The youngster should be allowed to experience disappointment and then be helped to master it. 1.【答案】tell改为tells
【解析】本题考查语法规则。句子主语是“no one”,谓语应该使用第三人称单数形式，故应将“tell”改为“tells”。 2.【答案】so后加that
【解析】本句考查语义逻辑及固定搭配。若本句中“so”表示“所以”之意，句意就应为“只因没有人告诉我们怎样失败，因此失败成为经验的累积。”这显然与文意不符。应在“so”之后加“that”,使用“so that”表示目的，句意为“只因没有人告诉我们怎样失败，从而使失败成为经验的累积。” 3.【答案】failure改为fail
【解析】本题考查语法规则及词汇用法。句意为“每个人都有权利失败”。句中“失败”应用动词形式，而“failure”是名词，故应该改为“fail”。
4.【答案】in改为at
【解析】本题考查固定搭配。“努力学”或“努力做”应为“work hard at...”而非“work hard in...”。
5.【答案】out改为from
【解析】本题同样考查固定搭配。动词“shield”的用法与“prevent”相似，“shield sb from...”意为“让某人接触不到，让某人避开”。把“out”改为“from”之后句意通顺。
6.【答案】if改为though
【解析】本题考查词汇用法。“even if”与“even though”均可表示“尽管”，但“even if”用于假设的情况而“even though”用于现实。本句意为“有位母亲把孩子摆得乱七八糟的桌子说成完美。”此句描述的情况是实际发生的事情，作者以此为例说明家长的一些不正确的态度，因此不能使用表示假设的“even if”,应把“if”改为“though”。 7.【答案】are改为is
【解析】本句考查语法规则。需要注意的是本句的主语是“trouble”而非“failureprevention devices”,所以谓语动词应用单数形式。
8.【答案】with改为for
【解析】本题考查语义逻辑与固定搭配。练习前文可知，句意应为“家长对待孩子失败的不正确态度会使得孩子对于真实的世界没有准备”。应使用词组“prepare for”表示“为……作准备”。
9.【答案】impossible改为possible 【解析】本题考查语义逻辑。不难看出作者的观点是即便不能获胜，参与的过程也是有趣且有益的，故应把“impossible”改为“possible”。
10.【答案】does改为is
【解析】本题考查语法规则及语义理解。通过理解整句的意思可以发现，主语“child”与动词“invite”之间应为被动的关系，意为“一个没有被邀请参加生日宴的孩子会觉得难受”，因此应该把“does”改为“is”,用“is invited”构成被动。
