Multitasking (多任务处理)
Being able to multitasking ---doing several things at the same time ---- is considered a welcome skill by most people. But if we consider the situation of the young people aged from eight to eighteen, we should think again.
What we often see nowadays is that young people juggle a larger number of electronic devices (电子产品) as they study. While working, they also surf on the Internet, send out emails, answer the telephone and listen to music on their iPads. In a sense, they are spending a large amount of time in fruitless efforts as they multitask.
Multitasking is even changing the relationship between family members. As young people give so much attention to their own worlds, they seem to have no time to spend 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.
Multitasking also has an effect on young people’s performance at university and in the workplace. When asked about their opinions of the efforts of modern gadgets (器具) on their performance of tasks, many young people gave a positive(肯定的) response (回应). However, the response from the worlds of education and business was not quite as positive. Educators feel that multitasking by children has a serious effect on later development of study skills. They believe that many college students now need help to improve their study skills. Similarly, employers (雇主) feel that young people entering the job market need to be taught all over again, as modern gadgets have made it unnecessary for them to learn special skills to do their work.

Do animals have a culture? What do we mean by “culture?” Lately social scientists have begun to ask if culture is found just in humans, or if some animals have culture too. When we speak of culture, we mean a way of life a group of people have in common. Culture includes the beliefs and attitudes we learn. It is the patterns( 样式 ) of behavior that help people to live together. It is also the patterns of behavior that make one group of people different from another group.
Our culture lets us make up for having lost our strength, claws, long teeth, and other defenses. Instead we use tools, cooperate with one another, and communicate ( 交流 ) with language. But these aspects of human behavior, or “culture,” can also be found in the lives of certain animals. Animals can make tools, for example. We used to think that the ability to use tools was the dividing line between human beings and other animals. Lately, however, we have found that this is not the case. Chimpanzees( 黑猩猩 ) can not only use tools but actually make tools themselves. Animals can also share knowledge with each other and use their own language to know that the line dividing(区分 ) us from animals is not as clear as we used to think.
1.When we talk about “culture”, we mean________.
A. book language of behavior we learn B. the patterns of behavior we learn
C. traditional ideas D. people’s habits
2.We thought ____________ was the biggest difference between human beings and other animals.
A. cooperating with one another B. communicating with language
C. using tools D. losing long teeth
3.It’s ___________ that animals have a culture too.
A. sure B. unbelievable C. possible D. important
4. The main idea of the passage is ___________.
A. chimpanzees can learn to use sign language to make sentences
B. other animals can invent tools.
C. knowledge and communication are no longer signs
D. the line dividing human culture from animal culture is not as clear as we might think
