Failure is probably the most exhausting experience a person ever has． There is nothing more tiring than not succeeding． We experience this tiredness in two ways： as start-up fatigue （疲惫） and performance fatigue． In the former case， we keep putting off a task because it is either too boring or too difficult． And the longer we delay it， the more tired we feel． Such start-up fatigue is very real， even if not actually physical， not something in our muscles and bones． The solution is obvious though perhaps not easy to apply： always handle the most difficult job first． Years ago， I was asked to write 102essays on the great ideas of some famous authors． Applying my own rule， I determined to write them in alphabetical （按字母顺序）， never letting myself leave out a tough idea． And I always started the day's work with the difficult task of essay-writing． Experience proved that the rule works． Performance fatigue is more difficult to handle． Though willing to get started， we cannot seem to do the job right． Its difficulties appear so great that， however hard we work， we fail again and again． In such a situation， I work as hard as I can-then let the unconscious take over． When planning Encyclopaedia Britannica （《大英百科全书》）， I had to create a table of contents based on the topics of its articles． Nothing like this had ever been done before， and day after day I kept coming up with solutions， but none of them worked． My fatigue became almost unbearable． One day， mentally exhausted， I wrote down all the reasons why this problem could not be solved． I tried to convince myself that the trouble was with the problem itself， not with me． Relieved， I sat back in an easy chair and fell asleep． An hour later， I woke up suddenly with the solution clearly in mind． In the weeks that followed， the solution which had come up in my unconscious mind provided correct at every step． Though I worked as hard as before， I felt no fatigue． Success was now as exciting as failure had been depressing． Human beings， I believe， must try to succeed． Success， then， means never feeling tired．（1）People with start-up fatigue are most likely to ____ ．A． delay tasksB． work hardC． seek helpD． accept failure（2）What does the author recommend doing to prevent start-up fatigue？ ____ A． Writing essays in strict order．B． Building up physical strength．C． Leaving out the toughest ideas．D． Dealing with the hardest task first．（3）On what occasion does a person probably suffer from performance fatigue？ ____ A． Before starting a difficult task．B． When all the solutions fail．C． If the job is rather boring．D． After finding a way out．（4）According to the author， the unconscious mind may help us ____ ．A． ignore mental problemsB． get some nice sleepC． gain complete reliefD． find the right solution（5）What could be the best title for the passage？ ____ A． Success Is Built upon FailureB． How to Handle Performance FatigueC． Getting over Fatigue： A Way to SuccessD． Fatigue： An Early Sign of Health Problems

scrolling through your facebook news feed, refreshing twitter and watching youtube videos. A smartphone might feel like it's keeping you connected but it can also be a way of isolating yourself.Data from a recent study conducted by researchers at Northwestern University's Feinberg School of Medicine found that the scenario described above--high volume of phone use and a static geographic location--could be linked to depression. The study published in The Journal of Medical Internet Research, also found that depressed people, on average, spend more time on the phone than non-depressed people."People are likely, when on their phones, to avoid thinking about things that are troubling painful feelings or difficult relationships," said David Mohr, one of the study's senior authors and a professor of behavioral psychology at Northwestern, in a statement. "It's an avoidance behavior we see in depression." Mohr also pointed out that depressed people tend to withdraw emotionally and avoid going out--behaviors that are arguably facilitated by the constant entertainment stream available on smartphones.The study's participants consisted of a mix of people with and without prior depression. They completed a questionnaire describing their symptoms before agreeing to have their phone use monitored for two weeks. Using GPS, the researchers tracked their location and the amount of time they spent on the phone. They were then able to identify which participants were depressed using the aggregated phone data, with 87 percent accuracy.Sohrob Saeb, a research fellow at Northwestern, said in the release that phones could be more reliable for diagnosing depression than traditional methods. In standard industry practice, patients are often asked to describe their symptoms by indicating how sad they are on a scale of 1 to 10. According to Saeb, the release reported, these responses can be rote and unreliable. In contrast, the study found, a smartphone can unobtrusively (不引人注目地) and accurately measure a patient's daily activity, providing data that could trigger a health care provider to recognize the need for an intervention.What can be learned from the study conducted by researchers at Northwestern University?A Too much time spent on phones leads to depressionB Depressed people tend to spend more time on phones than othersC Spending more time on phones can help cure depressionD Non-depressed people spend link time on their phones
