As we knw, diseases such as clds r flu can mve frm ne persn t anther. But d yu knw that feelings, like being stressed (压力), can be passed n t? Smetimes we feel very busy and stressed nt nly because f ur wn wrk but als because f the feelings and prblems f peple we are clse t.
The psychlgist Stephanie Prestn frm the University f Michigan led his team t design a study. They wanted t check if stress was passed n. In the study, peple were asked t give a speech t a grup f watchers. Thse watchers didn’t shw any feelings during the speech. That made the speakers even mre stressed than if they gt bad cmments (评价). After a while, even the researchers started feeling stressed frm just watching the speeches. This made them curius, s they decided t study mre. They lked at spit samples (唾液样本) t see the stress hrmne—crtisl (皮质醇激素). While speakers were stressed and had a lt f crtisl, watchers were stressed t and had a lt f crtisl as well. They named this effect (效果) “physilgical resnance”. It means the speakers’ stress was passed n t the watchers.
Thugh they prve that stress can mve frm ne persn t anther, there is still ne questin. Studies have lked int the speakers’ vices and faces, but they haven’t figured ut hw smene’s behavir causes anther’s stress.

Have yu ever had the fllwing experiences? Yu are trying t fcus n yur hmewrk while chatting with yur friend nline at the same time; r maybe yu are attending a lecture while als reading a bk that yu have brught alng…If the answer is YES, well, yu are “multitasking”.
Multitasking means dealing with mre than ne task at the same time r switching (转换) between tasks quickly. While it seems like an efficient (效率高的) way t get mre things dne in less time, studies suggest ur brains might nt be as gd at multitasking as we think.
Firstly, multitasking can make us less fcused and lwer the quality (质量) f ur wrk. When multitasking, ur attentin gets split (分开，分散). This means we might make mre mistakes and nt d ur jbs very well. Fr example, studying while chatting nline can make it harder t understand r remember what yu’re learning; meanwhile, yu prbably wn’t be able t fully enjy that pleasant cnversatin either.
Besides, we tend t wrk less efficiently when multitasking. Studies have shwn that it takes ur brains mre time t switch between tasks, which cntradicts the belief that multitasking saves time. Experts call it “task switch csts”. We meet “task switch csts” because f the increased mental demand (脑力需求) as ur mind jumps frm ne thing t anther.
Lastly, multitasking may hurt peple’s health, bth physically and mentally. Fr teenagers, their brains are busy frming imprtant neural (神经的) cnnectins. Splitting attentin t ften might have a serius, lng-term, negative influence n hw these cnnectins frm. Mrever, it culd lead t anxiety and a feeling f being cnstantly behind.
Hwever, des it mean we shuld never ever try multitasking? The gd news is, sme frms f multitasking are easier t realize than thers, and here are sme suggestins n hw t chse the right tasks fr multitasking:
Try pairing up cmplex (difficult thus needs full attentin and effrt) and autmatic (dne with7ut thinking) tasks: Fr example, yu can think abut a t-d list (cmplex) while jgging utdrs (autmatic), fr the latter desn’t need much mental pwer.
It’s als a gd idea t rank (分等级) tasks based n levels f imprtance first. Dn’t chse very imprtant nes t multitask; instead, try thse that dn’t need s much attentin. Save yur fcused attentin fr tasks that matter mst.
Knwing yur limits (极限) is als necessary. Peple are different, s yu shuld knw yur wn mental and physical limits when multitasking. If yu find the quality f yur wrk drps r feel t nervus, yu prbably shuld stp multitasking.
30. Which f the fllwing is NOT an example f multitasking?
A. Preparing a meal while watching an interesting talk shw nline.
B. Attending a meeting while ding nline shpping with yur phne.
C. Reading a bk while thinking abut what the passage tries t say.
D. Driving n the rad while listening t sft music n the radi.
31. Accrding t the passage, if yu “cntradict” smething, it means ________.
A. yu finally find the truth abut smething after careful research
B. yu hld the ppsite pinin r believe smething is wrng
C. yu have t accept smething althugh yu are unwilling t
D. yu persnally dislike smething because yu are nt interested
32. Accrding t the passage, the writer prbably agrees that ________.
A. multitasking helps the brain frm imprtant neural cnnectins
B. ding difficult and easy tasks at the same time always wrks well
C. imprtant tasks need mre attentin and shuld be dne first
D. it’s imprtant fr peple t knw when t stp multitasking
33. What is the main idea f the passage?
A. The misunderstanding abut multitasking and the reasns why.
B. The meaning f multitasking and hw different peple shuld d it.
C. The imprtance f multitasking and hw t chse the right tasks.
D. The pssible disadvantages f multitasking and the right ways t d it.

【解析】
【导语】本文阐述多任务处理的概念及可能出现的缺点和多任务处理的正确的方法。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Multitasking means dealing with mre than ne task at the same time r switching between tasks quickly.”可知，多任务处理是指同时处理多个任务或在任务之间快速切换，所以“一边看书，一边思考文章要说什么。”属于同一种任务。故选C。
【31题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第二段“While it seems like an efficient way t get mre things dne in less time,” 可知，多任务处理似乎是能在更短的时间内完成更多事情；结合第四段“Studies have shwn that it takes ur brains mre time t switch between tasks,” 可知，大脑在任务之间切换需要更多的时间；这二种观点是相反的，所以此处指“持有相反的观点或认为有什么不对劲”。故选B。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“…If yu find the quality f yur wrk drps r feel t nervus, yu prbably shuld stp multitasking.”可知， 如果发现工作质量下降或感到过于紧张，可能应该停止多任务处理，所以作者可能赞同让人们知道何时停止多任务处理很重要。故选D。
33题详解】
主旨大意题。本文阐述多任务处理的概念及可能出现的缺点和多任务处理的正确的方法，故选D。

