Mindsets directly influence the ways you handle situations. Read the magazine article beloxv and answer the following questions.7. What does the underlined word "trick“ in the last paragraph mean?“Trick" means a good method or a way of doing something that works well.2. Summarize the differences between a fixed mindset and a growth mindset.With a fixed mindset, people believe that their intelligence is fixed and that talent is more important than effort. Alternatively, people with a growth mindset think that their intelligence can grow with time and experience. People with a fixed mindset are afraid of challenges and tend to give up on difficult problems, but people who have a growth mindset usually right in, learn from mistakes and work hard to solve difficult problems.B2: Write an article about your own mindset. You can refer to the information in Bl and then make a study plan accordingly.Be prepared to fail and learn from itAfter reading the article, I understand that my way of thinking, which is more like a fixed mindset, is not always very helpful. A fixed mindset means believing that your intelligence is permanent and does not change no matter how hard you study. Thinking of my intelligence as fixed makes me really scared of making mistakes and my biggest problem is that I expect everything I do to be perfect. This fear of failure prevents me from trying new things, and I realize that I really need to change this. This is why 1 decided to make a study plan with three main goals.Stop being afraid of making mistakesI am worried about making mistakes, so I often feel shy about speaking and asking questions in class. However, mistakes are an important part of learning, and if we do not make mistakes, we will not learn. To solve this problem, I have set myself the goal of asking at least three questions in class every week.Find challengesTo some extent, people who are afraid of making mistakes also fear challenges. If we play it safe all the time and only do things that we are confident about, we will not acquire any new skills. Now that I have decided to try doing something new and interesting every week, I have made a list of things that I consider challenging so as to improve myself. For example, I find English writing difficult, so I have decided to start keeping a diary in English to record my daily life.Encourage others to have a good mindsetLastly, we need to support our friends and classmates. I have set myself another new goal: I should always encourage the people around me to embrace challenges and try new things. It is wrong to tease others when they make mistakes; instead, we should all work together to create a safe and friendly study environment so that everyone can develop their skills and acquire new knowledge.教学反思
