Remembering names is an important social skill. Here are some ways to master it.
● Recite and repeat in conversation. When you hear a person’s name, repeat it.    1    You could also repeat the name in a way that does not sound forced or artificial.
● Ask the other person to recite and repeat.     2    After you’ve been introduced to someone, ask that person to spell the name and pronounce it correctly for you. Most people will be pleased by the effort you’re making to learn their names.
●     3    Admitting that you can’t remember someone’s name can actually make people relaxed. Most of them will feel sympathy（同情） if you say, “I’m working to remember names better. Yours is right on the tip of my tongue. What is it again?”
● Use associations （联想）.     4    For example, you could make a mental note: “ Vicki Cheng­­­­­­­­ — tall, black hair.” To reinforce (强迫) your associations, write them on a small card as soon as possible.
● Limit the number of new names you learn at one time. When meeting a group of people, concentrate（全神贯注）on remembering just two or three names.     5    Few of the people in mass introductions expect you to remember their names. Another way is to limit yourself to learning just first names. Last names can come later.
A．Admit you don’t know.
B．Recite and repeat names.
C．Free yourself from remembering everyone.
D．You can let other people help you remember their names.
E. If you can’t remember someone’s name, you may tell him the truth.
F. Immediately say it to yourself several times without moving your lips.
G. Link each person you meet with one thing you find interesting or unusual.

3 . The Diet Zone: A Dangerous Place

Diet Coke, diet Pepsi, diet pills, no-fat diet, vegetable diet… We are surrounded by the word “diet” everywhere we look and listen. We have so easily been attracted by the promise and potential of diet products that we have stopped thinking about what diet products are doing to us. We are paying for products that harm us psychologically and physically（身体上）.

Diet products significantly weaken us psychologically. On one level, we are not allowing our brain to admit that our weight problems lie not in actually losing the weight, but in controlling the consumption of fatty, high-calorie, unhealthy foods. Diet products allow us to jump over the thinking stage and go straight for the scale（秤）instead. All we have to do is to swallow or recognize the word “diet” in food labels.

On another level, diet products have greater psychological effects. Every time we have a zero-calorie drink, we are telling ourselves without our awareness that we don’t have to work to get results. Diet products make people believe that gain comes without pain, and that life can be without resistance and struggle.

The danger of diet products lies not only in the psychological effects they have on us, but also in the physical harm that they cause. Diet foods can indirectly harm our bodies because consuming them instead of healthy foods means we are preventing our bodies from having basic nutrients(营养成分). Diet foods and diet pills contain zero calorie only because the diet industry has created chemicals to produce these wonder products. Diet products may not be nutritional, and the chemical that go into diet products are potentially dangerous.

Now that we are aware of the effects that diet products have on us, it is time to seriously think about buying them. Losing weight lies in the power of minds, not in the power of chemicals. Once we realize this, we will be much better able to resist diet products, and therefore prevent the psychological harm that comes from using them.
