问题     Personality is to a large extent inherent—A type parents usually bring about A type (36)______. But the environment must also have a (37)______ effect, since if competition is important to the parents, it is likely to become a major factor in the lives of their, children.
    One place where children (38)______ up A characteristics is school, which is, by its very nature, a highly competitive institution. Too many schools (39)______ the ’win at all costs’ moral standard and (40)______ their success by sporting achievements. The current (41)______ for making children compete against their classmates or against the clock produces a two-layer system, in which competitive A types seem in some way better than their B type fellows. Being too keen to win can have dangerous consequences: remember that Pheidippides, the first marathon runner, (42)______ dead seconds after saying: ’Rejoice, we conquer!’
    By far the worst form of competition in schools is the (43)______ emphasis on examinations. It is a rare school that allows pupils to concentrate on those things they do well (44)____________.
    Obviously, it is neither practical nor desirable that all A youngsters change into B’s. (45)____________. It is top management.
    If the preoccupation of schools with academic work was lessened, more time might be spent teaching children surer values. (46)____________. It is surely a mistake to choose our doctors exclusively from A type stock. B’s are important and should be encouraged.
