You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre. Passage One Questions 57 to 61 are based on the following passage. Fourteen-year-old Richie Hawley had spent five years studying violin at the Community School of Performing Arts in Los Angeles when he took part in a violin contest. Ninety-two young people were invited to the contest and Hawley came out first. The contest could have been the perfect setup for fear, worrying about mistakes, and trying to impress the judges. But Hawley says he “did pretty well at staying calm. I couldn't be thinking about how many mistakes I’d make -- it would distract me from playing,” he says. “I don’t even remember trying to impress people while I played.

A characteristic of high performers is their intense, pleasurable concentration on work, rather than on their competitors or future glory or money, says Dr. Charles Garfield, who has studied 1,500 achievers in business, science, sports, the arts, and professions. “They are interested in winning, but they’re most interested in self development, testing their limits.” One of the most surprising things about top performers is how many losses they’ve had -- and how much they’ve learned from each. “Not one of the 1,500 I studied defined losing as failing.” Garfield says. “They kept calling their losses ‘setbacks.’” A healthy attitude toward setbacks is essential to winning, experts agree. “The worst thing you can do if you’ve had a setback is to let yourself get stuck in a prolonged
