　　Passage two

　　Setting the office air conditioning it about twenty two degree Celsius has become standard practice across the world. Numorous guide books across the world and heating ventilation and air conditioning claim office performers peaks at twenty two degrees.

　　Many people indeed find relief from sowing summer temperatures in air conditioned officers (12) but recent studies have challenged the accepted wisdom that a cool office is more productive, reality is more complex. Researchers conducted a review of all studies relating to air conditioning and productivity. (13)They found that twenty two degrees was probably a little chili even at the height of summer.

　　For Python dressed in typical summer clothing and optimal range would be between twenty three and twenty six degrees and people can even tolerate temperatures beyond this comfort zone as long as they can adjust their clothing and expectations. (14)In fact, even on very hot day it makes sense to turn the air conditioning up. People often chase just one optimum temperature and this is understandable when people feel hot but there is the range of at least three to four degrees which does not have any adverse impact.

　　Another issue related to this is that people can become psychologically dependent on air conditioning. If there used an environment which is air conditioned, (15)they tend to prefer lower temperatures, but the studies found that almost all humans became accustomed to the new temperature. It was only at the extreme ends of the temperature range where people's productivity suffered. This range was above twenty six degrees and below nineteen degrees.

　　Q12. What is the accepted wisdom concerning the office environment?

　　Q13. Why did researchers find from the review of all studies relating to air conditioning in productivity?

　　【听力述评】

　　本篇文章属于针对人类使用温度调节器，空调的研究及发现，所以同学们在做题时结合问题中的关键词即可定位听力原句，但同时也考察学员能否根据定位句进行总结及同近义替换能力，进而选出正确选项。所以此题整体难度中等。
