Are you a procrastinator?

Following a schedule and doing things on time is extremely important in today’s busy world.

Unfortunately, not everyone is good at doing this. Many people are procrastinators; they put off

doing things that they need to until it’s too late.

We all put off doing things at times. Statistics show that 90% of university students will often put off studying for a test or writing an important paper the night before, 25% of university students put off almost everything all the time. This more serious form of procrastination can result in a student dropping out of school. Students who put off doing their assignments once in a while get further and further behind in their studies. Before long, they feel completely helpless. For the chronic（长期的）procrastinator, often the only way to solve this problem is to quit school.

According to recent studies, there are three main reasons that students put off doing things. First, many have poor time-management skills and often try to do too much in too little time. In the end, these students often feel helpless and will put off doing many things they need to. Another reason why students put off doing things is that they feel a subject is boring and have something because they don’t like it. a third reason why many students put off doing things is that they often worry that their work will never be as good as it should be and fear failure of any kind, which, unfortunately , can often cause these students to put off doing any work at all.

Do you recognize any of these signs in yourself? If so, you may want to do something about your tendency towards procrastination. The following five tips may be helpful.

First, list the things in life that are important to you, and then list the reasons why you are at school or university. Look at the two lists and see where they match. Is there something you need to do in order to achieve a life goal?

Second, chose realistic goals for yourself; don’t try to do more than you can.

Third, once you have identified our goals, list them and ask yourself “Which should I do first?” As you become more aware of what you need to do and when you need to do it, you will feel more in control and will be able to complete tasks on time.

Fourth, manage your time wisely. Create a schedule that allows adequate time for accomplishing a goal; for example, your schedule should give you enough time to study for and pass a test, as well as time to relax.

Finally, when you accomplish a goal, do something good for yourself as a reward.

If you believe that you are a chronic procrastinator, you should try to get help before it is too late. Talk to a professional, and discuss the problem. If you are a mild procrastinator, make sure to keep yourself motivated, but don’t worry too much. Remember-we all put off doing things at times.

Title: Are you a procrastinator?

阅读下面的短文，然后按照要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。

         A young ensign (海军少尉) was given the opportunity to prepare his ship to “set sail”. Soon the ship was driven slowly out of the channel. The ensign’s efficiency was remarkable. In fact, the talk was that he had set a new record for getting the ship underway. Later he was handed a radio message from the captain.

         “My personal congratulations on completing the sail with amazing speed,” it read, “but next time wait until your captain goes aboard before getting underway!”

         What good is a ship without the captain? The ensign did all the right things, but he never did the most important thing!

         It is a matter of priorities (优先). You may accomplish a great deal every day. But are you accomplishing the truly important things? Have you put first things first?

         In work and study, in the areas of mental, physical and spiritual health, are you truly doing the important things?

         Today, will you put first things first? And how about tomorrow? And the next day? If so, you will one day discover that you are building a life that counts.

“So teach him to close the door”, my daughter Emma responded after listening to me 36  , again, about the dog coming in from the back door, bringing with him a blast of Buffalo January   37  air．

Teach a dog to close a door behind him? That has got to be a really, really   38   thing to do．But then she took it a step   39  ．“Come on, Kolby”, she said, grabbing some treats（犒劳物） and   40  him in front of the open door．“Touch．” And “touch” he did, which moved the door to a   41  position．She  42  him with a treat, smiled, looked at me, and said “see!” And I saw and became   43  ．Over the last few days I have been with Kolby．Each time he comes in I bring him back to the  44  door and ask him to close．There have been   45  in the beginning, but lately more and more successes．

However, there remains much work to be done．I have to get him to follow my hand signal again and again  46  he will close the door from a distance．But, I now realize, as long as you keep to the focus , the   47   will be completed, and, with the way things are   48  , completed quickly．

What a  49  treat to have a dog that can close the door after himself! Even more wonder can be found in the  50  I learned so clearly from both Emma and Kolby．

A wish is just a wish until you decide to take  51 ．Once you   52  the belief that it is “too hard”, then it remains “too hard ” and out of  53 ．Once you want to accomplish a goal, and  54  that it is “easy”, then it becomes “easy” to do what needs to be done．Just  55   doing it．
