- 英譯漢 Think about driving a route that’s very familiar. It could be your commute to work, a trip into town or the way home. Whichever it is, you know every twist and turn like the back of your hand. On these sorts of trips it’s easy to zone out from the actual driving and pay little attention to the passing scenery. The consequence is that you perceive that the trip has taken less time than it actually has. This is the well-traveled road effect: people tend to underestimate the time it takes to travel a familiar route. The effect is caused by the way we allocate our attention. When we travel down a well-known route, because we don’t have to concentrate much, time seems to flow more quickly. And afterwards, when we come to think back on it, we can’t remember the journey well because we didn’t pay much attention to it. So we assume it was shorter.

參考答案 設(shè)想你正在一條熟悉的路線上開車。這路線可能是你上下班、進城或者回家的路線。但不管是哪種路線，你對這條路上的每個迂回曲折都了如指掌。在這樣的路途中，我們很容易在開車時心不在焉，對沿途風(fēng)景也不關(guān)注。結(jié)果是，你覺得車途時間比實際的要少。
這就是"熟路效應(yīng)"：人們往往會低估在熟悉的路線上開車所花的時間。
這種效應(yīng)是由我們分配注意力的方式導(dǎo)致的。當(dāng)我們行駛在熟悉的路上時，時間似乎過得很快，因為我們不用太集中精力。當(dāng)我們隨后來回顧這段車程時，我們卻不太記得了，因為我們當(dāng)時并沒有太注意。所以我們花費的時間要比實際的短些。

- 8 【英譯漢】 Think this way, it’s your inability to resist cheesecake that’s making it tough to fit into your skinny jeans? Well, a new study shows your bacteria may share some of the blame. Because the new study in mice reveals that the response of intestinal microbes to a high-fat diet ends up triggering the release of a hormone that makes mammals feel hungry, causing them to eat even more. The finding is served up in the journal Nature. Previous work has shown that the types of bacteria in the gut in diabetic or obese individuals are different from the bacteria in healthy people. But does this bacterial makeup contribute to these disorders? Or is it just a side effect? To unravel this mystery, researchers put mice on a high-fat diet. As a result, the animals experienced a buildup of a chemical called acetate (醋酸鹽), particularly in the large intestine(腸).

- 10 【英譯漢】 Quality of life is about more than the size of your pay cheque. It means being able to spend an evening with your family once a week--instead of keeping one parent at home with the kids while the other works, and then exchanging a few words when you switch roles halfway through the day. It means being able to request working hours that allow you to travel when buses are running so you do not have to walk miles to get to work. Those things matter to workers. When someone on a low wage talks about finding a better job, better pay is just part of the mix. This is why campaigns groups across America are trying to win better conditions--enabling mployees to address questions of health, safety and life quality, alongside their wage gains. Short-notice rotas, as much as low pay or unsafe conditions, are central to a spate of protests across the US.
