Prcrastinatin - a Virtue When It Cmes t Creativity?
Psychlgist Adam Grant, frm the University f Pennsylvania in Philadelphia, argues that peple wh “put ff” slving a task fr a little while - thus engaging in mderate prcrastinatin -- are ften able t cme up with ___21___ (riginal) ideas abut hw t slve that task than peple wh get started n their wrk right away.
Grant makes this argument in the bk Originals: Hw Nn-cnfrmists Change the Wrld and reiterates it in a ppular TED talk ___22___ he says that “prcrastinatin is a vice when it cmes t prductivity, but it can be a virtue when it cmes t creativity.” This pint f view seems ___23___ (find) sme supprt in existing studies that indicate a crrelatin between creativity and “putting things ff.”
Grant explains that the link between mderate prcrastinatin and riginality likely ___24___ (exist) because when we actively put ff a task fr a while, ur preccupatin with the task itself des nt disappear. Instead, the unfinished wrk “runs in the backgrund” f ur brains, ___25___ (buy) us time t find innvative slutins.
One study ___26___ (publish) in Persnality and Individual Differences in 2017 als fund a link between creative ideatin (cming up with creative ideas) and active prcrastinatin. It suggested that amng 853 undergraduates at Chinese universities, “active prcrastinatrs” may be mre prne t creativity.
Bredm ___27___ have smething t d with this bst in creative thinking. Older research frm the University f Flrida in Gainesville suggests that peple wh prcrastinate may be mre prne t bredm than their peers.
And while bredm itself is a cncept that smetimes has negative cnntatins, studies ___28___ (shw) that allwing urselves t feel bred fr a while can bst ur creative abilities. The researchers explain that this may be because when we are bred, we allw ur minds t wander, thus “training” ur imaginatins.
Finally, ___29___ putting ff a task frever ut f fear and self-dubt may be paralyzing and unhelpful, a little bit f “directed” prcrastinatin will likely nt be harmful and may allw us t assess the task at hand mre imaginatively.
And fr sme f us, that pressure f lking a deadline straight in the eye can be just ___30___ we need t keep us n ur tes. As Calvin, ne f the main characters in the cmic strips Calvin and Hbbes, nce said : “Yu can’t just turn n creativity like a faucet. Yu have t be in the right md,” and that md is “last - minute panic.”
Sectin B

Mst peple get sweaty palms just staring at EI Capitan, a breathtaking rck frmatin i Ysemite Natinal Park, Califrnia. Alex Hnnld’s stayed dry. And this June, he managed t climb the 900-meter vertical wall, pulling n edges barely big enugh fr ___31___.
Hnnld culd nt ___32___ any slips. That’s because he carried nthing ther than a bag f gymnasts’ chalk, t keep his fingers free f misture. There was n rpe t ___33___him if he fell. After a fur-hur ___34___ f pwer and precisin, the 31-year-ld safely challenged himself.
EI Capitan had been climbed ___35___ befre, including by Hnnld, but never in the way he has. In 2011, an American TV shw abut his earlier “free sls” drew seventeen millin viewers. In climbing, “free” means using nthing but rcks fr supprt. “ Sl” means free f prtectin. It is the sprt at its ___36___. In Ysemite, the birthplace f American climbing, Hannld has reached its peak. Praise frm fellw climbers was ___37___ nly by relief at his safe return.
The achievement marks the latest in a series f milestnes fr sprt climbing (竞技攀岩). In 2015, tw ther American Tmmy Caldwell and Kevin Jrgesn, established a rute up the Dawn Wall, EI Capitan’s ___38___part, after years f attempts. They made the frnt page f the New Yrk Times and gt cngratulatins frm Barack Obama fr the achievement. Last year, sprt climbing was ___39___ accepted int the Olympic prgram fr Tky 2020.
These have strengthened climbing’s psitin in the sprting circle in America and elsewhere. Ggle has invited Jrgesn t give a mtivatinal talk t its emplyees. Climbing gyms have appeared arund the glbe ver the past decade, making the event safer and mre ___40___t rdinary peple.

