Answer 1

【答案】

【1】C

【2】A

【3】E

【4】G

【5】B

【解析】

本文是说明文，给出了几项如何变得更加有条理的建议。

【1】C 本句是这段内容的主旨句。根据这一段内容主要讲述要把物品放在固定的位置，用完之后放回原处，故C项“把所有东西放在它自己的位置上”。

【2】A 根据本段的主旨句Making lists，可判断选A项，只有A项“为你的一天列待办事项清单”与主旨句呼应。

【3】E 前一句讲述将所有事情都写下来，后一句说“即使你的记忆力很棒，没有人是完美的”，故E项“一支短的铅笔要胜过记性”承接上下文。

【4】G 根据前一句说“有很多方法坚持你的待办事项清单”，故F项“设置时间段是组织自己一天的好方法”承接上文。

【5】B 根据下一句“但是当你尽力做到做好的时候”，B项“没有人整天都是干净和清醒的”与下文形成转折，故选B。
