forward are often never mentioned at all.We do not know who launched a seaworthy boat, or calculated the length of the year; but we know all about

34、 the killers and destroyers. People think a great deal of them, so much so that on all the highest pillars in the great cities of the world you will find the figure of a conqueror or a general or a soldier. And I think most people believe that the greatest countries are those that have beaten in bat

35、tle the greatest number of other countries and ruled over them as conquerors.It is just possible they are, but they are not the most civilized. Animals fight; so do savages; hence to be good at fighting is to be good in the way in which an animal or a savage（野人）is good, but it is not to be civilized

36、. Even being good at getting other people to fight for you and telling them how to do it most efficientlythis, after all, is what conquerors and generals have doneis not being civilized. People fight to settle quarrels. Fighting means killing, and civilized people ought to be able to find some way o

37、f setting their disputes other than by seeing which side can kill off the greater number of the other side, and then saying that that side which has killed most has won. And not only has it won, but because it has won, it had been in the right. For that is what going to war means; it means saying th

38、at might（权利） is right.32. The author thinks that the conquerors and generals and soldiers _.A. only appear glorious in history books B. are greater than any other people C. are not as great as described in history books D. do not really help civilization forward 33. As it is indicated in the passage

39、, the figure of a conqueror or a general or a soldier is put on the highest pillars in the great cities of the world mainly because _.A. people respect them very much B. they fought bravely to protect their cities C. people think they fought too brutally（野蛮地） D. they conquered many cities and countr

40、ies 34. What is the writers attitude towards the countries that ruled over a large number of other countries ?A. Positive. B. Critical. C. honorable. D. Respectful. 35.

44、kind of connection between math and music.If you can get a sense of the ebb and flow of music and musical language, mathematical concepts should begin to make more sense.
