4 Task 1 Read the following article and choose the most suitable word (A, B, C or D) for each gap (1-8) in the text. Write your answers in the boxes. There is an example (0) at the beginning. PRAISING EFFORT WORKS BETTER THAN PRAISING ACHIEVEMENT Praise motivates. Praise encourages. Praise 0. Sometimes. Praising an employee can actually have the opposite effect. The difference 1 in whether we assume that skill is based on ability or on hard work and effort. Are people born with certain talents, or can talent be developed? According to research people 2 one of two mental approaches to talent: Fixed mindset: The belief that intelligence, ability, and skill are inborn and relatively fixed. We "have" what we were born with. People with a fixed mindset typically say things like "I'm just not that smart" or "Math is not my thing." Growth mindset: The 3 that intelligence, ability, and skill can be developed through effort- -we are what we work to become. People with a growth mindset would say things like "That's OK. I'll give it another 4! When you praise employees only for achievements you help create a fixed mindset environment. In time, employees see every mistake as a failure. They see a lack of immediate results as a failure. In time, they can 5 motivation and even stop trying. After all, why try when trying won't matter? Fortunately there's another way: make sure you focus on praising effort and application, too: "You must have worked really hard." The difference? You praise results that are based on effort and not on an 6 of talent or skill. By praising effort, you help create an environment where employees feel anything is possible. To 7 employee performance, build a work environment with a growth mindset. As a result your employees will also be more 8 to take more risks. When failure is seen as a step on the road to eventual achievement, risks are no longer something to avoid. Risk, and occasional failure, will simply be an expected step along the way towards success. Adapted from 3 / 9

You can be successful in your job and career but you can equally be successful in your marriage, at sports or a hobby. Whatever success you are after there is one thing all successful people 9 in common: Their drive and hunger for success makes them never give up. Some of the 10 successful people in business, entertainment and sport have failed. Many have failed numerous times but they have never given up. Successful people are able to pick themselves up, dust themselves 11 and carry on trying. If you 12 to succeed you should expect failure along the way. I believe that failure can spur you on and 13 you try even harder. You could argue that every experience of failure increases the hunger for success. The truly successful won't 14 beaten; they take responsibility 15 failure, learn from it and start all over from a stronger position. History is littered with examples: Henry Ford, Bill Gates, J.K. Rowling, Steve Jobs. The one thing successful people never 16 is: Give up! I hope that this is inspiration and motivation for everyone who aspires to be successful in whatever way they chose. Adapted from: Write your answers here. 0 comes pont 5 / 9
