7.You could feel sorry for Alberto Torres,who is blind.The last thing he remembers seeing was his daughter being born 13 years ago.Then the world went blank; he can only imagine what his only child looks like now,as a teenaged honor student.Bad luck is no stranger to this warm and thoughtful 37-year-old man.His mother died of cancer when he was 4,and his father,who was often ill,had to give him up to the care of the state when he was 11.He later worked for 19years in a workshop making household goods,deathly boring work.Earlier this month,Alberto Torres's wife,who had just been laid off from her job,had to have a breast removed due to cancer and now faces a year of radiation treatments.Things seemed always to go from almost incredibly bad to worse.Even Mr.Torres's good luck has a dark side:Five years ago,his lovely guide dog pulled him out of the path of a truck.Mr.Torres was not hurt.The dog was killed.
But Mr.Torres does not feel sorry for himself."These are just little bumps you have to go over in your life,"he said.At 5a.m.on a recent morning,we caught up with Mr.Torres at a subway stop in Brooklyn,New York,near where he lives in a third-floor apartment (with no elevator).He had been up since 3a.m.,feeding his new dog,making coffee,getting ready."When you're blind,it takes a little longer to do things,"he said.
Mr.Torres was beginning his two-hour trip to his job developing film in the X-ray department of the emergency room of the Bronx hospital.He would take the G train to Queens Plaza station to the R train,heading towards Manhattan.He would then ride the R train to 59th Street where he would walk upstairs to switch to the Number 6train.At one point along the journey,he might chat with a stranger.At another,someone would pat his dog,calling him by name.People offered assistance,even seats.At 125th Street,Mr.Torres would transfer to the Number 4train by crossing the platform.At 149th Street,he would go down to the Number 2.He would take that to East 180th Street where he nearly always has a long wait for his final train,to Pelham Parkway.Then he and his dog would walk 20minutes to the hospital.
It was a hard job to come by.Before he got the job,Mr.Torres was determined to escape the workshop run by an organization dedicated to help people who can't see.He wanted a job developing X-ray film,something that everyone must do in the dark.He had to handle the long trip,as well as the work."Our philosophy here is that blind people can do just about anything except drive buses,"it was the thinking about disabled people at the Bronx hospital."We find what a person can do rather than what he can't do,"said the hospital's director.
One day a while ago marked the first anniversary of Mr.Torres's hiring.He developed 150or so X-rays,his usual output,to celebrate.Mr.Torres works by himself in a small,dark room that smells of chemicals.He cannot wear gloves,because he needs to feel.It is hard work,related to emergency of lives.His immediate supervisor says he trusts him 100%.Mr.Torres makes $20,000a year.But his motivation goes beyond money."If I start feeling like a victim,that makes me bitter.And why be bitter?That makes you go into a hole and stay there."he said."I'm not doing anything out of the ordinary,"insisted Mr.Torres as he quickly completed the task.

Make Up Your Mind to Succeed

Kind-hearted parents have unknowingly left their children defenseless against failure. The generation born between 1980 and 2001 grew up playing sports where scores and performance were played down because “everyone’s winner.” And their report cards sounded more positive (正面的) 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 mind-sets that have a great effect on how we react to it. Here’s how they work:

A fixed mind-set is grounded in the belief that talent (才能) is genetic – you’re a born artist, point guard, or numbers person. The fixed mind-set 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 mind-set believes that no talent is entirely heaven-sent and that effort and learning make everything possible. Because the ego (自尊) isn’t on the line as much, the growth mind-set 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 mind-sets. (Otherwise, we wouldn’t be able to live in the world.) But parents, teachers, and instructors often push us into fixed mind-sets by encouraging certain actions and misdirecting praise. Dweck’s book, Mind-set: 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.

1.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.

2.A fixed mind-set 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

3.What does the growth mind-set believe?

A. Admitting failure is shameful.

B. Talent comes with one’s birth.

C. Scores should be highly valued.

D. Getting over difficulties is enjoyable.

4.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.
