Excessive Demands on Young People
Being able to multitask is hailed by most people as a welcome skill,but not according to a recent study
which claims that young people between the ages of eight and eighteen of the so-called Generation M are
spending a considerable amount of their time in fruitless efforts as they multitask.It argues that in fact,these
young people are frittering(浪费)away as much as half of their time as they would if they performed the very
same tasks one after the other.
Some young people are using an ever larger number of electronic devices as they study. At the same time
they are working,young adults are also surfing on the Internet,or sending out emails to their friends,and/or
answering the telephone and listening to music on their iPods or on another computer. As some new device
comes along,it is also added to the list rather than replacing one of the existing devices.Other research has
indicated that this multitasking is even affecting the way families themselves function as young people are too
wrapped up in(沉湎于)their own isolated worlds to interact with the other people around them. They can no
longer greet family members when they enter the house nor can they eat at the family table.
All this electronic wizardry(魔力)is supposedly also seriously affecting young people's performance at
university and in the workplace. When asked about their opinions of the impact of modern gadgets(小装置)
on their performance of tasks,the great majority of young people gave a favourable response.
The response from the academic and business worlds was not quite as positive.The former feel that mul-
titasking with electronic gadgets by children affects later development of study skills,resulting in a decline in
the quality of writing,for example,because of the lack of concentration on task completion.They feel that
many undergraduates now urgently need remedial(补救的)help with study skills. Similarly, employers feel
that young people entering the workforce need to be taught all over again,as they have become deskilled.
While all this may be true,it mnust be borne in mind that more and more is expected of young people
nowadays in fact,too much.Praise rather than criticism is due in respect of the way today's youth are able to
cope despite what the older generation throw at them.What is probably true about the multitasking Generation M?A:They feel they are more efficient than others.B:They waste more time than they should spend.C:They put more energy on important tasks.D:They need to improve their analytical skills.
选项

A:They feel they are more efficient than others.
B:They waste more time than they should spend.
C:They put more energy on important tasks.
D:They need to improve their analytical skills.
答案
B
解析
由第一段中的“these young people are frittering away...as they would”可知,M一代的人浪 费了太多时间。
由第二段中“As some new device comes along, it is also added to the list rather than repla- cing one of the existing devices”可知,当新的装置出现时,孩子只是多了一样装置而已,而不是 用它取代已有的装置,故选D。
由第二段最后一句“They can no longer greet family members when...nor can they eat at the family table.”可知,M一代的孩子回家也不和家人打招呼,也不上桌子吃饭,与家人的关系疏 远了。故选C。
第四段第二句“The former feel...affects later development of study skills”中的The former 指的是the academics,且由该段倒数第二句可知,选C。
由最后一段中的“praise rather than criticism...”可知选D。 praise相当于support。 第三篇 本篇文章主要讲述了成年人也有想象力及如何培养想象力的问题。
