21、When I was 27 years old, I went to teach seventh graders math. And like any teacher, I made quizzes and tests. I gave out homework assignments. When the work came back, I calculated grades. What struck me was that IQ was not the only difference between my best and my worst students. Some of my strongest performers did not have high IQ scores. Some of my smartest kids weren’t doing so well. And that got me thinking.
After several more years of teaching, I came to the conclusion that what we need in education is a much better understanding of students and learning from a motivational perspective, from a psychological perspective. In education, the one thing we know how to measure best is IQ. But what if doing well in school and in life depends on much more than your ability to learn quickly and easily?
So I started studying kids and adults in all kinds of super challenging settings, and in every study my question was, who is successful here and why? I studied new teachers working in really tough neighborhoods, asking which will be the most effective at improving learning outcomes for their students? As a result, it wasn’t good looks, physical health, and it wasn’t IQ. It was grit (毅力). Grit is working really hard to make your future a reality. Grit is living life like it’s a marathon.
To me, the most shocking thing about grit is how little we know, how little science knows, about building it. Every day, parents and teachers ask me, “How do I build grit in kids? What do I do to teach kids a solid work ethic? How do I keep them motivated for the long run?” The honest answer is, I don’t know.
What I do know is that talent doesn't make you gritty. In fact, in our data, grit is usually unrelated or even inversely related to measures of talent. In other words, we need to be gritty about getting our kids grittier.
【1】In writing paragraph 1, the author aims to ________.
A．make a comparison
B．give a definition
C．reach a conclusion
D．lead in a topic
【2】What can we learn from paragraph 2?
A．IQ decides your study performance.
B．Grit has nothing to do with your IQ.
C．Lack of talent is no reason for taking no action.
D．We should study further on students and learning.
【3】What made the author most astonished about grit?
A．Parents and teachers often ignore it.
B．We have little knowledge about it.
C．Schools focus more about it than families.
D．How he keeps students motivated for the long run.
【4】Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text?
A．The Key to Success
B．Brave Minds Never Feel Down
C．Reflections on School Education
D．Failure Is the Mother of Success
22、Human brains begin growing and developing at a very young age. They learn from the simplest experiences, which enable your children to be aware of the world. There’s no denying that outdoor play helps a lot!
Times when children have to wait for their turns on playground equipment and following the playground rules by sharing, all these form components of a healthy social-emotional development. Young children develop their social-emotional skills through practice and small steps over time.
As parents or caregivers, it is fairly simple to support your child’s social-emotional skills. Acts like holding him, touching him, and speaking to him and giving him loving care and attention are all helping factors. When you allow them freedom to play, it is important to follow their interests in helping build their social-emotional skills.
Difficulties in social-emotional skills can often lead to children having trouble when playing with other children. Becoming easily angry or not empathizing (理解) with other children are all signs that may point in this direction. This can in turn lead to them not empathizing with the needs of other children.
As for the development of cognitive (认知的) skills, these develop through practice and opportunity over time. And while some cognitive skills may be genetic, most are learned through real life situations. In other words, learning and thinking skills can be improved through experiences.
To enable them to learn, it is important that we are mindful of what our children are interested in. And this realization is only set in place once the child is given enough room and time to grow and explore.
Depriving children of such experiences can mean that they might struggle with higher- level thinking skills. And while it is normal to keep them safe, we forget that by rushing them and cutting down on play time, we’re actually causing more harm than good.
【1】What can playing with other children greatly help children do?
A．Learn from other children.
B．Develop their social emotion.
C．Promote their personal hobbies.
D．Help them to control their emotion.
【2】What usually brings trouble to a child while playing with other children?
A．Not understanding others.
B．Caring too much about others.
C．Lacking social emotional skills.
D．Being more selfish than selfless.
【3】What does the underlined word “depriving” in the last paragraph mean?
A．Taking away.
B．Providing for.
C．Referring to.
D．Focusing on.
【4】What is the main purpose of the text?
