20、But I didnt always feel this way. In my early days, when I weighed 240 pounds, I ran like everyone was watching and judging. If I was on a run and saw a car approaching, Id stop and pretend I was looking for something Id lost. I bought the high-tech gear and clothes that I thought would make people

I couldnt help but smile at my own illusion of self-importance.Thats when I realized I had been running for every reason ex

30、ard people outside of work, says study co-author Shannon Taylor, a management professor at the University of Central Floridas College of Business.The new study backs up this idea, but offers a bit of good news as well: Employees who averaged more than 10,500 steps a day or burned at least 2, 100 cal

31、ories were less likely to mistreat their cohabitants than those who averaged fewer steps of burned fewer calories.The findings also revealed that when employees felt they had a bad nights sleep because of work issues, they were more likely to be grouchy at home. “When youre tired, youre either less

32、able or less motivated to regulate yourself”, says co-author Larissa Barber, a professor of psychology at Northern Illinois University.Physical activity seems to counterbalance poor sleepy, Barber says, because it promotes healthy brain functions needed to properly regulate emotions and behaviors. “

33、This study suggests that high amounts of exercise can be at least one way to improve the situations brought by sleep troubles that lead to negative behaviors at home,” she says.Barber acknowledges that finding time to work out and get a full nights sleep can be difficult when work pressure is mounti

34、ng, and that often, job stress can be directly related to sleep quality. But she says making the effort to burn some extra calories and blow off some steam can be worth it. “Its not only good for you”, says Taylor, but it can benefit the people you live with as well.1、What does the underlined word “

But even more important are different concepts of time and approac

45、hes to time in different cultures.People from the USA as well as other North Americans believe “Time is money”. This value of time is rooted in their ancestors. Early in the 17th century, their ancestors arrived on the Atlantic coast, a new, undeveloped land. To survive in the tough environment, the

46、y had to struggle day and night. Time meant so much to them that they had not even one second to waste. After decades of struggle, they developed the value of efficient use of time and passed it down. Thus far, the Americans are still eager to finish things quickly and are impatient with too reflect

47、ive(深思熟虑的) people.In some countries, the American work style of speeding everything up will have no significance. In the Arab East, the more important you are, the faster service you get. Close relatives take absolute priority; non-relatives are kept waiting. In the Middle East, a deadline, which is

48、 often established to show the degree of urgency or importance of work, will do nothing but stop the Middle Easterners from working, because they consider it rude and overly demanding.Another aspect reflecting different concepts of time is the classification of monochronic-time and polychronic-time

49、by Edward T Hall. People from monchronic(共时性的) cultures, such as the Germans, the Austrians, the Swiss and the Americans, do only one important thing at a time. In polychromic(多元时间模式的) cultures, people such as Arab, Asians and Latin Americans take an entirely opposite approach. They do several thing

50、s at once. Time commitments, e.g. deadlines, schedules, are taken rather casually and changed often and easily. Miscommuication will arise when people from two cultures contact. Charlies Hawkins, a U.S. teacher, told me that many a time his appointments with Indians were interrupted constantly, not

51、only by private phone calls, but also by long conversations with other people and even the neighbors children, which displeased and even annoyed him.1、Why did the ancestors of the North Americans believe “Time is money”?AThey had to work efficiently to survive.BThey got the idea from their past gene

52、rations.CThey didnt like to deal with reflective people.DThey formed the habit of finishing work ahead of time.2、What can be concluded from Paragraph 3?ADeadlines will make American people angry.BIn the Arab East, youd better speed everything up.CMiddle Easterners cant deal with demanding work.DPeop

53、le from the Arab East attach importance to relationship.3、What can we learn about people from monochronic cultures?AThey tend to interrupt others constantly.BThey cant tolerate lateness or interruptions.CThey are more likely to change their schedules.DThey like to schedule several activities at the
