AThe Pygmalion Effect refers to the phenomenon in which the greater the expectation placed upon people, often children or students, the better they perform.How about the theory in the workplace？Prof.Dov Eden from Tel Aviv University’s Faculty of Management，conducted some experiments.In one of Prof.Eden’s experiments，he divided bank branch managers into two groups.One group of managers was told that their employees were preeminent;_the other group was told nothing about their employees’performance potential.When Prof.Eden analyzed performance results, he found a significant difference between the branches.There had been no pre-existing differences between the employees, but the branch managers，who were led to expect more, got more —their branches scored higher in terms of profitability (收益)and overall economic success.His findings confirm that the “Pygmalion Effect” can be created among leaders and subordinates(下属)．Subordinates get a 3-to-1 boost(增强)in their performance success rate if their leader expects more from them, says Prof.Eden.“Success” is determined by many related factors, such as completing a course，a performance rating on the job，or grades in a training program.But “if a leader has high expectations, it doesn’t mean that a subordinate will perform three times as well, ”Prof.Eden says.“It means that he or she will have a three times greater chance of being above-average.”Study results indicate that when a manager expects a lot from an employee, the manager’s leadership style changes and subsequently boosts the employee’s self-confidence.The Pygmalion research expands based on studies of the “experimenter effect” in the 1960s, the notion that an investigator can unintentionally influence the outcome of an experiment in significant ways.1．Prof.Eden’s experiments prove that ________.A．high expectations can lead to good performanceB．managers’performance influences subordinates’behaviourC．there’s little difference between employees’potentialD．success in the workplace is mainly determined by profitability2．From the text we can infer that ________.A．one’s potential can only be stimulated under pressureB．the Pygmalion Effect can be applied to different social fieldsC．the managers should change their leadership styles frequentlyD．the more expectation，the higher efficiency3．The underlined word “preeminent” in the second paragraph means “________”．A．outstanding B．importantC．modest D．prepared4．Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the text?A．Prof.Eden is not the first person to study the “Pygmalion Effect”．B．A subordinate will perform three times as well if the manager has high expectations.C．Proper leadership style change of managers can boost the employees’self-confidence.D．The “Pygmalion Effect” is the further study of the “experimenter effect”．Unit 4 twoⅠ.单句语法填空1．If we all agree to make ______ compromise with each other when we are in disputes, wars are forever gone and we

blowing across the sea make huge waves that surge (涌动) onto the land and flood coastal areas.River floods happen when rivers and streams can’t carry away the extra water that falls as rain or comes from melting snow.2.________These floods destroy farmland, wash away people’s houses and drown people and animals.Towns and cities can also be flooded.Coastal floods can be caused by strong winds blowing waves onto the land.3．________Very high tides and tsunamis also flood coasts.In many countries, large groups of people live along the coasts and for these people coastal flooding can be very serious.A flash flood is a quick flood caused by a sudden cloudburst or thunderstorm.4．________In a very short time, huge amounts of water fall and the drains overflow in cities and towns.Flash floods also happen in mountainous areas, where steep slopes cause the water to travel at high speeds.The rushing water erodes (侵蚀) the soil, washing it away down the slopes.Floods sometimes occur when artificial structures such as dams fail.If the dam is poorlydesigned or built in a place where earthquakes and landslides (滑坡) occur, the dam will break and the water floods the land.5.________They can move themselves and some of their property to higher ground, or build barriers to keep the water out of their homes.Sometimes the water rises quickly and people get caught in the flood.Water gets into buildings causing damage, things are washed away, and people have to leave their homes.A．Flood water enters houses.B．It often occurs rapidly and with little warning.C．An earthquake in the sea is another water-related disaster.D．Hurricanes and major storms produce most coastal floods.E．In this type of flood, water from rivers flows over the land.F．When floodwaters rise slowly people have time to get ready.G．A flood is a great flowing or overflowing of water onto land.短文改错Dear Mike，This summer I will go to study at the London University, but I don’t know how to adapt myself for the new life.I hear that many freshmen are at loss what to do when they are in a new country.Feel lonely and homesick, they find it much harder to get use to the new culture, diet and climate.Most of them can’t take well care of themselves in their everyday life.Beside，it is difficult to find a satisfied host.It is more difficult to fully understand what the teachers teach in class though they speak English all the time.Could you tell me how to deal with these problem so that I will be able to suit the university life in the future?Yours，Li Hua。
