        Getting to Now: How to Beat the Procrastination Habit

  I am a procrastinator(拖拉者). I always have been. I've tried all sorts of things to beat the habit. Here are some techniques I've been using to try to force myself to get to now:

  Set aside blocks of time to do things. When I was talking with my wellness coach earlier this year, she asked me why I didn't exercise more often. “  ,” I said. “Something always comes up.” She wasn’t impressed. “J.D.,” she said, “You have to make time. Make an appointment with yourself to run or to go for a bike ride.” The same principle applies to other things you might procrastinate.

    . Often I’ll be sitting on the back porch reading a book, and it will occur to me that some chore needs to be done — mending the fence, for example. “  ,” I tell myself. Wrong! What usually happens is that I forget to write it down, and even if I do, I just look at the list and procrastinate for weeks on end. The best move is to actually do the chore when I think of it. (Assuming, of course, that I have the time at that moment,which I usually do.)

  Use a timer to bring you back to reality. Part of the reason I procrastinate is that I'm a daydreamer.    . One way to keep on track is to use a timer. I use the Ultrak Jumbo Countdown Timer, but not as often as I should. I set it for 48 minutes. When it goes off,    : Am I doing what I'm supposed to be doing?

  Do not multitask. I often start many things at once, but I never actually do any of them. In order for me to get something done, I need to focus my attention on it. Trying to do several things at once is a sure way to be sure they'll all be unfinished tomorrow.

  A. I’m always lost in thought

  B. it brings me back to reality

  C. If it comes to mind, then do it

  D. I don’t have the time

  E. it serves as an instant reality check

  F. Do it right away if you are asked to do something

  G. I need to write that down so I can remember it

阅读理解。
     Some time ago, I discovered that one of my chairs had a broken leg. I didn't think there would be any
difficulty in getting it mended, as there are a whole lot of antique (古董) shops near my home. So I left home
one morning carrying the chair with me. I went into the first shop expecting a friendly reception (接待). I was
quite wrong. The man wouldn't even look at my chair.
    The second shop, though slightly more polite, was just the same, and the third and the fourth-so I decided
that my approach must be wrong.
    I went into the fifth shop with a plan in my mind. I placed the chair on the floor and said to the shopkeeper, "Would you like to buy a chair?" He looked it over carefully and said, "Yes, not a bad chair. How much do you
want for it, Sir?" "20 pounds," I said, "OK," he said, "I will give you 20 pounds." "It's got a slightly broken leg,"
I said. "Yes, I saw that, it's nothing." 
    Everything was going according to the plan and I was getting excited. "What will you do with it?" I asked.
"Oh, it will be easy to sell once the repair is done." "I will buy it," I said. "What do you mean? You have just
sold it to me," he said. "Yes, I know. But I have changed my mind. I am sorry; I will give you 27 pounds for
it." "You must be crazy," he said. Then, suddenly the penny dropped. "I know what you want. You want me to
repair your chair." "You are right," I said. "And what would you have done if I had walked in and said 'would
you mend this chair for me?'" "I wouldn't have agreed to do it," he said. "We don't do repairs, not enough
money in it and too much trouble. But I will mend this for you, shall we say for a five?" He was a very nice
man and was greatly amused by the whole thing.
1. We can learn from the text that in the first shop the writer _____.
[     ]
A. was rather impolite
B. was warmly received

2. "Then, suddenly the penny dropped" in the last paragraph means the shopkeeper _____.
[     ]
A. changed his mind
B. accepted the offer
C. saw the writer's purpose
D. decided to help the writer
3. How much did the writer pay for the mending?
[     ]
A. £5
B. £7
C. £20
D. £27
4. From the text, we can learn that the writer was _____.