A．To call on us to promote children’s interest.
B．To show us the importance of social emotions.
C．To tell us how to improve children’s social emotions.
D．To persuade parents to allow their children to play outdoors.
23、In the kitchen of my mother’s houses there has always been a wooden stand（木架）with a small notepad（记事本）and a hole for a pencil.
I’m looking for paper on which to note down the name of a book I am recommending to my mother. Over forty years since my earliest memories of the kitchen pad and pencil, five houses later, the current paper and pencil look the same as they always did. Surely it can’t be the same pencil? The pad is more modern, but the wooden stand is definitely the original one.
“I’m just amazed you still have the same stand for holding the pad and pencil after all these year.” I say to her, walking bank into the living-room with a sheet of paper and the pencil. “You still use a pencil. Can’t you afford a pen?”
My mother replies a little sharply. “It works perfectly well. I’ve always kept the stand in the kitchen. I never knew when I might want to note down an idea, and I was always in the kitchen in these days.”
Immediately I can picture her, hair wild, blue housecoat covered in flour, a wooden spoon in one hand, the pencil in the other, her mouth moving silently. My mother smiles and says, “One day I was cooking and watching baby Pauline, and I had a brilliant thought, but the stand was empty. One of the children must have taken the paper. So I just picked up the breadboard and wrote it all down on the back. It turned out to be a real breakthrough for solving the mathematical problem I was working on.”
This story—which happened before I was born—reminds me how extraordinary my mother was, and is, as a gifted mathematician. I feel embarrassed that I complain about not having enough child-free time to work. Later, when my mother is in the bathroom, I go into her kitchen and turn over the breadboards. Sure enough, on the back of the smallest one, are some penciled marks I recognize as mathematics. Those symbols have traveled unaffected through fifty years, rooted in the soil of a cheap wooden breadboard, invisible（看不到的）exhibits at every meal.

24、Who do you count as your friends? From our BFF to a workmate, it’s good to have someone to draw the fat with or offer comfort and support. But the recent lockdown we have endured has made of us question our friendships. We’ve fallen out of touch with friends and acquaintances. But do we actually have to restart every relationship we once had? It might be time to take stock and think about who you kept in touch with, who you missed talking to, and who you didn’t. In short, maybe it’s time to reset your list of real mates.
There’s no obligation to stay friends. Bryan Lufkin says, “While people have known for years that friendships are unquestionably good for your health, experts say it’s only natural for acquaintances and even friends to fall by the wayside as time goes on.”
Of course, it can be hard to choose who’s in your friendship circle. This is what Suzanne Degges-White, professor of counselling at Northern Illinois University, calls our “friendscape”. She says. “In life, as we go through certain stages and ages, our attention shifts, and we want to be around people who are like us.”
So, changing friends is normal, but we still need those special pals who have known us long term. These are friendships we invest time in. These are your inner circle of friends—your “shoulders to cry on”—and you have to see them at least once a week to keep them in that circle. The friends that do drift are mostly “friendships of convenience”. But the advice for maintaining a good friendship is to share how you feel with someone you trust—this can help strengthen your friendship as well as giving you both a chance to support each other.
【1】What could we do about friendships in the recent lockdown?
A．Recover our friendships.
B．Reflect on our friendships.
C．Develop new friendships.
D．Put an end to our friendships.
【2】What do Bryan Lufkin’s words mean?
A．Some friendships will not necessarily stay for life.
B．Some friendships might not be good for our health.
C．True friendships will surely survive the long years.
D．True friendships develop naturally as time goes by.
【3】Who would most probably stay in our friendship circle?
A．Friends at the same life stages.
B．Friends with the same interests.
C．Friends always staying around.
D．Friends living in neighboring areas.
【4】What does the author suggest we do in the last paragraph?
A．Cry on our friends’ shoulders.
B．Change inner circle friends.
C．Devote time to true friendships.
D．Suit our friends’ conveniences.
