Question

【題目】 If you always put off doing things you should do or would like to do, you have experienced procrastination(拖延癥).

Do you have procrastination because you are lazy? In fact, lazy people don’t do anything and are just fine with it. Procrastinators, however, want to do something but can’t force(促成) themselves to start.

There’s a goal in your brain, for example, what are the tasks to be completed today? What goals need to be achieved this year? Everything is in control.

But at the same time, your brain will also have a love of freedom, know how to enjoy yourself. Whenever you secretly make up your mind to complete a task, this “you” will give you a list of temptations. And you will fall step by step.

So if you are a procrastinator, perhaps you spend lots of time watching TV, playing video games, checking WeChat, eating, cleaning or walking back and forth through the room. Afterwards, you feel powerless and have the feeling of guilt(內(nèi)疚) and trouble.

We all have procrastination more or less. __________ For example, it took Da Vinci(達(dá)·芬奇) sixteen years to complete the smile of Mona Lisa. In the middle of the delay(拖延), he went to study and changed his idea of light and shadow.

Excellent people also need to procrastinate, so that inspiration(靈感) has more time in their heads to collide(沖突) with each other. So procrastination is not always terrible. What’s terrible is that we don’t know why we procrastinate. The best way to deal with procrastination is to really understand your heart and find out the reason why it’s not easy for you to start. Some people procrastinate to think, while others procrastinate to escape(逃避).

【解析】

本文是一篇說(shuō)明文，介紹了拖延癥這一概念。

【1】

題意：如果你是一個(gè)拖延癥患者，你可能會(huì)花很多時(shí)間做很多活動(dòng)，除了________。

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)原文“Whenever you secretly make up your mind to complete a task, this “you” will give you a list of temptations. And you will fall step by step”可知，拖延癥患者會(huì)將應(yīng)該現(xiàn)在完成的任務(wù)往后拖延。B選項(xiàng)doing the task now“現(xiàn)在就做任務(wù)”符合題意，故選B。

【2】

題意：第4段中畫(huà)線單詞“temptation”在中文中意為________。

詞句猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)原文“Whenever you secretly make up your mind to complete a task, this “you” will give you a list of temptations. And you will fall step by step”可知，每次下定決心要完成某個(gè)任務(wù)時(shí)，你的大腦也會(huì)給你提供一份很具誘惑的清單，讓你一步步的陷入其中。故“temptation”有“誘惑”之意。C選項(xiàng)“誘惑”符合題意，故選C。

【3】

題意：下列哪一項(xiàng)中的句子可以放入文中空白處？

推理判斷題。根據(jù)下文“For example, it took Da Vinci(達(dá)·芬奇) sixteen years to complete the smile of Mona Lisa”可知，此處指的是一些名人可能比普通人更加愛(ài)拖延。D選項(xiàng)Excellent people may be more procrastinating than you“優(yōu)秀的人可能比你更拖延”符合題意，故選D。

【4】

題意：作者認(rèn)為________。

觀點(diǎn)態(tài)度題。根據(jù)原文“Excellent people also need to procrastinate, so that inspiration(靈感) has more time in their heads to collide(沖突) with each other. So procrastination is not always terrible”可知，作者對(duì)拖延的看法并不是完全負(fù)面的，以優(yōu)秀的人為例，有時(shí)候拖延會(huì)帶來(lái)靈感的碰撞與迸發(fā)，所以作者認(rèn)為，有時(shí)候人們需要對(duì)一些事進(jìn)行適當(dāng)?shù)耐涎印?/span>A選項(xiàng)sometimes people need to procrastinate“有時(shí)候人們需要拖延”符合題意，故選A。
