问题     Why are so many people so afraid of failure? Quite simply because no one tells us how to fail so that failure becomes an experience that will lead to growth. We forget that failure is part of the human condition and that every person has the right to fail.
    Most parents work hard at either preventing failure or protecting their children from the knowledge that they have failed. One way is to lower standards. A mother describes her child’ s hastily made table as "perfect" , even though it wobbles(摇晃) on uneven legs. Another way is to shift blame. If John fails science, his teacher is unfair or stupid.
    The trouble with failure prevention is that they leave a child unequipped for life in the real world. The young need to learn that no one can be best at everything, no one can win all the time— and that it is possible to enjoy a game even when you don’ t win. A child who’ s not invited to a birthday party, who doesn’ t make the honor roll or the baseball team, feels terrible, of course. But parents should not offer a quick consolation(安慰) prize or say "It doesn’ t matter" because it does. The young should be allowed to experience disappointment and be helped to master it.
    Failure is never pleasurable. It hurts adults and children alike. But it can make a positive contribution to your life once you learn to use it. Step one is to ask "Why did I fail?" Resist the natural impulse to blame someone else. Ask yourself what you did wrong and how you can improve. If someone else can help, don’t be shy about inquiring.
According to the writer, the right attitude towards failures is that______.
选项 A、parents should tell their children to think nothing of their failures
B、children should be encouraged to get through failures by themselves
C、parents should judge what their children have done as it is
D、children should always learn to enjoy a game that they won’t win
答案B
解析 事实细节题。由文章第三段最后一句话“The young should be allowed to experience disappointment and be helped to master it．”可知，孩子们应该自己克服失败。故选B。
