感悟:如何让刻意练习参与到日常工作中。可能心中要时刻默念:多点挑战。能为难的地方自己就不要手软。时刻感受到自己的肌肉(精神/肉体)在拉伸,这就对了。总之,虐自己。

Best

They tried different tactics in different situations, learning how best to respond to what the other guys were doing.

作为副词well的最高级,best修饰动词时可以同the一起出现,也可以不要the,有the的时候语气更为强调。【例如】Who sings (the)best of all the boys in your class? 你班里的男孩子,谁唱歌唱得最好?但是只有多个事物相互比较时才可以加the,同一事物不同场合的比较就不能加the。【例如】Work out where and how these forces would best(*the best) be used. 弄清楚这些力量最好在什么地方以什么方式来使用。

best作为副词,放在to be之后,一个动词过去分词之前,往往可以表示一种判断,即“最好对之加以(某种行动)”,此时这个to be pp尽管pp的动词是瞬时的第四类动词,也可以用一般现在时,因为这个句子已经不是通常意义上的叙述句,而是一个判断句,相当于It is best to inf. X (X本是主语,但在此相当于宾语)。【例如】Going to court can be an expensive, time consuming and gut wrenching experience that is best avoided.打官司费钱费时间,又揪心揪肺,最好避免。
