大学英语六级历年真题及答案——2009年6月,
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 things I have to do， I clear my desk of everything else and attach 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 can't 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．

In an effort to produce the largest，fastest， the most luxurious ship afloat，the British built the Titanic．It was so superior to anything else on the seas that it was considered"unsinkable"． So sure of this were the owners that they provided lifeboats for only 950of its possible 3，500 passengers．Many passengers were aboard the night it rammed an ice-burg，only two days at sea and more than half way between England and New York，the destination．Because the luxury liner was traveling so fast，it was impossible to avoid the ghostly looking ice-burg．An inextinguishable fire also contributed to the ship's disaster．Panic increased the number of deaths as people jumped into the icy water or fought to be among the few to board the lifeboats．Four hours after the mishap，another ship，the Carpathia，rescued the survivors，less than a third of those originally aboard．The famous Titanic enjoyed only two days of sailing glory on its maiden voyage in 1912before plunging into 12，000feet of water near the coast of Newfoundland，where it lies today．
