Do you like doing homework while listening to music? Or will you fold clothes when watching a show? Everyone may experience these situations in daily life and this doing-it-all-at-once thing is known as multitasking.
Multitasking means doing more than one activity at a time. In daily life, many of us multitask without even realizing it. But does multitasking really do good to our lives?
You may think multitasking saves your time, but the truth is that only 2.5% of people can multitask well. Studies have found that most people who multitask will spend more time and make more mistakes. That's because when we multitask, we are overusing (过度使用) the part of our brain that controls thinking and planning. It is hard on our brains. Our brains will get tired, and since we're not successfully finishing any one task, we can feel upset and stressed. Instead, if we only deal with one task at a time, we will do a better and more correct job.
However, others may disagree. They think people multitask not only because they want to save time but also because they enjoy it. Some scientists find that multitasking makes people feel more active and have a better sense of participation (参与感). These good feelings will improve their performance and offer a feeling of satisfaction. Also, multitasking is a modern way of life and an important skill you should learn as you grow up. After all, who doesn't want to complete more in less time? Instead of stopping multitasking, it's better to learn how to deal with so many tasks well.
It seems that multitasking is playing an important role in our lives. But it may not be as useful as you expect. What do you think? Should we keep it or drop it?
11.Which of the following is multitasking?
A.Lily focuses on her homework.
B.Tom eats lunch while checking emails.
C.Emma is lost in reading books.
D.Peter does nothing but sleep the whole day.
12.What does the underlined word "it" in paragraph 3 refer to?
A.Overusing our brains. B.Thinking and planning.
C.Finishing a task successfully. D.Feeling upset and stressed.
13.What's paragraph 4 mainly about?
A.The people who prefer multitasking.
B.The time when people multitask.
C.The reasons why people multitask
D.The results that multitasking brings.
14.What does the writer think of multitasking?
A.He thinks it's useful. B.He's unsure about it.
C.He thinks it's unimportant. D.He's hopeful about it.
15.What is the structure of the passage?
A. B. C. D.

Hey, Captain Lim,
First of all, I would like to say that it is a great pleasure to be able to speak to an experienced pilot who knows what life is like in the sky.
I am a 13-year-old girl and for as long as I can remember, I've wanted to be a pilot. I would spend hours watching the planes at the airport take off from the runway. I love the feeling of packing my bags, traveling to some places that I have never explored (探索) before.
I just love airplanes and flying. The idea to fly people around the world always makes me excited. I'm just not sure if it's the right job for me. My dad says I need to make a quick decision because now is the right time to start training. It's true. I want to start early. It sounds funny, but I want to be young and energetic when I'm flying a Qantas Boeing 737, or even an A380!
I have so many questions about it—do you get paid well? I want to have a pretty good income (收入). I want to have a big family and house when I grow up. And it will need a lot of money. Is it fun? Is it safer than being a doctor or a teacher? Will I regret it? I hate regretting things I've done. Is it really hard? I'm also a girl, so will I be looked down upon?
And I would also like to know, if I definitely (明确地) want to become a pilot, where and when I should start training if I want to start early.
Thanks so much, Captain!
Regards,
Mary Anne
