Study Throws New Light on Teenagers
Smart girls suffer a “fear of failure” even when they beat boys at school, a new global study reveals.
The survey of 600,000 teenagers at the age of 15 shows that even the smartest girls are short of c 1 .
“Girls expressed greater fear of failure than boys, even when they outperformed boys in reading by a large margin(差额),” the report says. “This gender(性别) gap was considerably(非常) wider among top-performing students.”
The study has also found that girls are better than boys at u 2 other people's points of view, 3 (然而) boys are better at adapting(适应) to new situations, even when under pressure.
The report also reveals that only 10 percent of 15-year-olds can tell the d 4 between a fact and an opinion. In other words, most teenagers have difficulty detecting(发现) “fake news”.
According to the report, the smart phone has transformed the ways in which people read and exchange information. In the past, students could find c 5 and singular(显著的) answers to their questions in textbooks, and they could trust those answers to be t 6 . Today, they will find hundreds of thousands of answers to their questions online, and it is up to them to figure out what is true and what is false, what is right and what is 7 .
The study has also found that six percent of students globally are always feeling sad, and that one third are u 8 with their lives—a five-percent increase in just three years.
Teenagers worry most about their schoolwork, their r 9 with their parents, and the way they look.
The report calls on governments to promote equity(公平) between poor and rich students. While students from rich families will often find a path to 10 (成功) in life, those from disadvantaged families have generally only one single chance in life. And that chance is: “a great teacher and a great school,” it says.

六、阅读理解。
“What a lovely day!” said Anne, as she and Diana walked to school. The two girls always walked to school together. They walked through the trees and over the old bridge, talking all the time. The Avonlea School was a white building with old-fashioned desks.
Behind it was a small stream, where the children put their bottles of milk in the morning to keep cool until dinner hour. Anne liked her school very much, even though she was behind the other students in the lessons. She had a better imagination(想象力) than any of them. She also liked having other girls to play with.
In their class was a boy called Gilbert Blythe. He was tall with brown hair, bright eyes, and a big smile. He was always playing tricks on the girls and making them laugh.
