While I was growing up, I often heard my teachers say, “Oh, Tina is gifted in
algebra.” While watching the Olympics, my parents would say, “These gymnasts are born
with such ability.” Statements like these made me believe people were born with certain
talents and if they didn't have a particular one at birth, then they never would. Therefore, I
rarely focused on algebra. Nobody told me that if you keep trying and trying, one day a
difficult task will seem easy.
Actually, I learnt this from my young daughter, Samaya. One day, I was finishing some
paperwork and I said, “Oh no, how could I have made that mistake!” Samaya instantly said,
“Mum, don't worry. Mistakes make your brain grow bigger.”
Actually, we all need to be reminded that mistakes or failures are just fine and that they
are a huge part of growth and success. However, the regular belief is the opposite. We must
correct this with our children. We must encourage them to make mistakes because that means
they are trying out new ideas.
Billionaire Sara Blakely, founder of the shapewear business Spanx, has seen many
failures. She made a living by selling fax machines for seven years. Knocking on many doors
and making a lot of mistakes was a journey she calls educational. Sara Blakely owes her risk-
taking skills to the weekend talk she had with her father.
As a child, her father would ask her the same question every weekend. "What did you
fail at this week, Sara?" He did not care how high her scores were. He wanted to know what
she had tried but failed at. When she told him about her failures and mistakes, he would give
her a high five. He was reprogramming her mind to believe that mistakes and failures are
fine.
So go ahead and ask yourself and your children, “What did we fail at this week?”
4What discouraged the author from efforts in algebra?
AShe wasn't interested in it. BShe thought she was not gifted.
CShe thought it was useless. DShe was not allowed to learn it.
5What does the underlined word “this” in paragraph 3 refer to?
AKeep trying is necessary. BFailure is a path to success.
CMistakes are not acceptable. DEncouragement is significant.
6Why did Sara's father keep asking her the same question?
ATo rebuild her mindset. BTo keep her from failures.
CTo know what she hadn't tried. DTo prevent her getting high scores.
7What would be the best title for the text?
AA Secret to Success BA Method of Education
CThe Magic of Mistakes DThe Power of a Fixed Mindset
A research project called Mineral has created robots that move around in farm fields,
aiming to use computers to help farmers grow more food in ways that are healthy for the
environment.
In the past, when farmers have tried to quickly increase the amount they produce,