It wuld nt matter if these misjudgments were just a matter f peple’s pinins. Hwever, they have real impacts, as they result in ___42___ use f scarce resurces.
The eager embrace f the ICT (Infrmatin and Cmmunicatin Technlgy) revlutin, represented by the Internet, has made sme rich cuntries wrngly cnclude that making things is s “yesterday” that they shuld try t live n ___43___.This belief in “pst-industrial sciety” has led thse cuntries t ___44___ their manufacturing sectr(制造业)with negative cnsequences fr their ecnmies.
Even mre wrryingly, the ___45___ with the Internet by peple in rich cuntries has mved the internatinal cmmunity t wrry abut the “digital ___46___” between the rich cuntries and the pr cuntries. This has led cmpanies and individuals t dnate mney t develping cuntries t buy cmputer equipment and Internet facilities. The questin,___47___,is whether this is what the develping cuntries need the mst.Perhaps giving mney fr thse less ___48___ things such as digging wells,extending electricity netwrks and making mre affrdable washing machines wuld have imprved peple’s lives mre than giving every child a laptp cmputer r setting up Internet centers in rural villages. I am nt saying that thse things are necessarily mre imprtant, but these generus dnatrs dn’t seem t give pririty t peple’s ___49___ needs. Rather, they have rushed int fancy prgrams withut carefully assessing the relative lng-term csts and benefits f ____50____ uses f their mney.
In yet anther example,an bsessin with the new has led peple t believe that the latest changes in the technlgies f cmmunicatins and transprtatin are s revlutinary that nw we live in a “brderless wrld”. ____51____,in the last twenty years r s,many peple have cme t believe that whatever change is happening tday is the result f great technlgical prgress,ging against which will be like trying t turn the clck back.Believing in such a wrld,many gvernments have ____52____ sme f the very necessary regulatins n crss-brder flws f capital,labr and gds,with pr results.
Understanding technlgical trends is very imprtant fr ____53____ designing ecnmic plicies, bth at the natinal and the internatinal levels, and fr making the right career chices at the ____54____ level.

Researchers in the field f psychlgy have fund that ne f the best ways t make an imprtant decisin, such as chsing a university t attend r a business t invest in, invlves the utilizatin f a decisin wrksheet. Psychlgists wh study ptimizatin cmpare actual decisins made by peple with theretical ideal decisins t see hw similar they are. Supprters f the wrksheet prcedure believe that it will yield ptimal, that is, the best decisins. Althugh there are several variatins n the exact frmat that wrksheet can take, they are all similar in their essential aspects. Wrksheets require defining the prblem in a clear and cncise way and then listing all pssible slutins t the prblem. Next, the relevant cnsideratins that will be affected by each decisin are listed, and the relative imprtance f each cnsideratin r cnsequence is determined. Each cnsideratin is assigned a numerical value t reflect its relative imprtance. A decisin is mathematically calculated by adding these values tgether. The alternative with the highest number f pints emerges as the best decisin.
Since mst imprtant prblems are multifaceted(多层面的), there are several alternatives t chse frm, each with unique advantages and disadvantages. One f the benefits f a pencil and paper decisin-making prcedure is that it permits peple t deal with mre variables than their minds can generally cmprehend and remember. On the average, peple can keep abut seven ideas in their minds at nce. A wrksheet can be especially useful when the decisin invlves a large number f variables with cmplex relatinships. A realistic example fr many cllege students is the questin “What will I d after graduatin?” A graduate might seek a psitin that ffers specialized training, pursue an advanced degree, r travel abrad fr a year.
A decisin-making wrksheet begins with a brief statement f the prblem that will als help t narrw it. It is imprtant t be clear abut the distinctin between lng-range and immediate gals because lng-range gals ften invlve a different decisin than shrt-range nes. Fcusing n lng range gals，a graduating student might revise the questin abve t “What will I d after graduatin that will lead t a successful career?”
Of the fllwing steps, which ccurs befre the thers in making a decisin wrksheet?
Listing the cnsequences f each slutin.
Calculating a numerical summary f each slutin.
Deciding which cnsequences are mst imprtant.
Writing dwn all pssible slutins.
Accrding t decisin-wrksheet thery, an ptinal decisin is defined as ne that _______.
has the fewest variables t cnsider
uses the mst decisin wrksheets
has the mst pints assigned t it
is agreed by the greatest number f peple
The authr states that “On the average, peple can keep abut seven ideas in their minds at nce” t explain that _______.
mst decisins invlve seven steps
human mental capacity has limitatins
sme peple have difficulty making minr as well as majr decisins
peple can learn t keep mre than seven ideas in their minds with practice
What des the passage mainly discuss?

