21、Why do kids make seemingly “careless” mistakes? While grown-ups may think it’s simply a matter of not listening, sometimes it’s about a failure of metacognition (元认知).

Metacognition is to understand your own thinking process. It’s when you’re aware (意识到) of your own thoughts and how you learn and solve problems. It helps you realize what you’re doing, make a plan and change your plan if needed to complete hard tasks!

Alicia Forsberg, a professor at the University of Sheffield, said, “Metacognition is a skill that plays an important part in learning different types of materials in many subjects.” For children, learning how to use metacognition can improve their school grades.

Meanwhile, a failure of metacognition might lead to careless mistakes. Forsberg points out an important part of metacognition called meta-memory. It is the awareness of and control we have over what we remember and what we’ve forgotten. The problem for children is that they may not realize they have forgotten something. For example, a child who fails to complete a task may have forgotten the instruction (指示), and not realize it has been forgotten. Children believe that if they don’t remember seeing something, it was never there at all. However, grown-ups know forgetting happens quite often.

The good news is that there are things teachers and parents can do to help. Forsberg suggests asking children what they remember about the instructions for a given task. Even if they think the instructions are easy to remember, they may still have forgotten something, so double-checking is always a good idea. Besides, making children describe what they learned in a lesson can help them realize not everything has been kept in their memory.

When children develop a better awareness of their own memory skills, they can use that information to tailor their learning. That understanding might encourage students to pause (暂停) and re-watch a video they are learning from, or to look back at their notes. Children differ in their metacognitive skills, so some might need to go back and look at what they may have forgotten more often.

Metacognition is like having a smart helper in your brain, which makes learning easier. If children understand their own thinking skills, they should be able to help themselves learn more effectively and avoid those seemingly “careless” mistakes.

【1】According to the passage, why might children make careless mistakes?

A．Because they have too many materials to learn.

B．Because they are not listening carefully in class.

C．Because they fail to realize they have forgotten something.

D．Because they dislike most of the subjects they are learning.

【2】What is Paragraph 5 mainly about?

A．News about teachers and students.

B．Ideas for remembering instructions.

C．Advice on understanding new lessons.

D．Ways of developing kids’ metacognition.

【3】The words “tailor their learning” in Paragraph 6 probably mean “________”.

A．play an active part in groups

B．push them to study harder

C．deal with the learning pressure

D．find suitable ways of learning

【4】The writer probably agrees that metacognition ________.

A．guides kids to follow the school rules easily

B．aims to draw kids’ attention to their strong points

C．helps kids have a better control over their learning

D．encourages kids to take a break away from school
