1
There's an amazing discovery in psychology that I like to call the blue dot effect.
2
Years ago, researchers at Harvard sat people down
3
and showed them a series of dots and asked them to identify which ones were blue.
4
At first, there was a mix of blue and non -blue and people were pretty accurate.
5
But as the experiment went on, there were fewer blue dots shown and people became less accurate, regularly mistaking shades of purple for being blue.
6
Okay, big deal, right?
7
Well, they next showed people human faces and told them to identify the threatening ones.
8
At first, people were good at this, but then, as researchers showed fewer threatening faces, as with the blue dots, people began to mistake friendly faces for being threatening.
9
They then repeated this over and over again with threatening language, unethical job proposals, dangerous groups, and so on.
10
So why is this important?
11
Well, let's say there's a big problem in your life
12
and you spend a lot of time and energy trying to solve it.
13
The blue dot effect suggests that instead of feeling as though you're making progress on the problem, your mind will simply redefine the problem in such a way that you never totally stop experiencing it.
14
That's why...

什么是跟读法？
跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧，最初开发用于专业口译员的培训，并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大：您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同，跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性，语调，节奏，连读，听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
