28、挥霍)out on a good handbag,you dont want it to be ruined in a downpour.This simple-8 a button(10；amazon.co.uk).as-can-be plastic cover is the solution(10；amazon.co.uk).YOSH waterproof(防水)phone case If you put your phone in this waterproof bag it will be protected from the rainbut youll still be able t

29、o use its touchscreen.With a“snap and lock”seal,it fits most phones up to 6.1 inches in size(10；amazon.co.uk).Hunter Womens Original Play Short Wellington Boots Tall wellies(长筒靴)are great for walking in long grass,but unnecessarily heavy for city wear;these short boots are a sensible investment for

32、rchers were actually studying traffic jams.Jonathan Boreyko,an American engineering professor,was crawling along in his car one day,observing how drivers naturally bunch up at red 9 lights,leaving mere inches between vehicles.Their motivation isnt a mystery：the closer you are to the car ahead,youd a

33、ssume,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 youd assume wrong.When Boreyko and a colleague recreated the traffic-light scenario(场景)on a special test track,they fo

34、und that drivers who bunched up made no swifter progress.True,they stopped slightly closer to the light.But it also took them longer to resume(继续)moving safely,and these two factors cancelled each other out.“Theres no point in getting closer to the car in front of you when traffic comes to a stop，”B

35、oreyko 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 as the psychologist Robert Boice argues,racing to get a task completed generally brings a cost that outweighs the benefit.You tire yourself out,so

36、you cant shine the next day.Or you neglect so many other duties that youre forced to take an extra day to catch up.Or you start damaging work youve already producedwhich is why the novelist Gabriel Garca M rquez said he gave up writing in the afternoon：he wrote more,but he had to redo it the next mo

37、rning,so the overall effect was to slow him down.Thats also why Boice insists that,when youre writing on a schedule,its as important to be disciplined about 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 doe

38、snt mean its untrue.Indeed,its scary to ask what role impatience plays in your life in general：how much of each day we spend leaning into the future,trying to get tasks“out of the way”，always focused on the destination,metaphorically(隐喻地)inching 1 0closer and closer to the bumper of the car ahead.No

39、ne of it gets us anywhere faster.Its also no way to live.()58.Which of the following best summarizes the finding of Boreykos study?A.The sooner,the better.B.More haste,no extra speed.C.The early bird catches the worm.D.Chances favour the prepared mind.()59.The author wants to tell us that in creativ

41、traffic rules CIn the famous musical My Fair Lady,Eliza Doolittle,the poor daughter of a dustman who speaks with a thick Cockney accent,becomes the unwitting(不知晓的)target for a bet between two phonetics scholars.By the end of the musical,Doolittle is able to pronounce all of her words like a member o

42、f 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 US.because,unlike the British,Americans seem either unwilling or unable to honestly acknowledge their own social class.But a new set of scientific studies conducted

43、 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 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,gende

44、r and social 1 1class.The participants heard each speaker say a total of seven different words.Based on just this short audio,participants were able to correctly identify which speakers were collegeeducated 55 percent of the timemore than what would be expected by chance.A major limitation of this s

45、tudy,however,was that it used college education as a criterion for social class.Then in another experiment,302 participants were asked to either listen to or read transcripts(文本)from 90 seconds of recorded speech in which the speakers talked about themselves without explicitly mentioning anything ab

46、out their social class.Participants were asked to judge what they thought the social classes of the speakers were by using a 10-rung ascending(上升的)ladder of increasing income,education and occupation status.They found that participants who heard the audio recordings were more accurate in judging whe

47、re the speakers fell in terms of their social status.To show whether these inferences have real-world consequences,Kraus and his colleagues ran 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.

48、The findings showed that participants were able to accurately judge the social class of the candidates and that this effect was stronger for participants who had heard the audio recordings.In addition,participants judged the higher-class candidates as more competent,a better fit for the job and more

49、 likely to be hired.Taken together,this research suggests that despite our discomfort about the topic,Americans are able to easily detect 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.Thi

50、s research identifies social class as another potential way that employers 1 2may discriminate against candidates,perhaps without even realizing it.()61.The author introduces his topic by _A.making a comparison B.justifying an assumption C.explaining a phenomenon D.relating the plot of a musical()62
