Do you find getting up in the morning so difficult that it’s painful This might be so-called laziness, but Dr Johnson has a new explanation. He has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle,During the hours when you labour through your work you may say that you’re "hot". That’s true. The time of day when you feel most energetic is the peak of your body temperature cycle. No one has discovered why this is so, but it leads to such familiar monologues (自言自语) as: "Get up, John! You’ll be late for work again!" The possible explanation to the trouble is that John is at his temperature-and-energy peak in the evening. Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives get to know what these energy cycles mean, and which cycle each member of the family has.You can’t change your energy cycle, but you can learn to make your life fit it better. Habit can help. Dr Johnson believes. Maybe you’re sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up late anyway. Counteract (对抗) your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up later than you want to. If your energy is low in the morning but you have a job of great importance to do early in the day, rise before your usual hour. This won’t change your cycle, but you’ll get up steam (鼓起干劲)and work better at your low point.Get off to a slow start which saves your energy. Get up with a leisurely yawn (呵欠) and stretch. Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the troublesome search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before. Whenever possible, do routine work in the afternoon and save tasks requiring more energy or concentration for your sharper hours. If a person finds getting up early a problem, most probably（）

Psychologists take opposing opinion of how external rewards, from warm praise to cold cash, affect motivation and creativity. Behaviorists, who make the study of the relationship between actions and their results, argue that rewards can make improvement in performing at work and school. Cognitive (认知学派的) researchers, who study various fields of mental life, maintain that rewards often destroy creativity by encouraging dependence on approval and presents from others.The latter point has gained many supporters, especially among educators. But the careful use of small monetary (金钱的) rewards sparks creativity in grade-school children, suggesting that properly presented inducements (刺激) indeed aid inventiveness, in accordance to a study in the June Journal of Personality and Social Psychology."If kids know they’re working for a reward and can keep close attention to a task relatively full of challenges, they show the most creativity," says Robert Eisenberger of the University of Delaware in Newark. "But it’s simple to vanish creativity by giving rewards for poor performance or creating too much anticipation for rewards."A teacher who continually pays attention to rewards or who hands out high grades for ordinary achievement ends up with uninspired students, Eisenberger holds. As an example of the latter point, he notes more and more efforts at major universities to tighten grading standards and restore failing grades,In earlier grades, the use of so-called token economies, in which students handle challenging problems and receive performance-based points toward valued rewards, shows promise in raising effort and creativity, the Delaware psychologist claims. Psychologists are divided with regard to their attitudes toward（）
听下面一段对话，回答下列问题。M: Hello, Professor Johnson.W: Hello, Tony. So what shall we work on todayM: Well, the problem is that this writing assignment isn’t coming out right. What I thought I was writing on was to talk about what particular sport means to me when I participate in.W: What sport did you chooseM: I decided to write about cross country skiing.W: What are you going to say about skiingM: That’s the problem. I thought I would write about how peaceful it is to be out in the country.W: So why is that a problemM: As I start describing how quiet it is to be out in the woods. I keep mentioning how much effort it takes to keep going. Cross-country skiing isn’t so easy as some people think. It takes a lot of energy, but that’s not part of my paper. So I guess I should leave it out. But now I don’t know how to explain that feeling of peacefulness without explaining how hard you have to work for it. It all fits together. It’s not like just sitting down somewhere and watching the clouds roll by. That’s different.W: Then you’ll have to include that in your point. The peacefulness of cross-country skiing is the kind you earn by effort. Why leave that out Part of your point you knew before hand but part you discovered as you wrote. That’s common, rightM: Yeah, I guess so. What should be common in writing papers（）
