F. Learn the power of risk taking

How would you like to learn more without having to study more? Here’s how:

1._____________. Your performance, attention, and the ability to concentrate(集中) are damaged by shortness of sleep. Teenagers need nine to ten hours of sleep a night for best performance(表现).

2.______________. The brain(大脑) runs badly if it doesn’t get enough fuel(燃料). That means protein(蛋白质) and complex carbs (复合碳水化合物)-eggs and wheat bread for breakfast, say, rather than sugary cereal(含糖的麦片粥) and orange juice. The biggest mistake teens make is not to have breakfast or to go for sugar, which raises blood sugar levels.

3.______________. Body exercise really improves brain performance, perhaps because it increases blood flow, or perhaps because it makes stress and anxiety(焦虑) smaller. Twenty minutes of activity a day that raises your heart rate will do great good.

Learn now what you want to remember for the rest of your life. Teenage brains are much better at remembering things than the brains of young children or adults(成年人). Scientists aren’t sure why. Whatever the reason, the teenage years are the time to learn new languages and master(掌握) other lifelong skills.

4._____________. Adults are always worried about the downside(下降) of teenage risk(冒险) taking, and it’s true that teenagers are more likely than adults to get themselves in trouble by drinking and driving. But the fact that the parts of the brain that drive people to try new, risky, and exciting things appear to be more developed in teenagers can be a huge advantage. Pick certain challenges-difficult sports, a hard job, mastering a performance art, traveling overseas-and the teenage brain is able to deal with them. They have this power they’re given to go out and do it without fear.

5.______________. Because emotional(情感的) systems develop fast in teenager brains, teenagers learn things they’re interested in quickly and well. Their brains give them tools like attention on the project.

When I was about 12, I had an enemy, a girl who liked to point out (指出) my shortcomings. Week by week her list grew: I was very thin, I wasn’t a good student, I talked too much, I was too proud, and so on. I tried to hear all this as long as I could. At last, I became very angry. I ran to my father with tears in my eyes.

He listened to me quietly, then he asked. “Are the things she says true or not? Janet, didn’t you ever wonder what you’re really like? Well, you now have that girl’s opinion. Go and make a list of everything she said and mark the points that are true. Pay no attention to the other things she said.”

I did as he told me. To my great surprise, I discovered that about half the things were true. Some of them I couldn’t change (like being very thin), but a good number I could-and suddenly I wanted to change. For the first time I go to very clear picture of myself.

I brought the list back to Daddy. He refused to take it. “That’s just for you,” he said. “You know better than anyone else the truth about yourself. But you have to learn to listen, not just close your ears in anger and feeling hurt. When something said about you is true, you’ll find it will be of help to you. Our world is full of people who think they know your duty. Don’t shut your ears. Listen to them all, but hear the truth and do what you know is the right thing to do.”

Daddy’s advice has returned to me at many important moments. In my life, I’ve never had a better piece of advice.

1.What did the father do after he had heard his daughter’s complaint (抱怨)?

A. He refused to take the list and have a look at it.

B. He told her to pay attention only to the things that were true.

C. He told her not to pay any attention to what her ‘enemy’ had said.

D. He criticized (批评) her and told her to overcome her shortcomings.

2.What does “Week by week her list grew” mean?

A. Week by week, my shortcomings grew more serious.

B. I was having more and more shortcomings as time went on.

C. Week by week she discovered more shortcomings and pointed them out to me.

D. She kept on adding new shortcomings to the list so that it was growing longer and longer.

3.Why did her father listen to her quietly?

A. Because he wasn’t quite sure which girl was telling the truth.

B. Because he wanted to show his anger by keeping silent for a while.

C. Because he knew that his daughter was telling the truth.

D. Because he believed that what her daughter’s “enemy” said was mostly true.

4.Which do you think would be the best title for this passage?

A. My Father

B. The Best Advice I’ve Ever Had

B. My Childhood

D. Not an Enemy, but the Best Friend
