问题    Sport is not only physically challenging, but it can also be mentally challenging. Criticism from coaches, parents, and other teammates, as well as pressure to win can create an excessive amount of anxiety or stress for young athletes. Stress can be physical, emotional, or psychological, and research has indicated that it can lead to burnout. Burnout has been described as dropping or quitting of an activity that was at one time enjoyable.
   The early years of development are critical years for learning about oneself. The sport setting is one where valuable experiences can take place. Young athletes can, for example, learn how to cooperate with others, make friends, and gain other social skills that will be used throughout their lives. Coaches and parents should be aware, at all times, that their feedback to youngsters can greatly affect their children. Youngsters may take their parents’ and coaches’ criticisms to heart and find flaws (缺陷) in themselves.
   Coaches and parents should also be careful that youth sport participation does not become work for children. The outcome of the game should not be more important than the process of learning the sport and other life lessons. In today’ s youth sport setting, young athletes may be worrying more about who will win instead of enjoying themselves and the sport. Following a game, many parents and coaches focus on the outcome and find fault with youngsters’ performances. Positive reinforcement should be provided regardless of the outcome. Research indicates that positive reinforcement motivates and has a greater influence on learning than criticism. Again, criticism can create high levels of stress, which can lead to burnout.
According to the passage parents and coaches should ______ .
选项 A、help children to win every game
B、pay more attention to letting children enjoy sports
C、enable children to understand the positive aspect of sports
D、train children to cope with stress
答案B
解析 本题考查推断测试题。依据为第三段第2行“The outcome of the game should not be more important than the process of learning the sport and other life lesson, ...instead of enjoying themselves and the sport.”A项的内容正是文章作者提醒教练父母应该避免的。至于C项中的“understand the positive aspect of sports”，作者认为正是许多家长教练自身应该明白的。而D项跟文章的内容无关。
