- 13. Part 5You are going to read an article nigh the effects of digital media on people's minds.For questions 31-36, choose the answer (A.B,C or D) which y'all think ts best according to the text. In the examination,mark your answers on the separate answer sheet.In an article in Science,Patricia Grccncld,a developmental psychologist who runs UCLA'due south Children's Digital Media Center,reviewed dozens of studies on how different media technologies inuence our cognitive abilities.Some of the studies indicated that certain computer tasks,like playing video games,increasethe speed at which people can shift their focus among icons and other images on screens.Other studies,yet,found that such rapid shifts in focus,even if performed adcptly,result in less rigorous andmore automatic thinking. In one experiment at an American university.half a class of students was allowed to use Net-continued laptops during a lecture,while the other one-half had to go on their computers close.Those who browsed the web performed much worse on a subsequent test of how well they retained the Icctures content.Before experiments revealed that equally the number oflinks in an online document goes up.reading comprehension falls.and as more types of information are placed on :1 screen,we recollect less of What we run into. Greeneld concluded that every medium develops some cognitive skills at the expense of others.Our growing utilise of scrccn-based media,she said,has strengthened visual-spatial intelligence,which tin strengthen [I18 ability to do jobs that involve keeping rails of lots of quickly changing signals.like piloting a aeroplane or monitoring a patient during surgery.Yet,that has been accompanied by new weaknesses in highcrordcr cognitive processes.including abstract vocabulary.mindfulness,reflection,inductive probIemsolving,critical thinking and imagination.We're becoming,in a word,shallower. Studies of our behaviour online support this conclusion.German language researchers found tI'l:1t web browsers usually spend less than ten seconds looking at a folio.Even people doing academic research online tend to bouncc' apace between documents,rarely reading more than a page or two.co-ordinate to a Academy Higher London study.Such menial juggling takes :one big toll.In a recent experiment at Stanford University,researchers gave various cognitive rests to 49 people who do a lot of media multitasking and 52 people who multirask much less frequently.The heavy multiraskers performed poorly on all the tests.They were more easily distracted.had less control over their attention,and were muchTEST 1: READING AND USE OF ENGLISHIs the cyberspace making us stupid? less able to distinguish important data from trivia.The researchers were surprised past the results.They expected the intensive multitaskcrs to have gained some mental advantages.That wasnr the case,though.Infacf.the mulritaskcrs werent fifty-fifty skillful at multitasking.Everything distracts them, said Clifford Nass,1 of thc researchers. Information technology would exist 1 affair if the ill furnishings went away every bit soon equally nosotros turned off our computers and mobiles,simply they don't.The cellular structure of the human being brain,scientists take discovered,adapts readily to the tools we use to nd,shop and share information.By changing our habits of mind,each new engineering strengthens sure neural pathways and weakens Othcrs.The alterations shape the manner we think fifty-fifty when we're not using the applied science.The pioneering ncuroscicnrisr Michael Merzenich bclicvcs our brains are being massively remodelled past our ever-intensifying use of the web and related media.In 2009, he said that he was profoundly worried about the cognitive consequences of the constant distractions and interruptions rhc inrerner bombards us with.The Iongtcrm consequence on the quality of our intellectual lives,he said,could be mortiferous. Not all distractions are bad.As nigh of united states of america know,if we concentrate too intensively on a crude trouble,we can get stuck in a mental oestrus.However,if we let the problem sir unattended for a time,we often return to information technology with a fresh perspective and a burst of creativity.Research by Dutch psychologist Ap Dijksrcrhuis indicates that such breaks in our attention give our unconscious mind time to grapple with a problem,bringing to bear information and cerebral processes unavailable to conscious deliberation.We normally make ameliorate decisions,his experiments rcvcai,if we shift our attention away from a mental challenge for a time. Only Dijksrcrhuiss work too shows that our unconscious idea processes don:engage with a trouble until wcv
