Here are some ways to master it. Recite and repeat in conversation. When you hear a person’s name, repeat it. Immediately say it to yourself several times without moving your lips. You could also repeat the name in a way that does not sound forced or artificial. Ask the other person to recite and repeat. You can let other people help you remember their names. After you’ve been introduced to someone，ask that person to spell the name mad pronounce it correctly for you. Most people will be pleased by the effort you’re making to learn their names. Admit you don’t know. Admitting that you can’t remember someone’s name can actually make people relaxed. Most of them will feel sympathy if you say, “I’m working to remember names better. Yours is right on the tip of my tongue. What is it again?” Use associations. Link each person yon meet with one thing you find interesting or unusual. For example, you could make a mental note: "Vicki Cheng-tall, black hair.” To reinforce (加强) your associations, write them on a small card as soon as possible. Limit the number of new names you learn at one time. When meeting a group of people, concentrate on remembering just two or three names. Free yourself from remembering every one. Few of the people in mass introductions expect you to remember their names. Another way is to limit yourself to learning just first names. Last names can come later. Go early. Consider going early to conferences, parties and classes. Sometimes just a few people show up on time. That's fewer names for you to remember. And as more people arrive, you can hear them being introduced to others -- an automatic(自动的) review for you. 56. How will most people feel when you try hard to remember their names? A. They will be moved. B. They will be happy. C. They will be angry. D. They will be discouraged. 57. If you can’t remember someone’s name, you may __________. A. ask others to help you B. tell him a white lie C. ask him for pity D. tell him the truth 58. When you meet a group of people, it is better to remember __________. A. a couple of names first B. all their names C. just their last names D. as many names as possible 59. What does the text mainly tell us? A. How to recite and repeat names. B. Importance of attending parties. C. How to make use of associations. D. Tips on an important social skill. B I know what you’re thinking: pizza(比萨饼)?For breakfast? But the truth is that you can have last night’s leftovers in the a.m. if you want to. I know lots of women who skip breakfast (不吃早饭), and they have a ton of different excuses for doing it. Some say they don’t have time, others think they’re “saving” calories (卡路里)，still others just don’t like breakfast food . But the bottom line is that eating in the morning is very important when you’re trying to lose weight. “Eating just about anything from 300 to 400 calories would be better than nothing at all,” says Katherine Brooking, R.D., who developed the super-easy eating plan for this year’s “SELF CHALLENGE”. And even pizza can be healthy if it’s loaded with vegetables, and you stick to one small piece. Breakfast is one meal I never miss, and the same goes for most weight loss success stories. Research shows that eating breakfast keeps you from overeating later in the day. Researchers at the University of Southern California found that breakfast skippers have a bigger chance of gaining weight than those who regularly have a morning meal. (责任编辑：admin) |
