Time Management
Do you ever wish you had more time Everyone gets the same amount of time each day. But here are some ways to use those hours better. As a popular saying says,“ Work smarter, not harder.”
The most important way to manage your time is to set priorities(优先权).1. Also, consider whether or not they are urgent— if they need to be done right away. It can be easy to forget important tasks that aren't urgent, so make time for them.
Decide ahead of time what you' re going to do at certain times each day. Schedule times not only to meet people but also to do things alone. Then you can make sure everything gets done.
2. Are you smarter in the morning, afternoon or evening Schedule difficult tasks for times you feel good, saving easy ones for when you' re tired.
Write down what you need to do and when. I keep two to- do lists: one for the present tasks and one for larger projects I'm working on.3. And I don't get discouraged by looking at a long list of items I can't finish. I focus on the
shorter list of each day's tasks.
4. When someone wants to give you a task, think carefully. Is it really important enough to spend your precious(宝贵的) time on Could someone else do it instead
5. If you' re in charge of running a meeting, keep it short. Reading articles or talking to friends online can also use up much of your time. Don't allow it.
In the end, using time well is about making a good plan and sticking to it.
A. Think about the time of day you work best.
B. That's way I can make sure I don't forget anything.
C. Figure out(弄明白) which of your tasks is the most important.
D. Often, managing time means saying no to things that aren't so important.
E. Meetings also tend to be a waste of time, so avoid them whenever possible.

阅读短文,从短文下面方框中的六个句子中选择五个还原到短文中,使短文通顺完整、衔接自然。
Where you sit and how you fit
1. For more than seventy years, researchers and teachers have studied the link between the place where students choose to sit in class and what they are like as people and learners. Where do you usually decide to sit Have you ever really thought about the reasons for your decision
2. But is this really true Well, some researchers say it is not. In fact, shy students often choose the back row because it is far away from the teacher and they don't want to answer questions. At the back, students probably won't speak much, but in big classrooms, it can be hard to see the board and hear what the teacher is saying. This could be the reason why students who sit here often get lower grades on tests and exams. For students with poor eyesight or hearing, a seat at the back of the classroom is not a good choice.
3. However, they like watching and listening rather than joining in. These students are usually also very good at taking notes. Next time you miss a class, borrow notes from someone who sits here. On the sides of the classroom you will generally find modest and thoughtful people. These people usually get good grades in school and are interested in learning.
4. Then the statistics(统计数据) say you probably like your teacher. You probably also have a good relationship with your classmates. Caring, outgoing, and cheerful people usually sit in the middle. They are normally serious about learning and feel disappointed with low grades on tests and exams.
5. Students who sit here usually want to discuss things with the teacher and are often very interested in the subject. They want to be in the best place to see and hear everything the teacher does and says. The only problem with sitting here is that it can be difficult to see and hear what other students do and say in class. So, if you really want to hear what everyone says in class, choose a different place to sit.
A. You probably sit right at the front of the class if you' re longing for knowledge.
B. Research suggests that the seat you choose in the classroom says a lot about you and your personality.
C. Do you sit in the middle of the classroom
D. This means it's a good idea to sit in a different place every day.
E. People often think that students who sit at the back are lazy.
F. Students who sit at the side of the classroom are normally interested in class.
