Reading comprehension (2 points* 10)Passage 1The people who mullilask(同时执行多项任务/一心多用)the most are the ones who are worst at it. That's the surprising conclusion of researchers at Stanford University, who found multitaskers are more easily distracted and less able to ignore irrelevant information than people who do less multitasking."The huge finding is, the more media people use ihc worse they are at using any media. We were (otally shocked,“ Clifford Nass, a professor at Stanford's communications department, said in a telephone interview.The researchers studied 262 college undergraduates, dividing them into high and low multitasking groups and comparing such things as memory, ability to switch from one task to another and being able to focus on a task. Their findings are reported in Tuesday's edition of Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. In the study, the researchers first had to figure out who are the heavy and light multitaskers. They gave the students a form listing a variety of media such as print, television, computer-based video, music, computer games, telephone voice or text, and so forth.When it came to such essential abilities, people who did a lot of multitasking didn't score as well as others, Nass said.Still to be answered is why the folks who are worst at multitasking are the ones doing it the most. It's sort of a chicken-or-egg question. 4<Is multitasking causing them to be lousy (差劲)at multitasking, or is their lousiness at multitasking causing them to be muliiiaskcrs?” Nass wondered. t4Is it born or learned?In a society that seems to encourage more and more multitasking, the findings have social implications, Nass observed. Multitasking is already blamed for car crashes as several states restrict the use of cell phones while driving. Lawyers or advertisers can try to use irrelevant information to distract and refocus people to influence their decisions.1.

Il has been concluded in ihis research that multitasking itself is the reason for the bad performance of the multitaskers.Passage 2People are iiiscinated by robots. Some of them look like mechanical dolls to play with. Most of them look like other machines of today's technology.One of (he advantages of robots is that they can work in situations that are dangerous or harmful for human workers. For example, the continuous smell of paint has a harmful cftcct on painters, but it doesn't bother a robot. Robols can work in nuclear power plants and in undersea research stations that might be dangerous lor humans.There are robots in the plastics industry and in chemical industry and industrial equipment industries. One of the most common uses of robots is in automobile factories. They can do the heavy, unpleasant, or dangerous work. For example, a computer programmer writes a program that tells how much paint (o use, how thick i( must be, and ihc size of the car body. The robot docs not waste any time or movements. It never becomes bored. It doesn't need a coffee break. It lasts 20 to 25 years.Today's robots arc simple-minded compared with the ones of the fuiure. Researchers are now working on the sixth generation. These new robots will be able to take infbnnation from the environment. They will be able to see, using television camera for eyes. They will be able to touch and hear. Some computers can already understand a limited vocabulary. Researchers arc trying to develop ones that can understand human speech. They will be able to understand voice commands and then respond.The new robots will be able to move in more ways. They will have several arms, each will several fingers.
