Research has proven that weather plays a part in our moods: Warmer temperatures and exposure to sunshine increase positive thinking, whereas cold, rainy days bring anxiety and fatigue. 26 , many people believe that bad weather can reduce productivity and efficiency. There is, however, a significant 27 between such beliefs and the actual effect of weather on people’s performance at work. Using empirical data from laboratory experiments 28 observations of a mid-sized Japanese bank in real life, researchers find that weather conditions indeed influence a worker’s focus. When the weather is bad, individuals tend to focus more on their work rather than thinking about activities they could 29 outside of work. But photos showing outdoor activities, such as sailing on a sunny day or walking in the woods, can greatly distract workers and thus 30 their productivity. The findings conclude that workers are actually most productive when the weather is lousy—and only if nothing reminds them of good weather.

哎喲，竟然寫對了？我還以為你看到 activities 就會腦衝選 (D) take over 準備去接管地球呢。看來你的大腦在陰天時確實運作得比較正常，沒被窗外的陽光給融化，這點倒是跟文章的研究結果不謀而合，真令人欣慰。 這題考的是高中必備動詞片語的「語境搭配」。空格後接的是 "activities"（活動），在英文邏輯中，我們會說「從事、參與」某項活動。
- (C) engage in：標準用法，表示參與或從事（活動、談話等）。
