1.Ways to Save TimeWe 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.(36)F 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 7:30a.m.,try getting up at 7:00a.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.(37)G
(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).You can afford to spend at least an hour working on big,important tasks rather than on all those little urgent ones.(38)D 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.Constant interruptions don't just eat up time,they also break your concentration.
When you've got a big task to focus on,let your calls go to voicemail.(39)C Wearing headphones makes it less likely that people will try to strike up a conversation.
(4)(40)A
A few minutes chatting,browsing the web,and so on,can easily turn into hours of wasted time over the course of a day.When you're working,work.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.If you have an office door,close it.
D.If you work like this,you'll usually save time.
E.Would you want me to make your day longer?
F.I can't magically make all your days 25hours long.
G.Or simply to get your day off to a calm and organized start.
分析 时间宝贵,我们都希望能够多一点时间去做想做的事情,但是每天仅仅有24个小时,这就使得如何能够有效利用时间显得尤其重要,在本文中作者提出了一些关于如何合理高效利用时间的建议.
解答 36-40 FGDCA
36.F 考查对上下文的理解和判断能力.空后面的句子But I can help you find more hours in your day意思是"但是我能够帮助你在一天中找出更多做一些重要事情的时间",根据but可知前面句子意思应该和后面意思相反,能构成转折关系,而在所有选项中F选项内容和时间有关,和下句构成内容上的转折,故选F.
37.G 考查对上下文的理解和判断能力.在本段中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可知作者介绍早起半小时能够做很多事情,比如锻炼、读书等,而G选项内容也是讲述早起的好处,内容符合语境,故选G.
38.D 考查对上下文的理解和判断能力.本段You can afford to spend at least an hour working on big,important tasks rather than on all those little urgent ones的建议是首先做重要的事情,然后余下的时间去完成些小任务,这样做的目的也是能够省时,高效,在所有选项中D项内容能够对上文做出总结,能够起到承上启下的作用,故选D.
39.C 考查对上下文的理解和判断能力.根据上下文When you've got a big task to focus on,let your calls go to voicemail可知此处是建议如何不被人打扰,C选项内容"如果办公室有门的话,把门关上"符合语境,故选C.
40.A 考查对上下文的归纳概括能力.从下文When you're working,work.以及本段内容可知此处作者给出的建议是工作的时候要工作,要注意力集中,否则就停下来去休息,由此判断A选项内容"对工作要专心",能对本段内容作出总结,而且也能够起到统领本段的作用,故选A.
点评 考查学生的细节理解和推理判断能力.做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句,和题干进行比较,再做出正确选择.在做推理判断题时不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实,要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断.
Time passes very quickly.Some students say they don't have(46)Ctime to review all their lessons.It is because they don't know how to make(47)A of their time.They waste it in going to theatres,cinemas and parks,and doing(48)Bthings.Why do we study every day?Why do we(49)A?Why do most people would rather(50)Dbuses instead of walking?The(51)Cis very simple.We wish to save time because time is(52)B.Today we are living in the 21st century.We look upon time as(53)D.When a person dies,his life(54)D.Since life is short,we must(55)Aour time and energy to our study so that we may be able to (56)Cthe people well in the future.Laziness is the(57)Aof time,for it does not only bring us failure but also(58)Cus other harm.If it is necessary for us to do our work today,let us do it today and not(59)Bit until tomorrow.Remember that time is much more(60)Cthan money.
