Decades of data, incl

27、uding a more recent Gallup study, characterizes the US as one of the most geographically mobile countries in the world. “About one in four US adults(24 percent) has reported moving within the country in the past five years.” the reported noted. With the exception of Finns(23 percent) and Norwegians(

28、22 percent), Americans move considerably more than their European peers.Though some may move for love or family, the major reason why Americans choose to move around is, unsurprisingly, related to work. Citing data from the Current Population Survey, a post on the blog of the New York Fed noted that

29、 between 1998 and 2013, “slightly more than half of interstate(州际的) migrants said they moved for employmentrelated reasonsa category that includes moves undertaken for new jobs, job transfers, and easier commutes(通勤).”The seeking of opportunity, particularly for an immigrant nation, is a national my

30、thology(神话) as well as an emotional attachment to work. A new working paper analyzed by Ben Steverman at Bloomberg suggests that workers in the US now “put in almost 25 percent more hours than Europeans” in a given year. This figure has steadily risen since the 1970s, when the hours logged by worker

31、s in Western Europe and the US were roughly the same.There are, of course, some internal factors. The US is much vaster than most European countries, plus it boasts(拥有) a common language. It is considered to be a sign of an efficient labor market that US workers can be persuaded to move to regions w

32、here there is a steady growth in jobs, such as the Sun Belt in recent years. And while American workers often have fewer labor protections than their European counterparts, as a report by the World Bank noted in 2012, American “labor laws give employers the power to fire, hire, or relocate(重新安置) wor

33、kers according to their needs”， a flexibility that is thought to aid economic growth. The World Band report added that the occupation of the average US employee in 2006 was 4 years, compared to 10 years in the European Union.Nevertheless, while Americans remain excessively mobile, FaithKarahan and D

34、arious Li at the New York Fed are the latest to note that US workers are moving around less than before. During the 1980s, 3 percent of workingage Americans relocated to a different state each year; that figure had been cut in half by 2010. “While part of the decline can be attributed to the Great R

35、ecession，” the authors suggest, “this_phenomenon took place over the course of several decades and is not necessarily related to the economic conditions.”So what accounts for this phenomenon? A roundup of theories by Brad Plumer at The Washington Post included the aging of the US workforce, the furt

36、her rise of twoincome households, the burdens of real estate, evolving workplace culture, as well as the flat line of wages, which makes moving away for a job, on average, a less rewarding financial proposition.Karahan and Li put much stock in the effects of an aging workforce, to which they attribu

37、te at least half of the decline in interstate migration. “In short, a young individual today is moving less than a young person did in the 1980s because of the higher presence of older workers，” they write, suggesting that employers have shifted their employment tactics(策略) to adapt to the changing

38、demographics(人口统计数据) of the workforce. Needless to say, movies about this era in American life, in which fewer people set out to start lives in wideranging places, will probably be much less exciting.1、According to the passage, in the past five years, Americans have moved _.Arelatively less than the

39、 BritishBless frequently than ItaliansCslightly more than NorwegiansDconsiderably more than Finns2、What can we infer from Paragraphs 2 and 3?AAmericans choose to move mainly for work and family.BAmericans have a very strong interest in work.CAmericans invested more time in work than Europeans in 197

40、5.DAmericans tended to move to Europe between 1998 and 2013.3、Which of the following is NOT the reason why American workers move more than their European peers?AThere is a common language in the US.BThe US is much vaster than most European countries.CAmerican labor laws give employers more freedom t

Yet among all those distractions, you can tune your attention to just one voice from many. This ability is what

44、 researchers call the “cocktail-party effect”.Scientists at the University of California in San Francisco have found where that sound-editing process occurs in the brain in the auditory cortex (听觉皮层) just behind the ear, not in areas of higher thought. The auditory cortex boosts some sounds and turn

45、s down others so that when the signal reaches the higher brain, “its as if only one person was speaking alone,” says investigator Edward Chang.These findings, published in the journal Nature last week, explain why people arent very good at multitasking our brains are wired for “selective attention”

46、and can focus on only one thing at a time. That inbornabilityhas helped humanssurvivein a world buzzing with visual and auditory stimulation (刺激). But we keeptryingto push the limits with multitasking, sometimes withtragic(悲剧的) consequences. Drivers talking on cellphones, for example, are four times

47、 as likely to get intotrafficaccidents as those who arent.Many of those accidents are due to “inattentional blindness”, in which people can, in effect, turn a blind eye to things they arent focusing on. The more attention a task demands, the less attention we can pay to other things in our field of

48、vision. Images land on our retinas (视网膜) and are either boosted or played down in the visual cortex before being passed to the brain, just as the auditory cortex filters sounds, as shown in the Nature study last week. “Its a push-pullrelationship the more we focus on one thing, the less we can focus

49、 on others,” says Diane M. Beck, anassociateprofessor ofpsychologyat the University of Illinois.Studies over the pastdecadeat the University of Utah show that drivers talking on hands-free cellphones are just as influenced as those on hands-held phones because it is the conversation, not the device,

50、 that is distracting their attention. Those talking on any kind of cellphone react more slowly and miss more traffic signals than other motorists.Some people can train themselves to pay extra attention to things that are important like police officers learn to scan crowds for faces and conductors ca

51、n listen for individual instruments within theorchestraas a whole. Many more think they can effectively multitask, but are actually shifting their attention rapidly between two things and not getting the full effect of either, experts say.1、What have scientists in University of California found abou

52、t “the cocktail-party effect”?AUsually there is only one person who is speaking alone.BAll kinds of annoying sounds drive up the decibel level.CThe higher brain processes sounds and images selectively.DSounds are sorted out before reaching the higher brain.2、What do we learn from the passage?AWe are

53、 biologically incapable of multitasking.BWe survive distractions in life by multitasking.CWe cannot multitask without extra attention.DWe benefit from pushing the limit with multitasking.3、Which of the following is an example of “inattentional blindness”?AA careless driver lost his eyesight after a

54、car accident.BPolice scanned the crowds and located the criminal.CA manager talked on a hands-free phone with his client.DA pedestrian had a car accident because of phubbing (低头).4、The main purpose of the passage is to _.Acompare and contrastBinform and explainCargue and discussDexamine and evaluate

55、25（10分）When Charles Lee handed me the small red notebook in 1974, he changed my life. “While you are traveling, you should keep notes of things you see and do,” he explained.I was 20 years old, a junior in college, spending a term at the University of London. Charles was a retired traveling salesman

56、. I was staying with him in his cottage in Kendal, located in the Lake District of northern England. It was a one-week homestay the university arranged for us before classes began.I took his advice. I wrote in the notebook every day during the homestay. Back in London, I recorded weekend trips to Wa

57、les, Yorkshire, France, and Spain. I commented on my classes, professors, and classmates. I contrasted my life at a small college in the US with my wandering through the streets of London, my introduction to life in a big city, and my initial travels outside the US. I tracked ideas I had about my li

58、fe and my future.When I wrote in the notebook, I struggled with a sense of my audience and purpose. Who would read this? Were these writings just for me, or did I want others to read them? Was I recording events and ideas just as a prompt(提示) to memory, or was there some larger purpose for this dail

59、y exercise?I knew I was recording events, thoughts, words that were important to my life. I imagined a future me sitting down to read the pages. I wondered what it would feel like to read those words later. I wondered where I would be and what my life would be like.I filled the notebook Charles gave

60、 me. I bought a new one and filled it. Then another and another. I continued writing in notebooks for four decades. By that time, they filled two boxes in my garage.I had reread some of the journals. Specific volumes had provided me with the background I needed for dozens of articles for magazines.
