问题     Failure is probably the most fatiguing experience a person ever has. There is nothing more exhausting than not succeeding—being blocked, not moving ahead. It is an evil circle. Failure breeds fatigue, and fatigue makes it harder to get to work, which adds to the fatigue.
    We experience this tiredness in two main ways, as start-up fatigue and performance fatigue. In the former case, we keep putting off a task that we are forced to take up. Either because it is too tedious or because it is too difficult, we avoid it. And the longer we postpone it, the more tired we feel.
    Such start-up fatigue is very real, even not actually physical, not something in our muscles and bones. The remedy is obvious, though perhaps not easy to apply; willpower exercise. The moment I find myself turning away from a job, or putting it under a pile of other things I have to do, I clear my desk of everything else and attack the objectionable item first. To prevent start-up fatigue, always treat the most difficult job first.
    Performance fatigue is more difficult to handle. Here we are willing to get started, but we cannot seem to do the job right. Its difficulties appear to be insurmountable and however hard we work, we fail again and again. The mounting experience of failure carries with it an ever-increasing burden of mental fatigue. In such a situation, I work as hard as I can-then let the unconscious take over.
Which of the following can be called an evil circle?

选项 A、Success-zeal-success-zeal.
B、Failure-tiredness-failure-tiredness.
C、Failure-zeal-failure-tiredness.
D、Success-exhaustion-success-exhaustion.

答案B

解析 细节理解题。根据题干中的核心词 “evil circle”可把答案定位到第一段第三、四句。其大意是:这是一个恶性循环。失败导致疲劳,疲劳使得投入工作更难,由此还会增加疲劳。
