Never Put off Until Tomorrow What You Can Do TodayWant to put off studying for the physics test? Or writing that thirty-five-page research paper on future uses of biotechnology? Sure you do? And who wouldn't? But it's still a silly idea to put off doing something until a future time.Here's why…
1.________.The task will be still the same.It won't be any more fun and you still won't want to do it.As the deadline gets closer and closer, the task seems to become larger and larger if you haven't started the work.And the stress increases.Now not only do you have to write that paper, you have to do it under great pressure.
2.________.Before you start, it seems that the task is unlikely to be accomplished.But you know what? You're probably miscalculating.Get started-maybe on a small piece-and you'll discover that you have more resources and know more about the subject than you thought.Result? You won't experience nearly as much suffering as you expected to.Things are guaranteed-100 percent-to get better.
3.________.If you leave your work until the night before it's due, you give up
the possibility of getting input from your professor.Professors regularly give advice -or at least a few useful tips-during office hours.Unfortunately v though, they don't usually hold office hours at midnight, so you'll be out of luck when you discover the night before the midterm that you have no idea how to do the questions that will count for two-thirds of your grade.
4.________.Ever wonder why the professor assigns the paper two weeks before it's due? It's because he or she expects you to be thinking about the issue, or doing the research, for two weeks.No, not every waking moment, but at least some of the time.After all, the professor could just as easily have given the assignment one week before it was due if he or she expected less thinking.Most college papers require you to have some kind of idea, then to spend some time thinking about it, revising it, and polishing it.When you throw together a paper or a report at the last minute, your ideas are half-baked.And your professor will know it.
5.________.If you put things off till the last minute 9 you might find that you haven't budgeted enough minutes to finish the necessary tasks.It's the easiest thing in the world to miscalculate how long it'll take to do all the work especially when new issues arise-like illness, family problems, computer breakdowns, trouble at work, and all the other things-as you're thinking through your paper argument or preparing yourself for the coming test.If you keep delaying, you don't allow yourself time for those various Life events that have an adverse(不利的)effect on your ability to complete your assignment.
解析:
1.B。根据后面的两句The task will be still the same.It won't be any more fun and you still won't want to do it.可以推断,本段谈论的主题把工作留给将来做不是好主意。本段论述角度:首先,工作依然需要做;其次,越往后推,工作任务越重,压力也越大。 2.F。根据前两句:…it seems that the task is unlikely to be accomplished. But…miscalculating…maybe it's a small place…have more…more…than you though可以判断, 该段讲的是:没有开始的时候,会觉得工作不可能完成。但是人们会估计错误。做起来以后,就会觉得其实自己比想像的要强多了,自己完全能胜任的。结果就是一定能够做成功,做得更好。很明显,本段论述的是:人们很容易高估了课业的压力。论述角度为:层层递进。 3.E。根据下一句If you leave your work…, you give up the possibility of…give advice,以及Unfortunately, though…so you'll be out of luck…(这两句都是对于主题句的进一步解释),可以得知本句主题为:把事情放到最后一刻去做,将会放弃得到帮助的机会。本段论述方式为举例说明,例子为大学生如果把课业留在最后一刻,将会失去得到教授指导的机会。 4.C。本段首先以设问并回答的方式开始论述:你有没有想过你的教授为什么总是会提交给你布置论文吗?因为你的教授希望你好好思考,亦或他希望你能用两周的时间做调研准备(虽然不是希望你投入全天的时间)。从反面开始论证:如果教授不需要你用太多时间去思考,那么他可以给你留更少的时间。接着从正面论述:大部分大学论文都需要学生进行构思、花时间去思考、修改、润色。最后是结论:如果你在最后一刻匆匆忙忙地与完一个论文或报告,你的思想是不成熟的。据此判断:本段谈论的是:需要时间去一步一步地做好。 5.A。本段第一句:如果人们习惯于将事情推到最后一刻去做,将可能发现没有预留出足够的时间完成要做的各种事情。本段最后一句:生活中总是会有阻碍完成工作的各种事情发生,如果你有拖延的习惯,你将不会有时间去应付。判断本段讲的是,时间很容易不够用。 |
