36、chnique involves taking unrelated ideas and trying to find links between them. First, think about the problem you have to solve or the job you need to do. Then find an image, word, idea or object, for example, a candle. Write down all the ideas/words associated with candles: light, fire, matches, wa

37、x, night, silence, etc. Think of as many as you can. The next stage is to relate the ideas to the job you have to do. So imagine you want to buy a friend an original present; you could buy him tickets to a match or take him out for the night.Imagine that normal limitations dont exist. You have as mu

38、ch time/space/money, etc. as you want. Think about your goal and the new possibilities. If, for example, your goal is to learn to ski(滑雪),you can now practice skiing every day of your life(because you have the time and the money). Now adapt this to reality. Maybe you can practice skiing every day in

39、 December, or every Monday in January.Look at the situation from a different point of view. Good negotiators(谈判者)use this technique in business, and so do writers. Fiction writers often imagine they are the characters in their books. They ask questions: what does this character want? Why cant she ge

40、t it? What changes must she make to get what she wants? What does she dream about? If your goal involves other people, put yourself “in their shoes“.

During the past 50 years, the rate of divorce in the United States has exploded. a

45、lmost 50% of marriages end in divorce now, and the evidence suggests it is going to get worse. If this trend continues, it will lead to the breakup of the family, according to a spokesperson for the National Family Association. Some futurists predict that in 100 years, the average American will marr

46、y at least four times, and extramarital(婚外的) affairs will be even more common than they are now.But what are the reasons for this, and is the picture really so gloomy(阴暗的)? The answer to the first question is really quite simple. marriage is no longer the necessity it once was. The institution of ma

While the rate of divorce has risen, the rate o couples marrying has never actually fallen very much, so marriage is still quite popular. In addition to this, many couples now simply live together
