alth professionals. In West Virginia, 43% of the nearly 6,000 children examined for heart disease risk were considered overweighted。 more than 25% were too fat. ―We are in a crisis of childhood obesity not only in West Virginia but in America,‖ said a researcher. Researchers are now looking at the potential for improving effects by using the game. A teacher in West Virginia has been using the video games in her classes since last fall. She reported that the game does improve heart health as well as eyehand coordination (协调能力 ), and her students take the video game as a great alternative to jumping rope or ball games. The US Education Department is putting the game in 20 schools to control childhood obesity. Well, are you going to try such to dance away your extra weight? 29.

Cut the Cost of Obesity Claims D Make Up Your Mind to Succeed Kindhearted parents have unknowingly left their children defenseless against failure. The generation born between 1980 and 2020 grew up playing sports where scores and performance were played down because ―everyone’s a winner.‖ And their report cards sounded more positive than ever before. As a result, Stanford University professor Carol Dweck, PhD, calls them ―the overpraised generation.‖ Dweck has been studying how people deal with failure for 40 years. Her research has led her to find out two clearly different mindsets that have a great effect on how we react to it. Here’s how they work: A fixed mindset is grounded in the belief that talent is geic – you’re a born artist, point guard, or numbers person. The fixed mindset believes it’s sure to succeed without much effort and regards failure as personal shame. When things get difficult, it’s quick to blame, lie, and even stay away from future difficulties. On the other hand, a growth mindset believes that no talent is entirely heavensent and that effort and learning make everything possible. Because the ego (自尊 ) isn’t on the line as much, the growth mindset sees failure as a chance rather than shame. When faced with a difficulty, it’s quick to rethink, change and try again. In fact, it enjoys this experience. We are all born with growth mindsets. (Otherwise, we wouldn’t be able to live in the world.) But parents, teachers, and instructors often push us into fixed mindsets by encouraging certain actions and misdirecting praise. Dweck’s book, Mindset: The New Psychology of Success, and online instructional program explain this in depth. But she says there are many little things you can start doing today to make sure that your children, grandchildren and even you are never defeated by failure. 32. What does the author think about the present generation? A. They don’t do well at school. B. They are often misunderstood. C. They are eager to win in sports. D. They are given too much praise. 33. A fixed mindset person is probably one who __________ . A. doesn’t want to work hard B. cares a lot about personal safety C. cannot share his ideas with others D. can succeed with the help of teachers 34. What does the growth mindset believe? A. Admitting failure is shameful. B. Talent es with one’s birth. C. Scores should be highly valued. D. Getting over difficulties is enjoyable. 35. What should parents do for their children based on Dweck’s study? A. Encourage them to learn from failures. B. Prevent them from making mistakes. C. Guide them in doing little things. D. Help them grow with praise. 第二节（共 5小题；每小题 2分，满分 10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。 （如果所用的答题卡没有 E、 F、 G选项，则选 E涂 A、 B，选 F涂 A、 C，选 G涂 A、 D。 ） People who are confident really seem to be naturally outstanding and just seem to do everything with more styles than others. 36 It is a habit that everyone can develop in life.
