D篇
We spend a full third f ur lives waiting. But whereare we ding all f thiswaiting, and what des it mean t an impatientsciety like urs? T understand the issue, let’stake a lk at three types f “waits”.
The very purest frm fwaiting is theWatched-Pt Wait. It is withut dubt the mstannying f all. Take filling up the kitchen sinkas an example. There is abslutely nthing yucand while this is gingn but keep bth eyesfixed n the sink until it’s full. During thesewaits, the brainslips away frm the bdy andwanders abut until the water runs ver theedge f the cunter and nt yur scks. Thismakes the waiter helpless and mindless.
A cusin t the Watched-Pt Wait is theFrced Wait. This ne requires a bit f discipline.Prperly preparing packaged ndle sup requires aFreed Wait. Directins are very specific. “Bringthree cups f water t bil, add mix, simmer (炖) fr three minutes, remve frm heat, let stand fr five minutes." I have my dubts thatanyne has actually fllwed the prceduresstrictly. After all, Frced Waiting requires patience.
Perhaps the mst pwerful type f waitingis the Lucky-Break Wait.This type f wait isunusual in that it is fr the mst part vluntary,Unlike the Frced Wait, which is alsvluntary, waiting fr yur lucky break desnt necessarily mean that it will happen.
Turning ne's life int a waiting gamerequires faith and hpe, and is strictly fr theptimists amng us. On the surface it seems as ridiculus(荒谬的)as fllwing the directins n sup mixes, but the Lucky-Break Wait wellserves thse wh are willing t d it. As lng asne desn't cme t rely n it,wishingfr afewgd things never hurts anybdy.
We certainly d spend a gd deal f urtime waiting. The next time yu’re standing atthe sink waitingfr it t fill while ckingndle sup that yu'll have t eat until a largebag f cash falls ut f the sky, dn't bedesperate.Yu're prbably just as busy as thenext guy.
( )12. While ding a Watched-Pt Wait, wetend t_______.
A. keep urselves busy
B.get absent-minded
C.grw anxius
D. stay fcused
( )13. What is the difference between theFrced Wait and the Watched-PtWait?
A. The Frced Wait requires smeself-cntrl.
B.The Frced Wait makes peplepassive.
C. The Watched-Pt Waitneedsdirectins.
D. The Watched-Pt Wait engagesbdy and brain.
( )14. What des the authr advise us t dthe next time we are waiting?
A. Take it seriusly.
B. Dn’t rely n thers.
C. D smething else.
D. Dn’t lse heart.
( )15. The authr supprtshis viewby______.
A. explring varius causes f “waits”
B. describing detailed prcessesfwaits"
C. analyzing different categries f“waits"
D. revealing frustrating cnsequencesf “waits”
