We would all appreciate a healthy work-life balance, but even those of us who try to relax outside the office are frustrated by the gentle chime of email at all hours. To our delight and horror, smart-phones and tablets have given us the flexibility to respond to work from anywhere, practically becoming one of the family. 【F1】
Entrepreneurs and executives are known for a round-the-clock devotion to work, in contrast to the four-day-weekgurus, but what toll does availability take for those whose jobs require it?
A recent study links extended work availability with decreased calmness, mood, and energy levels. 【F2】
By looking at industries from technical services to nursing, the study evaluated the effects of being on-call—that is, not at work, but being expected to remain available by phone for questions or customer requests.
Participants marked lower moods the morning after being on-call compared to mornings after days when they were not required to be available, which the researchers believe occurs because readiness to respond makes it harder to recover from work. The possibility alone hindered recovery from work.
These results were strengthened by an association between psychology and physiology. Cortisol (皮质醇 ) is a stress hormone, and changes in Cortisol levels are associated with health problems. 【F3】
While hunter-gatherers probably found these changes useful in preparing for predator attacks, today’s consensus is that the unavoidable daily stressors of modern life change Cortisol levels in ways more harmful than helpful.
Some secrets to avoiding the damages of daily stress lie in the variation between people. In this study, there was wide variation in the effects on the participants. Some people experienced none at all. What accounts for this? That question has led to research in recent years on the flip side of stress, resilience. 【F4】
The body’s response to stress is so complicated that looking at the people who cope well with stress may give more straightforward coping strategies than working from molecular scratch.
Given the present knowledge of stress’s long-term effects on our health, we have two options to consider. We can reduce job stress or maximize recovery afterwards. 【F5】
But so long as we are jumping to answer the phone when work calls, there is little chance of either happening.
As eminent stress researcher Robert Sapolsky noted in a talk at UC Berkeley, not all stress is harmful, but duration is key. "Good stress is transient—it’s not for nothing that you don’t have roller coaster rides going for three weeks."
【F5】
选项
答案
但是只要我们还是立刻起来去接响起的工作电话,以上任何一种情况发生的几率都很渺茫。
解析
①此句为包含条件状语从句的主从复合句,主句为there be结构引出的简单句,of either happening作后置定语修饰主句主语litte chance。②句首的But表明本句与上句为转折关系;so long as引导条件状语从句,该从句本身还包含when引导的时间状语从句;jump to表示“赶快,立即”;either“两者中任一的”,此处表示前一句提到的reduce job stress or maximize recovery afterwards“减少工作压力或在工作结束后最大限度地恢复”中的任意一者。
