1. My husband Christopher was once a financial planner.Even though he couldn’t
balance our budget，his clients trusted him completely and he made them feel
secure.In exchange they paid him very well.We had a nice life then.At that time，my yoga studio(瑜伽馆)was just starting to make a profit，and I had recently decorated it.At last，I was in control of my working life and poured my heart and soul into making it succeed.
When we first met，I fell hard for Christopher right away,although I wouldn’t call it love.I’d never been with a man who was prettier than I was,but after a while I got used to this，and it didn’t bother me so much.I was recovering from a broken heart and needed something to help me move on.If it wasn’t love,it was good
enough，and when he asked me to marry him I jumped at the chance，knowing that it might be my last.
Things started out so well.I was working steadily and Christopher was patiently climbing up the ladder in his department.Then，without any warning，one gray winter afternoon in year five，he just upped and left his desk at the bank，handed in his resignation，and came home and told me he wanted to start an interior design business.
He has always loved mixing and matching，and has a real eye for color,texture，and shape，but the idea of turning a hobby into a business wasn’t something we had ever discussed.I thought the stress of his job was becoming too much and perhaps he would take a few months off over the spring and summer to relax and get the idea out of his system.I didn’t believe he could be serious.But once he had a few clients，he began to draw up plans，ordering catalogues and turning our empty workshop into a kind of makeshift studio with all of his sketches pinned to the wall.After spending a lot of time and money on all of this preparation，and really doing quite a nice job of it，he called each client in turn and apologized，saying he wouldn’t be able to design their living spaces after all.

2. In a quiet，darkened lecture room，you begin a frustrating fight against
fatigue.The overhead projector hums，and you cannot concentrate on the slides.You stop absorbing information and become absentminded.The professor lost you a long time ago.You are bored.
Virtually everyone gets bored once in a while.Most of us chalk it up to a dull environment.“The most common way to define boredom in Western culture is ‘having nothing to do，’”says psychologist Stephen Vodanovich of the University of West Florida.And indeed，early research into the effects of boredom focused on people forced to perform dull tasks，such as working a factory assembly line.
But boredom is not merely an natural property of the circumstances,researchers say.Rather this perception is subjective and rooted in aspects of
consciousness.Levels of boredom vary among people：some individuals are far less liable to boredom than others—and some，such as extroverts(性格外向者),are more likely to have this feeling.
Thus，a new generation of scientists is coping with the psychological
interpretations of this most tedious of human emotions—and they have found that it is more complicated than is commonly known.Researchers say that boredom is not a unified concept but rather comes in several flavors.Level of attention,an aspect of
