 窈窕淑女(My Fair Lady) This play by George Bernard Shaw (萧伯纳) is an adaptation of a Greek story.
Pygmalion, a gifted artist, makes a stone statue of a beautiful woman. He asks the Greek Goddess to bring her to life. His wish is granted(答应,同意). 心理学家莫顿（Robert Merton）将此现象名之为“自我实现的预言”。这也就是在萧伯纳名剧《 Pygmalion 》中为人所熟知的“皮格马利翁效应”（Pygmalion effect）。This play was also made into a film called My Fair Lady.Unit 4 Fateful meetings
