Pregunta 10 of 19
10. Pregunta
A The modern world moves so fast that it can seem difficult to succeed. As a result, many people are looking for a strategy or a system for doing well. Parents especially want to help their children grow up and be successful. This feeling is why many people were interested in grit when Angela Duckworth wrote her book of the same name. The idea that simply having determination and not giving up could lead to success is an attractive one. But is grit really so great?
B One problem with the idea is that not everyone agrees having grit is important. Some studies support the idea that grit leads to success. For example, children with grit who take part in spelling competitions are more likely to study harder and do better than children with less grit. But other studies suggest that people with a lot of grit are only slightly more likely to be successful than people without this characteristic.
C Duckworth says people with grit have a strong interest in, or passion for, one subject. They also have a feeling that this subject is important and will make a difference to the lives of other people. When they are combined, these two feelings are important for helping people stick to their work and achieve success. However, many children are unsure what they want to do until they are in their late teens, early twenties, or even older. And until they find their passion, they cannot use their grit to work hard and be successful.
D There are other questions surrounding the idea of grit. Are people born with a certain level of grit that cannot be changed? Or can people learn how to be more gritty and successful? Until scientists learn the answers to these questions, it is not clear whether teachers should try to teach their students how to have more grit. Even if teachers do decide to try, how should they teach it? Grit is not a subject like math or science with knowledge that can easily be explained. Perhaps helping students find ways to raise their motivation level would help, but nobody is sure.
E Still, despite these unsolved problems and unanswered questions, the idea of grit is an interesting one. People who want to be successful will keep trying to develop more grit. After psychologists have done more research and conducted more studies, perhaps we will know better how to help them do this.
