6、For her first twenty-four year, she’d been known as Debbie---a name that didn’t suit her good looks and elegant manner.” My name has always made me think I should be a cheerleader,” She complained.”I just don’t feel like a Debbie!”
One day ,while filling out an application form for publishing job, the young woman suddenly changed middle name, Lynne, for her first name Debbie.“That was the smartest thing I ever did,” She says now.“ As soon as I stopped calling myself Debbie.I felt more comfortable with myself… and other people started to take me more seriously”.Two years after her successful magazine editor--- friends and associates call her Lynne.
Naturally, the name change didn’t cause Debbie/Lynne’s professional achievement--- but it surely helped if only by adding a bit of self-confidence to her talents.Social scientists say that what you are called can affect your life.Through history, names have not only identified people but also described them.”… As his name is, so is he …? says the Bible.For better or worse, qualities such as friendliness or reserves, simple ness or charm may be suggested by your name and encourage other people before they even meet you.
Of course , names with a good sense can work for you ---even encouraging new acquaintances.A recent survey showed that American men thought Susan to be the attractive female name, while women believed Richard and David were the most attractive to men.One woman I know turned down a blind date with a man named Harry because “he sounded dull.” Several evenings later she came up to me at a party, pressing for an introduction to a very nice man with whom they looked at each other all evening.“Oh, “ I said.” You mean Harry?” She was ill at ease.

4、A branch of psychology called neurolinguistic programming has made an interesting and useful discovery :You can change the way you imagine or remember things without changing what you imagine, and it will change your feelings.For example, if a visual memory makes you sad whenever you think about it, you can make that mental picture smaller and dimmer, and when you do, the memory won’t make you as sad.Since you haven’t changed the content of the memory, you haven’t lost any information.You have simply made it less painful.
When you visually remember a pleasant memory, you can made the picture more colorful and the money will give you even more intense good feelings.You can make your pictures of the future brighter, wider , deeper, or you can bring the images closer.Changes like these will make you feel different--- even when you leave the content of the picture the same.
These are general guidelies(指導(dǎo)方針).You’ll need to experiment for yourself to find out what will work for a particular image.For a few people, making an exciting picture brighter makes the feelings less intense.And for some kinds of pictures, increasing the brightness would cause the feelings to become less intense --- for example, a romantic memory.
What is true for visual images also applies to the way you talk to yourself.
For example, if you have trouble motivating yourself , try changing the tone of voice you use when you spread to yourself.Some people order themselves about .The voice they use to talk to themselves is harsh and commanding.Listening to yourself being bossy can have the same effect as listening to someone else being bossy: It can make you want to rebel.Change your tone to friendly or seductive, and you might feel more motivated .When you tell yourself, “I can do it,” fill your internal voice with enthusiasm and back it up with inspiring music.The possibilities are in fact endless.
The important thing to understand is that they way you code your inner world has an impact , and you have quite a bit of control over that coding.You can change it deliberately.When you do , it will change your feelings, which change your actions, which will change the world around you..
1.Which is the best title of the passage?
A.You Can Change the World Around You
B.Be Merry
C.You Can Change People’s Attitude towards You
D.Talk to Yourself in a Friendly Way
2.The underlined word “deliberately” can be replaced by ___
A.by change B.on purpose C.difficultly D.wiser
3.We can infer that if we make a sad mental picture bigger and brighter, we can become _____
A.happier B.sadder C.calmer D.wiser.
4.What does the underlined sentence “Some people order themselves around” suggest?
A.Some people order a lot of food.
B.Some people order others to follow their instructions
C.Some people are very hard on themselves
D.Some people are very strict with themselves.
