Question

19．Welcome to the world of multitasking-a place where the measure of a person is how many jobs they can perform at the same time．In fact，if experts are to be believed，multitasking is a disastrous idea．
One of the opponents of multitasking is Dr．Clifford Nass，a professor at Stanford University．"People who multitask frequently are less able to pay attention； they're worse at managing their memory．"he said．In his opinion，the loss that we get with multitasking is harmless in some situations，for example，part of doing business in the digital world：but you can't do serious work like writing，thinking or solving an important problem this way．You do worse even as you think you're doing better．All the time the research points to a simple fact：the brain cannot cope．When you stop midway through composing a report to check an email，you force your brain to stop and regroup．It is like pressing the pause button during a movie，meaning the film takes longer to watch．
And as for Dr．Nass，the problems extend beyond the brain．Young people who frequently multitask are not as socially and emotionally healthy as those who don't．They just feel more emotionally satisfied and the feeling is so good and they are bound to desire it again．Todd Oppenheimer，a writer said"We've become a very short-term society and don't reward people for taking a lot of time on something．"He fears we may end up losing the next generation of great thinkers．"It's really unfortunate because the long-term challenges of our world-environmental issues，financial issues-require people to think wisely about the long-term consequences of what they do．And it's no coincidence that the kind of people who do think long-term don't multitask．"

A．makes the performance emotionally affected only

Answer 1

分析 這是一篇科普文．研究人員發(fā)現(xiàn)，同時做很多事情的人做事不專一，不僅會導致事倍功半，而且還會影響人們的社交與情感健康．

解答 29-32 DBCA
29 D 細節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)for example，part of doing business in the digital world：but you can't do serious work like writing，thinking or solving an important problem this way．比如在數(shù)字化的世界里做生意（doing business in the digital world）是無害的，因此選D．文章說同時做很多事會影響我們在人際交往和情感方面的健康（A錯），會使我們記性更差（B錯），一位叫Todd的作家說這樣可能會使我們失去未來一代偉大的思想家（C錯）．
30 B 推理判斷題．根據(jù)Welcome to the world of multitasking-a place where the measure of a person is how many jobs they can perform at the same time．In fact，if experts are to be believed，multitasking is a disastrous idea．歡迎來到同時做很多事的世界，在這里，對一個人的衡量標準是他能同時開展多少項工作，這個想法實際上害人不淺，因此B項正確；從第二段可知A、C錯，因為multitasking有時是無害的，有時則會妨礙我們；第二段最后一句通過打比方的方式告訴我們，這樣會使事情做得更慢（D錯）．
31 C 推理判斷題．從本題四個選項的陳述看，A、B、D都是專心在做一件事，C項說辦公桌上放著各種沒有完工的項目的文書工作，這里的various unfinished projects屬于multitasking．故選C．
32 A 主旨大意題．全文通過斯坦福大學一位教授的話告訴我們，同時做很多事不僅不能提高工作效率，反而對我們的健康不利，因此A項"角色轉(zhuǎn)換越少，做的就越好"是本文的主題．故選A．

點評 本文是政治經(jīng)濟類閱讀理解．做這類題材閱讀理解時要求考生對文章通讀一遍，做題時結(jié)合原文和題目有針對性的找出相關(guān)語句進行仔細分析，結(jié)合選項選出正確答案．推理判斷題也是要在抓住關(guān)鍵句子的基礎上合理的分析才能得出正確答案，切忌胡亂猜測，一定要做到有理有據(jù)．
