Question

【題目】根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。

Everyone wants more free time to do the things they love. Here are four methods that you can use in your personal life to get things done more efficiently and save time.

1. Save time by shopping all at once.

【1】 Go out and do all of your shopping on a single day in a single trip. By the way, the very best time to shop for groceries is Tuesday afternoon and evening. Why? Store shelves are restocked（再備貨）on Monday after the weekend. On Tuesday, you can get the greatest selection, get out fast, and get more free time.

2. 【2】

Wasting the time of other people is usually not deliberate. If you are a boss with people reporting to you, avoid wasting the time of your staff by keeping them waiting or being late for meetings. The more respect you show for the time of your staff, the more valuable and important they will feel. 【3】

3. Get more free time by being punctual.

Only 2 percent of people are punctual all the time, and these people are respected by everyone. Punctuality is professional and polite. 【4】 There is no such thing as being fashionably late.

4. Get things done quickly.

Get things done at a fast pace. 【5】 The more efficiently you work and the more you get done, the better you feel. Most successful people work at a faster pace than unsuccessful people.

A. Don’t waste the time of others.

B. Get into the hait of being on time.

C. When you go shopping, do it all at once.

D. Don’t break the rule of meeting strangers.

E. The same rule applies to your personal life.

F. Remember, fast pace is essential to success.

G. Get everything done before going shopping every time.

【答案】

【1】C

【2】A

【3】E

【4】B

【5】F

【解析】

【文章大意】每個(gè)人都想有更多的業(yè)余時(shí)間去做自己喜愛的事情。可是如何做事情既有效率又能節(jié)省時(shí)間呢？文中的方法值得我們借鑒。

【1】C 考查上下文和句意理解。根據(jù)本段的標(biāo)題“Save time by shopping all at once.”（通過立即購物來節(jié)省時(shí)間）和后面的“Go out and do all of your shopping on a single day in a single trip.”可知，“When you go shopping, do it all at once.”（當(dāng)你去購物的時(shí)候，一次把東西買齊）符合題意。故答案為C。

【2】A 考查上下文和歸納概括。本空是選小標(biāo)題，根據(jù)后面的內(nèi)容“Wasting the time of other people is usually not deliberate.”（浪費(fèi)其他人的時(shí)間通常都不是故意的）和“avoid wasting the time of your staff”（避免浪費(fèi)你的員工的時(shí)間）可知，本空應(yīng)該是“不要浪費(fèi)其他人的時(shí)間”。故答案為A。

【3】E 考查上下文和句意理解。根據(jù)前面的內(nèi)容“The more respect you show for the time of your staff, the more valuable and important they will feel.”和本段的標(biāo)題內(nèi)容“不要浪費(fèi)時(shí)間”可知，“The same rule applies to your personal life.”（同樣的規(guī)則也適用于你的個(gè)人生活）為本題答案，故選E。

【4】B 考查上下文和句意理解。根據(jù)本段的標(biāo)題“Get more free time by being punctual.”（通過守時(shí)來得到更多的自由時(shí)間）和本空前面一句的內(nèi)容“Punctuality is professional and polite.”（守時(shí)是專業(yè)和有禮貌的）可知，本空應(yīng)該是“Get into the habit of being on time.”（養(yǎng)成準(zhǔn)時(shí)的習(xí)慣）。故答案為B。

【5】F 考查上下文和句意理解。根據(jù)后面的“Most successful people work at a faster pace than unsuccessful people.”（大多數(shù)成功的人工作節(jié)奏比不成功的人要更快）可知，“Remember, fast pace is essential to success.”（記住：快節(jié)奏是成功最基本的原則）。因此正確答案為F。
