21、Have you ever said to yourself “I’ll do it tomorrow“? 【1】When people delay action or put off decisions in this way, we call it procrastination. Sometimes it can be a good time management strategy to “do it later, ” especially if we are tired or waiting for something to make the job easier. However, procrastination is actually more than just practical time management.
Procrastination happens when a person has difficulty managing negative emotions, such as anxiety, boredom, and stress. It is very easy for procrastination to become a habit, and many people try hard to break away from the cycle of guilt and shame that it can create. 【2】 Here is some useful advice to help us deal with it:
Use a calendar
Planning out time for everything you want to do will help you stay organized. 【3】 This can allow you extra time in case an emergency occurs.
Break big projects into small pieces
【4】 So it’s better to take things step by step. “Do the housework“ sounds like a big task, but if you begin with “do the dishes” and then move on to “do the laundry, ” it might not seem so hard.
Reward and forgive yourself
People get caught up in being perfect. 【5】 If you provide a small reward at the end of a project, it can help you finish what you start. Also, it will give you something to look forward to. Even when you don’t succeed, remember to be kind to yourself. When you’re ready, try again!
A．And have you ever said that three or four days in a row?
B．Procrastination is a serious problem for students and office workers.
C．This can really get in the way of finishing a task.
D．It can be challenging to think about how much there is to do.
E．You can avoid procrastination by pushing a deadline up to get ahead of schedule.
F．The good news is that it can be managed with some willpower and help.
G．How often do you put off what you should do today until tomorrow?
22、Pacing and Pausing
Sara tried to befriend her old friend Steve’s new wife, but Betty never seemed to have anything to say. While Sara felt Betty didn’t hold up her end of the conversation, Betty complained to Steve that Sara never gave her a chance to talk. The problem had to do with expectations about pacing and pausing.
Conversation is a turn-taking game. When our habits are similar, there’s no problem. But if our habits are different, you may start to talk before I’m finished or fail to take your turn when I’m finished. That’s what was happening with Betty and Sara.
It may not be coincidental that Betty, who expected relatively longer pauses between turns, is British, and Sara, who expected relatively shorter pauses, is American. Betty often felt interrupted by Sara. But Betty herself became an interrupter and found herself doing most of the talking when she met a visitor from Finland. And Sara had a hard time cutting in on some speakers from Latin America or Israel.
The general phenomenon, then, is that the small conversation techniques, like pacing and pausing, lead people to draw conclusions not about conversational style but about personality and abilities. These habitual differences are often the basis for dangerous stereotyping (思维定势). And these social phenomena can have very personal consequences. For example, a woman from the southwestern part of the US went to live in an eastern city to take up a job in personnel. When the Personnel Department got together for meetings, she kept searching for the right time to break in — and never found it. Although back home she was considered outgoing and confident, in Washington she was viewed as shy and retiring. When she was evaluated at the end of the year, she was told to take a training course because of her inability to speak up.
That’s why slight differences in conversational style — tiny little things like microseconds of pause — can have a great effect on one’s life. The result in this cause was a judgment of psychological problems — even in the mind of the woman herself, who really wondered what was wrong with her and registered for assertiveness training.
【1】What did Sara think of Betty when talking with her?
A. Betty was talkative.
B. Betty was an interrupter.
C. Betty did not take her turn.
D. Betty paid no attention to Sara.
【2】According to the passage, who are likely to expect the shortest pauses between turns?
A. Americans. B. Israelis.
C. The British. D. The Finns.
【3】We can learn from the passage that ________.
A. communication breakdown results from short pauses and fast pacing
B. women are unfavorably stereotyped in eastern cities of the US
C. one’s inability to speak up is culturally determined sometimes
D. one should receive training to build up one’s confidence
【4】The underlined word “assertiveness” in the last paragraph probably means ________.
A. being willing to speak one’s mind
B. being able to increase one’s power
C. being ready to make one’s own judgment
D. being quick to express one’s ideas confidently
23、One of China’s greatest resources is no doubt its diverse food. One of the most popular foods to be found is no doubt the street snacks that make up a large part of everyday life. “Compared with A Bite of China, which show eases chefs’ cooking processes and delicious food on air, Chinese Barbecue (烧烤) is more down-to-earth in describing the people,” commented a viewer.
A new documentary series, called Chinese Barbecue, tells the story of this popular food option that sizzles over hot coals on just about every street corner in cities and towns across the country. Barbecued meat shining over hot coal containers, while not as elegant as some of the fine dining options in China, are an essential part of people’s night life. The pleasant smell and atmosphere surrounding the grilled (烤的) street food are “something that could entice a girl to fly downstairs at night wearing her pajamas,” the documentary claims.
In many Chinese’s eyes, barbecue, regarded as the most ordinary and common night street snack, is different from homemade food by mothers as that is a symbol of kinship (亲情). Barbecue is where you go to become connected to people in society. And unlike official business lunches, during which people are rather reserved and polite, barbecue lets people cut loose and relax with old friends and newly made friends, leaving a lasting impression (friendship).
On the other side of the world, in the United States, BBQ, well received by all ages, demonstrates the even more enthusiastic personality of Americans, who grill large steaks on their outdoor stoves at home and enjoy competing to see who has the better cooking skills. It’s safe to say that the world, as a whole, holds deep-rooted good feelings toward barbecue, either for the taste or the warmth generated by fire.
【1】What is probably A Bite of China?
A．A popular documentary.
B．A commercial programme.
C．A cuisine radio programme.
D．A soap opera of chefs.
【2】What may the underlined word “entice” in paragraph 2 mean?
A．Force.
B．Inform.
C．Remind.
D．Attract.
【3】What makes barbecue different from other food in Chinese’s view?
A．Close family bonds.
B．Quality food.
C．Unique atmosphere.
D．Beautiful cooking style.
【4】Why does author mention BBQ in the United States?
A．To indicate the popularity of BBQ.
B．To present special American culture.
C．To show friendship between countries.
D．To make a comparison with Chinese BBQ.
