Everyone procrastinates．We put things off because we don’t want to do them, or because we have too many other things on our plates．Putting things off – big or small – is part of being human．But procrastination does have consequences．When your procrastination leaves you feeling discouraged, it is time to take action, and one of the best ways to get rid of it is to make an un-schedule。

An un-schedule is a weekly calendar of all the ways in which your time is already accounted for．You consider not only your timed commitments such as classes and meetings, but also your untimed activities such as meals, exercise, time with friends, and the like．Once you have made your un-schedule, you may be able to see your time is often filled with more activities than you realize, for instance, that you really don’t have five hours to spend writing on the night before your paper is due．Procrastinators’ views of time tend to be unrealistic, and the un-schedule can help you outline a realistic plan．By planning accordingly, you will not only get a better night’s sleep, you may also end up with a better paper．

The un-schedule might also be a good way to get started on a larger project, such as a term paper or an honors paper．You may think that you have “all semester” to get the writing done, but if you really map out how much time you have available to write on a daily and weekly basis, you will see that you need to get started sooner, rather than later．In addition, the un-schedule may reveal especially busy weeks or months, which will help you budget time for long-term projects．

Perhaps most importantly, the un-schedule can help you examine how you spend your time．You may be surprised at how much time you spend watching television, and decide to make a change．It’s especially important that you build time for fun activities into your un-schedule．Otherwise, you will procrastinate in order to steal time for relaxation．

You can also use the un-schedule to record your progress towards your goal．Reward yourself for your small successes．Seeing what you’ve achieved will help you reinforce (強(qiáng)化) the productive behavior, and you will feel more motivated in the following process．

As you explore ways to conquer procrastination, don’t expect overnight transformation．You developed the habit over a long time; you aren’t going stop magically．But you can change the behavior, bit by bit．If you start to make an un-schedule now, you will eventually develop new habits．

1.From Paragraph 2, we can know that procrastinators __________．

A．usually have sleeping problems

B．tend to be unrealistic in daily life

C．spend more time in doing exercise

D．often fail to notice untimed activities

2.Which of the following statements best reflects an un-schedule?

A．“Now I have more time for fun.”

B．“I can start my big project later.”

C．“I’ll treat myself to a movie for my progress.”

D．“I’m going to have more time to finish my paper.”

3.According to the writer, people need to make an un-schedule because of their _．

A．interests in doing things differently

B．determination to try out new things

C．inability to manage time properly

D．lack of concentration on a project

Many years ago, when I was fresh out of school and working in Denver, I was driving to my parents’ home in Missouri for Christmas. I stopped at a gas station about 50 miles from Oklahoma City, where I was planning to stop and visit a friend. While I was standing in line at the cash register (收款臺(tái)), I said hello to an older couple who were also paying for gas.

I took off, but had gone only a few miles when black smoke poured from the back of my car. I stopped and wondered what I should do. A car pulled up behind me. It was the couple I had spoken to at the gas station. They said they would take me to my friend’s. We chatted on the way into the city, and when I got out of the car, the husband gave me his business card.

I wrote him and his wife a thank?you note for helping me. Soon afterward, I received a Christmas present from them. Their note that came with it said that helping me had made their holidays meaningful.

Years later, I drove to a meeting in a nearby town in the morning. In late afternoon I returned to my car and found that I’d left the lights on all day, and the battery (電池) was dead. Then I noticed that the Friendly Ford dealership—a shop selling cars—was right next door. I walked over and found two salesmen in the showroom.

“Just how friendly is Friendly Ford?” I asked and explained my trouble. They quickly drove a pickup truck to my car and started it. They would accept no payment, so when I got home, I wrote them a note to say thanks. I received a letter back from one of the salesmen. No one had ever taken the time to write him and say thank you, and it meant a lot, he said.

“Thank you” — two powerful words. They’re easy to say and mean so much.

1. What happened when the author found smoke coming out of his car?

A．He had it pulled back to the gas station.

B．The couple sent him a business card.

C．The couple offered to help him.

D．He called his friend for help.

2.The battery of the author’s car was dead because ________.

A．something went wrong with the lights

B．the meeting lasted a whole day

C．he forgot to turn off the lights

D．he drove too long a distance

3.By telling his own experiences, the author tries to show ________.

A．how to write a thank?you letter

B．how to deal with car problems

C．the kind?heartedness of older people

D．the importance of expressing thanks

下面文章中有5個(gè)段落需要添加小標(biāo)題（第1—5題）。請(qǐng)從以下選項(xiàng)（A、B、C、D、E、F）中選出符合各段意思的小標(biāo)題。選項(xiàng)中有多余選項(xiàng)。

A.The engine in your body．

B.The location, size and heartbeat of a heart．

C.What happens when the heart beats?

D.How does your heart work?

E. How do we know about the heart?

F.What can a doctor tell by feeling your pulse?

1._______ Your heart is sometimes called the engine or the motor in your body and sometimes called the pump．It works away, both day and night．First it pumps out some blood, rests for a few seconds, and then it pumps some more．In a normal day, the heart pumps about 2,500 gallons of blood from the auricles and ventricles．

2.________ When your heart beats, it is pumping blood to all parts of your body．If you could examine your heart closely, you would see that it is really two pumps placed side by side, and working at the same time．Each pump has two parts, the upper part called the auricle(心房), and the lower part called the ventricle(心室)．The auricles receive the blood as it comes into them after it has been pumped through the body．The ventricles pump the blood out．The right one pumps the blood to the lungs and the left one pumps the blood to all other parts of the body．At the top and bottom openings of each ventricle are valves(閥門) which make the blood go in only one direction．

3.______ Your heart is located in your chest, a little to your left．This heart of yours, which is about the size of your two fists held together, beats about 90 times a minute．A grown person’s heart beats about 60 to 80times a minute．The heartbeat is not just the same in all persons, and it is not the same in any one person at all times．

4._______ By using a stethoscope to listen to the heart, the doctor can tell whether your heart is beating evenly and whether the valves are closing tightly．The stethoscope makes these sounds so clear that the doctor can hear them easily．The stethoscope has an earpiece that he places on your chest and tubes that he places in his ears．The earpiece carries the sound of your heart’s beating along the tubes to the doctor’s ears, and it makes the sound seem much louder than it really is．The doctor could listen to your heartbeat by pulling his ears against your chest．

5._______ An easy experiment can help you understand what happens when the heart beats．You can do this experiment with a hollow rubber ball．Make a small hole in it, and fill the ball with water through the hole．When you squeeze the ball, you will notice how the water comes out in a spurt each time you squeeze．After each spurt the ball comes back to its round shape again．Something like this happens when your heart beats．The muscles in your heart grow smaller, or contract, and squeeze the blood out of the heart．Each time this happens, we say your heart is beating．Perhaps you have noticed that the doctor places his finger on the pulse in your wrist when you are ill．By doing this he can tell how fast your heart is beating．
