12.Which isthe besttitle forthe textA.The YoungCan BuildGood MoralValues EasilyB.It IsDifficult forthe Youngto UnderstandMoral ValuesC.Stories Playan ImportantRole inthe YoungsMoral ValuesD.Scientists FindMore Waysto Helpthe YoungBuild MoralValuesDJason,a straight-A studentfromtheUniversity ofPennsylvania,uses theterm pseudo-working”to describehowmany ofus study.The pseudo-worker looksand feelslike someonewho isworking bard-he orshe spendsalong timeinthe library andis notafraid topush onlate intothe night-but,becauseofa lackof focusandconcentration,he orshe doesntactually achievemuch.This phenomenoncam beseen inmost colleges.For example,at Dartmouththerewasa sectionofthemainlibrary thatwas opentwenty-four hoursa dayandthestudents Iused tosee inthere lateat nightcrowded ingroups,drinking coffee,were definitelypseudo-working.The roommatewho looksthrough herchemistry noteson thecouchwhile watchingTV ispseudo-working.The guywho bringsthree meals,a blanket,and six-pack ofRed Bulltothestudyzone inpreparation foran all-day paper-writing marathonis alsopseudo-working.By placingthemselves indistracting environmentsand insistingon workinglong hours,these studentsaredamaging theirbrains abilityto thinkclearly andefficiently to achieve thetask athand.In theend theyget halftheresults withtwice theeffort.The biggerproblem hereis thatmost studentsdont evenrealize thattheyre pseudo-working.To thempseudo-working iswork-its howtheyve alwaysdone it,and itshow allof their friends doit.li nevercrosses theirmindthat theremightbea betterway.Straight-A students,ontheother hand,know allabout pseudo-working.They fearit,and forgood reasonIt notonly wastestime,but itsalso mentallytiring.In fact,themostimportant skillin becominga betterstudent isthe abilityto getwork donequickly andwith asmallestamount ofwasted effort.Some cognitivescience researchconcludes thatabout50minutes isthe optimallearningperiod tomaximize thematerial integratedper timeunit.So howdo thesestudents achievethis goalTo(公式)understand theirway tosuccess,consider the following simpleformula workachieved=time spent*intensity of fbcus.Pseudo-working featuresa verylow intensityoffbcus.Therefore,toachievesomething bypseudo-working.You needto spendalotof time.The straight-A approach,ontheother hand,increases intensityin ordertouselesstime.
