Confident teenagers have something in common. They are more likely to be appreciative and enthusiastic. When informed that the outcome of a contest isn't delightful, confident teenagers will not get embarrassed or upset . They see the failure worthwhile and learn from it. Then they will try harder with delight to guarantee success next time. Nevertheless, teenagers who lack confidence rarely expect to succeed or persevere with things they try. Therefore, it is a blessing to be confident for teenagers.
自信的青少年有一些共同点。他们更懂得欣赏和热情。当得知比赛结果不尽如人意时，自信的青少年不会感到尴尬或沮丧。他们认为失败是值得的，并从中汲取教训。然后，他们会更加努力，满怀喜悦地保证下次成功。然而，缺乏自信的青少年很少会期待成功，也很少会坚持尝试。因此，自信是青少年的福气。

[选自：选修教材　外研版·选修二(新教材)　UNIT 1 P5]
Today's architects and engineers are developing innovative① ways to make underground spaces functional② and comfortable. The question remains whether③ they can provide scalable④， sustainable⑤ and realistic options for the future. Besides practical considerations, there exists the challenge of building a positive
perception⑥ of “going underground”. Yet, the obvious challenges of constructing habitable underground spaces must be weighed against⑦ the urgent issue of how to house⑧ the world's ballooning⑨ urban population—perhaps, one day, it will feel as natural to live and work underground as it does to do so over 100 storeys⑩ high.
①innovative adj.创新的
②functional adj.实用的
③whether引导表语从句
④scalable adj.可扩展的
⑤sustainable adj.可持续的
⑥perception n．看法；见解
⑦weigh against权衡
⑧house (常用义) n．房子 (文章义) v．给(某人) 提供住处
⑨balloon (常用义) n．气球 (文章义) v．膨胀

1．(语法填空) Today's architects and engineers are developing innovative ways ________(make) underground spaces ___________(function) and comfortable.
2．How does the author perceive the future potential of living and working underground
_______________________________________________
to make
functional
The author perceives it as a practical option.
【识文知意】　当今的建筑师和工程师正在开发创新的方法，使地下空间变得实用且舒适。然而，问题在于他们是否能为未来提供可扩展、可持续且切实可行的选择。除了实际考虑之外，还存在一个挑战，即建立对“进入地下”的积极认知。然而，建造宜居地下空间所面临的明显挑战必须与解决全球城市人口激增的住房问题的紧迫性相权衡——也许有一天，在地下生活和工作将像在100多层高的楼上那样自然。
