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.
According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT true?
选项 A、It is easier to overcome start-up fatigue.
B、Performance fatigue occurs when the job we are willing to take gets blocked.
C、One will finally succeed after experiencing the evil circle.
D、Fatigue often accompanies failure.
答案C
解析 推理判断题。由最后一段第一句可知，与performance fatigue相比，stan-up fatigue更容易克服，故A项与题意不符。根据最后一段前三句可知，当我们愿意开始一项工作的时候，如果这项工作受到阻碍，我们感觉到难以克服困难，performance fatigue就会产生，故B项与题意不符。根据第一段第四句可知，疲劳总是伴随失败而存在，故D项与题意不符。C项内容在文章中找不到依据，符合题意。故选C。
