The twist, says, is that he has believed the nameletter effect would apply only to positive outcomes. Nelson and Simmons, he says, are “showing it applies more so to negative things than positive things.”
The researchers say the effect is definitely more of a coincidence (巧合) than a fact. “I know plenty of Chrises and Davids who have done very well in school,” Pelham says.
文章大意:本文为一篇议论文。加州和耶鲁大学的心理学家通过研究发现,名字与成功之间存在着“姓名-字母效应”,而对此结果,有些研究人员则表示否定,认为这不过是巧合而已。
1.The new research is mainly about the relationship between one's ________.
A.name and unconsciousness
B.name and characteristics
C.name and success
D.sports and school achievements
答案:C 细节理解题。根据文章第一段第一句“... new research that finds your name can negatively make you achieve less.”可知,这项研究发现,尽管是无意识的,但你的名字会对你的成功有一些消极影响。因此可推断出,这项研究主要是研究姓名与成功之间的关系。故答案选C。
2.Who may serve as an example to show the “nameletter effect”?
A.Miss Smith working as a lawyer.
