Each of us has abilities, whether physical, mental or social. What most of us don’t realize is that teaching these skills to children can help transform their lives. That’s why coaching can have such an enormous impact. For American kids, learning not only a skill but also how to work together is the perfect foundation for their future success.
Maybe you don’t like athletics or haven’t pursued them since grade school, but don’t give up on coaching just yet. Neither coaching nor teamwork is the exclusive province of sports. The stunning resurgence in the popularity of spelling bees demonstrates that competition, dedication, and big goals can be part of all children’s lives. In fact, there are all kinds of coaching experiences available that have nothing to do with muscles and games. From debating to building robots to making music, team-oriented programs for kids are exploding, and they all need people like us to help.
Think about your skills. Are you good at chess? Tennis? Maybe you give a speech like Daniel Webster. Then find out what programs are at your local schools, library, or community center that align with your specialty. And if there isn’t a program, take the next step. For children in areas in which funds are scarce, there aren’t many activities to choose from at schools or community centers. Stand up for those kids and ask yourself what you can do to create a new "team" opportunity.
Remember also that children who are new to a craft or sport don’t need a great master, just some guidance. In other words, you don’t have to be Tiger Woods to teach golf or Annie Leibowitz to teach photography. You just have to be willing to share yourself. Show a child how to play Scrabble, solve crossword puzzles, debate, care for bonsai(盆景), build Lego sculptures, work with papier-mche(纸塑), or figure out Rubik’s Cube. There’s a tournament out there for just about every skill; why not give a child the thrill of being recognized for a new talent? And yes, coaching baseball, football, basketball, soccer, or any other traditional sport is always an amazing way to give.
We can’t emphasize it enough: Our society’s obsession with popular culture and video games is often in direct conflict with the values of hard work and collaboration, and ongoing improvement that we so want our children to have. Absent a counterbalance(平衡物), these cultural forces teach kids to become passive spectators in life. Help children learn that they can achieve anything they set their minds on, and not watch life go by from the lonely isolation of a sofa.
What does the author think about coaching?
选项
A、People must possess athletics qualifications.
B、Sports are the best way to develop it.
C、It’s not suitable for grade school.
D、It means more experiences besides sports.
答案
D
解析
推理题。根据题干关键词coaching定位到第二段。该段第二句提及训练或团队合作都并非体育的独有范畴,同时第四句提到,事实上,有很多可以进行的训练活动与肌肉和比赛无关。由此可推知,作者认为“训练”不仅局限于体育的范畴,[D]与之相符,故为答案。[A]中must含义过于绝对化,“必须具备体育运动资格”与原文不符,故排除;原文并未提及运动是最佳的“训练”途径,故排除[B];该段首句虽提及小学,但是并未提及“训练”不适合小学,故排除[C]。
