24、 The term “multitasking” was firstly used to describe a computer’s ability to do several tasks at one time. For many people, multitasking has become a way of life and even a key to success. Although checking e-mails while talking on a phone and reading the newspaper may be second nature for some people, multitasking can sometimes make us less productive(富有成效的), rather than more. Studies show that too much multitasking may bring anxiety and memory loss.
In order to multitask, the brain uses an area known as the prefrontal cortex(前额叶脑皮层). A research from volunteers performing multiple tasks shows that as they move from task to task, this front part of the brain actually takes a moment of rest between tasks. You may have experienced a prefrontal cortex “moment of rest” yourself if you’ve ever dialed(拨电话) a phone number and suddenly forgotten who you dialed when the line is answered. What probably happened is that between the dialing and the answering, your mind moved to another thought or task, and then took that “moment” to come back. The research has also shown that for many volunteers, job efficiency(效率) drops while multitasking, compared to when they perform only one task at a time.
Multitasking is easy when at least one of the tasks requires little thought. Most people don’t find it difficult to eat and read the newspaper at the same time. However, when two or more attention-requiring tasks are tried at the same time, people sometimes make mistakes.
We often don’t remember things as well when we’re trying to manage several details at the same time. We may not notice new information coming in, so it never makes it into our memory. That is one of the main reasons we forget people’s names – even sometimes right after they have introduced themselves. Multitasking can also affect(影响) our relationships. If someone checks their e-mail while on the phone with a friend, they may appear absent-minded or disinterested. It can also cause that person to miss key information being passed on to them.
【1】Which of the following words has the closest meaning to “anxiety”?
A.Stress B.Development C.Death D.Confidence
【2】The writing purpose of this passage is to________.
A.describe the problems of multitasking B.discover the secrets of multitasking
C.tell the stories about multitasking D.explain the importance of multitasking
【3】What can we learn about multitasking?
A.It is a way of life and the only key to success. B.It can be done easily by smart people.
C.It helps build a better relationship between friends. D.It has a close connection to our brain.
【4】What can we infer(推断) from the passage?
A.Multitasking helps people remember things better.
B.More mistakes are made when tasks require little thought.
C.People get low job efficiency while managing several details at the same time.
D.People forgetting who to dial need to have a good rest.
25、Yi Xiaojing, 21, a student at Guangdong University, has a big family – her two parents, a younger brother and two younger sisters. Lin took her role as the “big sister” seriously. When her first sister was born, Yi took turns with her mom holding the baby late into the night. “I almost did everything that was supposed to be a parent’s job, but I felt proud of myself,” she said.
Not all Yi’s classmates shared her experiences because of the family planning policy (政策), a law that was carried out in China about forty years ago. But the situation is about to change. A new policy made on October 29 said all couples can now have two children.
The new policy is expected to help raise the population of China. Recently, China has been facing an aging population and labor shortages because of the low birth rate (比率).
The two-child policy may also be the gift for every only child. Researchers found that growing up with a brother or sister can have good influence on one’s mental health.
“Brothers and sisters do matter in unique ways. They give kids something that parents don’t.” Laura Walker, a professor from Beijing University, told China Daily. She noted that having a brother or a sister protects teenagers against loneliness, fear and so on.
Liu Hao, 20, from Shenzhen University, has a 2-year-younger sister. When her sister disagreed with parents over choosing a college major, she helped her to communicate with parents. “If necessary, I would always have her back,” said Liu. “The best part of having a sister is that you have a partner, friend and supporter throughout your life.”
But children with brothers or sisters also have to learn to understand and look after each other, said Laura.
【1】There are ________ children in Yi Xiaojing’s family.
A. three B. four C. five D. six
【2】The one-child policy caused some problems except ________.
A. the aging population
B. labor shortages
C. the population growth
D. the low birth ratewww.
【3】We can infer from the article that ________.
A.Yi xiaojing doesn’t like her sister
B. Liu Hao has a 17-year-old sister
C. Laura is against the two-child policy
D. The one-child policy is out of date now
【4】The best title for this article should be ________.
A. Brothers and sisters are good for us.
B. The family planning policy is bad.
C. The two-child policy helps a lot.
D. A new policy was made.
26、
Disneyland has always been the dream vacation for kids throughout the world. However, Shanghai Disneyland has recently caught people’s attention through a lawsuit(官司).
The suit was brought by a college student Wang, who is from East China University of Political Science and Law. She refused after being told to either throw away the snacks she had brought in the backpack or eat them up. Wang argued with the park security and then made phone calls to the police and to official hot lines like 12345 and 12315, however, none worked. In order to get into the park, she gave up the snacks, which were worth 46.3 yuan.
Wang brought the case to the People’s Court Pudong New Area, where the theme park is located. The case was heard on April 23. Shanghai Disneyland replied in August with its “no outside food” policy and said that the rule is “consistent(一致) with many other theme parks across China” and “guests are welcome to enjoy their own food and drinks outside the park”.
This is not the first time that Disney has been accused. In June last year, a lawyer Jun accused Shanghai Disneyland of overpriced food in the park. The next month, Liu Demin, a father accused the park of charging his ten-year-old son a full fare ticket instead of half price.
Disney has owned 6 theme park resorts all over the world. Three parks in America and France do not have such rules as “no outside food” policy, while the three in China and Japan, as Asian countries, don’t allow tourists to take in outside food. In addition, customers are not informed about the rule when they book park tickets on the computer. No tips are listed on the official website of Disney. People can only get to know the certain rule at the end of the page when they buy tickets through smart phones.
【1】In _________, customers can bring food and drinks into Disneyland.
