As you start a new term, you might feel a bit worried or nervous. These feelings aren't fun to have. But would your favourite superhero have these same feelings?
Scientists have been studying what they call the "Batman Effect (效 应)" in children. They've found that if kids pretend (假装) to be a strong person — such as a superhero like Batman — they won't feel so nervous and will be able to focus(集中) on their work.
For example, if you feel nervous during an exam, try to imagine that you are Batman. You may find that you can remove the stress from this situation and feel more confident. This can help you fight off bad feelings and focus on your task, just like a superhero would. Pretending to be powerful makes us feel powerful, and that goes on to how we act in real life.
But you don't have to believe in superheroes for this to work. Anyone you admire (仰慕) can encourage you to get through hard times, or remind you of how you should act in certain situations. Movie stars, famous painters, even our own parents — anyone can be our "Batman".
As for me, I would like to choose Mr Rogers, He was a TV host who was always kind, helpful and patient when dealing with other people. I try to act the same way towards other people just like Mr Rogers.
