Hes not alone. According to a

11、 recent poll, one third of the 3,000 people surveyed said they were “coasting” at work. This may come as a surprise in an age when so many people spend so much time complaining about how busy they are. But most of this talk about busyness is nonsense. According to a study by researchers at Oxford Un

12、iversity, we do not, in fact, spend more time working than we have in the past. On some measures, the amount we work has gone down. Instead, many people just have jobs filled with tasks that dont really need to be done.The way we look at coasting has radically changed. In the past, being relaxed and

13、 not burdened with too much work within your organisation was a sign of status. Now, being extremely busy shows you are important. If you are not extremely overburdened, then you are seen as a slacker, a lazy person.This does not make sense. Most people are not as busy as they say they are. In fact,

14、 most pressing tasks at work are often unrelated to productivity. Many busy people are actually overburdened with telling others how busy they are. Being overly-focused on your job may make you feel important, but its likely to annoy friends, co-workers and your family. Whats more, being super-busy

15、all the time is not good for you. A Cornell University study found that people who are overburdened with work tend to have a worse sense of wellbeing than those who are more relaxed. The researchers also found that being super-busy is bad for your career. Those who reported working very intensely we

16、re associated with poorer career outcomes.So, perhaps coasters are not a drag on productivity. Maybe they have worked out that the secret to a productive and healthy life is not being too busy, and certainly not talking continuously about how busy you are. We should remember Bertrand Russells adage:

17、 “One of the symptoms of an approaching nervous breakdown is the belief that ones work is terribly important.”1、What can we infer from the findings of the Oxford University study?APeople have a false impression about how busy they are at work.BLess busy employees have a greater likelihood of promoti

18、on.COne third of employees dont consider themselves to be busy.DPeople overburdened at work are likely to feel more energised.2、In the 19th century which of these people would probably have been the LEAST busy in their job?AA bank clerk.BA bank owner.CAn office cleaner.DAn office secretary.3、Why mig

19、ht “coasters” actually be successful in their work?AThey do not feel threatened by a challenging task.BThey work more co-operatively with their colleagues.CThey are able to focus on the most important and necessary tasks.DThey are often more intelligent and able to complete their work faster.4、Which

20、 of the following best summarizes the authors attitude?AHe expresses no personal opinion about the topic.BHe thinks that lazy people are in fact the best workers.CHe is sympathetic towards difficulties of super-busy workers.DHe believes that busyness at work does not equal effectiveness.22（8分）At fir

21、st sight, Alma Deutscher, a twelve-year-old girl from England appears to be like any other typical pre-teen. She loves to skip rope, read and play with her younger sister. But this modest youngster, who composed her first musical work at age six, first short opera at age seven, and first full-length

22、 opera based on Cinderella at age ten, is anything but average. Though her parents downplay her extraordinary talent, young Alma is being described as “l(fā)ittle Mozart” by the music worldAlmas operatic take on the classic fairy tale, which she began writing at age eight, has a slight twist. Her Cinder

23、ella is a musician who meets her Prince Charming through a song. “In my Cinderella, she sings the beginning of a ballad - but at midnight she flees. Eventually, the prince finds her after asking all the maidens of the land to sing the end of the ballad.”The opera was first performed in Vienna, Austr

24、alia on December 29, 2016, where the then eleven-year-old skillfully switched between the piano and the violin and receives enthusiastic reviews. The young genius has since performed two new piano works, once in Australia and the other in China.While this may appear to be a lot for someone so young,

25、 Alma is not worried. She says, “of course I have to work hard. But all children have to work hard for exams, and at least when I work hard, I work hard for something incredibly exciting, like seeing my whole opera put on stage.Almas musical talent first came to light before she could even talk. Her

26、 parents recall that as an 18-month-old toddler, she was able to hum a pitch perfect version of the childrens rhymeTwinkle Twinkle Little Star.However, Almas abilities only gained international attention in 2012, after a family friend posted a video online comparing her to Mozart. The family was sud

27、denly swamped with media requested and Alma became an overnight star, dubbed “l(fā)ittle Mozart”. This nickname makes her parents unhappy because they believe it puts added pressure on the young girl. They would instead prefer her to be called “a composer and musician”.Alma does not want to be compared

