We all wish we had just a bit more time.Just think what you could do with an extra hour or two each day: you could finally stick to an exercise routine, or spring-clean the house, or write your novel, or learn the guitar and so on.
1. But I can help you find more hours in your day for the things that really matter.
1.Get Out of Bed Earlier
If you normally get up at 7; 30 a.m., try getting up at 7:00 a.m.. That half-hour might not sound like much, but it could be time that you use to exercise, to read that book you've been meaning to finish. 2.
2.Do the Important Tasks First
Once you get to work, get the important ones done first(not the easy ones, or even the urgent ones). 3.
If you work like this, you'll usually save time. The urgent tasks will still get done, and you won't miss the important ones.
3.Reduce Interruptions
If colleagues have a habit of hanging around your desk to chat, or if the phone is constantly ringing, you might find that it takes you half the day to finish a simple task like writing a letter. 4.
4. 5.
A few minutes chatting, browsing the web, and so on, can easily turn into hours of wasted time over the course of a day. If your concentration is slipping, take a proper break: go and get a glass of water, or stretch your legs a bit. And if you’re facing a difficult task, try breaking it into small steps or stages so that it’s easier to deal with.
A. Stay Focused on Your Work
B. Take Breaks When Necessary
C. Constant interruptions don't just eat up time, they also break your concentration.
D. You can afford to spend at least an hour working on big, important tasks rather than on
all those little urgent ones.
E. Would you want me to make your day longer?
F. I can't magically make all your days 25 hours long.
G. Or simply to get your day off to a calm and organized start.

When Kathryn was 6 years old, she sat outside for three hours at her home and did not make a sound.Her parents wondered why she was so quiet, only to discover that she was drawing a picture of a flag outside. She recalled. “That’s what I wanted to do that day,” said Kathryn, who is now 23 years old. And in the future, she continued to do art as a hobby.
Recently, Kathryn was named Lake Placid’s first artist in the neighborhood. She will be there for at least four weeks and possibly more. During that time, she will teach an art class and focus on her own art. Much of her work includes creating photos.

Now that newsrooms are becoming less popular in the US,young people have begun to tell their own stories.

A man may usually be known by the books he reads as well as by the company he keeps; for there is a companionship of books as well as of men; and one should always live in the best company, whether it be of books or of men.
A good book may be among the best of friends. It is the same today that it always was, and it will never change. It is the most patient and cheerful of companions. It does not turn its back upon us in times of adversity or distress. It always receives us with the same kindness; amusing and instructing us in youth, and comforting and consoling us in age.
Men often discover their affinity(亲密) to each other by the mutual love they have for a book just as two persons sometimes discover a friend by the admiration which both entertain for a third. There is an old proverb, ‘Love me, love my dog.” But there is more wisdom in this:” Love me, love my book.” The book is a truer and higher bond of union. Men can think, feel, and sympathize with each other through their favorite author. They live in him together, and he in them.
A good book is often the best urn(瓮)of a life enshrining the best that life could think out; for the world of a man’s life is, for the most part, the world of his thoughts. Thus the best books are treasuries of good words, the golden thoughts, which, remembered and cherished, become our constant companions and comforters.
Books possess an essence of immortality. They are by far the most lasting products of human effort. Temples and statues decay, but books survive. Time is of no account with great thoughts, which are as fresh today as when they first passed through their author’s minds, ages ago. What was then said and thought still speaks to us as vividly as ever from the printed page. The only effect of time have been to sift(筛) out the bad products; for nothing in literature can long survive but what is really good.
Books introduce us into the best society; they bring us into the presence of the greatest minds that have ever lived. We hear what they said and did; we see them as if they were really alive; we sympathize with them, enjoy with them, grieve with them; their experience becomes ours, and we feel as if we were, in a measure, actors with them in the scenes which they describe.
The great and good do not die, even in this world. Embalmed(加以防腐处理) in books, their spirits walk abroad. The book is a living voice. It is an intellect to which one still listens.
1.What’s the meaning of the underlined word “immortality”?
A.difficult to find B.last for a long time
C.very important D.hard to destroy
2.How do we get close to the greatest minds through reading?
A.by talking to them about what we thought
B.by experiencing what they have gone through in life
C.by sharing their feeling and reading their minds
D.by acting with them on the stage
3.What is the best title of this text?
A.Companionship of books
B.Life without books
C.Unforgettable books
D.Sorting out books
4.This passage is mainly developed by __________.
A.analyzing causes
B.making comparisons
C.examining differences
D.following the order of importance
