特别广播英语第 166 课：Controlling Your Concentration 控制你的注意力-3

Thus it is easy to see that it is highly unlikely that the student who has most of his attention centered on fancying at large will be able to recall even the major points of a lecture. 因此，显而易见，把自己的注意力集中在胡思乱想上的学生甚至不可能回想出讲课的要点。

Lack of concentration is a symptom, not the cause, of difficulty. 缺乏注意力是困难的征兆，而不是起因。

When a student says "I can't concentrate", what he is really saying is, "I can't attend to the task at hand because my distractors are too strong." 当一个学生说"我无法集中注意力"时，他其实在说，"因为分散我的注意力的东西太强，我不能专心手头的工作"

DISTRACTORS ARE OF TWO SORTS - PSYCHOLOGICAL AND PHYSICAL 注意力的干扰有两种：心理上的和物质上的

A distractor is anything which causes attention to vary from a central focal point. 干扰物是任何可以使注意力偏离中心焦点的东西。

In the study situation distractors may be thought of as either psychological or physical in nature. 在学习的情况下，干扰物实际上可以被认为是心理的或者是物质的。

Both types of distractors must be understood before the student can attempt to remedy his lack of concentration. 在学生尝试补救自己注意力缺乏之前，应当首先了解这两种干扰物。

Emotions are the most powerful distractors 情绪是最强大的干扰

The angry man forgets the pain of injury, the fearful man finds it difficult to enjoy pleasure and the tense or anxious person may react violently to the smallest of matters. 生气的人会忘记伤害的疼痛，恐惧的人会发现很难享受快乐，紧张、焦虑的人可能对极小的事情反应强烈。
