20．For years we have been told that encouraging a child's self-respect is important to his or her success in life．But child experts are now learning that too much praise can lead to the opposite effect． Praise-aholic kids who expect it at every turn may become teens who seek the same kind of approval from their friends when asked if they want to go in the backseat of the car．
The implication（含义） of saying"You are the prettiest girl in class，"or talking about the goals she scored but not her overall effort，is that you love her only when she looks the best，scores the highest，achieves the most．And this carries over to the classroom．
Social psychologist Carol Dweck，PHD，tested the effects of over-praise on 400fifth graders while she was at Columbia University．She found that kids praised for"trying hard"did better on tests and were more likely to take on difficult assignments than those praised for being"smart"．
"Praising attributes（品质） or abilities makes a false promise that success will come to you because you have that quality，and it devalues effort，so children are afraid to take on challenges，"says Dweck，now at Stanford University，"They figure they'd better quit while they're ahead．"

48．The underlined words"Praise-aholic kids"refer to kids who areD．
A．tired of being praised           B．worthy of being praised
C．very proud of being praised      D．extremely fond of being praised
49．The author quoted Dr．Dweck's words in the last paragraph in order to make the articleC．
A．better-known                 B．better-organized
C．more persuasive               D．more interesting
50．We can infer from the passage thatA．
A．praise for efforts should be more encouraged
B．praise for results works better than praise for efforts
C．praising a child's achievements benefits his or her success in life
D．praising a child's abilities encourages him or her to take on challenges．

分析 本文讲述了在教育孩子方面存在的一个问题就是过度的表扬孩子会导致很多孩子特别喜欢被表扬，而带来了很多不好的东西．建议我们要多表扬孩子的努力，而不仅仅是表扬孩子聪明．

解答 48．D．词义推断题．根据前一句But child experts are now learning that too much praise can lead to the opposite effect．可知本句的Praise-aholic kids就是指那些被过度的表扬，也特别喜欢被表扬的学生；故选D．
49．C．细节理解题．根据文章最后一段Praising attributes（品质） or abilities makes a false promise that success will come to you because you have that quality，and it devalues effort，so children are afraid to take on challenges，"says Dweck，now at Stanford University，"They figure they'd better quit while they're ahead．"引用了斯坦福大学的Dweck教授的话正是为了证明这项研究成果的准确性．增强说服力；故选C．
50．A．推理判断题．根据文章倒数第二段最后3行．She found that kids praised for"trying hard"did better on tests and were more likely to take on difficult assignments than those praised for being"smart"．可知作者认为鼓励孩子更加努力要比鼓励他聪明更有说服力；故选A．

点评 考察学生的细节理解和推理判断能力，做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句，和题干进行比较，再做出正确的选择．在做推理判断题不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实，要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断．

2．Seeing so many strangers helping her daughter，the old woman felt very_______ and didn't know what to say．（　　）
A．stubbornB．gratefulC．fancyD．confident
11．I believe that people should stop texting while driving because it not only endangers themselves but others around them．Family members，friends and strangers can be hurt by a simple mistake； their lives can be overturned （倾覆） completely．
Before I participated in the Thumb Wars campaign，I used to put sticky （粘的） notes inside my car to advise any person that was within it not to text while driving．I posted a quote on my social pages that said，"Drive now text later．"The message especially caught my dad's attention．Since he is on the road about three out of the seven days of the week，we are all worried about his safety．He decided to never use his phone while driving．When it comes to informing other people about the dangers of texting while driving，I usually bring up conversations about driving which then lead me to lecture them on why they shouldn't text while driving．Thumb Wars has given me a new way and opportunity to prevent people from texting while driving．
The era we live in today is all about technology，and there is always the urge to text．Thumb Wars is an inspirational campaign that fights against that．What I was trying to achieve was to not only change my life，but also try to influence the lives of others for the better．I believe that I can make people realize the consequences of texting while driving．They all know that it is not worth it and could change someone's life instantly．I believe that if there were more campaigns like Thumb Wars there would be fewer accidents because more people would be aware of the effects of texting while driving．
All a person needs is inspiration and efforts to avoid texting while driving．Thumb Wars is a good channel，which makes it the ideal campaign to help with others and make a difference in this world．
