　　篇一

　　The 2% who SucceedThe overwhelming majority絕大多數 of people never recognize the difference between wishing and believing. They never take six steps that will help them use their minds to attain their desires. These steps are summarized below, along with my observations, based on a lifetime of study, of the percentage of people who attain each one.

　　Most people go through life merely wishing for thins. These wishes are as fleeting as the wind. They have no power to shape anything. The number of people who stop here: 70 percent.

　　A much smaller percentage develop their wihes into desires. They want the same thing constantly, but that is the end of their commitement. They represent 10 percent.

　　A still smaller percentage develop their wishes and desired into hopes. They dare to imagine, from time to time, that they might get what they seek. I estimate they constitute 8 percent.

　　An even smaller group translates that hope into belief. They expect what they want will actually happen. These people number 6 percent.

　　A smaller group of people crystallize使結晶，明確 their wishes, desires, and hopes into belief, then into a burning desire, and finally into faith.The constitute 4 percent.

　　Finally, a very few people take the last two steps and then make a plan to get what they want and carry it out. They apply their faith with positive mental attitudes. This group is only 2 percent.

　　The outstanding leaders in every walk of life are the people in the sixth group. They recognize the power of their own minds; they seize that power and direct it toward what ever they choose. When you take this step, the word "impossible" will have no meaning for you. Everything will be possible for you, and you will manage to get it.

　　The science of love

　　Scientists are finding that, after all, love really is down to a chemical addiction between people.

　　OVER the course of history it has been artists, poets and playwrights劇作家who have made the greatest progress in humanity's understanding of love. Romance has seemed as inexplicable費解的 as the beauty of a rainbow. But these days scientists are challenging that notion, and they have rather a lot to say about how and why people love each other.

　　Is this useful? The scientists think so. For a start, understanding the neurochemical pathways that regulate social attachments may help to deal with defects in people's ability to form relationships. All relationships, whether they are those of parents with their children, spouses with their partners, or workers with their colleagues, rely on an ability to create and maintain social ties. Defects can be disabling, and become apparent as disorders such as autism and schizophrenia精神分裂症 —and, indeed, as the serious depression that can result from rejection in love. Research is also shedding light on some of the more extreme forms of sexual behaviour. And, controversially, some utopian烏托邦的 fringe groups see such work as the doorway to a future where love is guaranteed because it will be provided chemically, or even genetically engineered from conception.

　　The scientific tale of love begins innocently enough, with voles. The prairie vole野鼠 is a sociable creature, one of the only 3% of mammal species that appear to formmonogamous一夫一妻的 relationships. Mating between prairie voles is a tremendous 24-hour effort. After this, they bond for life. They prefer to spend time with each other, groom each other for hours on end and nest together. They avoid meeting other potential mates. The male becomes an aggressive guard of the female. And when their pups are born, they become affectionate深情的 and attentive parents. However, another vole, a close relative called the montane vole, has no interest in partnership beyond one-night-stand sex. What is intriguing is that these vast differences in behaviour are the result of a mere handful of genes. The two vole species are more than 99% alike, genetically.
