When I was in the fifth grade and Mr. Gardner asked a question, my hand would often shoot up in enthusiasm. After giving me a few opportunities, he would try to give other students a chance. My hand, though, would remain in the air, and after some time, I’d start waving it around. Then, there was the time I entered drumming classes. But all we were allowed to do in the first class was practice one beat over and over again. I never went back.
I would have done terribly in the Stanford Marshmallow(果浆软糖) Experiment. In this classic study, researchers gave children a choice between one marshmallow right away and two later. The results showed that those who could wait 15 minutes ended up scoring 210 points higher on the SAT, an examination that American high school students take before they go to college.
So clearly, delaying(延迟的) gratification or bearing up under pain have their benefits. It needs patience, which keeps us from being stuck to ideas formed previously, and helps us let go of our strong desire for consequences. We come to accept that we don’t always or immediately know what is best, and learn to recognize that our reality is in constant changes. Patience improves our understanding of deeper truths and helps us expand our views.
The journey of patience is rooted in knowing that our present reality will finally give way to changes. But changes won’t always happen when we think they should, and patience with ourselves comes from accepting that there are things we can control and things we can’t. And though we must make great efforts to keep pushing the boundaries of our awareness and to improve our ability to rest in comfort in the present moment, how fast we develop isn’t up to us.
That same fifth grader who couldn’t wait to speak out answers now sees the value of meeting questions with a heart of patience.
1.Why did the author wave his hand around in class?
A. He wanted to entertain himself.
B. He tried to show his impatience.
C. He was making fun of his fellow students.
D. He wanted to give his fellow students a chance.
2.What’s the purpose of the Stanford Marshmallow Experiment?
A. To test children’s concentration levels.
B. To test whether children have sweet teeth.
C. To test patience and its potential advantages.
D. To test the bond between patience and desire.
3.Which of the following can replace the underlined word “gratification” in Para. 3?
A. Progress. B. Patience.
C. Assistance. D. Satisfaction.
4.What is the main reason for people to have patience according to the text?
A. Constant changes. B. Present reality.
C. An absence of self-control. D. A strong desire for consequences.
