The prcess f flw was discvered and cined by the Hungarian-American psychlgist Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi. In the 1960s, Csikszentmihalyi studied the creative prcess and fund that, when an artist was in the curse f flw, they wuld insist n their task strictly, regardless f hunger r exhaustin. 7
One f Csikszentmihalyi’s key pints abut flw is that a persn needs t push neself ut f their cmfrt zne t stimulate it. Because it’s a dynamic state, ne has t cnstantly adjust the skill level, challenge, and cmplexity required fr the activity. 8 If yur skill level ges beynd the activity, bredm will set in, which will break the state f flw.
9 One can access flw by thinking f activities like sprts, dancing and painting. We can als have a flw state experience with many f ur day-t-day tasks and encunters. Watching TV and vide gaming, hwever, are nt n that list.

【導(dǎo)語】這是一篇說明文,文章主要講述了如何在工作場(chǎng)合中更加舒適地給出誠實(shí)反饋。
26. 根據(jù)前文的“Shuld yu cautiusly tell a cwrker she’s been misprnuncing a client’s name? Or wuld yu tell smene abut the piece f vegetable left in his teeth?(你是否應(yīng)該謹(jǐn)慎地告訴同事她念錯(cuò)了客戶的名字?或者你會(huì)告訴別人他牙齒里的那塊蔬菜嗎?)”和后文的“Recent research finds that a cmmn cgnitive errr may help explain why—and that a simple apprach culd help vercme it.(最近的研究發(fā)現(xiàn),一種常見的認(rèn)知錯(cuò)誤可能有助于解釋其中的原因,而且有一種簡(jiǎn)單的方法可以幫助克服它。)”推知,人們?cè)谥赋鰟e人錯(cuò)誤或有不當(dāng)之處時(shí)猶豫不決。F項(xiàng)(很多人在提出這樣誠實(shí)的批評(píng)時(shí)猶豫不決,即使這樣做的好處似乎很明顯。)承接上文,“hnest criticism”指的便是前文的兩個(gè)做法,后文指出了人們提出誠實(shí)的批評(píng)的原因在于認(rèn)知的錯(cuò)誤,但有辦法可以改變它,故選F項(xiàng)。
27. 根據(jù)后文的“The miscalculatin was particularly bvius when the feedback was cnsidered rather essential fr the result, as well as when thse ffering the infrmatin predicted that ding s wuld be scially uncmfrtable, either fr themselves r fr the receiver.(當(dāng)反饋被認(rèn)為對(duì)結(jié)果至關(guān)重要時(shí),以及當(dāng)提供信息的人預(yù)測(cè)這樣做會(huì)讓他們自己或接受者感到社交上的不舒服時(shí),這種誤判尤其明顯。)”可知,G項(xiàng)(給予反饋的人總是低估了別人有多想聽到有益的批評(píng)。)說明了給予反饋的人的這種低估是一種誤判,尤其是考慮到反饋的重要性或者讓彼此不舒適時(shí),故選G項(xiàng)。
28. 空處位于段末,應(yīng)承接上文。根據(jù)前文的“The underestimatin is likely due t a human tendency t ascribe different mtives and desires t thers than we d t urselves, says Harvard dctral student Nicle Abi-Esber, wh authred the study. Peple tend t want feedback fr themselves, but they underestimate hw much thers want it, t.(這項(xiàng)研究的作者、哈佛大學(xué)博士生 Nicle Abi-Esber說,這種低估很可能是由于人類傾向于將不同的動(dòng)機(jī)和欲望歸因于他人,而不是我們自己。人們往往希望自己得到反饋,但他們低估了別人對(duì)反饋的渴望程度。)”可知,人們沒有給出誠實(shí)的反饋是因?yàn)闆]有站在別人的角度看待問題。D項(xiàng)(原因是他們沒有設(shè)身處地地為別人著想。)承接上文,指出了低估別人對(duì)反饋的渴望程度的原因所在,即沒有站在他人的角度考慮問題,故選D項(xiàng)。
29. 根據(jù)前文的“Skipping ffering cnstructive criticism culd have cnsequences. In ne study, the subjects were asked t engage in a public-speaking cntest.

30. 根據(jù)前文的“Is it pssible t vercme this and get better at giving feedback when it’s mst needed?(是否有可能克服這一點(diǎn),并在最需要的時(shí)候更好地提供反饋?)”和后文的““Take a secnd and imagine yu are the ther persn,” Abi-Esber suggests.

Firstly, playing a musical instrument usually requires intense fcus and cncentratin. 42 Their facial expressins can be a demnstratin f the intense emtins and physical effrt that g hand-in-hand with musical perfrmance. They’re ften subcnscius-in fact, many f us will pull strange faces when we’re deeply invlved in an activity we care abut.
43 Musicians have a strng emtinal cnnectin with the music they perfrm. They ften use their facial expressins t express the md and interpretatin f the music, which creates a mre engaging musical experience. While facial expressins may nt directly make smene a better musician, they might cntribute t the verall artistry f the music.
Perfrming live music is a rather stressful experience, s it culd be that the perfrmer is expressing thse nerves thrugh their face-biting the bttm lip, fr example. Luckily, nerves will ften g away sn after a musician starts perfrming. 44
The facial expressins bviusly t sme extent express the perfrmer’s inner wrld. Anther interesting thing is that making facial expressins can have a physilgical impact n the musician’s perfrmance.

