        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

  “Should there be separate classes for boys and girls?It might be a wise idea, because it is difficult to satisfy all tastes,”researchers at Leeds University in the UK last week said.

  According to their report, in Britain, boys want science lessons to be about weapons of mass destruction and the effects of chemical weapons, while girls prefer to learn how to keep fit or the meanings of their dreams.

  The study among 15-year-olds aimed to discover how science might be made more popular.The researchers, who contracted 1,200 English students, say“most did not like science as much as other subjects.”

  The difference in results has curriculum(课程)planners considering separate classes for each sex.“The responses show a strong interest among boys in destructive technologies,”say the researchers.“while girls, by contrast, ________ their own bodies.They want to know how to deal with eating disorders, and they are interested in how to beat cancer and how to keep fit.”The differences make teaching a mixed-gender class a very difficult job.

  There was, though, agreement on what boys and girl least want to learn.Both sexes were bored by the thought of studying the benefits and possible dangers of modern farming methods.Neither did they want to study“famous scientists and their lives”.

1.What is the best title of the passage?(Please answer within 10 words.)

________________________

2.Which sentence in the passage can be best replaced by the following one?

Male kids would prefer to learn knowledge about fighting and wars.

4.Both sexes hate learning“famous scientists and their lives”.What do you think of this point of view?(Please write within 30 words.)

How to beat nerves

  Do you blank out, freeze up(呆住)or feel so nervous in exams that you have trouble writing answers to questions that you knew just last night?

  If so, you likely have a case of test anxiety.

  But, don’t panic.By recognizing the problem, you are taking the first step towards overcoming it.

  Believe it or not, a touch of nervousness can sharpen your mind, allowing you to perform more quickly.This is because under stress, the body releases the hormone adrenaline(肾上腺素), which prepares it for something important that will happen.However, too much anxiety can result in sleeplessness, loss of appetite before tests, and poor performance.Some people might feel shaky(weak), hot, or even sick.

  If you worry a lot or are a perfectionist, you are more likely to have trouble with test anxiety.Those who have prepared poorly for a test or have had negative experiences taking tests may also experience test anxiety.

  When you feel a storm of anxiety coming on, stop what you're doing and make your mind a blank.If possible, actually tell yourself to ‘STOP!’ This will get your mind off the stress.Then think of being at a place of comfort and let your body relax.As you continue the test, find questions you know the answers to and answer them first.This will help restore your confidence.

  Talk to yourself using positive language.Make it a habit to replace each negative thought with a logical reason.For example:“I've studied hard and I know the material, so I’m ready to do the best I can.”Another thing you can do is to learn to accept mistakes.In fact, they can be valuable learning opportunities.

  Last but not least, start test preparation early three to five days ahead of the quiz or test.After all, good study habits and skills.for example, time management and note-taking will give you the feeling that you are in control.
