He is  42  likely to fail, and the failure will  43  his belief in his incompetence(无能).

Alfred Adler, a famous doctor, had  44  like this. When he was a small boy, he had a poor  45  in maths. His teacher told his  46  he had no ability in maths in order that they would not  47  too much of him. In this way, they too  48  the idea. He accepted  49  mistaken thinking of his ability, felt that it was useless to  50 , and was very poor at maths,  51  as they expected.

One day he worked out a problem which  52  of the other students had been able to solve.

Adler succeeded in solving the problem. This gave him confidence. He now  53  with interest, determination and purpose, and he soon became especially good at  54 . He not only proved that he could learn maths well, but luckily he learned early in his life from his own experience that if a person goes at a job with determination and purpose, he may  55  himself as well as others by his ability. 36—40 ABBCA   41—45 BDBAC  46—50 DBADC  51—55 CABDA

1.A 名词辨析。A信念B方法C事实D条件；也许他会有这样的信念，也就是他自己没有能力。

2.B 固定词组，make full use of充分利用；因为他不知道如何充分利用自己的能力，所以认为自己愚蠢。

14.D 语法分析。这里的the表示特指上文提及的错误的看法—他的数学很差。

15.C 动词辨析。A设法B成功C尝试，努力D行动；他中也认为努力没有用，自己的数学真得很差。

16.C 副词辨析。A仅仅B几乎C恰好D那时；这一切恰如老师和父母所认为的那样。

17.C 句意分析。他做出了一道很多别的同学都无法做出的数学题。这让他信心大增。
