AI learnt about the Pygmalion Effect (皮格马利翁效应) when I was 7 years old at Riverdale School in Palmerston North and I copied Melissa Crawford's answers in a spelling test. Before that I was average at school but after that, because Melissa Crawford was smart, and I got all the right answers, I got put in all the smart kids groups. From then on I did really well at school because it was believed by the teachers that I would and I also got grouped with the smart kids. This experience that occurred at my primary school shows just how important the Pygmalion Effect is in terms of being around mentors (导师) that expect that you're going to do well and also being around people who are smart.The Pygmalion Effect is one principle you want to use if you want to make money fast. Have mentors that expect you will make money fast and as an extra boost hang around, copy and learn from other people who are also making money fast.Yesterday this site had over 5, 000 unique visitors and the traffic to it is increasing all the time. A year ago I contacted a group of people who got lots of traffic in their sites and I learnt from them.

Unit 4 Pygmalion皮格马利翁效应指的是人的情感和观念会不同程度地受到别人下意识的影响。

人们会不自觉地承受自己喜欢、钦佩、信任和崇拜的人的影响和暗示。

而这种暗示，正是让你梦想成真的基石之一。

Pygmalion EffectA team can do as well as you and the team think they can.This idea is known as“the self­fulfilling prophecy〞．When you believe the team can perform well，in some strange and magical way they can.And similarly, when you believe they can't perform well, they can't.The self­fulfilling prophecy is also known as the Pygmalion Effect.This comes from a story by Ovid about Pygmalion, who created an ivory statue of his ideal woman.And he immediately fell in love with it.He begged the goddess to breathe life into the statue and make her his own.She granted Pygmalion his wish, the statue came to life and the couple married and lived happily ever after.The story was also the basis of George Bernard Shaw's play “Pygmalion〞．In Shaw's play, Professor Henry Higgins claims he can turn a Cockney flower girl, Eliza Doolittle, into a duchess.But, as Eliza herself points out to Higgins' friend Pickering，it isn't what she learns or does that determines whether she will become a duchess，but how she's treated.“You see，really and truly, apart from the things anyone can pick up, the difference between a lady and a flower girl is not how she behaves but how she's treated.I shall always be a flower girl to Professor Higgins, because he always treats me as a flower girl, and always will, but I know I can be a lady to you because you always treat me as a lady，and always will.〞The implication of the Pygmalion Effect for leaders and managers is massive.It means that the performance of your team depends less on them than it does on you.The performance you get from people is no more or less than what you expect: which means you must always expect the best.As Goethe said，“Treat a man as he is and he willremain as he is.Treat a man as he can and should be and he will become as he can and should be.〞1．prophecy n．预言2．implication n. 运用3．massive adj. 巨大的判断正(T)误(F)1．George Bernard Shaw's play “Pygmalion〞is based on the story about Pygmalion.()2．Pygmalion effect can be used in many aspects.()答案：1.T 2.TSection ⅠWarming Up & Reading－Preparing根据提示写出如下单词1．vi.犹豫；踌躇2．adj. 带来麻烦的；使人心烦的3．n. 结果；效果4．adj.
