问题    All types of stress study, whether under laboratory or real-life situations, study mechanisms for increasing the arousal level of the brain.
   The brain blood flow studies show that reciting the days of the week and months of the year increases blood flow in appropriate areas, whereas problem solving which demands intense concentration of a reasoning type produces much larger changes in the distribution of blood in the brain.
   Between these basic studies of brain function and real-life situations there is still a considerable gap, but reasonable deduction seems possible to try and understand what happens to the brain. Life consists of a series of events which may be related to work or to our so-called leisure time. Work may be relatively automatic--as with typing, for instance. It requires intense concentration and repetition during the learning phase to establish a pattern in the brain. Then the typist’s fingers automatically move to hit the appropriate keys as she reads the words on the copy.
   However, when she gets tired she makes mistakes much more frequently. To overcome this she has to raise her level of arousal and concentration but beyond a certain point the automatic is lost and thinking about hitting the keys leads to more mistakes.
   Other jobs involve intense concentration such as holding bottles of wine up to a strong light and turning them upside down to look for particles of dirt falling down. This sounds quite easy but experience teaches that workers can do this for only about thirty minutes before they start making a mistake. This is partly because the number of occasions with dirt in the bottle is low and the arousal level, therefore, fails. Scientists have shown that devices to raise arousal level will increase the accuracy of looking for relatively rare events. A recent study of the effect of loss of sheep in young doctors showed that in tests involving a challenge to their medical judgment when short of sleep they raised their arousal level and became better at tests of grammatical reasoning as well. [br] Examining bottles of wine is hard work because ______.
选项 A、the bottle must be held upside down
B、it is difficult to see the particles of dirt
C、it requires high level of automatic
D、most bottles are all right
答案 D
解析 检查酒瓶很费劲，因为大多数瓶子都没问题。第五段开头几句指出：其他的工作牵涉到注意力的高度集中，如把酒瓶子拿起来，放到光线很强的灯下，把瓶身颠倒过来，看酒液中是否有杂质沉淀下来，这件工作听起来容易，但经验表明，这件事工人们仅做半个小时就会出错，部分原因在于酒液中有杂质的几率很低，因此，清醒程度大打折扣。
