章节摘录

　　With thousands of people traveling every day as a part of their jobs， there is great concern aboutthe effect of jet lag on business travelers. In the world of international business， many men andwomen have trouble performing their jobs because they feel tired and sick from all their traveling.Businesspeople are not the only professionals who suffer from jet lag. Professional sports playersalso find that jet lag affects their performance. I have recently read a health report and it looks at theproblem of jet lag in professional baseball.　　You see， researchers have wondered about how jet lag affects the job performance of peoplewho travel for a living. The problem is that it is very difficult to measure exactly how jet lag affectsmost travelers， how can we measure the performance of， say， an executive who travels to anothercountry to make a business deal？ This is where the idea of looking at baseball comes in， so bylooking at whether baseball teams win or lose games， researchers believe that we can see how jet lagaffects performance in sports， business， and other jobs.　　In the study， doctors looked at baseball records from 2001 to 2004. They studied theperformance of 19 teams from the Eastern and Pacific time zones， looking at the results of the twogames immediately after a team traveled from one coast to the other. The study shows that changingtime zones may hurt the performance of West Coast baseball teams traveling east for a game， but notEast Coast teams traveling west. The reason， the researchers think， is that people traveling eastsuffer more from the symptoms of jet lag.　　An example of this effect can be seen in the hesvo6seven league championship series played in2003 between the San Francisco Giants and the Atlanta Braves. The games are played in the homecities of each team， so in 2003 the Atlanta Braves and the San Francisco Giants played the first twogames in Atlanta， the next three games in San Francisco， and the last two games in Atlanta. In thiscontest， Atlanta won four of the seven games and was the winner of the series. Researchers believethat the San Francisco Giants lost because they played more games away from home and thereforehad more jet lag.　　We know from past studies that the symptoms of jet lag are stronger when a person travelseast. This is because when we travel east， our day becomes shorter， and a shorter day is moredilficult to adjust to. So the players from San Francisco were at a disadvantage when they traveledeast for a game in Atlanta. The researchers think that the San Francisco team had more of the symptoms caused by jet lag-problems such as headaches， tiredness， and difficulty thinking clearly.All of these symptoms could result in poor performance by baseball players.　　However， this is only the first study to look at the effect of jet lag on sports， and more researchis needed. Other scientists say that this research doesnt prove that jet lag causes poor performancein baseball games. This study only looked at baseball records for three years， and much moreinformation must he studied before we can decide if the losses are truly a result of jet lag and notsome other reason.　　What about the "home team advantage"？ Yes， the positive effects of the "home teamadvantage" are well known. Its much easier for a team to play a game at home where they can sleepin their own beds and where the local fans can come to the game and cheer for the team. However，jet lag adds to the disadvantage for the team thats playing away from home. So when the SanFrancisco team traveled east to play in Atlanta， they were at a disadvantage in two ways： They wereplaying away from home and they had strong jet lag from traveling east.　　Questions 91. How do husinesspeople often feel from all their traveling？　　Questions 92. According to the report， why did researchers study jet lag in baseball？　　Questions 93. Researchers analyzed the performance of some baseball teams. Where are these teams from？　　Questions 94. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a symptom of jet lag？　　Questions 95. Which of the following statements is true according to the health report？Passage 20　　Questions 96 to 100 are based on the following talk.　　The Parker Pen Company had been doing business internationally since 1902. In that time， thecompany has collected many reports about customs in different countries. In 1985， Parker Pen askedRoger Axtell， one of its international sales representatives， to collect these reports in a book aboutcultural differences. The result is a series of hooks called Dos and Taboos aroud the World.　　The books deal with all sorts of customs， but the information about eating gives an idea of thechallenges an international traveler faces. Customs for dining with guests vary so much from onecountry to another that you could do something polite in one country that has a completely differentmeaning in another. Here is one classic example：a host in the United States offers a guest fromJordan more food at dinner. The guest refuses and the host does not offer again. The Jurdanian maybe shocked and hungry because in Jordan， it is polite for the host to offer the food several timeswhile it is polite for guests to refuse， even if they want more. Then what happens when someonefrom Jordan travels to Zambia？ There， according to Axtell， it is impolite for the host to offer foodfirst. If you arent aware of this custom， you may all be hungry！　　What about serving yourself more to drink？ In many Asian countries： you can fill everyoneelses glasses， hut not your own. You will have to wait for someone else to offer you more to drink.However， if you are a woman in Italy， dnnt pour your neighbor a glass. Some people do notconsider this appropriate behavior for a woman. If you do pour the wine， think twice about whichhand you use. In Bolivia and Chile， most people consider it incorrect to pour the wine with your lefthand.
