26、On an island in northern Norway, the sun doesn’t set from May 18 right through to July 26. The locals, having spent the long polar night from November to January, when the sun doesn’t rise at all, make the most of these months, with no regard to conventional timekeeping. The island intends to exchange its watches for flower garlands (花环) and declare itself the world’s first time-free zone (地区).
“There’s constant daylight, and we act accordingly,” says islander Kjell Ove Hveding in a statement. “In the middle of the night, which citizens might call ‘2 am’, you can spot children playing soccer, people painting their houses or mowing their lawns (草坪), and teens going for a swim.”
Now they want to make it official. Islanders gathered at a town hall meeting to sign a petition (请愿) for a time-free zone and on June 13, Hveding met with a Norwegian member of parliament (国会) to hand over the locals’ signatures and to discuss the practical and legal challenges.
“To us, getting this in writing would simply mean formalizing something we have been practicing for generations,” he says.
Islanders hope to be free of traditional opening hours and to introduce flexibility in school and working hours. Fishing and tourism are the main industries on this island with a population of little more than 300 people. Local fisher and women often spend days on the ocean for their catch, with little regard to timetable.
It’s clear that they mean business. When visitors cross the bridge to the island from the airland, they aren’t greeted with padlocks (symbolizing love locks) like on similar bridges worldwide. The bridge is covered with watches, as people prepare for entry to the land time forgot.
【1】What do the islanders normally do at midnight from May 18 to July 26?
A．Struggle with strong light.
B．Sleep like outside people.
C．Turn watches into flowers.
D．Do daily work or have fun.
【2】According to Hveding, the islanders’ living a life free of time ________.
A．is difficult to describe
B．proves practical and legal
C．is a new kind of lifestyle
D．has been a long tradition
【3】What does the author mean by “they mean business” underlined in the last paragraph?
A．The islanders are serious about being free of time.
B．The islanders intend to treat tourism as business.
C．Visitors are ready to enter a time-free island
D．Visitors actually prefer watches on bridges.
【4】What is the main idea of the text?
A．Islanders in Norway have been free from time.
B．An island wants to be a time-free zone officially.
C．It’s time to lead a life without the limit of time.
D．An island won’t be open to the world any longer.

The servant was not angry, but smiled. Then the young man put brushes in his bed on Tuesday. The servant got into bed and hit the brushes with his feet. He was afraid. The young man laughed loudly again. Again the servant was not angry, but smiled.

28、Multitasking—doing several things at a time—was once applauded as the best way to work. But does it actually help you get things done, or does it make you less effective?
【1】 If you can actually do two or more things at one time, that clearly saves time.【2】 And it can fill time that would otherwise be spent poorly.
However, a growing body of research shows that multitasking is not as productive as it appears. It turns out that when most people multitask, they don't actually focus on more than one thing at a time. 【3】But changing your focus constantly uses mental energy that could be spent working. It also causes you to take longer and make more mistakes. In addition, it creates stress. People who try to multitask often end up feeling more anxious and less peaceful than people who don’t.
【4】 A very small group of people—about two percent of the population—excel at multitasking. These people, called supertaskers, are able to work on several things at once without their performance suffering. But experts caution: supertaskers are very rare. The majority of people who think multitasking makes them more productive are fooling themselves.
If you do want to multitask, productivity experts recommend doing it carefully. 【5】.
A．There are some exceptions to the no-multitasking rule.
B．Instead they switch back and forth between concentrating on two or more tasks.
C．Doing things one at a time usually helps people produce better work .
D．To some people, the advantages of multitasking seem obvious .
E．Multitasking actually works against the goal of getting things done.
F．It might also make you feel productive, which can in turn make you happy.
G．Pair a mentally challenging task with a physical task you don’t have to think about.
29、How adversity(逆境) makes you stronger
When faced with a crisis, we find it difficult to imagine the experience will eventually lead to some type of growth. 【1】 Research shows that past adversities can help you become more powerful in three ways.
【2】 Post-unpleasant growth is the experience of positive change after going through a significantly stressful event. Researchers have discovered two common themes that people tend to report after experiencing a stressful event: spiritual growth and enhanced personal strength.
They build self-efficacy. Self-efficacy is the confidence in your ability to overcome challenges and succeed. I once took part in a program with soldiers, where I should dance in front of hundreds of audience. When I danced, I had a panic attack and had to hang onto my colleague’s arm to make it through. What was odd was my brain’s reaction to the exercise. While it was a truly unpleasant experience, I survived. 【3】
They help you treat stress as a challenge. 【4】 Some people view stress as a threat, while others are able to view it as a challenge. With a challenge response? you get additional energy and feel focused instead of being fearful.
【5】 Your past struggles, even small ones during an adversity can help you step out of the trouble you’re faced with.
A．They help you find the good.
B．They can bring growth after sufferings.
C．People have a healthier physical response to stress.
D．If your world feels out of control right now, just stay relaxed.
E．The fact is that we can become stronger after a difficult situation.
F．How you think about stress matters extremely in terms of how you process it.
G．That made my brain think about what other tough challenges I could conquer.
