四、阅读理解
A
For a long time people have believed that high self-esteem is the key to success. However, new research shows that focusing just on building self-esteem may not be helpful. In some cases,
having high self-esteem can bring bad results if it makes you less likeable or more upset when you fail at something.
“Forget about self-esteem,” says one of the psychologists involved in the new research. “It’s not the most important thing.”
This idea may sound a bit strange to you because studies also show that people with high self-esteem are less likely to be anxious, shy, or lonely than those with low self-esteem. In short, to feel good does you good.
But, after reviewing about 18,000 studies on self-esteem, Roy Baumeister, a psychologist at Florida State University, has found that building up your self-esteem will not necessarily make you a better person. He believes that violent and evil people often have the highest self-esteem of all. He also said, “There’s no evidence that kids with high self-esteem do better in school.”
All types of people have problems. “People with high self-esteem can have big egos(自我) that can make them less likeable to their peers,” said Kathleen Vohs, a psychology professor at Columbia University. “People with high self-esteem tend to (趋向于) think more of themselves,” Vohs says. People with low self-esteem are more likely to rely on their friends when they need help.
Researchers say it is best to listen to and support other people. Find positive ways to contribute to society. If you fail at something, try to learn from the experience. The best therapy(药方), as they suggest, is to recognize your faults, accept yourself, understand your weaknesses and then do something about them.
51. What’s the author’s attitude towards high self-esteem? A. Objective.
B. Subjective.
C. Neutral.
D. Indifferent.
52. What’s the passage mainly about? A. High self-esteem is the key to success.
B. New research shows that high self-esteem may not be helpful. C. New research shows that high self-esteem can only bring bad results. D. People with high self-esteem are less likeable.
53. What does the underlined part “a better person” probably mean? A. A person who is friendly and kind.
