　　(2012·高考大纲全国卷Ⅱ)

　　Make Up Your Mind to Succeed

　　Kind-hearted parents have unknowingly left their children defenseless against failure.The generation born between 1980 and 2001 grew up playing sports where scores and performance were played down because “everyone’s a winner.” And their report cards sounded more positive (正面的) than ever before.As a result，Stanford University professor Carol Dweck，PhD，calls them “the overpraised generation.”

　　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 that have a great effect on how we react to it.Here’s how they work：

　　A fixed mind-set is grounded in the belief that talent (才能) is genetic－you’re a born artist，point guard，or numbers person.The fixed mind-set believes it’s sure to succeed without much effort and regards failure as personal shame.When things get difficult，it’s quick to blame，lie，and even stay away from future difficulties.

　　On the other hand，a growth mind-set believes that no talent is entirely heaven-sent and that effort and learning make everything possible.Because the ego (自尊) isn’t on the line as much，the growth mind-set sees failure as a chance rather than shame.When faced with a difficulty，it’s quick to rethink，change and try again.In fact，it enjoys this experience.

　　We are all born with growth mind-sets.(Otherwise，we wouldn’t 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.Dweck’s book，Mind-set：The New Psychology of Success，and online instructional 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.

　　【语篇解读】　本文为一篇议论文。80后与90后在成长过程中认为“人人皆为成功者”，原因是由过度表扬引起的。斯坦福大学的教授研究证明人的成功取决于人的心态。过度的表扬对成功无益。

　　1．What does the author think about the present generation?

　　A．They don’t do well at school.

　　B．They are often misunderstood.

　　C．They are eager to win in sports.

　　D．They are given too much praise.

　　解析：选D。细节理解题。根据文章第一段最后一句“...calls them ‘the overpraised generation.’”可知作者赞同Carol Dweck教授的观点：“这代人(80后和90后)被给予了太多的表扬。”A项“他们在学校表现不好”；B项“他们经常被误解”；C项“他们渴望在体育运动中获胜”，均不合题意。

　　2．A fixed mind-set person is probably one who ________.

　　A．doesn’t want to work hard

　　B．cares a lot about personal safety

　　C．cannot share his ideas with others

　　D．can succeed with the help of teachers

　　解析：选A。细节理解题。根据文章第三段中的“The fixed mind-set believes it’s sure to succeed without much effort...”可知怀有消极心态的人认为不必付出努力就可以成功，所以“他们不想努力工作”。其他三项不合题意。

　　3．What does the growth mind-set believe?

　　A．Admitting failure is shameful.

　　B．Talent comes with one’s birth.

　　C．Scores should be highly valued.

　　D．Getting over difficulties is enjoyable.

　　解析：选D。细节理解题。根据文章第四段最后一句“In fact，it enjoys this experience.”可知怀有积极心态的人不但不会逃避困难，反而会“把克服困难当作享受”。A、B两项是怀有消极心态的人的观点。C项文章中没有提及。

　　4．What should parents do for their children based on Dweck’s 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.

　　解析：选A。细节理解题。根据文章最后一句可知父母有很多事情要做以确保后代甚至本人不再被失败击倒，而要做到这一点，勇敢地面对失败并“从中吸取教训”就尤为重要了。

　　B

　　(2016·郑州第一次质量检测)Scientists say they now have proof to support the old-fashioned advice that it’s best to_sleep_on_a_problem.They say sleep strengthens the memory and helps the brain organize the masses of information we receive each day.

　　The lead researcher Bob Stickgold at Harvard Medical School said，“Sleep helps us draw rules from our experiences.It’s like knowing the difference between dogs and cats even if it’s hard to explain.”

　　The US research team studied how well students remembered connections between words and symbols，reports New Scientist.They compared how the students performed if they had had a sleep between seeing the words and having the test，and if they had not slept.They found that people were better able to remember lists of related words after a night’s sleep than after the same time spent awake during the day.They also found it easier to remember themes that the words had in common.But they forgot around one in four more themes if they had been awake.

　　Prof.John Groeger，University of Surrey’s Sleep Research Centre，said，“People have been trying for years to find out what the purpose of sleep is，as we know that only certain parts of it have a restorative (促使康复的)value.”

　　“We form and store huge numbers of experiences in the head every day，and sleep seems to be the way the brain deals with them all.”

　　5．The underlined phrase “to sleep on a problem”in Paragraph 1 most likely means “________”．

　　A．to pay full attention to a problem

　　B．to wait until the next day for a decision

　　C．to sleep to forget a problem

　　D．to have difficulty in sleeping

　　解析：选B。短语理解题。根据第一段的最后一句可猜测，短语“to sleep on a problem”的意思是带着问题入睡，到第二天再作出决定。故选B。

　　6. In the study by the US research team，students were asked to________.

　　A．put together words of similar meanings

　　B．remember words and their meanings

　　C．show their knowledge of words

　　D．make up lists of related words

　　解析：选B。细节理解题。根据第三段的第一句话可知，在研究中，研究者要求学生记忆单词和它的含义。

　　7. Which of the following may be easier to remember?

　　A．Themes learned right before the test.

　　B．Rules from personal experiences.

　　C．Words learned before a good sleep.

　　D．Ideas stored together in the brain.

　　解析：选C。推理判断题。根据第三段的“They found that people were better able to remember lists of related words after a night’s sleep than after the same time spent awake during the day.”可判断如果我们在睡觉前记忆单词，在睡眠时可得到巩固，记忆的效果就要好些。因此答案为C。

　　8．What may be the importance of the research?

　　A．It shows that sleep may help us manage information.

　　B．It helps find out the common themes of words.

　　C．It tells us that more sleep can improve health.

　　D．It proves the value of old-fashioned advice.

　　解析：选A。推理判断题。根据最后一段中研究者说的话“We form and store huge numbers of experiences in the head every day，and sleep seems to be the way the brain deals with them all.”可判断研究的重要性在于，研究表明：睡眠可能有助于大脑处理信息。
