THE EXPECTATION SYNDROME Picfure another situation: Youf film-buff fnends ha\IC seen all three parts of the Academ~ Award-wlnnlng The LOtd of fhe Rings. They ra'V(! about its superb ooIor photography, Its fantastic computer.genel3fed scenes of strange-looking creatures, and its awesome special effc<::ts. They praise lIS senous. profound, and heartwarming treatment of the age-old oonnict bCt"",*n good and evil. The~ say It's the best Engllsf>.language movie of the last de<:ade, When you go to see one of the three parts, though, you're disappointed. You don't find il as excellenl as everyone has beefl sayin&- In fact, you feel It's a tedious. boring f1lO\/le and <;Oflsider It baslcall)' Just another $pecia~ effects lantasy film. These situallons Illustrate what we might call -UII~ expectation syndrome," a oonditlon In which events do not turn out as we leelthe~ will or ought to. Children olten do not meet \heir parents' Career expectations of them. Athleles do nol always win lhe conlests people expect tIIem to win. Greal literatUfe doosn't atways seem as good as 11 sho~ld. I asked psychialrist Rober\ Stevens whether e,pectations can aet~all)' make things turn out negatively, or whether this Is ".,..,"'Iy a philosophical question, an ~npleasant, frustrating irony of the human condition. RS: Well, what we're reall)' talking about here, I think, is the Immense power of the mind to control outcomes. For example, there's a medical condition called "focal dystonia," which is an abnormal muscle function caused b~ extreme concentration. Somehow, when athletes are concentrating too hard, it affc<::ts certain brain functions and they miss the basket. don't hit the ball, or lose the race. In effect, they'", letting their e.pectations eontrollhem. PO: Have you '-"'er had rocKET PIGESr THE EXPECTATION SYNDROME I Hope lor It, but I Don " Expect It r.,.... b7Je<.s.... Picture the scene: Il's the lourteetllh Willler Olympics in La~e Placid, New Vo'!\. The U.S. team is playing the Soviet team in the men's semifonal Ice hockey malch. The supposedly unbeatable SovIet squad, winners of the last four gold mlldals In hocke~, Is so accomplished that 11 has alroady beaten a team of National Hocke~ Leaguo all,stars, The American team is a group of college players who weren't even expected to make it to the medal rOOM, b~l here the~ are, Near1y everyone assumes the Soviet leam will win and fhe American leam will lose. Improbably, however, lhe Amerlcans defeat the Soviets, They then go on to beat the FinniSh team In the finals and win the gold medal. A sportseaster calling the match comes up with the famous line. "00)'0\1 believe in miracles?" Were !he Americans a better team than \he Solliets? Almost certainI)' not. Everyone (including the So\rIet players themsel'i'cs) el.Cessivcl)' on goals, our expectations lend to lake over, 8l1li Our mind places us outside the process. On the other hand, when we concentrate On the process instead of the goal, wc're often much more successful. Have you heard the phrase "t,ying too hard"? That's what people often de.

A variety ofexercise types guide students from recognition to accurate production of the grammar structure. ----0 Focused Practice always ends with an editing exercise to teach students to find and correct typical mistakes. • Step 4: Communication Practice This section provides open-ended communicative activities giving students the opportunity to use the grammar structure appropriately and fluently. A listening activity gives students the opportunity to check their aural comprehension. • Many exercises and activities are art-based to provide visual cues and an interesting context and springboard for meaningful conversations.
