played an important role in how people were perceived (感知) by others. they concluded that the easier a persons name was to say, the better their success was in the workplace and the quicker career advancement (提升) they enjoyed. their study also found that a simple name improved peoples ability to make new friends. dr. simon laham, who led the study, said people with simple names were generally judged more positively (积极地). “the effect is not because of the length of a name or how foreign-sounding or unusual it is, but rather how easy it is to pronounce,” he said. in their study the team studied the way names can influence a persons impressions and decision making. they looked at lots of names of 500 university student volunteers from british, asian, and european backgrounds and a field of 500 lawyers in america. the team found that people with more pronounceable names were more likely to achieve success. they found that american lawyers with easier sounding names got career advancement faster within their law firms. names including sherman, jenkins, benson, and angus ranked among the easiest to pronounce, while farquharson and loughnane and european names such as leszczynska were found to be difficult to pronounce. they concluded that a simple name was the key to success. dr. laham said the results could have important implications (意义) for how managers dealt with bias (偏见). “its important to treat the biases that shape our choices and judgments about others,” he said. “it may help remove bias, leading to fairer, more objective treatment of others.” 32. what factor of a name plays the key role in deciding its effect?a. the length of the name.b. the pronunciation of the name.c. the meaning of the name. d. whether the name is unusual or not.33. the

quicker career advancement. b. people with hard-to-say names should struggle for fairer treatment.c. people with hard-to-say names should avoid unfair treatment from others.d. the importance of
