阅读理解精讲精炼07 28. i learnt about the pygmalion effect (皮格玛丽翁效应) when i was 7 years old at riverdale school in palmerston north and i copied melissa crawford’s answers in a spelling test. before that i was average at school but after that, because melissa crawford was smart, and i got all the right answers, i got put in all the smart kids groups. from then i did really well at school because it was believed by the teachers that i would and i also got grouped with the smart kids. this experience that occurred at my primary school shows just how important the pygmalion effect is in terms of being around mentors (导师) that expect that you' re going to do well and also being around people who are smart. the pygmalion effect is one principle you want to use if you want to make money fast. have mentors that expect you will make money fast and as an extra boost hang around, copy and learn from other people who are also making money fast. yesterday this site had over 5000 unique visitors and the traffic to it is increasing all the time. a year ago i contacted a group of people who got lots of traffic m their sites and i learnt from them. truthfully i don’t know if they expected me to start getting decent traffic to websites but 1 imagined they did so they might as well have. so there you have it the pygmalion effect.
