21、How to Beat the Afternoon Slump and Regain Your Focus
It’s 3 pm, and the very last thing you want to do is work. You are so tired that you could go back to bed. 【1】 It’s called the afternoon slump, and people across the world deal with it every day. It can be a killer for your motivation and productivity. The following techniques may help overcome the afternoon slump.
Grab a Healthy Snack
If you’re feeling tired, try giving your body some energy with a healthy snack. Sugary, prepackaged snacks seem to be a good choice because they provide you with a quick hit of energy. But after this boost of energy, you’ll quickly experience a “sugar crash”. 【2】 Therefore, try something that has a balance of protein and healthy fats instead.
Get Some Exercise
One of the quickest ways to increase your energy is to do some exercise. If you’ve been sitting at your desk all day, then getting your blood pumping (涌流) can give you the boost you need to continue your work. 【3】 Some simple ways to add physical activity to your day can work wonders, such as taking a walk and dancing to your favorite song.
【4】
Our final piece of advice isn’t a specific action, but rather a larger change in the way you work. If you know that you’re going to have less energy in the afternoon, try to use that time for tasks that require less energy. For instance, I prefer to do my most creative and high-energy work in the morning and lower energy tasks like processing email in the afternoon. 【5】
While you can’t beat the afternoon slump completely, you can take steps to regain the energy and focus you need to stay productive even in the face of tiredness.
A．Schedule Your Work Around Your Energy
B．Do Less Demanding Tasks to Keep Energetic
C．If you’ve experienced this feeling, you’re not alone.
D．It means that you may feel even more tired than before.
E．For maximum effectiveness, combine the exercise with healthy snacks.
F．With this approach, you can anticipate the afternoon slum and arrange your work.
G．The specific exercise doesn’t really matter, and it doesn’t have to be long or complicated.
22、In my writing, I adhere (遵守) to some essential rules: understanding the message I want to convey and to whom I am communicating, and presenting it in a clear and concise (简洁的) manner. When my target audience is my professors, or when my writing is expected to be read by my students, I adopt a different style. 【1】 A clear message is necessary to avoid boring readers or losing your audience.
【2】 It matters in all forms of communication. Skilled speakers and performers interact with their audience and deliver their message effectively. In contrast, ineffective communication can result in a lost message.
Effective communication is arguably the most crucial skill you can learn in life. 【3】 For example: imagine being a scientist who has made a groundbreaking discovery. If you cannot explain your work to others using words, how difficult would it be to mime (比划着表达) your findings?
Unfortunately, communication skills are often overlooked in education. On this account, many people have experienced ineffective communication at some point in their lives, both as the speaker and the recipient. 【4】 Universities in China are taking steps to improve communication skills. By prioritizing communication skills, we can help students become better communicators.
In conclusion, effective communication is vital in all areas of life, including writing, speaking, and performing. 【5】 With it we will be more likely to succeed in all aspects of life.
A．Readers can easily get bored.
B．Understanding the audience is crucial.
C．However, there is good news on the horizon.
D．Effective communication is not limited to writing.
E．It is fundamental to success in many aspects of life.
F．Great ideas are only limited by our ability to express them.
G．It is a skill that can be learned and developed through practice.
