Answer the questions by marking the corresponding letter on Answer SheetResilience Is About How You Recharge, Not How You Endure[A] As constant travelers and parents of a 2-year-old,we sometimes fantasize about howmuch work we can do when one of us gets on a plane, undistracted by phones, friends, or movies.We race to get all our ground work done: packing, going through security, doing a last-minutework call, calling each other, then boarding the plane. Then, when we try to have that amazingwork session in flight, we get nothing done. Even worse, after refreshing our email or reading the same studies over and over, we are too exhausted when we land to soldier on with (继续处理)the emails that have inevitably still piled up.[B] Why should flying deplete us? We're just stting there doing nothing. Why can't we betougher, more resilient (有复原力的) and determined in our work so we can accomplish all of thegoals we set for ourselves? Based on our current research, we have come to realize that theproblem is not our hectic schedule or the plane travel itself; the problem comes from amisconception of what it means to be resilient, and the resuting impact of overworking.[C] We often take a mltaristic, “tough” approach to resilience and determination like aMarine pulling himself through the mud, a boxer going one more round, or a football playerpicking himself up off the ground for one more play. We believe that the longer we tough it out,the tougher we are, and therefore the more successful we will be. However, this entireconception is scientifically inaccurate.[D] The very lack of a recovery period is dramatically holding back our collective ability to beresilient and successful. Research has found that there is a direct correlation between lack ofrecovery and increased incidence of health and safety problems.

Research has found that there is a direct correlation between lack ofrecovery and increased incidence of health and safety problems. And lack of recovery- -whetherbrains need a rest as much as our bodies do.[K] If you really want to build resilience, you can start by strategically stopping. Give yourselfthe resources to be tough by creating internal and external recovery periods. Amy Blanksondescribes how to strategically stop during the day by using technology to control overworking.She suggests downloading the Instant or Moment apps to see how many times you turn on yourphone each day. You can also use apps like Offtime or Unplugged to create tech free zones bystrategically scheduling automatic airplane modes. The average person turns on their phone 150times every day. If every distraction took only 1 minute, that would account for 2.5 hours a day.[4] In addition, you can take a cognitive break every 90 minutes to charge your batteries. Try tonot have lunch at your desk, but instead spend time outside or with your friends - - not talkingabout work. Take all of your paid time off, which not only gives you recovery periods, but raisesyour productivity and likelihood of promotion.[M] As for us, we've started using our plane time as a work-free zone, and thus time to dipinto the recovery phase. The results have been fantastic. We are usually tired already by the time we get on a plane, and the crowded space and unstable internet connection make work morechallenging. Now, instead of swimming upstream, we relax, sleep, watch movies, or listen tomusic. And when we get off the plane, instead of being depleted, we feel recovered and ready toreturn to the performance zone.第36题It has been found that inadequate recovery often leads to poor health and accidents.第37题Mental relaxation is much needed, just as physical relaxation is.第38题Adequate rest not only helps one recover, but also increases one's work efficiency.第39题The author always has a hectic time before taking a flight.第40题Recovery may not take place even if one seems to have stopped working.第41题It is advised that technology be used to prevent people from overworking.第42题Contrary to popular belief, rest does not equal recovery.第43题The author has come to see that his problem results from a misunderstanding of the meaning ofresilience.第44题People's distorted view about resilience may have developed from their upbringing.第45题People tend to think the more determined they are, the greater their success will be.上一题下一题(46~50/共10题)Section CDirections: There are 2 passages in this section.
