科目:高中英语 来源: 题型:阅读理解
Why are so many people so afraid of failure? Quite simply because no one tells us how to fail so that failure becomes an experience that will lead to growth. We forget that failure is part of the human condition and that every person has the right to fail.?
Most parents work hard at either preventing failure or protecting their children from the knowledge that they have failed. One way is to lower standards. A mother describes her child's hurriedly-made table as “perfect”!Even though it couldn't stand on uneven (not same in height) legs. Another way is to shift blame. If John fails in science, his teacher is unfair or stupid.?
The trouble with failure—prevention methods is that they leave a child unequipped for life in the real world. The young need to learn that no one can be best at everything, no one can win all the time—and that it's possible to enjoy a game even when you don't win. A child who's not invited to a birthday party, who doesn't make the honor roll or the baseball team feels terrible, of course. But parents should not offer a quick comfort prize or say “It doesn't matter”,because it does. The young should be allowed to experience disappointment and be helped to master it.
Failure is never pleasurable. It hurts grown-ups and children exactly alike. But it can make a positive contribution to your life once you learn to use it. Step one is to ask “Why did I fail?”. Control the natural impulse(冲动) to blame someone else. Ask yourself what you did wrong, how you can improve. If someone else can help, don't be shy about asking them.?
This passage mainly tells us about _______.?
A. the reasons why people fail
B. how to fail?
C. the ways to prevent failures
D. the importance of facing failures?
When the writer says “every person has the right to fail”, he means to say _______.
A. the world is full of failures
B. no one is perfect?
C. failures are quite common in our lives
D. no one can grow up mentally without failures?
By “protecting their children from the knowledge that they have failed”, the writer means that most parents try their best _______.?
A. to let their children know that they won't fail?
B. not to teach their children about knowledge of failure?
C. to provide their children for the knowledge against failure?
D. to keep their children from realizing that they failed?
According to the writer, _______.
A. parents should tell their children to think nothing of not being chosen into a football team?
B. children should be encouraged to get rid of disappointment all by themselves
C. parents should judge what their children have done as it is?
D. children should learn to enjoy a game that they won't win??

One day a very wealthy father took his son on a trip to the country with the firm purpose of showing his son how poor people can be.
They spent a couple of days and nights on the farm of which would be considered a very poor family. On their return from their trip, the father asked his son, “ How was the trip?”
“It was great , Dad .”
“Did you see how poor people can be?” the father asked.
“Oh yeah?” said the son.
“So what did you learn from the trip?” asked the father.
The son answered, “I saw that we have one dog and they have four. We have a pool that reaches to the middle of our garden and they have a creek (小溪) that has no end. We have lanterns in our garden and they have the stars at night. We have a small piece of land to live on and they have fields that go beyond our sight. We have servants who serve us, but they serve themselves . We buy our food, but they grow theirs. We have walls around our property(财产) to protect us but they have friends to protect them.”
With this the boy’s father was speechless .
Then his son added , “Dad, thank you for showing me how poor we are.”
Too many times we forget what we have and concentrate on what we don’t have. What is one person’s priceless object is another’s prize possession. It’s all decided on one’s perspective (视角). Think about what would happen if we all gave thanks for what we have, instead of worrying about what we don’t have.
Be thankful for every single thing in your life, exactly as it is now–and especially your friends. Be sure to take the time to express your appreciation and gratitude for the people whom you are close to.

科目:高中英语 来源:2012年全国普通高等学校招生统一考试英语(全国I卷带解析) 题型:阅读理解
Grown-ups are often surprised by how well they remember something they learned as children but have never practiced ever since. A man who has not had a chance to go swimming for years can still swim as well as ever when he gets back in the water. He can get on a bicycle after many years and still ride away. He can play catch and hit a ball as well as his son. A mother who has not thought about the words for years can teach her daughter the poem that begins "Twinkle, twinkle, little star" or remember the story of Cinderella or Goldilocks and the Three Bears.
One explanation is the law of overlearning, which can be stated as follows: Once we have learned something, additional learning trials(尝试) increase the length of time we will remember it.
In childhood we usually continue to practice such skills as swimming, bicycle riding, and playing baseball long after we have learned them. We continue to listen to and remind ourselves of words such as "Twinkle, twinkle, little star" and childhood tales such as Cinderella and Goldilocks. We not only learn but overlearn.
The multiplication tables(乘法口诀表) are an exception to the general rule that we forget rather quickly the things that we learn in school, because they are another of the things we overlearn in childhood.
The law of overlearning explains why cramming(突击学习)for an examination, though it may result in a passing grade, is not a satisfactory way to learn a college course. By cramming, a student may learn the subject well enough to get by on the examination, but he is likely soon to forget almost everything he learned. A little overlearning, on the other hand, is really necessary for one's future development.
【小题1】What is the main idea of paragraph 1?
A.People remember well what they learned in childhood. |
B.Children have a better memory than grown-ups. |
C.Poem reading is a good way to learn words. |
D.Stories for children are easy to remember. |
A.presenting research findings |
B.setting down general rules |
C.making a comparison |
D.using examples |
A.a result of overlearning |
B.a special case of cramming |
C.a skill to deal with math problems |
D.a basic step towards advanced studies |
A.Commonly accepted rules. |
B.The multiplication tables. |
C.Things easily forgotten. |
D.School subjects. |
A.It leads to failure in college exams. |
B.It's helpful only in a limited way. |
C.It's possible to result in poor memory. |
D.It increases students' learning interest. |
