第一节 七选五 (共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
We are all familiar with the procrastination (拖延) phenomenon. When we procrastinate, we waste our free time and put off important tasks we should do till it's too late. 1 Here, I will share my personal steps which I use to overcome procrastination with great success.
Break your work into little steps. Part of the reason why we procrastinate is because we find the work too overwhelming (巨大的) for us. Break it down into little parts, and then focus on one part at a time. If you still procrastinate after breaking it down, then break it down even further. 2
Change your environment. 3 Look at your work desk and your room. Do they make you want to work or do they make you want to sleep? If it's the latter, you should begin to change your workspace.
Create a detailed timeline with specific deadlines. Having just one deadline for your work is like an invitation to procrastinate. 4 Break down your project, and then create an overall timeline with specific deadlines for each small task. In this way, you know you have to finish each task by a certain date.
5 I'm pretty sure if you spend just 10 minutes talking to people like Steve Jobs or Bill Gates, you'll be more inspired to act than if you spend the 10 minutes doing nothing. The people we are with influence our behavior.
A.Tell others about your goals.
B.Hang out with people who inspire you to take action.
C.Having a companion makes the whole process much more fun.
D.Different environments have different impacts on our productivity.
E.And when it is indeed too late, we panic and wish we had started earlier.
F.That's because we would keep pushing everything back until it's too late.
G.Soon, your task will be so simple that you will be thinking you can do it now.
1.选E E项和上一句语文衔接,对上一句中的too late之后的情形进一步补充。你把事情拖得太晚,你就会恐慌,希望你要是早点儿开始就好了。
2.选G 把任务进一步细分之后,你的工作会非常简单,你觉得你现在就可以完成它。
3.选D 本段说明了周围环境对工作效率的影响。D项符合本段大意。
4.选F F项对上一句进行了解释。只定一个截止日期很容易让我们工作拖拉,因为我们总是会把任何事都推后,直到太晚。
