Personality is to a large extent inherent — A-type parents usually bring about A-type offspring. But the environment must also have a【B1】______effect, since if competition is important to the parents, it is likely to become a major factor in the lives of their children.
One place where children【B2】______A-characteristics is school, which is, by its very nature, a highly competitive institution. Too many schools adopt the ’win at all costs’ moral standard and【B3】______their success by sporting achievements. The current passion for making children【B4】______their classmates or against the clock produces a two-layer system, in which competitive A-types seem in some way better than their B-type fellows. Being too keen to win can have dangerous consequences: remember that Pheidippides, the first marathon runner,【B5】______dead seconds after saying "Rejoice, we conquer!"
By far the worst form of competition in schools is the disproportionate emphasis on examinations. It is a rare school that allows pupils to【B6】______those things they do well. The merits of competition by examination are somewhat questionable, but competition in the certain knowledge of failure is positively harmful.
Obviously, it is neither practical nor【B7】______that all A-youngsters change into B’s. The world needs A-types, and schools have an important duty to try to fit a child’s personality to his possible future employment. It is top management.
If the preoccupation of schools with【B8】______work was lessened, more time might be spent teaching children surer values. Selection for the caring professions could be made less by good grades in chemistry and more by such【B9】______as sensitivity and sympathy. It is surely a mistake to choose our doctors【B10】______from A-type stock. B’s are important and should be encouraged.
