I read somewhere that we spend a full third of our lives waiting. But where are we doing all of this waiting, and what does it mean to an impatient society like ours? To understand the subject, let's take a look at three kinds of "waits".
The very typical form of waiting is the Watched-Pot Wait. It is without doubt the most boring of all. Take ?lling up the kitchen sink(洗碗池)as an example. There is completely nothing you can do while this is going on but keep both eyes ?xed on the sink until it's full. During these waits, the brain ?ies away from the body and has your head in the clouds until the water runs out of the sink and onto your socks. This kind of wait makes the waiter helpless and mindless.
A cousin to the Watched-Pot Wait is the Forced Wait. This one requires the waiter to do in a controlled way and follow the directions. Properly preparing noodle soup required a Forced Wait. Directions are very clear. "Bring three cups of water to boil, add mix, cook it slowly for three minutes, stop heating, let stand ?ve minutes." I have my doubts that anyone has actually followed the directions strictly. After all, Forced Waiting requires patience.
Perhaps the most powerful kind of waiting is the Lucky-Break Wait. This kind of wait is unusual in that it is for the most part voluntary(自愿的). Unlike the Forced Wait, which is also voluntary, waiting for your lucky break does not necessarily mean that it will happen.
Turning one's life into a waiting game requires trust and hope, and is strictly for the optimists(乐观主义者)among us. On the surface it seems as ridiculous(荒谬的)as following the directions on soup mixes, but the Lucky-Break Wait well serves those who are willing to do it. As long as one doesn't come to pass on it, wishing for a few good things to happen never hurts anybody.
We certainly do spend a lot of our time waiting. The next time you're standing at the sink waiting for it to ?ll while cooking noodle soup that you'll have to eat until a large bag of cash falls out of the sky, be con?dent and patient. Good things come to those who wait, better things come to those who wait longer. You're probably just as busy as the next guy.
1.What is the difference between the Forced Wait and the Watched-Pot Wait?
A.The Watched-Pot Wait connects body and brain. B.The Forced Wait requires some self-control.
C.The Watched-Pot Wait needs directions. D.The Forced Wait makes people active.
2.The writer probably agrees that _________.
A.The Lucky-Break Wait doesn't give people faith and hope.
B.Everyone really follows the directions during the Forced Wait.
C.The Lucky-Break Wait doesn't always bring the expected result.
D.The waiter doesn't need to do anything during the Watched-Pot Wait.
3.What is the writer's main purpose in writing this passage?
A.To question about people's behaviors of waiting.
B.To show why people are impatient while waiting.
C.To help people know their feelings while waiting.
D.To advise us not to lose heart while we're waiting.
