You can do it!

That’s a better way to motivate (激发) yourself than saying “I can do it, ” according to a new study that shows giving yourself advice and encouragement in the second-person before an upcoming task may actually improve your performance more than first-person self-talk.

“People are used to receiving and giving advice in the second-person, and they seem to prefer using the second-person pronoun to encourage themselves,” says study co-author, Dr. Sanda Dolcos, a researcher at the University of Illinois. “Self-advice expressed using ‘You’ probably enables people to have a broader perspective(观点), consider how others might view the event, and reproduce the kind of encouragements previously received from others.”

For the study, Dr. Dolcos and her colleague, Dr. Dolores, asked 143 undergraduate students to write down advice to themselves before completing a series of puzzles. Half of the students were asked to use the first-person, while the others wrote in the second-person.

What did the researchers find? The students who wrote in the second-person managed to complete more puzzles and appeared to have a more positive attitude.

The researchers also asked the students to write down advice to themselves in relation to exercising more often in the next two weeks. Those who wrote in the second-person, again, reported a more positive attitude toward the task and even planned to do more exercise than the students who referred to themselves in the first-person.

“We were not surprised and had previous research showing that people spontaneously use ‘You’ in situations that require high levels of self-control and action,” Dolcos said.

But why did the researchers ask students to write down their self-talk instead of saying it out loud? “ Writing as a tool of conversing with oneself has long been used as a therapeutical（治疗的）approach,” Dolcos explained. “However, further research is needed to determine which form of self-advice, written or spoken, is more beneficial.”

1. What did the researchers find?

A. Giving oneself advice and encouragement is very useful.

B. It is more encouraging to talk to oneself using the second-person.

C. First-person self-talk will not improve your performance.

D. A good way to motivate yourself is saying “I can do it”.

2.How did the students perform in the experiment?

A. The ones who wrote in the first-person had a better attitude.

B. The ones who talked to themselves completed the most puzzles.

C. The ones who encouraged themselves by writing in the second-person were better.

D. The ones who encouraged themselves in the first-person were more positive than others.

3. What does the underlined word “spontaneously” probably mean?

A. Against one’s will.

B. For one’s own interest.

C. On one’s own initiative (自发的).

D. Out of other peoples’ feelings.

4. What may the last two paragraphs imply?

A. Writing is a good style of conversation for oneself.

B. Writing can cure many diseases, and it has been proven by experts.

C. Whether written self-advice is better still needs to be tested.

D. Doctors prefer their patients to say things out loud when having problems.

New York University (NYU) is one of the best universities in the United States and it has just opened a school in Shanghai in partnership with East China Normal University(ECNU). The arrival of the American university on China mainland is an example of what is being called the “globalization” of education and it is hoped that this trend will influence the quality of education in all of China’s universities by raising the standard of teaching.

NYU Shanghai’s class of 2017(students will graduate in 2017) is made up of 295 students from China, America and other countries. The students will study liberal arts courses for two years before choosing a major and when they graduate, they will receive a degree from NYU and a degree from ECNU. All the classes will be taught in English, using the teaching methods in American universities. Students will be pushed to take risks in the classroom, pushed to speak up and pushed to say things that are not completely correct, which can make them understand that it’s OK for them to make mistakes in class.

This style of learning will be challenging for many Chinese students, because they will be mixed with the foreign students both in the classroom and in the dormitory. Living and studying with foreigners day to day will provide Chinese students with a cultural as well as academic education and it’s hoped that this cross-cultural experience will benefit them when they seek jobs in the competitive global market.

China’s interest in partnering with foreign universities comes at a time when western universities are trying to expand. They realize that information, technology and business are now borderless; they also realize education should be borderless too. This trend will have a deep effect on bringing the world closer together and the students at NYU Shanghai should be excited to be on the leading edge of this trend.
