What is better, to multitask or to concentrate on a single task?

怎么做更好，同时多任务处理还是专注于一项任务？

Option 1: You are focusing on a single task and ignore all distractions and interruptions.

选项 1：您专注于一项任务，忽略所有干扰和中断。

Theresa May has devoted her time in Downing Street to a single task: getting Britain out of the European Union.

特蕾莎·梅在唐宁街只做了一件事：脱欧。

Instead of being a single robot that is specifically made for a single task, robogamis are optimized to do multi-tasks.

robogamis 不是专门为单一任务制作的单一机器人，而是经过优化以执行多项任务。

So if you can find a way, either intrinsically or extrinsically, to get more interested in a single task that you want to do.

所以说，无论是发自内心的还是外在的，去发现，你需要做的事情里更多的乐趣。

Nearly every single task on the ISS is carefully scripted, and astronauts have their activities planned, in step-by-step fashion, down to the finest detail.

在国际空间站，几乎每一项任务都是精心编排的，宇航员的活动都是按部就班地计划好的，细致到每一个细节。

So a person with ADHD cannot inhibit these distractors, and that's why they can't focus for a long time on a single task.

因此， 患有多动症的人无法抑制这些干扰因素，这就是他们无法长时间专注于一项任务的原因。

You need to commit to a single task and you don't want that to do list to be a temptation to jump to something else once it gets difficult.

你需要致力于一个单一的任务，你不希望这个任务清单成为一个诱惑，一旦它变得困难就跳转到别的事情上去。

Each and every individual would have a single task and the only people who knew how it related to other tasks were the few highest ranked scientists.

每个人都有一项任务，唯一知道它与其他任务有何关系的人是少数排名最高的科学家。

This results in reserving the same amount of memory for every task based on the needs of the single most demanding task, which means the GPU is under utilized especially with complex programs.

其结果就是根据需求最高的单个任务，为所有任务预留相同的内存量，这会造成 GPU 的利用率不足，特别是在运行复杂的程序时。

Now, I talk a lot on the channel about the Pomodoro technique, setting a timer for 25 minutes and working on that single task you selected and nothing else until the timer goes off.

现在我会在这个频道里讲一些关于番茄工作法，设一个 25 分钟的定时器，选择做一个任务，不做其他事，直到结束。

More focused on a single task, finding resources and asteroids, and bringing those resources to a market that's going to start here in lower Earth orbit and grow into the solar system.

更专注于一个单一的任务， 寻找资源和小行星，并将这些资源带到一个市场， 这个市场将从这里的低地球轨道开始， 并发展到太阳系。

But because the brain has billions of neurons, of which millions could be involved in any single task, scientists have puzzled over how it knows which synapses to tweak and by how much.

但由于大脑拥有数十亿个神经元，其中数百万个神经元可能参与任何一项任务，因此科学家们一直困惑于大脑如何知道需要调整哪些突触， 以及调整多少。

Artificial intelligence tasked with say solving a mathematical problem, could pursue that task so single-mindedly that, along the way, it creates an environment fatal to humans, simply because it hasn't been programmed to recognize this.

人工智能的任务是解决一个数学问题，它可以一心一意地完成这项任务， 以至于在这个过程中， 它创造了一个对人类致命的环境， 仅仅是因为它没有被编程来识别这一点。

And this is exciting because a robot designed for a single task has a fixed architecture and that robot will perform the single task well but it will perform poorly on a different task in a different environment.

这是令人兴奋的，因为为单一任务设计的机器人具有固定的架构，并且该机器人可以很好地执行单一任务，但在不同环境中执行不同任务时会表现不佳。

This means to clear up your work space, your desk, and your desktop on your computer, and setting that space back to a state where it's prepped for that single task you decided to work on and nothing else.

这意味着清理你的工作空间、你的桌子和你电脑上的桌面，并将这些空间设置为为你决定要做的单一任务而准备的状态。
