左手畫圓、右手畫方這樣的場景大家在電視劇里都見過吧。專業(yè)人士把這樣的表現(xiàn)描述為“分配注意力的能力很強”，也就是說，這些人能夠同時關(guān)注不同的兩件事，而且還能把它們都做好。用我們今天要說的這個詞來表示，他們就是supertasker了。

The term "supertasker" is given to individuals able to successfully accomplish two or more tasks at once—a quality possessed by less than 2.5 percent of people.

Supertasker（超級工作者）這個詞是用來指代那些能夠同時成功完成兩件以上任務(wù)的人，具備這種素質(zhì)的人在全部人口中所占的比例不到2.5％。

A new University of Utah study on distraction in the driver's seat finds that a very small percentage of participants were able to do other things successfully while driving (in the study, it was solving math problems and memorizing words) without a drop in performance on any task. In fact, some of these supertaskers performed better while multitasking than they did while completing the tasks alone.

美國猶他大學(xué)新近一項針對開車時一心二用的研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，確實有很少一部分人能夠在開車的同時完成其他任務(wù)（在該研究中，駕車者需要解答數(shù)學(xué)問題，還要背單詞），而且各項任務(wù)都未出差錯。事實上，有些超級工作者在一心二用時完成任務(wù)的表現(xiàn)比單獨完成一件任務(wù)時要更好。
