5、go with an unusual grading system.If students dont pass a test, they get a different kind of grade “Not Yet” instead of “Failed”. In her TED presentation The Power of Believing You Can Improve, Carol Dweck, a psychologist(心理学家),explains the power of “Not Yet”: If you get a failing grade, you think y

6、oure nothing.But if you get the grade“Not Yet”, you understand that youre on the way to the future.In one study led by Dweck, she wanted to see how children dealt with challenges and difficulties.She gave 10-year-old children problems that were a bit too hard for them.“Some of them behaved in a surp

7、risingly positive way,” explained Dweck.“They said things like I love a 4challenge. or I think Ive learned something from this.”.These children had a“growth mindset”.They understood that their abilities could be developed.They didnt run from error(失误); they learned from it.But other children felt it

8、 was terrible to make an error.They felt their intelligence(才智)had been used up.These children had a “fixed mindset”.They didnt believe they could do anything to improve the situation.In the follow-up studies, Dweck learned these children were more likely to cheat.They looked for someone who did wor

9、se than they did so they could feel better about themselves.The children with a fixed mindset were operating from the “Now”, however, the children with a growth mindset were operating from the “Not Yet”.We all have things we want to improve.The problem, however, is few of us believe we can.We believ

10、e were not smart, or we dont have enough time.We believe we cant persist(坚持) in the face of difficulties or learn from criticism(批评).Its a result of a fixed mindset.But the wonderful reality is we can move from a fixed mindset to a growth mindset once we know how.First, believe you can change, now.N

11、ot tomorrow, next week, next month, or next year, but now.Next, for every negative(负面的)thought, write down a positive answer.So when your self-talk says,“I tried running before and gave up after a week.”, you can reply,“Thats because I didnt have a carefully designed plan.Now I have one and Im going

12、 to stick to it.”Developing a growth mindset takes time and effort, but over time, with enough practice, youll operate less from the “Now” and more from the “Not Yet”.13.Why does the school in Chicago use “Not Yet” instead of “Failed” to grade students?A.To keep students from losing confidence.B.To

16、he first four letters are typically considered passing grades.An F in this system simply stands for “fail”.The word“fail” happens to start with the letter F, which seems to leave out the letter E.The fact of the matter is that any letter can mean“not-passing” or “fail”.Some schools have U grade for

17、unsatisfactory”, or I grade for “incomplete”.Even with all this said, we should also point out that E grade actually has been used pretty commonly throughout the history of letter grades in the US.The first college in the US to use a letter grading system like the ones we use today is Mount Holyoke

18、 College.In 1897, they began to use the following grading scale:A:95100%(excellent) B:8594%(good) 6C:7684%(fair) D:75%(barely passed) E:below 75%(failed)We can see the inclusion of E instead of F.Gradually, the letter grading system became more popular throughout the US.However, many schools decided

19、 to drop the E grade and go straight to F.There is no evidence(证据) to really support this, but one possible explanation is that teachers were worried that some students and parents might mistake E for“excellent”.Why do we have letter grades? Well, part of the reason is that they made grading simpler

20、 during a time of great change for schools.As the 20th century began, growing cities and an increase in immigration led to larger school classrooms.Most teachers at that time thought this new letter grading system was an easy, fair and clear way to grade students.Today, more and more people argue th

21、at letter grades dont fully reflect(反映) student learning.However, as teachers try to improve grading methods, many parents continue to favor the letter grades they got as kids.They are familiar(熟悉的) and easy for parents to understand.So while they might not be perfect, the letter grades probably are
