irga5000 [103]

The author is trying to convey that in recent years, the extinction rate for many animal species has significantly increased. He began his point in the first sentence of the excerpt: “Species are disappearing at an accelerating rate through human action, primarily habitat destruction but also pollution and the introduction of exotic species into residual natural environments.” Then, he further emphasizes his point in the sentence: “As the last forests are felled in forest strongholds like the Philippines and Ecuador, the decline of species will accelerate even more.” Which is immediately followed by another sentence that supports his argument: “In the world as a whole, extinction rates are already hundreds or thousands of times higher than before the coming of man.

Trying new things on the job is one way of staying sharp
Semenov [28]

It certainly is. Routine at work can lead to monotony, when we constantly repeat already well-learned actions. Routine can make us somehow sure, but not too much. Security arising from routine over time becomes a cause of lack of motivation, and therefore a loss of sharpness. Sometimes we think it's better not to face new challenges, as this could lead to mistakes that can cost us at work. It is desirable to try new things, not only when it is ordered from higher instances, but also on our own initiative, because this promotes our creativity, we become more motivated, happier, and most importantly, more productive, which goes directly to our advantage. This makes us more mobile and, of course, sharper, which is much closer to human nature, which wants to explore. Let us make mistakes, but they are an integral part of our sharpness.
