阅读理解

　　Tess was eight years old．Her little brother Andrew was very sick and their parents were completely out of money．She heard Daddy say to her tearful Mother, “Only a miracle can save him now．”

　　Tess took her money and made her way 6 blocks to Rexall’s Drug Store．

　　“And what do you want?” the chemist asked in an annoyed tone of voice．“I’m talking to my brother from Chicago whom I haven’t seen for ages．”

　　“Well, I want to talk to you about my brother,” Tess answered back in the same annoyed tone．“He’s really sick．He has something bad growing inside his head and my Daddy says only a miracle can save him now．So how much does a miracle cost?”

　　“We don’t sell miracles here, little girl．I’m sorry but I can’t help you,” the chemist said, softening a little．“Listen, I can help you．” The chemist’s brother was a well-dressed man．He asked, “What kind of a miracle does you brother need?”

　　“I don’t know,” Tess replied．“Mommy says he needs an operation．But my Daddy can’t pay for it, so I want to use my money．”

　　“How much do you have?” asked the man from Chicago．“One dollar and eleven cents,” Tess answered．“And it’s all the money I have, but I can get some more if I need to．”

　　“Well, what a coincidence(巧合),” smiled the man．“A dollar and eleven cents－the exact price of a miracle for little brother．Take me to where you live．Let’s see if I have the kind of miracle you need．”

　　That man was Dr．Carlton Armstrong, a surgeon in neurosurgery (神经外科)．The operation was completed without charge and it wasn’t long until Andrew was home again and doing well．

　　Tess smiled．She knew exactly how much a miracle cost…one dollar and eleven cents…plus the faith of a little child．

　　Mom noticed that something was wrong when I started getting so thirsty, I’d have a lot to drink before bed, which was unusual for me．One time, I opened a big container of apple juice and kept refilling my glass．Before I knew it, I’d drunk the entire container! My mom call my doctor．I then had a few blood tests, and the results were certain－I had diabetes, which meant that the amount of sugar in my blood was very high．That can be dangerous, so I had to learn how to control my blood-sugar level．

　　My eating habits had to change in a big way．With diabetes, I can’t eat a lot of sugar or carbohydrates．I have to figure out exactly how much sugar I plan to eat, and then I get an injection of insulin before the meals to help my body process the food．Also, I test my blood-sugar level often．I’m always trying to keep my blood sugar at a healthy level．The level can drop when I exercise, but that doesn’t keep me out of gym class or off the basketball court－I just keep some juice boxes around to boost my blood sugar if I need to．

　　It’s a lot of work－and not a lot of fun－to keep track of everything, but I’ve gotten used to my new habits．I was a little scared at first because I wasn’t sure how my life would change．Once I knew what I needed to do, though, it wasn’t a big deal．My life is different now from what it was before, but it has become completely regular to me．

　　　　　　　　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