Culd fast fd make it harder t stp and smell the rses?
A new study frm the University f Trnt suggests that fast fd might make it harder t stp and smell the rses. Researchers pinted ut that Americans have gained mre and mre leisure time, yet they aren’t any happier. The prblem culd be that mdern cnveniences make us mre impatient, and therefre less able t appreciate small mments f jy.
T test the thery, the University f Trnt researchers carried ut a few different tests fcused n fast fds, the typical American “symbls f the culture f impatience,” and happiness.
In ne f the tests, researchers tld 257 peple t rate pictures based n whether they were suitable fr ads. Participants saw a series f pictures: One grup saw fast fd in regular packaging while the ther grup saw the same fd set ut n ceramic tableware (瓷器餐具). Afterward, sme f the participants were shwn phtgraphs f “scenic natural beauty” and then were asked t rate their happiness. Others rated their happiness withut seeing the pictures. The researchers fund that peple wh saw the fast fd befre viewing the nature phts tended t rate their happiness lwer. Yet thse wh simply rated their happiness withut seeing the nature shts befrehand were actually a little happier if they’d seen fast fd in advance. Researchers said that suggests fast fd desn’t directly cause unhappiness but decreases the ability t enjy things.
Researchers cautined, hwever, that much mre research was needed t determine exactly hw fast fd and happiness are crrelated and hw strng the relatinship really is.

Prcrastinatin - a Virtue When It Cmes t Creativity?
Psychlgist Adam Grant, frm the University f Pennsylvania in Philadelphia, argues that peple wh “put ff” slving a task fr a little while - thus engaging in mderate prcrastinatin -- are ften able t cme up with ___21___ (riginal) ideas abut hw t slve that task than peple wh get started n their wrk right away.
Grant makes this argument in the bk Originals: Hw Nn-cnfrmists Change the Wrld and reiterates it in a ppular TED talk ___22___ he says that “prcrastinatin is a vice when it cmes t prductivity, but it can be a virtue when it cmes t creativity.” This pint f view seems ___23___ (find) sme supprt in existing studies that indicate a crrelatin between creativity and “putting things ff.”
Grant explains that the link between mderate prcrastinatin and riginality likely ___24___ (exist) because when we actively put ff a task fr a while, ur preccupatin with the task itself des nt disappear. Instead, the unfinished wrk “runs in the backgrund” f ur brains, ___25___ (buy) us time t find innvative slutins.
One study ___26___ (publish) in Persnality and Individual Differences in 2017 als fund a link between creative ideatin (cming up with creative ideas) and active prcrastinatin. It suggested that amng 853 undergraduates at Chinese universities, “active prcrastinatrs” may be mre prne t creativity.
Bredm ___27___ have smething t d with this bst in creative thinking. Older research frm the University f Flrida in Gainesville suggests that peple wh prcrastinate may be mre prne t bredm than their peers.
And while bredm itself is a cncept that smetimes has negative cnntatins, studies ___28___ (shw) that allwing urselves t feel bred fr a while can bst ur creative abilities. The researchers explain that this may be because when we are bred, we allw ur minds t wander, thus “training” ur imaginatins.
Finally, ___29___ putting ff a task frever ut f fear and self-dubt may be paralyzing and unhelpful, a little bit f “directed” prcrastinatin will likely nt be harmful and may allw us t assess the task at hand mre imaginatively.
And fr sme f us, that pressure f lking a deadline straight in the eye can be just ___30___ we need t keep us n ur tes. As Calvin, ne f the main characters in the cmic strips Calvin and Hbbes, nce said : “Yu can’t just turn n creativity like a faucet. Yu have t be in the right md,” and that md is “last - minute panic.”

EI Capitan had been climbed ___35___ befre, including by Hnnld, but never in the way he has. In 2011, an American TV shw abut his earlier “free sls” drew seventeen millin viewers. In climbing, “free” means using nthing but rcks fr supprt. “ Sl” means free f prtectin. It is the sprt at its ___36___. In Ysemite, the birthplace f American climbing, Hannld has reached its peak.

The achievement marks the latest in a series f milestnes fr sprt climbing (竞技攀岩). In 2015, tw ther American Tmmy Caldwell and Kevin Jrgesn, established a rute up the Dawn Wall, EI Capitan’s ___38___part, after years f attempts.

These have strengthened climbing’s psitin in the sprting circle in America and elsewhere. Ggle has invited Jrgesn t give a mtivatinal talk t its emplyees.

The eager embrace f the ICT (Infrmatin and Cmmunicatin Technlgy) revlutin, represented by the Internet, has made sme rich cuntries wrngly cnclude that making things is s “yesterday” that they shuld try t live n ___43___.This belief in “pst-industrial sciety” has led thse cuntries t ___44___ their manufacturing sectr(制造业)with negative cnsequences fr their ecnmies.
Even mre wrryingly, the ___45___ with the Internet by peple in rich cuntries has mved the internatinal cmmunity t wrry abut the “digital ___46___” between the rich cuntries and the pr cuntries. This has led cmpanies and individuals t dnate mney t develping cuntries t buy cmputer equipment and Internet facilities. The questin,___47___,is whether this is what the develping cuntries need the mst.Perhaps giving mney fr thse less ___48___ things such as digging wells,extending electricity netwrks and making mre affrdable washing machines wuld have imprved peple’s lives mre than giving every child a laptp cmputer r setting up Internet centers in rural villages.