【導(dǎo)語】本文是說明文。音樂家演奏時(shí)不只是用手指演奏還會(huì)有身體動(dòng)作,其中一個(gè)身體動(dòng)作就是面部表情。文章主要介紹了音樂家演奏時(shí)使用面部表情給他們帶來的好處。
41. 上文“But yu may have nticed smething curius that mst musicians dn’t just play with their fingers. They als invlve bdy mvements that fit the sng’s beat r dance fllwing the music. (但您可能已經(jīng)注意到一些奇怪的事情,大多數(shù)音樂家不只是用手指演奏。還包括適應(yīng)歌曲節(jié)奏或舞蹈音樂的身體動(dòng)作。)”可知,音樂家不僅用手指演奏,還會(huì)用身體動(dòng)作,下文“The facial expressins musicians shw when playing may seem strange r crazy t an utsider, but all that pulling faces might actually serve a purpse.(音樂家在演奏時(shí)表現(xiàn)出的面部表情對(duì)于局外人來說可能看起來很奇怪或瘋狂,但所有這些表情實(shí)際上可能都是有目的的。)”指出了音樂家在演奏時(shí)的面部表情是什么樣的,由此可知,空處應(yīng)指出音樂家的身體動(dòng)作之一就是面部表情,B項(xiàng)“其中最能體現(xiàn)這一點(diǎn)的身體部位顯然就是臉部?!背猩蠁⑾?,them代指上文“bdy mvements”,故選B。
42. 上文“Firstly, playing a musical instrument usually requires intense fcus and cncentratin.(首先,演奏樂器通常需要高度集中注意力)”指出演奏樂器通常需要高度集中注意力,所以音樂家會(huì)在演奏時(shí)完全沉浸于表演中,G項(xiàng)“音樂家經(jīng)常進(jìn)入一種“心流”狀態(tài),他們完全沉浸在他們正在創(chuàng)作的音樂中?!背薪由衔?,故選G。
43. 上文“Their facial expressins can be a demnstratin f the intense emtins and physical effrt that g hand-in-hand with musical perfrmance.(他們的面部表情可以表現(xiàn)出與音樂表演密切相關(guān)的強(qiáng)烈情感和體力。)”指出面部表情的好處之一是可以表現(xiàn)出與音樂表演密切相關(guān)的強(qiáng)烈情感和體力,下文“Musicians have a strng emtinal cnnectin with the music they perfrm. They ften use their facial expressins t express the md and interpretatin f the music, which creates a mre engaging musical experience. (音樂家與他們演奏的音樂有著強(qiáng)烈的情感聯(lián)系。他們經(jīng)常用面部表情來表達(dá)音樂的情緒和詮釋,從而創(chuàng)造出更具吸引力的音樂體驗(yàn)。)”指出音樂家用面部表情來表達(dá)音樂的情緒,E項(xiàng)“面部表情還可以幫助音樂家交流情感和藝術(shù)表達(dá)?!苯榻B了面部表情的其他好處,故選E。
44. 上文“Perfrming live music is a rather stressful experience, s it culd be that the perfrmer is expressing thse nerves thrugh their face-biting the bttm lip, fr example. Luckily, nerves will ften g away sn after a musician starts perfrming.(表演現(xiàn)場(chǎng)音樂是一種相當(dāng)緊張的體驗(yàn),因此表演者可能會(huì)通過咬下嘴唇等方式來表達(dá)這些緊張情緒。幸運(yùn)的是,音樂家開始表演后,緊張往往很快就會(huì)消失)”指出表演者可能會(huì)通過咬下嘴唇等方式來表達(dá)緊張情緒,但是音樂家在表演的時(shí)候不會(huì)出現(xiàn)緊張情緒,所以緊張情緒不是音樂家出現(xiàn)這些奇怪面部表情的原因,C項(xiàng)“它們可能不會(huì)成為整個(gè)表演過程中出現(xiàn)這些奇怪面孔的主要原因?!背薪由衔?,they代指上文的nerves,故選C。
45. 上文“Anther interesting thing is that making facial expressins can have a physilgical impact n the musician’s perfrmance. Sme research suggests that certain facial mvements can activate specific muscles and imprve muscle harmnizatin.(另一件有趣的事情是,面部表情會(huì)對(duì)音樂家的表演產(chǎn)生生理影響。一些研究表明,某些面部動(dòng)作可以激活特定的肌肉并改善肌肉的協(xié)調(diào)性)”指出面部表情會(huì)對(duì)音樂家的表演產(chǎn)生生理影響——可以激活特定的肌肉并改善肌肉的協(xié)調(diào)性,空處承接上文,指出這種生理影響對(duì)音樂家表演時(shí)所帶來的好處,D項(xiàng)“這種效果對(duì)于演奏樂器時(shí)控制肌肉特別有幫助。”符合語境,Such effects呼應(yīng)上文的activate specific muscles and imprve muscle harmnizatin,故選D。
