Passage1我们遭受失败,感到疲惫的两个类型
(2022-2023年度·江苏泰州高二泰州中学校考期中)
Failure is probably the most exhausting experience one ever has.There is
nothing more tiring than not succeeding.We experience this tiredness in two
ways:start-up fatigue and performance fatigue.
In the former case,we keep putting off a task because it is either too boring
or too difficult.1 Such start-up fatigue is very real,even if not actually
physical.The solution is obvious though perhaps not easy to apply:always
handle the most difficult job first.2 Using my own rule,I determined to
write them in alphabetical(order and I always started the day's work with
the difficult task of essay-writing.Experience proved that the rule works.
3 Though willing to get started,we cannot seem to do the job right.
Its difficulties appear so great that we fail again and again.Years ago,when
planning Encyclopedia Britannica(《大英百科全书》),I had to create a table of
contents based on the topics of its article.Nothing like this had ever been done
before and none of the solutions that I came up with worked.My fatigue became
almost unbearable.Mentally exhausted,I wrote down all the reasons why the
problems cannot be solved.I tried to convince myself that the trouble was with
the problem itself,not with me.4 An hour later,I woke up suddenly
with the solution which had come up in my unconscious mind and proved
correct at every step.
5 Success was now as exciting as failure had been depressing.
Human beings,I believe,must try to succeed.Success,then,means never feeling
tired.
A.This feeling finally weighed me down.
B.Hard as I worked as before,I felt no fatigue.
C.Performance fatigue is more difficult to handle
D.And the longer we delay it,the more tired we feel.
E.Feeling relieved,I sat back in an easy chair and fell asleep.
F.I once was asked to write 102 essays on some famous authors
G.I racked my brains day and night and wrote the essays desperately.
