【试试这样说】9-12月雅思考官真的“超集中”！

1. Do you find it hard to concentrate when you were young?

Actually, the period I couldn’t concentrate was quite few since I have remembered things. I’m quite sure that i could concentrate the whole class time, about 45 min or one hour, since i was a pupil. At that time, I was usually praised due to such ‘ability’. Before primary school, i only concentrated when doing handcraft things, like painting or paper folding.

事实上，从我能记事起，我不能集中注意力的时间就挺短的。我很确定我可以集中整个课堂的时间，大约45分钟或一个小时，因为我是学生。那时候，我经常因为这样的“能力”而受到表扬。小学以前，我只专注于做手工的事情，比如绘画或折叠纸。

2. What may distract you when you’re trying to stay focused?

Well, I feel like that the thing distracting me may be the noise, like loud chatting. I’m not kind of that person living alone - I mean I’m living with my parents, and even i was in Bri*ane, I lived with my landlord and her family. So if i wanna concentrate on something, like writing my essays, the noise made by them really disturbs me. The working tasks could be finished in an hour, if they leaved me a relatively quiet working condition - currently i need another one hour to make those work.

嗯，我觉得让我分心的可能是噪音，比如大声聊天。我不是那种独居的人，我和我的父母住在一起，即使我在布里斯班，我也和我的房东和她的家人住在一起。所以，如果我想集中精力做一些事情，比如写论文，他们发出的噪音真的让我很不安。如果他们给我一个相对安静的工作环境，我的工作可以在一个小时内完成 - 但现在，我可能要多花一个小时的时间来完成它。

3. What do you do to help you concentrate?

Headphones, that is my savior. Since I lived with the landlord in Australia, headphones, especially those noise-canceling headphones, i recommend the brand Boss, have helped me a lot. As soon as I put it on, I can hardly hear other sounds. This greatly improves my concentration and my work can be done more efficient.

耳机！我的救命恩人就是耳机。自从我在澳洲和房东在一起住了以后，耳机-尤其是降噪耳机大大帮助了我， 我推荐品牌Boss。一戴上它，我基本就听不到其他的声音了，这大大提高了我的注意力，我的工作完成得又快又好。

4. Is it easy for you to do two things all at once?

It depends on the two things. If I need to use a lot of brains for one thing, such as writing an essay or reading literature, I can only do other very simple things at the same time, such as listening to music or broadcast. If they are simple and no-brainer ones, I can basically do the two things perfectly at the same time.

那要看是哪两种事情了。如果要用很多脑子的一件事情，比如写论文，看文献，我只能同时干另一些特别简单的事情，比如听音乐或者听广播。如果是单纯的不费脑子的事情，我基本上可以很完美的同时做好。
