Question

【題目】根據短文內容，從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。

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.

【解析】

【文章大意】每個人都想有更多的業(yè)余時間去做自己喜愛的事情�？墒侨绾巫鍪虑榧扔行�率又能節(jié)省時間呢？文中的方法值得我們借鑒。

【1】C 考查上下文和句意理解。根據本段的標題“Save time by shopping all at once.”（通過立即購物來節(jié)省時間）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.”（當你去購物的時候，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。本空是選小標題，根據后面的內容“Wasting the time of other people is usually not deliberate.”（浪費其他人的時間通常都不是故意的）和“avoid wasting the time of your staff”（避免浪費你的員工的時間）可知，本空應該是“不要浪費其他人的時間”。故答案為A。

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

【4】B 考查上下文和句意理解。根據本段的標題“Get more free time by being punctual.”（通過守時來得到更多的自由時間）和本空前面一句的內容“Punctuality is professional and polite.”（守時是專業(yè)和有禮貌的）可知，本空應該是“Get into the habit of being on time.”（養(yǎng)成準時的習慣）。故答案為B。

【5】F 考查上下文和句意理解。根據后面的“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�。嚎旃�(jié)奏是成功最基本的原則）。因此正確答案為F。
