part one vacabularies

1, epic /??p?k/ ?壯麗的;宏大的 Something that is epic is very large and impressive.

原文: These stories may be old news now, but hardly a week goes by without breaking news about some upstanding citizen-a politician, religious leader, cop, teacher, or athlete-who?shocks the world with an epic willpower failure.

2, hysteria /h??sterij?/ ?不可數(shù)名詞(一群人的)情緒失控,狂野情緒的爆發(fā) Hysteria among a group of people is a state of uncontrolled excitement, anger, or panic

? ? hypocrisy /h??pɑ?kr?si/ 虛偽;偽善 If you accuse someone of hypocrisy, you mean that they pretend to have qualities, beliefs, or feelings that they do not really have

原文: Though you may not be in danger of a sex scandal worthy of national hysteria, we are all at risk for a little willpower hypocrisy-even if it's just cheating on our New Year's resolutions.

3, paradoxically /per-?-?d?k-si-k?l/ ?似矛盾而(可能) 正確的?

? ? indulge /?n?d?l?/ ?(使自己)沉迷;放縱(自己)

? ??virtue? /?v??u/ 美德;德行

? ? vice /?va?s/ ?缺點(diǎn);瑕疵;

原文: In some cases, we are the victims of our own self-control success. We'll?consider how progress can paradoxically undermine our motivation, how optimism can give us a license to indulge, and why feeling good about our virtue is the fastest path to vice.

4, progress N-UNCOUNT 不可數(shù)名詞 進(jìn)步;進(jìn)展 (看英文解釋更好理解娄徊,整個(gè)段落的主題)

Progress is the process of gradually improving or getting nearer to achieving or completing something.

原文: THE PROBLEM WITH PROGRESS

5, lunacy /?lu?n?si/ ?N-UNCOUNT 不可數(shù)名詞 荒誕瞒爬;愚蠢

If you describe someone's behaviour as lunacy, you mean that it seems very strange or foolish.

原文: This is lunacy, but it's an incredibly powerful trick of a mind that turns your wants into shoulds.


part two sentences

1, Goal liberation-The goal you've been suppressing with your self-control is going to become stronger, and any temptation will become more tempting.壓制的越強(qiáng)掘剪,欲望就來得更猛烈

2, In some cases, we are the victims of our own self-control success. We'll consider how progress can paradoxically undermine our motivation, how optimism can give us a license to indulge, and why feeling good about our virtue is the fastest path to vice. In each case, we'll see that giving in is a choice, and not an inevitable one.

3, Even if you aren't turning your willpower challenges into measures of your moral worth, it's still possible to fall into the trap of moral licensing.?That's because there's one thing all Americans instinctively moralize. Xo, not sex. Progress! Progress is good, and making progress on our goals feels good. So good that we like to congratulate ourselves: Well done, you!這個(gè)貌似是的洁奈。

4, Progress can be motivating, and even inspire future self-control, but only if you view your actions as evidence tha tyou are committed to your goal. In other words, you need to look at what you have done and conclude that you must really care about your goal, so much so that you want to do even more to reach it. This perspective is easy to adopt; it's just not our usual mind-set. More typically, we look for the reason to stop.這一段很有道理


part three summary

記籽团蟆:The next time you find yourself using past good behavior to justify indulging, pause and remember the why. remember the why. remember the why.?時(shí)刻記起自己的初始目的很重要
