     A lot of people are their own enemies. They regard themselves as unlikely to succeed in college and

often feel that there have been no accomplishments (成就) in their lives. In my first year of college

especially, I saw people get themselves down too quickly. There were two students in my class who failed the first test and seemed to give up immediately. From that day on, they walked into the classroom carrying defeat on their shoulders the way other students carried textbooks under their arms. When they

disappeared for good(长久地), no one took much notice, for they had already disappeared in spirit after

that first test.

     I have really wanted to shake them by the shoulders and say: "You are not dead. Be proud and pleased that you have brought yourself here to college. Breathe. Hope. Act." Such people should not use

self-doubts as an excuse for not trying. They should pull themselves together and get to work. They should start taking notes in class and trying to learn. Above all, they should not give up without even trying.

1. The phrase "get themselves down" (Para. 1) probably means ______.

A. tell lies  

B. lose confidence    

C. avoid dangers    

D. waste time

2. When the two students dropped out (退学), no one took much notice because ______.

A. they had long lost heart in class performance

B. they were absent from class too often

C. they didn't get on well with other students

D. they were so much cut off from the rest of the class

3. According to the passage, the two students failed in their study because of their ______.

A. shyness    

B. proudness    

C. self-doubt    

D. laziness

4. The author thinks that the two students should ______.

A. give up their college education        

B. learn from other students

C. feel happy because they are in college      

D. try hard before giving up
