The $ 11 billion self – help industry is built on the idea that you should turn negative thoughts like “ I never do anything right” into positive ones like “I can succeed.” But was positive thinking advocate Norman Vincent Peale right? Is there power in positive thinking?
Researchers in Canada just published a study in the journal Psychological Science that says trying to get people to think more positively can actually have the opposite effect: it can simply highlight how unhappy they are.
The study's authors, Joanne Wood and John Lee of the University of Waterloo and Elaine Perunovic of the University of New Brunswick, begin by citing older research showing that when people get feedback which they believe is overly positive, they actually feel worse, not better. If you tell your dim friend that he has the potential of an Einstein, you're just underlining his faults. In one 1990s experiment, a team including psychologist Joel Cooper of Princeton asked participants to write essays opposing funding for the disabled. When the essayists were later praised for their sympathy, they felt even worse about what they had written.
In this experiment, Wood, Lee and Perunovic measured 68 students' self-esteem. The participants were then asked to write down their thoughts and feelings for four minutes. Every 15 seconds, one group of students heard a bell. When it rang, they were supposed to tell themselves, "I am lovable."
Those with low self-esteem didn't feel better after the forced self-affirmation. In fact, their moods turned significantly darker than those of members of the control group, who weren't urged to think positive thoughts.
The paper provides support for newer forms of psychotherapy (心理治疗) that urge people to accept their negative thoughts and feelings rather than fight them. In the fighting, we not only often fail but can make things worse. Meditation (静思) techniques, in contrast, can teach people to put their shortcomings into a larger, more realistic perspective. Call it the power of negative thinking.
【小题1】What do we learn from the first paragraph about the self-help industry?

A.It is a highly profitable industry.
B.It is based on the concept of positive thinking.
C.It was established by Norman Vincent Peale.
D.It has yielded positive results.
【小题2】What is the finding of the Canadian researchers?
A.Encouraging positive thinking many do more harm than good.
B.There can be no simple therapy for psychological problems.
C.Unhappy people cannot think positively.
D.The power of positive thinking is limited.
【小题3】What does the author mean by "you're just underlining his faults" in the third paragraph?
A.You are not taking his mistakes seriously enough.
B.You are pointing out the errors he has committed.
C.You are emphasizing the fact that he is not intelligent.
D.You are trying to make him feel better about his faults.
【小题4】It can be inferred from the experiment of Wood, Lee and Perunovic that        .
A.it is important for people to continually keep their self - esteem
B.self – affirmation can bring a positive change to one’s mood
C.forcing a person to think positive thoughts may lower their self - esteem
D.people with low self – esteem seldom write down their true feelings

How to Argue with Your Boss

    Before you argue with your boss, check with the boss’s secretary to determine his mood. If he ate nails for breakfast, it is not a good idea to ask him for something. Even without the boss’s secretary, there are keys to timing: don’t approach the boss when he’s on deadline; don’t go in right before lunch, when he is apt to be distracted and rushed; don’t go in just before or after he has taken a vacation.

    If you’re mad, that will only make your boss mad. Calm down first. And don’t let a particular concern open the floodgates for all your accumulated frustration. The boss will feel that you think negatively about the company and it is hopeless trying to change your mind. Then, maybe he will dismiss you.

    Terrible disputes can result when neither the employer nor the employee knows what is the problem the other wants to discuss. Sometimes the fight will go away when the issues are made clear. The employee has to get his point across clearly in order to make the boss understand it.

    Your boss has enough on his mind without your adding more. If you can’t put forward an immediate solution, at least suggest how to approach the problem. People who frequently present problems without solutions to their boss may soon find they can’t get past the secretary.

    To deal effectively with a boss, it’s important to consider his goals and pressures. If you can put yourself in the position of being a partner to the boss, then he will be naturally more inclined to work with you to achieve your goals.

1.Paragraph 2 ______

2.Paragraph 3 ______

3.Paragraph 4 ______

4.Paragraph 5 ______

 

A. Keep Your Voice Low All the Time

B. Put Yourself in the Boss’s Position

C. Propose Your Solution

D. Don’t Go in When You Are Angry

E. Make the Issue Clear

F. Never Give in

 

5.If you want to ask the boss for anything, it is important to find out first _________.

6.It is necessary to make clear to the boss ___________.

7.It is not wise to present the boss with a problem ___________.

8.You must be considerate and think of the troubles ____________.

 

A. to give the boss your advice

B. how he is feeling

C. the boss may have

D. what you really want to talk to him about

E. without suggesting a way to solve it
