Those with low self-esteem didn't feel better after the forced self-affirmation. In fact, their moods turned significantly darker than those of members of the control group, who weren't urged to think positive thoughts.

　　The paper provides support for newer forms of psychotherapy (心理治疗) that urge people to accept their negative thoughts and feelings rather than fight them. In the fighting, we not only often fail but can make things worse. Meditation (静思) techniques, in contrast, can teach people to put their shortcomings into a larger, more realistic perspective. Call it the power of negative thinking.

　　试题分析：本文属于科普类阅读，虽然积极的思维有好处，但是如果我们强迫那些自我认知程度较低的人去积极思维，不但不能提高积极程度，反而会有相反的结果。

　　32. What do we learn from the first paragraph about the self-help industry?

　　A. It is based on the concept of positive thinking.

　　B. It is a highly profitable industry.

　　C. It was established by Norman Vincent Peale.

　　D. It has produced positive results.

　　32. A 细节理解题。首段第一句“The $ 11 billion self-help industry is built on the idea that you should turn negative thoughts like “I never do anything right” into positive ones like “I can succeed.”属于细节理解题。选项中的based on与文中的built on同义。可知self-help industry是以人们的积极思维为基础的。故A正确。 33. What is the finding of the Canadian researchers?
