Passage One
What should you think about when you try to find your career? You are probably better at some school subjects than others. These may show strengths that you can use in your work. A boy who is good at mathematics can use that in engineering career. A girl who spells well and likes English may be good at office work. So it is important to know the subjects you do well in at school. On the other hand, you may not have any specially strong or weak subjects but your records show a general satisfactory standard. Although not all subjects can be used directly in a job, they may have indirect value.A knowledge of history is not required for most jobs but if history is one of your good subjects you will have learned to remember facts and details.This is an ability that can be useful in many jobs.
Your school may have taught you skills, such as typing or technical drawing, which you can use in your work. You may be good at mental work or cookery and look for a job where you can improve these skills.
If you have had a part - time job on Saturday or in the summer, think what you gained from it. If nothing else, you may have learned how to get to work on time, to follow instructions and to get on with older workers. You may have learned to give correct change in a shop, for example. Just as important, you may become interested in a particular industry or career you see from the inside in a part-time job.
Facing your weak points is also part of knowing yourself. You may be all thumbs when you handle tools; perhaps you are a poor speller or cannot add up a column of figures. It is bitter to face any weaknesses than to pretend they do not exist. Your school record, for instance, may not be too good, yet it is an important part of your background. You should not feel sorry about it but instead recognize that you will have a chance of a fresh start at work.

Passage Two
Research indicates that parents who reward self-control and independence tend to have children with high achievement motivation. Such parents set high standards for their children but allow them to work at their own level and to make their own mistakes. By contrast, parents of low-need achievers typically set impossibly high goals for their children and make extreme demands. In addition, parents of high-need achievers encourage good performance but do not berate their children when they fail. If a child comes home from school with four A’s and one B on a report card, the parents focus on the A’s；parents of a potential low-need achiever tend to ask,“Why the B?” Parents of high-need achievers respond to average grades with warmth and suggestions for reasonable goals and ways to reach them. Parents of low-need achievers might say,“You're dumb and lazy and you'll never amount to anything”, and punish the child. When a child is having trouble with a math problem, the parent of a potentially high-need achiever will suggest the general procedure and let the child work out the particular solution；a low-need achiever's parent will solve the problem and then hand the child the answer.
That needs for affiliation and achievements exist within all of us, to varying degrees, is undeniable. And although biological bases for at least the affiliation need have been proposed, a great deal more is known about the psychological bases of these needs and how they come about.
Closely related to motivation are emotions, which can activate and direct behavior in much the same way as physiological, social, and psychological motivations do.

C.praise him for the good marks and reward him
D.criticize him for the lower marks and punish him
