A Good Habit, a Successful Life

A habit is something that you do often or regularly almost without thinking, especially something that is hard to stop doing.

“Her grades are fine; I’m not worried about that, but she just doesn’t seem to love learning any more.” Alice’s mum said.

She’s absolutely right. I’d noticed the same thing about her daughter over the previous two or three years when I’d been Alice’s middle school English, Latin, and writing teacher, and I have an answer, right there on the tip of my tongue, for what has gone wrong. Yet I’m torn between my responsibility to help Alice, and the knowledge that what I have to say is a truth I’m not sure this mother is ready to hear.

The truth—for this parent and so many others—is this: Her child has sacrificed her natural curiosity and love of learning at the altar(圣壇) of achievement, and it’s our fault. Alice’s parents, her teachers, society at large—we are all supposed to be blamed in this crime against learning. From her first day of school, we pointed her toward that altar and trained her to measure her progress by means of points, scores, and awards. We taught Alice that her potential is tied to her intellect(智力) ,and that her intellect is more important than her character. We taught her to come home proudly bearing grades As, championship prizes, and college acceptances, and not on purpose, we taught her that we don’t really care how she obtains them. We taught her to protect her academic and extracurricular perfection at all costs and that it’s better to quit when things get challenging rather than risk losing that perfect record. Above all else, we taught her fear failure. That fear is what has destroyed her love of learning.

The news of Harper Lee’s second novel broke the internet. Go Set a Watchman would be published in July. Lee became a recluse (隱士)after the publication of her first book, To Kill a Mockingbird, in 1960. Although the author has been out of the public eye for more than 50 years, the wave that followed the announcement showed her novel’s beloved place in the American literary works.

In 1991, The Book of the Month Club and the library of Congress conducted a survey that made readers identify books that had made a difference in their lives. Lee’s book followed only The Bible. Alongside the works of Shakespeare and Twain, To Kill a Mockingbird remains one of the most widely taught books nationwide, reaching an estimated 70% of American public schools. What makes it such a perfect read for young people？

English class is a place where young Americans come to know themselves. In the folds of dusty books, students can make contact with humanity beyond the superficial(膚淺的) conversations of the school hallways. Literature promises relief, a place to figure out one’s problems and get to know oneself better.

To Kill a Mockingbird particularly distinguishes itself in this regard. It speaks in child’s voice without treating its readership as children. People have called it an ‘impossible’ achievement, a children’s book penned in the prose(散文) of a well-educated adult—it’s unlikely that a child like

Scout could exist in the real world. But that’s exactly what makes it such a charming read for young people. It alludes to (轉(zhuǎn)彎抹角地說(shuō)到)the consciousness of a well-educated adult going through difficult realities, but shows it through the light and playful voice of a curious little girl.

1.In which year might Go Set a Watchman come out?

A. 2015 B. 1960 C. 1910 D. 1991

2.Which book leaves the deepest impression on American readers?

A. Go Set a Watchman B. To Kill a Mockingbird

C. The Bible D. Shakespeare’s works

3.Which of the following statements is right about To Kill a Mockingbird?

A. Its author may be a playful child.

B. It’s a story about a well-educated adult.

C. Young people can see themselves from it.

D. It’s impossible for children like Scout to exist.

4.What is the best title for the text?

A. The Great Writer: Harper Lee B. The Great Young People Novel

C. Voices from Children D. Differences Harper Lee made
