26、from American computer company Dell Technologies led a study partnering with neuroscience company EMOTIV showing a link between bad technology and higher stress levels of employees.The research involved experiments in which brainwaves were monitored as people were put through a series of bad technol

27、ogy experiences. The experiments involved adults of many ages with different levels of computer skills. Subjects were tested with simple computer problems, liketroubled sign-in operations. Others dealt with slow-speed connections to the Internet. Still others experienced system crashes.The moment pe

28、ople started using bad technology, we saw a doubling of their levels of stress, said Olivier Oullier, president of EMOTIV. The experiments showed that technology-related stress had a lasting effect.In addition to tech failures affecting the mental health of employees, the problems can also affect a

29、companys business, the research found. For example, bad problems can reduce productivity, especially that of younger workers. Bad experiences affect you regardless of computer literacy, said Cile Montgomery, who leads customer experience efforts for Dell. But young people seem to be even more impact

30、ed, because they expect technology to work.In the real world, such effects were possibly more severe because the subjects knew they were involved in an experiment so they may not have been as personally affected by the results. Oullier also said the continuing coronavirus crisis has sharply increase

31、d stress levels. So real tech problems drive up those already high stress levels.Another issue is that many employees are working remotely and this can also add to tech difficulties. In an office, computer support helpers are usually available to help workers solve tech problems. But working from a

32、kitchen or home office, employees are often on their own.When youre stuck at home and all you have is a computer provided by your employer, you might not have access to tech support, Oullier said. Thats why its so important when youre remote, to have technology that works.28. How did the researchers

A brochure.DBy now, it is pretty well understood that we regularly pay for things in ways other than using money. Sometimes we pay still with cash. But we also pay for things with data, and more often, with our t

36、ime and attention. We effectively hand over access to our minds in exchange for something free, like email, streaming video or online shopping pages. As opposed to paying attention, we actually spend attention, agreeing to the view ads in exchange for something we really want.The centrality of that

37、deal in our lives makes it unacceptable that there are companies who seize our time and attention for absolutely nothing in exchange, and indeed, without permission at all-otherwise known as attention theft.Attention theft happens anywhere you find your time and attention taken without permission, l

38、ike the new, targeted advertising screens in hospital waiting rooms, the airlines that play full-volume advertising from a screen right in front of your face, or the advertising-screens in office elevators. These arc just few examples in what is a growing category. Combined, they threaten to make us

39、 live life in a screen-lined cocoon(繭), shrunken and incapable of independent thought.Then, what makes it theft? Advances in neuroscience over the last several decades make it clear that our brain s resources are unconsciously triggered(觸發(fā))by sound and movement; therefore the screens seize rare ment

40、al resources. Meanwhile, in the law, theft is typically defined as the taking control of a resource under such circumstances as to acquire the major part of its economic value or benefit. Given the established market value of time and attention, when taken without permission or compensation, it real

41、ly is not much different from someone taking money out of your pocket. Thus, when the firms selling public-screen advertising to target audiences brag of rapid growth and billions in profit, those are actually earnings made場stealing from us.32. What phenomenon is described in Paragraph 1?A. Preferen

42、ce for cash. B. Consumption of attention.C. Payments in shopping. D. Addiction to mass media.33. How does the writer show the wide spread of attention theft?A. By making a definition. B. By analyzing causes.C. By giving examples. D. By predicting results.34. Why is attention theft considered as a th
