34、headstrong toddler starting to talk. No matter how many times the little ones stumble in their initial efforts, most keep on trying, determined to master their amazing new skill. It is only several years later, around the start of middle or junior high school, many psychologists and teachers agree,
35、that a good number of kids seem to lose their natural drive to succeed and end up joining the ranks of underachievers. For the parents of such kids, whose own ambition is often inseparately tied to their childrens success, it can be a bewildering, painful experience. So it is no wonder some parents
36、find themselves hoping that ambition can be taught like any other subject at school.Its not quite that simple. “Kids can be given the opportunities, but they cant be forced,“ says Jaequelynne Eccles, a psychology professor at the University of Michigan who led a study examining what motivated first-
37、and-seventh-graders in three school districts. Even so, a growing number of educators and psychologists do believe it is possible to unearth ambition in students who dont seem to have much. They say that by instilling confidence, encouraging some risk taking, being accepting of failure and expanding
38、 the areas in which children may be successful, both parents and teachers can reignite that innate desire to achieve.Dubbed Brainology, the unorthodox approach uses basic neuroscience to teach kids how the brain works and how it can continue to develop throughout life. The message is that everything
39、 is within the kids control, that their intelligence is malleable.Some experts say our education system, with its strong emphasis on testing and rigid separation of students into different levels of ability, also bears blame for the disappearance of drive in some kids. Some educators say its importa
40、nt to expose kids to a world beyond homework and tests, through volunteer work, sports, hobbies and other extracurricular activities. “The crux of the issue is that many students experience education as irrelevant to their life goals and ambitions,“ says Michael Nakkula, a Harvard education professo
41、r who runs a Boston-area mentoring program called Project IF (Inventing the Future), which works to get low-income underachievers in touch with their aspirations. The key to getting kids to aim higher at school is to tell them the notion that classwork is irrelevant is not true, to show them how doi
42、ng well at school can actually help them fulfill their dreams beyond it. Like any ambitious toddler, they need to understand that they have to learn to walk before they can run.(分数:10.00)(1).The word “bewildering“ underlined in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to _.(分数:1.00)A.puzzlingB.unbelievable

48、 first and most important agents of socialization are the people who care for infants. In the earliest months, messages from nurturers constitute the childs basic understanding of the world around it. This is the infants first introduction to the language that shapes perception and elicits emotion.A
49、nother powerful source of information and socialization is the friendship of peers. Peers are equals that one can deal with on the same level as oneself, whereas parents are superiors. The heavy emotional overlay of family relationships makes some kinds of learning difficult.Much formal socialization is placed in the hands of professionals. Teachers from kindergarten on are specifically designated agents of socialization. Ideally,
