question 107

Essay

Although Bill and Elliot are fairly similar in ability,they are as different as night and day in their approaches to school.Elliot seems to care only about how he looks to others.For the school science fair,for example,he selected an extremely easy project on ants that looked fancy and impressive but,actually,had very little substance.He continually makes excuses before taking tests,such as "I'm taking this without any studying." Or he might say,"I'll be happy with a C." After the test,however,he is quick to promote his own good performances when they occur.Bill is quite the opposite.He loves challenges and becomes totally immersed in books and projects.He says that when he gets interested in something,he wants to learn all that he can.He usually earns good grades in his courses,but he seems basically unconcerned about his test scores.
-Suppose that the boys' school is holding the annual fund-raising drive.Each student is asked to set goals for selling candy.(Last year the highest total sale was $225. )What is your prediction regarding the nature of the goals likely to be set by Bill and Elliot? Provide a rationale by explaining your predictions.
