26、gory for both sky and grass: xanh. For decades cognitive (认知) scientists have pointed to such examples as evidence that language largely determines how we see color. But new research with four-to six-month-old babies indicates that long before we learn language, we see up to five basic categories of

27、 color a finding that suggests a stronger biological element to perceive (感知) color than previously thought.The study, published recently in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences USA, tested the color-discrimination abilities of more than 170 British babies. Researchers at the Universi

28、ty of Sussex in England measured how long babies spent staring at color swatches, a system known as looking time. First babies were showed one swatch repeatedly until their looking time decreased a sign they had grown bored with it. Then the researchers showed them a different sample and noted their

29、 reaction. Longer looking times were explained to mean the babies considered the second sample to be a new color. Their increasing responses showed that they distinguished among five colors: red, green, blue, purple and yellow.The finding “suggests you come by nature to make color distinctions, but

30、given your culture and language, certain distinctions may or may not be used.” explains lead author Alice Skelton, a doctoral student at Sussex.The study systematically explored babies color perception, showing how we perceive colors before we have the words to describe them, says Angela M.

The results add a new challenge to the long nature-versus-nurture(先天与后天) debate and the so-called SapirWhorf hypothesis (假设) the idea that the way we see the world is shaped by

32、 language.In future work, Skelton and her colleagues are interested in testing babies from other cultures. “The way language and culture interact is a really interesting question,” she says. “We dont yet know the exact systems, but we do know how we start off.”28.

36、eding. We experience this tiredness in two ways: as start-up fatigue (疲惫) and performance fatigue. In the former case, we keep putting off a task because it has either too boring or too difficult. And the longer we delay it, the more tired we feel. Such start-up fatigue is very real, even if not act

37、ually physical, not something in our muscles and bones. The solution is obvious though perhaps not easy to apply: always handle the most difficult job first. Years ago, I was asked to write 102 essays on the great ideas of some famous authors. Applying my own rule, I determined to write them in alph

38、abetical (按字母顺序), never letting myself leave out a tough idea. And I always started the days work with the difficult task of essay-writing. Experience proved that the rule works. Performance fatigue is more difficult to handle. Though willing to get started, we cannot seem to do the job right. Its d

39、ifficulties appear so great that, however hard we work, we fail again and again. In such a situation, I work as hard as I can then let the unconscious take over. When planning Encyclopaedia Britannica (大英百科全书), I had to create a table of contents based on the topics of its articles. Nothing like thi

40、s had ever been done before, and day after day I kept coming up with solutions, but none of them worked. My fatigue became almost unbearable. One day, mentally exhausted, I wrote down all the reasons why this problem could not be solved. I tried to convince myself that the trouble was with the probl

41、em itself, not with me. Then, I sat back in an easy chair and fell asleep. An hour later, I woke up suddenly with the solution clearly in mind. In the weeks that followed, the solution which had come up in my unconscious mind provided correct at every step. Though I worked as hard as before, I felt

42、no fatigue. Success was now as exciting as failure had been depressing. Human beings, I believe must try to succeed. Success, then, means never feeling tired.32.

43、nd doing to prevent start-up fatigue?A. Writing essays in strict order. B. Building up physical strength.C. Leaving out the toughest ideas. D. Dealing with the hardest task first.34.

46、ate the present moment, you should also find a balance, allowing yourself to feel grateful. Dependable. Choose someone who you are sure will show up for every scheduled workout or who will call you if they cant make it. It is a drain (消耗) on your valuable energy especially before training to have to

47、 constantly remind your partner. 37 Mindfulness is also about paying attention to your breath. Breathing is a vital bodily function that we often do not notice throughout the day.

48、ythm.
