Music is playing. Glasses are clinking. Dozens of conversations are driving up the decibel (分貝) level. Yet among all those distractions, you can tune your attention to just one voice from many. This ability is what researchers call the “cocktailparty effect”.s as if only one person was speaking alone,” says investigator Edward Chang.t very good at multitasking — our brains are wired for “selective attention” and can focus on only one thing at a time. That inborn ability has helped humans survive in a world buzzing with visual and auditory stimulation (刺激). But we keep trying to push the limits with multitasking, sometimes with tragic (悲劇的) consequences. Drivers talking on cellphones, for example, are four times as likely to get into traffic accidents as those who aren39。 Many of those accidents are due to “inattentional blindness”, in which people can, in effect, turn a blind eye to things they aren39。s a pushpull relationship — the more we focus on one thing, the less we can focus on others,” says Diane M. Beck, an associate professor of psychology at the University of Illinois. Some people can train themselves to pay extra attention to things that are important — like police officers learn to scan crowds for faces and conductors can listen for individual instruments within the orchestra as a whole. Many more think they can effectively multitask, but are actually shifting their attention rapidly between two things and not getting the full effect of either, experts say.（1）What have scientists in University of California found about “the cocktailparty effect”? A.B.The higher brain processes sounds and images selectively.Sounds are sorted out before reaching the higher brain.（2）What do we learn from the passage?
