In the study of human adaptability, the ecosystem is the total situation in which adaptability occurs. Because human populations have spread throughout the earth, this adaptability varies a great deal. A population in a specific ecosystem adjusts to environmental conditions in ways that ① reflect both present and past conditions. A desert population that has existed in that environment for several millennia will ② differ significantly in its responses to desert conditions from a population that migrated there only in the past generation. A population that has existed longer in a particular environment is more ③ unlikely than a recently settled population to have developed physiological and even genetic characteristics for coping with environmental constraints, such as hypoxia. The more recent inhabitants will have physiological and cultural adjustments attuned to another environment. Adjusting to the new environment may take several generations, and the final result may or may not resemble the adjustments of the ④ original inhabitants. This is particularly true when native populations are available. The newcomers may borrow some of the practices of the original inhabitants in order to achieve a ⑤ satisfactory adjustment to their new habitat.

* physiological: 생리적인 ** hypoxia: 저산소증 *** attuned to: ~에 맞추어진

But, even more significant than physical constraints are the social and cultural ones, both imposed by others and self-imposed.

 

We inhabit worlds [that are not only full of possibility but also foster a variety of possible selves]. ( ① ) In using this concept, we should recognize the considerable constraints placed on realizing the possible and, at times, even being able to envision it. ( ② ) These limitations are, on the one hand, physical and biological; for example, for as much as we would like to be able to fly, this is not possible given our anatomy and the gravity on earth. ( ③ ) Such constraints are transcended in our imagination, and, indeed, visions of the physically impossible inspired generations, across the centuries, from the ancient Greeks’ stories of Icarus to Leonardo da Vinci’s sketches of flying machines. ( ④ ) Ultimately, the impossible became at least partially possible, and humanity is capable today not only of traveling by air but also of reaching outer space. ( ⑤ ) These limitations <placed on discovering and exploring the possible> can be explicit, like in the case of living under harsh totalitarian governments, or implicit, exemplified by the pervasive power of discourses and social representations to shape our thinking without us realizing it.

* anatomy: 해부학적 구조, 해부학 ** transcend: 초월하다 *** exemplify: ~을 예시하다

 

Content of the text: 우리는 가능성으로 가득찬 그리고 다양한 자아를 길러야 하는 세상에 살고 있다. 그러한 곳에는 제약이 있고 그 제약에 대해 우리는 인식을 해야 한다는 글 내용이다.

Some researchers suggest that although successful performance leads to increased efficacy, subsequent levels of performance may decrease due to evaluation errors. More specifically, research has shown that overconfidence may impede performance due to the overestimation of the accuracy of one’s knowledge. For example, highly confident individuals are found to overestimate the precision of their answers and thus underestimate the potential consequences of their decisions. This is particularly relevant for those who possess the power to impact many, such as executives, as the relationship between power and confidence is particularly relevant to understanding how overconfidence may impact executive decision making. More specifically, it was found that the psychological experience of power is related to overconfidence in decision making, which in turn may lead to adverse consequences for the organization and its environment.

* efficacy: 효능 ** impede: 방해하다

Modern philosophies since the rise of evolutionary theory in the 19th century have come to give change a more central place. They see ① constant change in the universe, in the animal world, in populations and social forms. Even the most abstract philosophies have begun to think more in terms of process and time and the flow of events, and less in terms of a ② fixed essence and a rational nature to the world and man. Modern practical attitudes ③ deny the actual change that a constantly revolutionized technology brings in human living. Unlike the medieval cathedral, built to last beyond the memories of men, a modern skyscraper is built to be ④ replaced in due time. A home is not an ancestral dwelling, but a rapid construction that may not survive the last mortgage payment — if you have not moved away by then. The number of people who live today in the house in which they were born is small, and the number of those who glory in the fact is smaller still. We simplify everything and turn to the ⑤ latest model.

* skyscraper: 고층 건물 ** mortgage: (담보) 대출(금), 융자(금)

 

Content of the text: 현대철학은 변화에 더 중심적인 지위를 부여하게 되었다는 글내용이다.

현대의 실용적인 태도는 끊임없이 혁신된 기술이 인간 삶에 가져오는 실질적인 변화들을 반영한다로 해야 올바른 문장이다. 따라서 deny를 reflect로 바꾸어야 한다.
