9、doing two things at once, a new research suggests. The findings, based on performances and self-evaluations by about 275 college students, indicate that many multitask not out of a desire to increase productivity, but because they are easily distracted (分心) and cant focus on one activity. And “those
10、 people turn out to be the worst at handling different things,” said David Sanbonmatsu, a psychologist at the University of Utah.Sanbonmatsu and his colleagues gave the students a set of tests and asked them to report how often they multitasked, how good they thought they were at it, and how sensati
11、on-seeking (寻求刺激) or imperative (冲动) they were. They then evaluated the participants multitasking ability with a tricky mental task that required the students to do simple mathematical calculations while remembering a set of letters.Not surprisingly, the scientists said, most people thought they wer
12、e better than average at multitasking, and those who thought they were better at it were more likely to report using a cellphone while driving or viewing multiple kinds of media at once. But those who frequently deal with many things at the same time were found to perform the worst at the actual mul
13、titasking test. They also were more likely to admit to sensation-seeking and impulsive behavior, which connects with how easily people get bored and distracted.“People multitask not because its going to lead to greater productivity, but because theyre distractible, and they get sucked into things th
14、at are not as important.” Sanbonmatsu said.Adam Gazzaley, a researcher at the University of California, San Francisco, who was not a member of the research group, said one limitation of the study was that it couldnt find out whether people who start out less focused toward multitasking or whether pe
15、oples recognizing and understanding abilities change as a result of multitasking.The findings do suggest, however, why the sensation-seeker who multitask the most may enjoy risky distracted driving. “People who are multitasking are generally less sensitive to risky situations.” said Paul Atchley, an
16、other researcher not in the group. “This may partly explain why people go in for these situations even though theyre dangerous.”21. The research led by Sanbonmatsu indicates that people who multitask _.A. seek high productivity constantly（连续不断）B. prefer handling different things when getting boredC.
17、 are more focused when doing many things at a timeD. have the poorest results in doing various things at the same time22. When Sanbonmatsu and his colleagues conducted their research, they _.A. assessed(评价) the multitasking ability of the studentsB. evaluated (评价)the academic achievements of the stu
18、dentsC. analyzed the effects of the participants tricky mental tasksD. measured the changes of the students understanding ability23. According to Sanbonmatsu, people multitask because of their _.A. limited power in calculationB. interests in doing things differentlyC. inability to concentrate on one
19、 task D. impulsive desire to try new things24. From the last paragraph, we can learn that multitaskers usually _.A. drive very skillfullyB. go in for different tasksC. fail to react quickly to potential dangersD. refuse to explain the reasons for their behaviorB When 19-year-old Sophia Giorgi said s

But Sophia knew just how important Make-A-Wish could be because this special organization had helped to make a dream come true for one her best friends .We were interested in findin

Id use it if I were hanging out with friends at 3 a. m. and going to the bar and wanted to see what was open, said Walter Choo, 40, of Fort Greene.The smartphone-like glasses will likel
30、y come out this year and cost between $250 and $600, the Times said, possibly including a variation of augmented(增强的) reality, a technology already available on smartphones and tablets (平板电脑) that overlays information onto the screen about ones surroundings. So, for example, if you were walking down
31、 a street, indicators would pop up showing you the nearest coffee shop or directions could be plotted out and come into view right on the sidewalk in front of you.“As far as a mainstream consumer product, this just isnt something anybody needs,” said Sam Biddle, who writes for G. “Were accustomed to
32、 having one thing in our pocket to do all these things,” he added, “and the average consumer isnt gonna be able to afford another device (装置) thats hundreds and hundreds of dollars.”9to5Google publisher Seth Weintraub, who has been reporting on the smartphone-like glasses since late last year, said
33、he is confident that this type of wearable device will eventually be as common as smartphones.“Its just like smartphones 10 years ago,” Weintraub said. “A few people started getting emails on their phones, and people thought that was crazy.

37、by a new technologyD When asked about happiness, we usually think of something extraordinary, an absolute delight, which seems to get rarer the older we get. For kids, happiness has a magical quality. Their delight at winning a race or getting a new bike is unreserved(毫不掩饰的). In the teenage years th
38、e concept of happiness changes. Suddenly its conditional on such things as excitement, love and popularity. I can still recall the excitement of being invited to dance with the most attractive boy at the school party. In adulthood the things that bring deep joy-love, marriage, birth-also bring respo
39、nsibility and the risk of loss. For adults, happiness is complicated(复杂的) My definition for happiness is “the capacity for enjoyment”. The more we can enjoy what we have, the happier we are. Its easy to overlook the pleasure we get from the company of friends, the freedom to live where we please, an
40、d even good health. I experienced my little moments of pleasure yesterday. First I was overjoyed when I shut the last lunch-box and had the house to myself. Then I spent an uninterrupted morning writing, which I love. When the kids and my husband came home, I enjoyed their noise after the quiet of t
41、he day. Psychologists tell us that to be happy we need a mix of enjoyable leisure time and satisfying work. I dont think that my grandmother, who raised 14 children, had much of either. She did have a network of close friends and family, and maybe this is what satisfied her. We, however, with so man
42、y choices and such pressure to succeed in every area, have turned happiness into one more thing weve got to have. Weve so self-conscious about our “right” to it that its making us miserable. So we chase it and equal it with wealth and success, without noticing that the people who have those things a
43、rent necessarily happier Happiness isnt about what happens to us-its about how we see what happens to us. Its the skillful way of finding a positive for every negative. Its not wishing for what we dont have, but enjoying what we do possess. 33. What can we learn about the author from Paragraph 5 and

47、ccess in life.The problem is that none of these things is easy or even possible to achieve. How much money is “lots”? What does a “great” relationship mean? If you have unclear definitions of success, youre never going to be satisfied. Its up to you to decide what success means in your life. 37 For
48、you, success could be : never having to worry about money, being healthy and fit, playing an important role in your family, writing a book having it published, or almost anything! 38 When you think about your success, make it as concrete(具体的) as possible. If you simply want to “be rich”, then youll
49、struggle to ever feel like youve managed it. A better goal might be “make $100,000 a year.”_39_You might not be able to put a number to it, but look for some ways to record your progress towards your goal. For example, if “success” means “being happy and happy with my life”, then you might write dow
50、n your thoughts regularly in your diary. You might know thins saying: “I have not failed. Ive just found 10,000 ways that wont work.” If youre starting your first business, you might fail. Thats nothing to be ashamed of 40 When you were a child, you failed many times while learning to walk, to talk,
51、 to read and to write. But those failures were necessary in order to finally succeed. Sure, you might fail again and again before you succeed, but isnt that better than never even trying?A. Thats what we should obtainB. Success doesnt have to the about moneyC. Dont follow someone elses exampleD. Its
