Question

【题目】根据短文内容，从短文后的七个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。

Do you have any problem with time? Start doing these and you will see the difference.

● Write it down

Don’t rely on your memory to keep track of every little detail. 【1】 Write down the things you need to do in a small notebook, or use online tool to create and update your “to-do” list.

● 【2】

Working for long periods without a break can waste your time. It is more efficient to work or study for a shorter period of time, take a break, and then go back to work. You may get more done in tow focused 45-minute sessions.

● One thing at a time

【3】 Do one thing at a time, and do it well. As the Chinese proverb says, “One cannot manage too many affairs. Like pumpkins in the water, one pops up while you try to hold down the other.”

● Schedule email time

On your cell phone you get a notification every time someone sends you can email. If so, you have to check your email many, many times a day. 【4】 Schedule time to check your email. It doesn’t matter when.

● Choose to say “No”.

It’s easy to become overwhelmed if we say “yes” to everything. Think about the task before you commit to it. Do you need to do it? Can someone else do it? Avoid saying “yes” to every request. 【5】

● Keep a goal journal

Write down your goals in a journal and evaluate them regularly. Mark your progress for each goal. Be sure you take the necessary step to achieve your goals.

A. Make a list first

B. Don’t skip the breaks

C. Turn that notification off

D. Memory is not always accurate

E. Don’t forget to focus on your task

F. This takes time away from more important tasks

G. Every time we switch from one task to another, we lose focus

Answer 1

【答案】

【1】D

【2】B

【3】G

【4】C

【5】F

【解析】

试题分析: 这篇文章是一个乘客给公共汽车公司的投诉信。

【1】D 考查对上下文语境的理解。空前的意思是:不要依赖记忆力来记住每个细节。空后句意：写下你需要做的事情…。这里选D（记忆并不总是准确的。）与上下文一致。

【2】B考查对上下文语境的理解。空后的意思是：长时间工作不休息可能会浪费你的时间。因此工作或学习一小段时间，休息一下再回去工作可能会更有效率。所以这里选B（不要跳过休息时间。）总结这一段的内容，与上下文一致。

【3】G 考查对上下文语境的理解。空后的意思是：一次做一件事情，把它做好。所以这里选G（ 每一次我们从一个工作转向另一个工作，都会分散注意力。）与上下文一致。

【4】C考查对上下文语境的理解。空前的意思：每一次有人发给你电子邮件你的手机上都有提醒。如果这样的话，你一天需要查看电子邮件很多次。 空后的意思是：安排时间查看电子邮件。所以这里选C（关掉电子邮件提醒。）与上下文一致。

【5】F考查对上下文语境的理解。空前句意：避免答应每个要求。所以这里选F（这会占用更重要任务的时间。）与上下文一致。
