18、ight ResolutionMillions of Americans began 2014 with the same resolution they started 2013 with, a goal of losing weight. However, setting weight loss as a goal is a mistake.To reach our goal of losing weight the output, we need to control what we eat the input . That is, we tend to care about the o

19、utput but not to control the input. This is a bad way to construct goals. The alternative is to focus your resolution on the input. Instead of resolving to lose weight, try an actionable resolution: “Ill stop having dessert for lunch,” or “Ill walk every day for 20 minutes.” Creating a goal that foc

20、uses on a well-specified input will likely be more effective than concentrating on the outcome.Recently a new science behind incentives （激励） , included in education, has been discussed. For example, researcher Roland Fryer wanted to see what works best in motivating children to do better in school.

21、In some cases, he gave students incentives based on input, like reading certain books, while in others, the incentives were based on output, like results on exams. His main finding was that incentives increased achievement when based on input but had no effect when based on output. Fryers conclusion

22、 was that the incentives for inputs might be more effective because students do not know how to do better on an exam, aside from general rules like “study harder.” Reading certain books, on the other hand, is a well-set task over which they have much more control.As long as you have direct control o

23、ver your goal, you have a much higher chance of success. And its easier to start again if you fail, because you know exactly what you need to do.If you want to cut down on your spending, a good goal would be making morning coffee at home instead of going to a cafe, for example. This is a well-specif

24、ied action-based goal for which you can measure your success easily. Spending less money isnt a goal because its too general. Similarly, if you want to spend more time with your family, dont stop with this general wish. Think bout an actionable habit that you could adopt and stick to, like a family

25、movie night every Wednesday.In the long run, these new goals could become a habit.8. The writer thinks that setting weight loss as a goal is a mistake because _ .A. it is hard to achieve for most Americans B. it is focused too much on the resultC. it is dependent on too many things D. it is based on

26、 actionable decisions9. In Roland Fryers research, some students did better than the others because _ .A. they obeyed all the general rulesB. they paid more attention to examsC. they were rewarded for reading some booksD. they were motivated by their classmates10. According to the writer, which of t

27、he following statements is a good goal?A. “Ill give up desert.” B. “Ill study harder.”C. “Ill cut down my expense.” D. “Ill spend more time with my family.”11. The writer strongly believes that we should _ .A. develop good habits and focus on the outcomeB. pick specific actions that can be turned in

28、to good habitsC. be optimistic about final goals and stick to themD. set ambitious goals that can balance the input and output【答案】8. B 9. C 10. A 11. B本文是一篇说明文。从新年美国人的减肥计划开始，谈到减肥成功的关键。由此，作者引出Roland Fryer做的一项实验，该实验表明，当关注输入（开始）时，激励才发生作用。要想达到目标，必须重视目标，而不是根据结果调整行动。【8题详解】根据文章第二段“To reach our goal of losi

29、ng weight - the output, we need to control what we eat - the input （ 输入）. That is, we tend to care about the output but not to control the input”可知为了实现我们减肥的目的，我们需要控制我们的输入，而不是只关注结果（输出）。这就是说我们为自己设立减肥的目标的错误所在是：output/outcome（输出/结果）而不是“input”，the outcome与the result是同义词，故选B。【9题详解】根据文章第三段的“In some case ，h

30、e gave students incentives based on input，like reading certain books，while in others，the were based on output，like results on exams.His main finding was that incentives increased achievement when based on input but had no effect on output. ”“ the incentives for inputs might be more effective ”Readin

31、g certain books, on the other hand, is a well-set task over which they have much more control.”可知当以输入为基础的时候，激励会有很好的结果。再根据第三段“I”可以知道Roland Fryer把input（即阅读）和output（考试结果）作为两种激励变量，得到的结果是input的效果好于output。故D项说法：奖励他们读书是有效的。故D正确。【10题详解】根据全文内容可知，“losing weight”、“results on exams”、“study harder”、 “cut down on your spending”、“spend more time with your family”都强调结果，是太泛的目标，不易达到成功；而“control what we eat”、“stop having desert” 、“ walk every day”、“making morning coffee at hom
