①Why do we do the things we do? What drives our behavior? Researchers have suggested different ways of thinking about motivation (动机), including looking at whether motivation comes from outside or inside a person.

②Extrinsic (外来的) motivation is when you decide to do something because you want to get a reward or avoid punishment. Intrinsic (内在的) motivation is when you do something because you find it enjoyable. The behavior itself is its own reward.

③There are many advantages of intrinsic motivation. Firstly, it's lasting. It makes people willing to face challenges and work hard to achieve their goals. Besides, people with intrinsic motivation have a greater sense of satisfaction.

④Most people think intrinsic motivation is best, but it is not always possible in every situation. Sometimes a person has an unpleasant task and he may not have internal (内部的) wish to complete it. That's when we need extrinsic motivation. But studies have shown that offering too-many external (外部的) rewards can reduce (减少) intrinsic motivation. For example, in a study, children were playing with the toys they liked. When they were externally rewarded for their behavior, they became less interested in the toys.

⑤Both extrinsic and intrinsic motivation play a key role in learning. Experts have argued that traditional education pays too much attention to external rewards, such as grades. This undermines the intrinsic motivation that students might already have. However, others have suggested that extrinsic motivation can help students feel more knowledgeable in class. It helps to build up their intrinsic motivation.

⑥Understanding how each type of motivation works and when it is likely to be useful can help people complete tasks and improve their learning.

 阅读下列短文,从下面每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。

If you are hiking with a friend who is overweight, you may hear them say that the hills look steeper(更陡峭的) and the distances look farther away than what they really are. Is your friend lazy? Actually, this is just what the world looks like in their eyes.

 Scientists from Colorado State University show that being overweight distorts perception(扭曲知觉). They think distances are farther away than they actually are.

 In one study, scientists asked 66 people of different weights and sizes to say how far away a traffic cone (交通围标) was. The cone was actually 25m away. Those who were about 57kg thought it was just15m from them, but those who weighed about 146kg saw it as being 30m away.

 So far from being crazy. Overweight people simply see the world differently when thinking about exercise. The heavy weight can feel like a load (装载物) to carry.

"If you find yourself out hiking with a heavy backpack, hills are going to seem steeper, distances are going to look farther, a gap across a river are going to look bigger." Jessica Witt from Colorado State University told the Guardian.

 It's this idea that if you have to make more of an effort to climb that hill because you are carrying this heavy backpack, the hill is going to look more challenging.

"You are not seeing that hill as it is. You are seeing the world through your ability to act. You have less ability because you are having to carry this backpack." Witt said.
