题目解答
答案
B. We should stay persistent even in face of failures.
解析
考查要点：本题考查对Angela Duckworth《Grit》一书核心观点的理解，重点在于识别作者关于成功的关键要素——毅力（grit）的定义。
解题思路：
- 明确主题：《Grit》的核心是“毅力”，即热情与坚持的结合。
- 排除干扰项：需区分“坚持”与“完美主义”“练习”“热情”的差异，避免混淆相关但非核心的概念。
- 锁定关键：书中强调面对失败时的持续努力是成功的核心，而非单一因素（如练习或热情）。
选项分析
选项A
“We should perfect ourselves to ensure success.”
- 错误原因：书中反对“完美主义”，认为过度追求完美会阻碍成长。Duckworth强调接受不完美，通过坚持不断改进才是关键。
选项B
“We should stay persistent even in face of failures.”
- 正确原因：这是“毅力”的核心定义。书中通过大量研究证明，长期坚持目标、从失败中恢复并继续努力是成功的核心要素。
选项C
“We can never master a skill without constant practice.”
- 部分正确但不全面：练习是必要条件，但书中指出练习需与目标和热情结合，单纯练习并非最终答案。
选项D
“We can never expect to reach our goals without passion.”
- 部分正确但不全面：热情是毅力的组成部分，但书中强调热情需与坚持并存，仅有热情不足以确保成功。