28、to the famous artist either, saying, “There was only one Mozart, and I prefer to be little Alma.” Regardless of what she calls herself, the twelve-year-old is changing the world of music forever!1、What do we know about Alma Deutscher?AShe has shown great musical talent from a young age.BShe comes fr

Some memory sup

32、erstars compete in Olympic-like World Memory Championships. These mental athletes, or MAs for short, can memorize names of dozens of strangers in a few minutes or any poem handed them. Ed Cooke, a 24-year-old MA, explains they see themselves as participants rescuing the long-lost art of memory train

33、ing. These techniques existed not to recall useless information, but to cut into the brain basic text and ideas.A study in the journal Nature examined eight people who finished near the top of the World Memory Championships. The scientists examined whether their brains were fundamentally different f

34、rom everyone elses or whether they were simply making better use of memorizing abilities we all possess. They put the MAs and control subjects into brain scanners and had them memorize numbers and photographs. The result surprised everyone. The brains of the MAs and those of the control subjects wer

35、e indistinguishable. On every test, the MAs scored in the normal range. However, when the scientists examined what part of the brain was used during a memory activity, they found the MAs relied more heavily on areas in the brain involved in spatial memory.MAs offer an explanation: anything can be fi

36、xed upon our memories and kept in order by constructing a building in the imagination and filling it with pictures of what needs to be recalled. Dating back to the fifth century, the building is called a memory palace. Even as late as the fourteenth century, when there were copies of any text, schol

37、ars needed to remember what was read to them. Reading to remember requires a different technique than speed reading. If something is made memorable, it has to be repeated. Until relatively recently, people read only a few books intensively (細(xì)致地) again and again, usually aloud. Today we read extensiv

38、ely, usually only once and without continuous focus.So the great difference is the ability to create impressive pictures in mind and to do it quickly. Using memory palaces, MAs create memorized pictures. For example, recombine the pictures to form unforgettable scenes such as the ways through a town

39、. One competitor used his own body parts to help him memorize a 57,000-word dictionary.Anyone who wishes to train the mind needs first to create fantastical palaces in the imagination. Then they should cut each building into cubbyholes for memories. In a short amount of time, they will notice improv

To keep the skill sharp, MAs deliberately empty their palaces after competitions, so they can reuse them and they recommend that beginners do the same.1、We can learn from Paragraph 2 that a mental athlete _.Aowns a brain that is larger in sizeBshows a gift in mental ab

Her daughter, Emily Sims, wasnt so keen on the idea; it seemed unwise for an old woman to enter

51、 the real estate market. And, as the old saying goes, you can never really go home again. But the mom and daughter often drove from their current town of Greenville, South Carolina, to Katherines beloved old home in nearby Gaffney. While admiring the charming one-story dwelling she was born in, Kath

52、erine would say, “Id like to have that house back.”O(jiān)ne day, as Emily went down the dollhouse of her local store, inspiration struck: Her mother could have her house back in replica（復(fù)制品）. Emilys friend Thomas McAbee connected her with Ray Meyers, a local retired dentist with a talent for woodworking.

53、 Ray paid multiple visits to the original home, taking precise measurements and collected details with the help of the current homeowners.The replica home and the amazing story behind it deserved an impressive display. Emily arranged a surprise party at which the miniature （微小模型）and Katherine would

54、be honored. But keeping the big secret about the little house was a tough task. Ray would ask me questions a- bout the house,” Emily says of the planning process, “The last time I was inside was when I was a teenager, so I couldnt remember everything. I would visit with mom and start a conversation

55、where I would say, Oh, by the way, do you remember and ask her something about the house. She would give details from her memory about the color and the layout. She would tell me exactly what something looked like or where it was in the house.”O(jiān)n August 28, 2017, Emily gathered 40 friends and family

56、 members at her house. The party- goers waited while Emilys daughter-in-law, Christie, took Katherine out to lunch. After the special birthday meal, Christie brought Katherine to Emilys house. “When we went inside, there was a house full of people singing Happy Birthday to me,” Katherine says. “I ca
