Are kids getting too much praise? Too much praise may be doing kids more harm than good.
A cover story in Scholastic Instructor magazine asks whether kids today are over-praised. The worry is that while trying to build up kids’ confidence (自信), parents are paying little attention to kids’ real goals and achievements. In a recent study, eighth graders in Korea and the United States were asked whether they were good at math. Among the American students, 39 percent said they were excellent at math, compared to just 6 percent of the Korean eighth graders. But the reality was kind of different. The Korean kids scored far better than the over-confident American students.
The disadvantage of too much praise is that kids may start to focus on the reward (奖励) rather than what they are learning. Worse, when a student fails, whose confidence comes from a blind sense of achievement rather than his or her real abilities, the result can be devastating (毁灭性). This doesn’t mean we shouldn’t praise our kids or that teachers shouldn’t try to build up their students’ self-confidence. But self-confidence should be the result of good grades and real achievements instead of empty praise from others.
Last month, Cognitive Daily reported that parents and teachers should be specific rather than general when they offer praise. An example of general praise is telling a child, “You’re smart.” Specific praise would be to say, “You did a good job on reading...”, or “You did great on your math test.” Kids who receive general praise about their abilities probably show “helpless” behavior when they meet with problems with learning, compared with kids who receive specific praise about their achievement on a task. The reason: a child who knows she’s a smart girl feel defeated (挫败的) if she has trouble reading a sentence. But a child who has been told she is a good reader will probably have confidence in that specific ability and work a little harder to deal with a more difficult book.
1.The study of the eighth graders in Paragraph 2 shows that ________.
A.Korean students are over-praised so they got higher scores
B.American students are over-confident but they achieve less
C.American students are really good at math
2.According to Paragraph 3. kids’ self-confidence should come from ________.
A.teachers’ love and support
B.what they are able to do well
C.a blind sense of achievement
3.Which of the following is the best example about specific praise?
A.Mr. Miller told her daughter “You are a fantastic girl”.
B.The headmaster wrote to one of his students, saying “I am so proud of you”.
C.Your English teacher said to you, “Your writing has improved a lot because of practice.”
4.Kids getting general praise will ________ in the face of problems with learning.
A.probably give up easily
B.encourage themselves to try again
C.work harder than before
5.The writer of the passage means to prove that ________.
A.too much praise may be doing kids more harm than good
B.Korean students are less confident than American students
C.Achievement lies in self-confidence

They say the average person makes 35,000 decisions a day. Yet in her new book, How Woman Decide, Therese Huston explores a widespread thing that many women fail to notice. “There’s a huge double standard when it comes to how men and women are viewed as decision makers,” explains Therese, a psychologist from Seattle University. Therese decided to write the book after looking at her bookshelf: bestselling books about decision-making—all written by men and featuring interviews with men like professional ball players.
“Once those women are at the table, will their decisions be taken as seriously as men’s?”Therese Wondered. “Men are respected as decision makers more than women, especially in the workplace, largely because there’s this cultural belief that women are unable to make smart choices at work.” So, Therese set out to part with the stereotypes(固有印象)to see what scientific research had found. “Scientific research shows that men and women struggle with decision-making in the similar way. The only disadvantage I found was that during the teenage years —teenage girls are more indecisive than teenage boys. That means boys can make a decision more easily. Otherwise, there’s few differences between the genders(性别).”
However, there are some differences. “Women are more collaborative(协作的),” says Therese. “A female boss is more likely to ask the opinions of those around her when making a choice. Women ask for advice, which helps make better decisions. However, this is often seen as a weakness rather than a strength.”
Therese also found that during times of stress, men and women make different choices, and the results are often better when women are involved. Study after study backs this view up. Neuroscientists Mara Mather and Nicole Lighthall from the University of Southern California studied the way men and women make decisions and found that in times of stress, they react very differently. During their study, which involved playing a virtual gambling(赌博)game, they found that when the females became stressed, they made smarter decisions—giving up while they were ahead or taking safe bets. But when the men became stressed, they did the opposite, risking everything for a small chance of a big win.
1.Why did Therese Huston write her book How Women Decide?
A.Women are less respected as decision makers.
B.Men have written too many bestselling books.

A.犹豫不决的 B.自负的 C.灵活的 D.气急败坏的
3.What is the difference between the genders in decision-making according to Therese Huston?
A.Men can make much quicker decisions than women.
B.Women are not serious enough when making decisions.
C.Women are likely to ask for advice when making decisions.
D.Teenage girls has more advantages in decision-making.
4.What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A.Women show less confidence in times of stress.
B.Men prefer to make risky in times of stress.
C.Men always show great bravery in times of stress.
D.Women stop making decisions when ahead in games.
5.What’s Therese’s final conclusion(结论) according to the passage?
A.There are great differences between the two genders.
B.Men are weaker in making smart decisions.
C.We should give up all cultural beliefs about genders.
D.Women are smart as decision makers.
