Slow down, multitaskers

Think you can walk, drive, take phone calls, e – mail and listen to music at the same time? Well, New York′s new law says you can′t. And you′ll be fined $ 100 if you do it on a New York City street.

The law went into force last month, following the conclusion of a recent research that a shocking number of accidents are relevant to people using electronic gadgets (小玩意兒) when crossing the street.

Who′s to blame? Scientists say that our multitasking abilities are limited. “We are under the impression that our brain can do more than it often can,” says Rene Marois, a neuroscientist in Tennessee. “But a core limitation is the inability to concentrate on two things at once.”

The young are often considered the great multitaskers, but a research suggests this perception is open to question. A group of 18 – to 21 – year – olds and a group of 35 – to 39 – year – olds were given 90 seconds to translate images into numbers, using a simple code. The younger group did 10 percent better than the older group           . But when both groups were interrupted by a phone call or an instant message, the older group matched the younger group in speed and accuracy.

It is difficult to measure the productivity lost by multitaskers. But it is probably a lot. Jonathan Spira, chief analyst at Basex, a business – research firm, estimates the cost of interruptions to the American economy at nearly $ 650 billion a year. The estimate is based on surveys with office workers. The surveys concluded that 28 percent of the worker′s time was spent on interruptions and recovery time before they returned to their main tasks.

第一節(jié) 閱讀表達

閱讀下面短文并回答問題，然后將答案寫到答題卡相應(yīng)的位置上(請注意問題后的詞數(shù)要求)。

【1】‘Kung Hei Fat Choi!’ That’s a phrase that has been heard many times in London’s Chinatown over the last few days. Why? Because it’s Chinese New Year, and the UK’s Chinese community are celebrating the Year of the Dragon.

    【2】This year the celebrations which include more than 100 events have been more spectacular (壯觀的)than ever with more than 200,000 people gathering to watch a huge parade of lions, dragons, drums, and ribbon and fan dancers. The procession made its way from Chinatown to Trafalgar Square, the very heart of London. Meanwhile, London’s museums, art galleries and theatres are running special China-themed seasons.

    【3】London has a proud history of multiculturalism, and the Chinese community is one of the oldest in the city. Chinese immigrants first came to London in the mid 19th Century, _____________________seamen involved in the tea trade via Canton. For that reason Cantonese is still spoken more widely in the UK than Mandarin.

    【4】A more recent wave of immigration took place in the 1960s when many workers came from Hong Kong to find work in the flourishing restaurant business. One part of the central London neighborhood of Soho became synonymous with Chinese restaurants and began to be known as Chinatown.

    【5】Today more than 60,000 people of Chinese descent live in London which means that there are plenty of people to conduct the New Year festivities.

    【6】Much of this has been organized through partnerships between Chinese community groups and the Mayor of London’s office. Indeed, London’s Mayor has been an outspoken advocate of strengthening ties between the UK and China. In his Chinese New Year speech he said, “To everyone in China, think of London as your second home.”

【7】So whether you are in London, Beijing or Hong Kong, have a happy Chinese New Year.
