Now it’s the holidays. Hopefully, life is slowing down. It’s the perfect time to learn the art of taking things slow.
Most people are in a rush nearly all the time. This rushing has a name “hurry sickness”. People with hurry sickness often feel like there aren’t enough hours in the day to complete everything. They might get angry when they find themselves trapped in traffic or try to do too many things at once, like eating while getting dressed or watching television while working. Rushing often leads to mistakes and then it takes even more time to fix them in the long run. Hurry sickness can make people feel tired and unhappy.
“There’s so much we miss when we rush,” says Amy Arthur. “Slowing down helps us see more.” Slowing down helps us enjoy things more. It can even make you a better friend because you can take your time to notice how others are feeling. Studies show slowing down helps us think clearly and find new ideas to work out problems.
It’s not always easy to slow down when you have lots to do. If this happens, Arthur recommends giving yourself plenty of time for each task. Try to notice if you start rushing and ask yourself why you need to. Taking short breaks to have a rest. When life is busy, listening to calm music or finding a quiet corner and reading a book help you to take time out and recharge (再充电) your mind.
37．How does the writer introduce “hurry sickness” in the second paragraph
A．By telling stories. B．By listing numbers.
C．By asking questions. D．By giving examples.
38．According to the passage, how does slowing down help us
A．It makes us see and hear things far away.
B．It teaches us how to prevent busy traffic.
C．It fixes mistakes when we take life faster.
D．It helps us find new ways to work out problems.
39．What does Amy Arthur recommend to prevent rushing
A．Taking a break before doing the tasks. B．Asking others to do the tasks with you.
C．Doing everything as quickly as possible. D．Giving yourself enough time for each task.
40．What is the purpose of the passage
A．To give tips on how to enjoy the free time better.
B．To share ideas about how to complete more tasks.
C．To advise people to slow down and enjoy the life.
D．To question those who enjoy a slow living lifestyle.
