31、bout writing, or gettingany creative work done- though Im pretty sure that wasnt intentional, since the researcherswere actually studying traffic jams. Jonathan Boreyko, an American engineering professor, was crawling along in his ear one day, observing how drivers naturally bunch u at red lights, l

32、eaving mere inches between vehicles. Their motivation isnt a mystery: the closer you are to the car ahead, you d assume, the better your chances of squeezing through before the light goes back to red, and the sooner youll reach your destination, even if you also increase the risk of collisions.But y

33、oud assume wrong When Boreyko and a colleague recreated the traffic-light scenario （場景 ） on a special test track, they found that drivers who bunched u made no swifter progress. True, they stopped slightly closer to the light. But it also took them longer to resume （繼續(xù) ） moving safely, and these two

34、 factors cancelled each other out. Theres no point in getting closer to the car in front of you when traffic comes to a stop, Boreyko concluded.This is true of writing or similar work. People never rest in urgent, pursuit of their goals. Yes, it all looks impressively productive. But 8s the psycholo

35、gist Robert Boice argues, racing to get a task completed generally brings a cost that outweighs the benefit. You tire yourself out, s0 you cant shine the next day. Or you neglect s0 many other duties that youre forced to take an extra day to catch up. Or you start damaging work youve already produce

36、d- which is why the novelist Gabriel Garcia Marquez said he gave up writing in the afternoon: he wrote more, but he had to redo it the next morning, so the overall effect was to slow him down. Thats also why Boice insists that, when youre writing on a schedule, its a important to be disciplined abou

37、t stopping as starting, even if youre on a roll.Clearly, this is all a convenient way to feel superior to people who put in more hours. But that doesn t m ean it s untrue. Indeed, its scary to ask what role impatience plays in your life in genera!: how much of each day we spend leaning into the futu

38、re, trying to get tasks out of the way, always focused on the destination, metaphorically （ 隱喻地 ） inching closer and closer to the bumper of the car ahead. None of it gets us anywhere faster. Its also no way to live.Which of the following best summarizes the finding of Boreykos study?A. The sooner,

41、t for a betbetween two phonetics scholars. By the end of the musical, Doolittle is able to pronounce all of her words like a member of the British elite, fooling everyone at an embassy ball about her true origins.Its hard to imagine a version of My Fair Lady set in the U.S. because, unlike the Briti

42、sh, Americans seem either unwilling or unable to honestly acknowledge their own social class. But a new set of scientific studies conducted by Michael Krauss and his colleagues at Yale University show that Americans find it easy to make distinctions about other peoples social class just by listening

43、 to them speak.In one study, the researchers asked 229 people to listen to 27 different speakers who varied in terms of their age, race, gender and social class. The participants heard each speaker say a total of seven different words. Based on just this short audio, participants were able to correc

44、tly identify which speakers were college-educated 55 percent of the time- -more than what would be expected by chance. A major limitation of this study, however, was that it used college education as a criterion for social class.Then in another experiment, 302 participants were asked to either liste

45、n to or read transcripts （文本 ） from 90 seconds of recorded speech in which the speakers talked about themselves without explicitly mentioning anything about their social class. Participants were asked to judge what they thought the social cases of the speakers were by using a 10-rung ascending （上升的

46、） ladder of increasing income, education and occupation status. They found that participants who heard the audio recordings were more accurate in judging where the speakers fell in terms of their social status.To show whether these inferences have real- world consequences, Kraus and his colleagues r

47、an another experiment. They recruited 274 participants, all of whom had past hiring experience, to either listen to the audio or read a transcript of the content. The findings showed that participants were able to accurately judge the social class of the candidates and that this effect was stronger

48、for participants who had heard the audio recordings. In addition, participants judged the higher- class candidates 8 more competent, a better fit for the job and more likely to be hired.Taken together, this research suggests that despite our discomfort about the topic, Americans are able to easily d

49、etect one anothers social class from small snippets of speech. Moreover, we use this information to discriminate against people who seem to be of a lower social class. This research identifies social class as another potential way that employers may discriminate against candidates, perhaps without e

Watch closely enough and you will see, well, not muc

53、h at all. The ice cube is absorbing heat, but it is still an ice cube. Before it melts, it will draw heat from the environment to change from solid to liquid. Only then will it begin to slip and slide in a puddle of its own making.And so to A Word Without Ice by Henry Pollack, retired professor of g

54、eophysics at the University of Michigan and a member of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change （IPCC） that shared the 2007 Nobel peace prize with Al Gore.The book gets off to a slow start. You may have to work a little before being rewarded.But given time, Pollacks account warms up and really

55、 takes off. The story he has to tell is fascinating, frightening and important.Despite the title, this is not a book about the world without ice. Much is given over to the impact of ice in Earths long history, as an important force that shaped our planets landscape, controlled migrations and influen

56、ced cultures. Pollack takes us through Antarctic and Arctic explorations, the natural cycles that bring us ice ages and milder periods without extremes of heat or cold, and the rise of climate science which, among other achievements, can recreate a history of the temperature on Earth from kilometers

57、 of ice core drilled from the polar caps.Pollack s intellectual power and clarity of phrase are invaluable in describing the scientific evidence for global warming, the ways in which it will affect the world, and the all -too-probable consequences. Pollack is not one to brush awkward issues under th

58、e carpet. There is serious discussion about uncertainties in climate science, and in particular, the computer models used to forecast future warming. For its forensic analysis （取證分析 ） and strong destruction of climate sceptic （ 懷疑論者 ） arguments alone, A World Without Ice is worth keeping on a nearby

59、 shelf.Some readers may find Pollacks US-centric approach occasionally grating （ 刺耳的 ）. He tells of intense irrigation in southwestern Kansas, IPCC reports as big as several New York City phone directories and school- day stories from Omaha But this is forgivable. The US is uniquely placed to act on

60、 climate change but faces a significant barrier in the shape of the outdated, influential, oil- funded anti climate change lobby （ 游說議員的團(tuán)體 ）.Thoughtful throughout, Pollack occasionally delivers paragraphs that stay with you long after closing the book. On the subject of the book itself, he writes: N
