"Nature does not hurry, yet everything is accomplished. ，，一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 discon?nected 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. 2Save 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.Practise mindfulness.

Simply learn to live in the present, rather than things so much about fu?ture 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 sur?roundings, no matter where you are.

Try these things out. Life is better when unrushed. 5 .

A. Start to put off or cancel the unnecessary.

B. Meetings are usually a "big waste of time".

C. The world likely won't end if you don't pass one of the exams.

D.But here are some things to consider and perhaps adopt(采納)，if they work for your life.

E. Remember the quote ： if nature can get everything done without rus?hing, so can you.

F. Pick 2〜3 important things―or even just one important thing―and work on those first.

     G. Give yourself more time to get ready and get there,

Answer 1

〖能力提升】

 [文章大意]你是否覺得每天都忙忙碌碌、疲于奔命卻發(fā)現(xiàn)沒有時(shí)間做自己想做的事？你是否覺得每天就像和時(shí)間賽跑，卻沒有時(shí)間體會生命的美好？如果是這樣，這篇文章會告訴你如何才能不匆忙，卻擁有快樂的、高質(zhì)量的工作和生活。

1. D考査上下文的語境理解能力。前一句的意思是：你的環(huán)境不會控制你的生活，控制生活的是你自己。這里我不會告訴你如何一步步地去做才能慢下來。所以這里應(yīng)該選D(而是請你考慮一些事，如果有效果就采納）。

2. F考査上下文的語境理解能力。前一句的意思是：重質(zhì)量而不是數(shù)量。后一句是：把那些小的日常生活中的瑣事推遲一下。所以選F(挑選2〜3件重要的事做，甚至一件重要的事，先做這些）。

3.B考查上下文的語境理解能力。第二條的小標(biāo)題是"少一些約會"�？蘸蟮囊馑际牵哼@些應(yīng)酬把你想做的事給擠掉了，使你很匆忙。B的意思（約會通常很浪費(fèi)時(shí)間）與此一致。

4. A考查上下文的語境理解能力。第三條的標(biāo)題應(yīng)該和段落的內(nèi)容相一致。段落內(nèi)容是：當(dāng)你集中精力做一些重要的事情時(shí)，有些事就會被落下，那就要分析哪些事可以往后拖一拖。所以選A(開始推遲或取消不必要的事）。

5. E考查上下文的語境理解能力。這里是總結(jié)前文，所以選E(記住這一信條：如果大自然能把一切做得井井有條而不匆忙，你也行）。