In yet anther example,an bsessin with the new has led peple t believe that the latest changes in the technlgies f cmmunicatins and transprtatin are s revlutinary that nw we live in a “brderless wrld”. ____51____,in the last twenty years r s,many peple have cme t believe that whatever change is happening tday is the result f great technlgical prgress,ging against which will be like trying t turn the clck back.Believing in such a wrld,many gvernments have ____52____ sme f the very necessary regulatins n crss-brder flws f capital,labr and gds,with pr results.

Researchers in the field f psychlgy have fund that ne f the best ways t make an imprtant decisin, such as chsing a university t attend r a business t invest in, invlves the utilizatin f a decisin wrksheet. Psychlgists wh study ptimizatin cmpare actual decisins made by peple with theretical ideal decisins t see hw similar they are. Supprters f the wrksheet prcedure believe that it will yield ptimal, that is, the best decisins. Althugh there are several variatins n the exact frmat that wrksheet can take, they are all similar in their essential aspects. Wrksheets require defining the prblem in a clear and cncise way and then listing all pssible slutins t the prblem. Next, the relevant cnsideratins that will be affected by each decisin are listed, and the relative imprtance f each cnsideratin r cnsequence is determined. Each cnsideratin is assigned a numerical value t reflect its relative imprtance. A decisin is mathematically calculated by adding these values tgether. The alternative with the highest number f pints emerges as the best decisin.
Since mst imprtant prblems are multifaceted(多层面的), there are several alternatives t chse frm, each with unique advantages and disadvantages. One f the benefits f a pencil and paper decisin-making prcedure is that it permits peple t deal with mre variables than their minds can generally cmprehend and remember. On the average, peple can keep abut seven ideas in their minds at nce. A wrksheet can be especially useful when the decisin invlves a large number f variables with cmplex relatinships. A realistic example fr many cllege students is the questin “What will I d after graduatin?” A graduate might seek a psitin that ffers specialized training, pursue an advanced degree, r travel abrad fr a year.
A decisin-making wrksheet begins with a brief statement f the prblem that will als help t narrw it. It is imprtant t be clear abut the distinctin between lng-range and immediate gals because lng-range gals ften invlve a different decisin than shrt-range nes. Fcusing n lng range gals，a graduating student might revise the questin abve t “What will I d after graduatin that will lead t a successful career?”
Of the fllwing steps, which ccurs befre the thers in making a decisin wrksheet?
Listing the cnsequences f each slutin.
Calculating a numerical summary f each slutin.
Deciding which cnsequences are mst imprtant.
Writing dwn all pssible slutins.
Accrding t decisin-wrksheet thery, an ptinal decisin is defined as ne that _______.
has the fewest variables t cnsider
uses the mst decisin wrksheets
has the mst pints assigned t it
is agreed by the greatest number f peple
The authr states that “On the average, peple can keep abut seven ideas in their minds at nce” t explain that _______.
mst decisins invlve seven steps
human mental capacity has limitatins
sme peple have difficulty making minr as well as majr decisins
peple can learn t keep mre than seven ideas in their minds with practice
What des the passage mainly discuss?
A tl t assist in making cmplex decisins.
A cmparisn f actual decisins and ideal decisins.
Research n hw peple make decisins.
Differences between lng-range and shrt-range decisin making.

Culd fast fd make it harder t stp and smell the rses?
A new study frm the University f Trnt suggests that fast fd might make it harder t stp and smell the rses. Researchers pinted ut that Americans have gained mre and mre leisure time, yet they aren’t any happier. The prblem culd be that mdern cnveniences make us mre impatient, and therefre less able t appreciate small mments f jy.
T test the thery, the University f Trnt researchers carried ut a few different tests fcused n fast fds, the typical American “symbls f the culture f impatience,” and happiness.
In ne f the tests, researchers tld 257 peple t rate pictures based n whether they were suitable fr ads. Participants saw a series f pictures: One grup saw fast fd in regular packaging while the ther grup saw the same fd set ut n ceramic tableware (瓷器餐具). Afterward, sme f the participants were shwn phtgraphs f “scenic natural beauty” and then were asked t rate their happiness. Others rated their happiness withut seeing the pictures. The researchers fund that peple wh saw the fast fd befre viewing the nature phts tended t rate their happiness lwer. Yet thse wh simply rated their happiness withut seeing the nature shts befrehand were actually a little happier if they’d seen fast fd in advance. Researchers said that suggests fast fd desn’t directly cause unhappiness but decreases the ability t enjy things.
Researchers cautined, hwever, that much mre research was needed t determine exactly hw fast fd and happiness are crrelated and hw strng the relatinship really is.
