Ⅳ.任务型阅读(每小题1分,共10分)
阅读并根据下面的短文,在表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。
思维品质 逻辑思维 This is an unusual truth that anyone older than 25 will already know: as life goes on, time seems to speed up. Think back to childhood when holidays seemed to last forever and you attended a school for what felt like decades. Now consider last year, by contrast, and it probably raced by. As those in their 30s and 40s will know, the effect gets worse with age—and, for people in their 70s, a year can flash by what seems like days. "Where did the time go?" we wonder.
The best reason is that we can keep the important facts in mind longer when our brains have to process more information. Childhood and young adulthood are full of novelty(新奇)—the first time you rode a bike, had a romance, got a job—but, as we get older, things get more routine(常规的). You can test this out by remembering a recent experience of novelty in your life, such as travel. A few years ago, I went skiing for the first time, and that four-day trip still feels "long". But I might have difficulty noticing a four-day period in my ordinary life.
One way that can work things out, then, is easy to see: try lots of new things. Travel more, if you can, and to strange places. Try new hobbies and meet new people—you'll be using your brain with a lot of efforts, and the result will be a life that feels longer and more meaningful. But small changes work too: even making a change in the route(路线) you take to the office, reading different kinds of novels or choosing a different place to buy your sandwich at lunchtime will have an influence on your feelings.
But novelty can only go so far. Besides, a fulfilling life requires routine: you can't build deep relationships, or rise through the ranks at work if you always make new friends or get new jobs or even have new husbands or wives. That's why the Buddhist teacher Shizen Young suggests another method: learn to meditate(冥想). Even a few minutes a day will get you to have better concentration(专注), and the better you get at concentrating, the more information your brain will take in during any experience, no matter how boring.
You need to believe in yourself. You'll be making your whole life a little more novel. You'll be more present and time will pass less quickly; in fact, you'll make your life longer—without magic pills or creative medical technology.