In the study, peple were asked t give a speech t a grup f watchers. Thse watchers didn’t shw any feelings during the speech. That made the speakers even mre stressed than if they gt bad cmments (评价). After a while, even the researchers started feeling stressed frm just watching the speeches. This made them curius, s they decided t study mre. They lked at spit samples (唾液样本) t see the stress hrmne—crtisl (皮质醇激素). While speakers were stressed and had a lt f crtisl, watchers were stressed t and had a lt f crtisl as well. They named this effect (效果) “physilgical resnance”. It means the speakers’ stress was passed n t the watchers.
Thugh they prve that stress can mve frm ne persn t anther, there is still ne questin. Studies have lked int the speakers’ vices and faces, but they haven’t figured ut hw smene’s behavir causes anther’s stress.

If ur neighbr seems stressed, we shuld watch ut as it might affect (影响) us t. This ability t sense stress cmes frm ur lng histry f living in grups.

S quickly sptting (发现) stress in thers can help us. It keeps us away frm prblems befre they get wrse.
27. Hw did Prestn’s team find that stress culd mve frm ne persn t anther?
A. By lking at faces.B. By listening t vices.

D
Have yu ever had the fllwing experiences? Yu are trying t fcus n yur hmewrk while chatting with yur friend nline at the same time; r maybe yu are attending a lecture while als reading a bk that yu have brught alng…If the answer is YES, well, yu are “multitasking”.
Multitasking means dealing with mre than ne task at the same time r switching (转换) between tasks quickly. While it seems like an efficient (效率高的) way t get mre things dne in less time, studies suggest ur brains might nt be as gd at multitasking as we think.
Firstly, multitasking can make us less fcused and lwer the quality (质量) f ur wrk. When multitasking, ur attentin gets split (分开，分散). This means we might make mre mistakes and nt d ur jbs very well. Fr example, studying while chatting nline can make it harder t understand r remember what yu’re learning; meanwhile, yu prbably wn’t be able t fully enjy that pleasant cnversatin either.
Besides, we tend t wrk less efficiently when multitasking. Studies have shwn that it takes ur brains mre time t switch between tasks, which cntradicts the belief that multitasking saves time. Experts call it “task switch csts”. We meet “task switch csts” because f the increased mental demand (脑力需求) as ur mind jumps frm ne thing t anther.
Lastly, multitasking may hurt peple’s health, bth physically and mentally. Fr teenagers, their brains are busy frming imprtant neural (神经的) cnnectins. Splitting attentin t ften might have a serius, lng-term, negative influence n hw these cnnectins frm. Mrever, it culd lead t anxiety and a feeling f being cnstantly behind.
Hwever, des it mean we shuld never ever try multitasking? The gd news is, sme frms f multitasking are easier t realize than thers, and here are sme suggestins n hw t chse the right tasks fr multitasking:
Try pairing up cmplex (difficult thus needs full attentin and effrt) and autmatic (dne with7ut thinking) tasks: Fr example, yu can think abut a t-d list (cmplex) while jgging utdrs (autmatic), fr the latter desn’t need much mental pwer.
It’s als a gd idea t rank (分等级) tasks based n levels f imprtance first. Dn’t chse very imprtant nes t multitask; instead, try thse that dn’t need s much attentin. Save yur fcused attentin fr tasks that matter mst.
Knwing yur limits (极限) is als necessary. Peple are different, s yu shuld knw yur wn mental and physical limits when multitasking. If yu find the quality f yur wrk drps r feel t nervus, yu prbably shuld stp multitasking.
30. Which f the fllwing is NOT an example f multitasking?
A. Preparing a meal while watching an interesting talk shw nline.
B. Attending a meeting while ding nline shpping with yur phne.
C. Reading a bk while thinking abut what the passage tries t say.
D. Driving n the rad while listening t sft music n the radi.
31. Accrding t the passage, if yu “cntradict” smething, it means ________.
A. yu finally find the truth abut smething after careful research
B. yu hld the ppsite pinin r believe smething is wrng
C. yu have t accept smething althugh yu are unwilling t
D. yu persnally dislike smething because yu are nt interested
32. Accrding t the passage, the writer prbably agrees that ________.
A. multitasking helps the brain frm imprtant neural cnnectins
B. ding difficult and easy tasks at the same time always wrks well
C. imprtant tasks need mre attentin and shuld be dne first
D. it’s imprtant fr peple t knw when t stp multitasking

【导语】本文阐述多任务处理的概念及可能出现的缺点和多任务处理的正确的方法。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Multitasking means dealing with mre than ne task at the same time r switching between tasks quickly.”可知，多任务处理是指同时处理多个任务或在任务之间快速切换，所以“一边看书，一边思考文章要说什么。”属于同一种任务。故选C。
【31题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第二段“While it seems like an efficient way t get mre things dne in less time,” 可知，多任务处理似乎是能在更短的时间内完成更多事情；结合第四段“Studies have shwn that it takes ur brains mre time t switch between tasks,” 可知，大脑在任务之间切换需要更多的时间；这二种观点是相反的，所以此处指“持有相反的观点或认为有什么不对劲”。故选B。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“…If yu find the quality f yur wrk drps r feel t nervus, yu prbably shuld stp multitasking.”可知， 如果发现工作质量下降或感到过于紧张，可能应该停止多任务处理，所以作者可能赞同让人们知道何时停止多任务处理很重要。故选D。
