英语翻译
Allen was a fourth-grade boy who hated exams.He did
quite well in his everyday work But when the teacher gave an exam,he always
failed(失败).He couldn't understand why he did so badly until one day when
he was talking about it to his mother."You're just like your dad and me," his
mother told him."We didn't do well with exams,either.I was afraid of them,
and your dad just couldn't work them out.He had the same problem as you have He
always did well until exam time." So that's it.Allen thought to himself:"Like
father,like son.It just runs in the family ."
The next time the teacher handed out(发)the weekly
exam.Allen tried to work a few problems,but he found he couldn't and then he
had to give up.He didn't do each problem carefully at all .
The next week the teacher introduced the class to a
new program called "Practice for Success." They learned that exams were like
sports where you get a chance to show what you know as you play the games.Allen
had never regarded(认为)exams as games in which you competed(竞争)with yourself or
others as you do in computer games,basketball,football,or other sports.He
learned how to have fun when competing with himself.All that year Allen
worked on learning how to do better on exams.Soon he found himself not only
doing well on exams,but also enjoying them.He wasn't afraid of exams any more.
His mother said joyfully,"I learned that not doing well on exams doesn't have to run in
the family."
艾伦上四年级,他每天学习也很努力,但是一到考试,就是考不及格.他不明白为什么会这样,直到有一天他把他的疑问告诉了妈妈.妈妈对艾伦说,“你跟你爸爸和我当年一样,我们每次考试也都考得不理想,我那时候害怕考试.你爸爸也考不好.他跟你有一样的问题,平时学习很好,一到考试就不行.”就这样,艾伦心里想,“有其父必有其子,这是家族遗传.
.下次老师再进行周考的时候,艾伦一开始好好地做题,但是发现做不出来,然后他只得放弃了.他每一题都做的马马虎虎的.
接下来的一周,老师跟全班介绍了一个新项目叫做”为成功而练习“
他们从中学会了考试就像运动一样,做运动时你得到的是一个展示你所学的东西的机会.
艾伦之前从未把考试看作和运动,考试时,你和你自己或者别人竞争,就像玩电脑游戏、打篮球、踢足球等一样
他学会了既超越自己又学会了如何从中获得乐趣.
在那一整年中,艾伦都为在考试中做得更好而努力
很快他发现自己不但考试考得好了,而且变得很享受考试
他再也不害怕考试了
他妈妈高兴地说”我也明白了,考试考得不好不一定会代代遗传的.
