“Nature does not hurry, yet everything is accomplished.” ---Lao Tzu
If you are in a city where everyone rushes, realize that you don’t have to be like everyone else. You can be different. You can walk instead of driving in rush hour traffic. You can be on your iPhone or Blackberry less, and disconnected sometimes. Your environment doesn’t control your life---you do. I’m not going to tell you how to give you a step-by-step guide to moving slower.    1   
1. Do less.
Cut back on your projects, on your task list, on how much you try to do each day. Focus not on quantity but on quality.    2    Save smaller, routine tasks for later in the day, but give yourself time to focus.
2. Have fewer meetings.
3    And they eat into your day, forcing you to squeeze the things you really need to do into small windows, and making you rush.
3.    4   
When you do the important things with focus, without rush, there will be things that get pushed back, and that don’t get done. And you need to ask yourself: how necessary are these things? What would happen if I stopped doing them?
4. Practice mindfulness.
Simply learn to live in the present, rather than things so much about future or the past. When you eat, fully appreciate your food. When you are with someone, be with them fully. When you are walking, appreciate your surroundings, no matter where you are.
Try these things out. Life is better when unrushed.

Answer 1

【小題1】D
【小題2】F
【小題3】B
【小題4】A
【小題5】E

解析試題分析：本文告訴我們生活不要太匆忙，要讓自己適當(dāng)?shù)亻e下來，把生活中的那些不是很重要的事情放在一邊，或者就是不要去做。
【小題1】D 根據(jù)上句I’m not going to tell you how to give you a step-by-step guide可知我不會(huì)給你一步步地指導(dǎo)，而是給你一些也許你會(huì)采納和考慮的建議。故D項(xiàng)符合上下文。
【小題2】F 根據(jù)下一句Save smaller, routine tasks for later in the day說明把一些小的，不是很重要的事情放在以后再做，故F項(xiàng)，也就是把重要的事情先做起來，故F項(xiàng)正確。
【小題3】B 根據(jù)上一句Have fewer meetings說明要我們少開會(huì)，那么這一句就應(yīng)該是說明開會(huì)的壞處，故B項(xiàng)符合上下文。
【小題4】A 根據(jù)本段there will be things that get pushed back, and that don’t get done. And you need to ask yourself: how necessary are these things? What would happen if I stopped doing them?說明我們要把那些不是很重要的事情推遲到以后再做，甚至是把那些不需要的事情取消掉。
【小題5】E 本句與本文的第一句“Nature does not hurry, yet everything is accomplished.” ---Lao Tzu
形成呼應(yīng)的關(guān)系，故E項(xiàng)符合上下文。
