retain any specific, personal experiences.
A variety of explanations have been
4
by psychologists for this "childhood amnesia" (儿童失忆症). One argues that the hippocampus, the region of the brain which is responsible for forming memories, does not mature
5
about the age of two. But the most popular theory
6
that, since adults do not think like children, they cannot

childhood memories. Adults think in words, and their life memories are like stories or

9
as in a novel or film. But when they search through their mental

for early childhood memories to add to this verbal life story, they don"t find any that fits the

Now psychologist Annette Simms of the New York State University offers a new
12
for childhood amnesia. She argues that there simply
13
any early childhood memories to recall. According to Dr. Simms, children need to learn to use

spoken description of their personal experiences in order to turn their own short-term, quickly

impressions of them into long-term memories. In other

单选题If you left your book on the table overnight, you would find the following morning that it was still exactly where you had left it, provided nobody had moved it. If a ball is made to roll on a very smooth surface, it will roll a long distance unless something stops it or changes its direction. This tendency of an object to remain at rest unless something moves it and to continue moving unless something stops it is known as the Law of Inertia. The following examples show the truth of this law. a. Put a table-cloth on a table and arrange a pile of books on it. Hold one edge of the table-cloth and pull it quickly. The table-cloth will come off, leaving the pile of books undisturbed. b. Place a small piece of cardboard on an open jar and place a coin on it directly over its mouth. Use one finger to flick the piece of cardboard away. You will notice that the coin drops into the jar. c. Sitting in a car which starts suddenly, you feel you are jerked backwards. In fact, you are not jerked backwards. Your lower half, which is in contact with the cushion, is forced to move forward with the car, and the upper part of your body, which remained at rest, is left behind.

A large part of effective leadership is
dependent on something called "style". But style is difficult to teach, and what
makes one leader great and another mediocre is not easily defined. Leadership
always implies power, and a broad definition in this {{U}}context{{/U}} is that
leadership includes the power to influence thoughts and actions of others in
such a way that they achieve higher satisfaction and/or performance. Over the
past century, there have been three major approaches to understanding
leadership. Identifying leadership traits, or the physical and
psychological characteristics of leaders, was the first formal approach, and had
a lot of intuitive appeal. It owed its origins to the mm of the century (about
1904) when trait studies began. At this time most American leaders came from
certain wealthy families, the vast majority were white males, and there were
some social {{U}}norms{{/U}} about what leaders looked like (tall, square jaw, well
groomed, etc.). The original assumption that "leaders are born, not made" has
been discredited, because there were too many exceptions to the traits to give
{{U}}them{{/U}} any credibility. Beginning after World War II, in sharp contrast to
the trait approach, the behavioral approach looked at what a leader does, what
behaviors leaders use that set them apart from others. This approach assumed
that leadership could be learned. Virtually all of the studies focused on
classifying behaviors according to whether they fell into a process or "people
approach" (satisfying individual needs), or a "task approach" (getting the job
done). The basis for this classification was in the discovery in social
psychology that every group needs someone to fulfill both these roles in the
group for it to be effective. The earliest of these studies began in Ohio State
University and the University of Michigan in the late 1940s. Many of the early
trait and behavioral writers tried to make their ideas applicable to all
leadership situations. The earliest situational approach to leadership was
developed in 1958. This approach {{U}}strived{{/U}} to identify characteristics of
the situation that allowed one leader to be effective where another was not. The
trend later developed toward the third approach, understanding the unique
characteristics of a situation and what kind of leadership style best matches
with these.
