14、his childhood friends and lived a happier and healthier life. This is the finding of a 40-year study that followed the lives of 456 children in London.

Interviews were repeated at ages 25, 31 and 47
16、. Browns research group compared the childrens mental-health（心理健康）scores with their childhood-activity scores.

Their teachers were the very best, so lessons were expensive, more than they could really afford（支付得起）,
22、butwhen you love your art, nothing is too much. But soon the money began to run out, and they didnt have money to pay for their lessons. Then one day Delia came back home and told Joe that she had met a man in town whose daughter, Sally, wanted to learn the piano, and he was going to pay her $50 an
23、hour. “Delia, ”Joe said, “Ill be much happier if you keep up your lessons. ” Delia said it didnt matter. “When Ive had some money, Ill continue. ” But Joe also decided to stop his lessons, to draw pictures and sell them. A few days later, Joe came home and took $200 from his pocket happily. “I met a
24、 man from Vermont, ” he said, “who bought one of my pictures. And he wants to buy more!”_. They didt have to worry any more about money. Then, one day, Joe came home and saw that Delias hand was wrapped in a bandage. He asked her what had happened. “Oh, ” said Delia. “My student, Sally, asked me to
25、make some coffee for her. I dropped the coffee and burned my hand. Sally went straight to the medicine store and got this bandage for me. ”“Delia, what have you been doing the last two weeks?” Joe asked.

Even if I dont get the answer right, maybe Ill learn something in a try. Carol Dweck, the researcher of Stanford Unive
31、rsity, gave a group of children problems that were a little hard for them. One group said they loved trying something new or something difficult and understood that their abilities could be developed. She says they had a “growth mindset（成长心态）”, which would make them better at study. But another grou
32、p of children felt that they were unable to imagine improving. Some of these children might cheat in the future; others looked for someone who had done worse than them to make themselves feel better. Carol believes that there is a problem in education at the moment. For years, children have been pra
33、ised for their talent. They become pleased by getting high grades, but they are not necessarily interested in learning itself. “The better way,” she says, “is to praise them for their hard work or their good learning habits or their improvements. This way they will achieve more.”Researchers have bee
34、n testing these ideas. Students were taught that if they learned something new and difficult, their brains would form stronger connections, making them more clever. And they made faster progress in the end. In another study, a group of school children used growth mindset for a year. The results were
35、 really surprising. They came top in tests. These children had ever felt that working hard was a sign of stupidity（愚蠢）, but they came to see it as the key to learning.
