    Have you ever heard the old saying, “Never judge a book by its cover.”? This is a good rule to follow when trying to judge the intelligence of others. Some people have minds that shine only in certain situations. A young man with an unusual talent in writing may find himself speechless before a pretty girl when he speaks. He may not be able to find the right words. But don’t make the mistake of thinking him stupid. With a pen and paper, he can express himself better than anybody else.

    Other people may fool you into overestimating(过高估计) their intelligence by putting up a good front. A student who listens attentively and takes notes in class is bound to (一定会) make a favorable impression on his teachers. But when it comes to exams, he may score near the bottom of the class.

    In a word, you can’t judge someone by appearance. The only way to determine a person’s intelligence is to get to know him. Then you can see how he reacts to different situations. The more situations you see, the better your judgment is likely to be. So take your time. Don’t judge a book by its cover.

    1.The passage suggests that ______.

    A. a speechless person always writes well

    B. a good writer may not be a good speaker

    C. a good writer is always a good speaker

    D. a good writer will find himself speechless

    2.According to this passage, a student who listens attentively and takes notes in class ______.

    A. is an intelligent student

    B. will not be a good student

    C. will score best in exams

    D. may not be an intelligent student

    3.The passage suggests that we should judge a person’s intelligence through ______.

    A. his teachers

    B. his behavior in the classroom

    C. his reactions to different situations

    D. his appearance

    4.The writer of this passage wants to tell us not to______.

    A. judge a book by its cover

    B. make the mistake of thinking a young man stupid

    C. overestimate a student’s intelligence

    Everyone has good days and bad days.

    Sometimes, you feel as if you’re on top of the world. But occasionally you feel horrible, and you lose things and you cannot focus on your schoolwork.

    For more than 20 years, scientists have suggested that high self-esteem (自尊) is the key to success. Now, 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 Jennifer Crocker, a psychologist (心理学家) at the University of Michigan, US. “It’s not the important thing.”

    Feeling good

    Crocker’s advice may sound a bit strange because it is good to feel good about yourself.

    Studies show that people with high self-esteem are less likely to be depressed, anxious, shy, or lonely than those with low self-esteem.

    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 wicked (邪恶的) 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.”

    Problems

    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(同龄人), said Kathleen Vohs, a psychology professor at Columbia University.

    People with high self-esteem tend to think more of themselves, Vohs says. People with low self-esteem are more likely to rely on their friends when they need help.

    What to do

    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) is to recognize your faults,” Vohs says. “It’s OK to say, ‘I’m not so good at that,’ and then move on.”

    1.The new research comes to the conclusion that high self-esteem ________.

    A. is not important at all

    B. may not be the key to success

    C. has taken on a different meaning

    D. does not help you do better at school

    2.One of the conclusions of the new research is that ________.

    A. people with high esteem tend to be proud

    B. people with high esteem usually do not seek other’s help

    C. feeling good about oneself doesn’t mean you lead a happier life

    D. people with low esteem are often more popular

    3.The underlined part “a better person” in the passage probably means a person who is ______.

    A. helpful and supportive B. gentle and modest

    C. likable and successful D. friendly and kind

    4.From the text, we can infer the best therapy mentioned in the last paragraph is mainly for people ________.

    A. of all kinds

    B. with low self-esteem

    C. with high self-estee

    D. who are focusing on building self-esteem
