[9] When facing a new situation, some people tend to rehearse their defeat by spending too much time anticipating the worst. I remember talking with a young lawyer who was about to begin her first jury trial. She was very nervous. I asked what impression she wanted to make on the jury. She replied: "I don’t want to look too inexperienced. I don’t want them to suspect this is my first trial." This lawyer had fallen victims to the don’ts syndrome— a form of negative goals setting. The don’ts can be self-fulfilling because your mind responses to pictures.
[10] Research conducted at Stanford University shows a mental image fires the nerve system the same way as actually doing something. That means when a golfer tells himself: "Don’t hit the ball into the water." His mind sees the image of the ball flying into the water. So guess where the ball will go?
[11] Consequently, before going into any stressful situation, focus only on what you want to have happen. I asked the lawyer again how she wanted to appear at her first trial. And this time she said: "I want to look professional and self-assured." I told her to create a picture of what self-assured would look like. To her, it meant moving confidently around the court room, using convincing body language and projecting her voice, so it could be heard from the judge’s bench to the back door. She also imagined a skillful closing argument and a winning trial. [12] A few weeks after this positive stress rehearsal, the young lawyer did win.
Questions 9 to 12 are based on the passage you have just heard.
9. What do some people do when they face a new situation?
10. What does the research conducted at Stanford University show?
11. What advice does the speaker give to people in a stressful situation?
12. What do we learn about the lawyer in the court?
选项
A、A person’s nervous system is more complicated than imagined.
B、Golfers usually have positive mental images of themselves.
C、Mental images often interfere with athletes’ performance.
D、Thinking has the same effect on the nervous system as doing.
答案
D
解析
浏览四个选项,根据选项中出现的nervous system,mental images等词可推测,此题与运动员的精神状态有关。题干问的是斯坦福大学的研究结果表明了什么。短文中提到斯坦福大学的研究结果表明心理意象对神经系统的刺激,如同做某事对神经系统的刺激。thinking与mental image属于同义转换,故答案为D。A项(一个人的神经系统比想象中的更复杂),B项(高尔夫球员通常有一种积极的心理意象),C项(心理意象经常干扰运动员的表现)短文中均未提及,故排除。
