试题详情及答案解析
Many people often lose their chance to live life to the fullest because of procrastination, which means that they always delay(拖延)doing something that must be done at once. Moreover, because they often put off their plans till “tomorrow”, they are less likely to achieve their goals and will give up their dreams and goals finally. As a result, we can say that procrastination is the enemy of a progressive lifestyle.
Now that we know procrastination is something bad, why do some people not take immediate action? Well, there are some things that result in procrastination. Depending on someone else rather than doing by oneself is one of the things. Whenever you wait for something to happen before you act, you make it easier to delay your goals and dreams until “someday”. Another cause of procrastination is that people do not value each moment in their day. Actually, it’s surprising how much you can do if you just decide to do little things with the little time you have. Also those who often procrastinate can always find a good reason for something they refuse to do at once.
If you are one of those who often delay, then it’s time for you to make a decision to act now because things happen only when we decide to act. Get down to doing something like losing weight, saving money or spending more time with family. Don’t let these things continue to be a desire(欲望)for you to do “someday”, but make a decision to do it now.
Once you have made your decision, write down the plan and take action immediately. Making plans can help you think carefully about how you are going to do what you need to do. After understanding how to do what you want to do, get doing with the plan. It doesn’t matter how small the move you make is as the little things you do accumulate(累积)over time and move you to be closer to your goals. So, don’t wait until tomorrow; instead, start now! Just make use of every moment you have to do something that is helpful in realizing your dreams and goals.
Here is a challenge that will also move you to be closer to your dreams and goals if taken seriously. Make a list of ten things you have been putting off. It could be anything from getting a health examination, calling a friend or family member, to getting the car fixed and cleaning out the garbage, etc. And then try to develop the habit of doing them immediately!

试题分析:
【小题1】unable/fail  同义词转换。根据第一段第一句Many people often lose their chance to live life to the fullest because of procrastination可知拖延症会让很多人失去获得幸福美满的生活的机会。也就是说会让人无法获得幸福美满的生活,所以使用fail to do sth。
【小题2】stop/ prevent/keep  同义词转换。根据第一段because they often put off their plans till “tomorrow”, they are less likely to achieve their goals and will give up their dreams and goals finally可知患拖延症的人总是把事情拖到明天,会让他们无法实现自己的目标。使用“stop/keep/prevent sb from doing sth阻止某人做某事“的结构。
【小题3】Reasons  总结归纳题。根据第二段第二句Well, there are some things that result in procrastination.表格右边一列讲述的都是为什么人们会拖延的原因。所有使用Reasons,后面使用定语从句进行修饰。
【小题4】independent 同义词转换。根据第二段第三句Depending on someone else rather than doing by oneself is one of the things.可知很多人患拖延症是因为总是依赖他人,这让自己不独立,所以使用形容词independent。
【小题5】moment   原词再现。根据第二段Another cause of procrastination is that people do not value each moment in their day.可知人们不珍惜每一刻,没有意识到生命中每一刻都很重要。
【小题6】excuses   词义转换。根据第二段最后一句Also those who often procrastinate can always find a good reason for something they refuse to do at once.换拖延症的人总是为自己不做某事找借口和理由。
【小题7】 immediately 词义转换。根据第三段最后一句Don’t let these things continue to be a desire(欲望)for you to do “someday”, but make a decision to do it now.可知一旦你做了决定,立刻去做。所以表格里使用副词immediately。
【小题8】know  根据第四段第2句Making plans can help you think carefully about how you are going to do what you need to do.制定计划可以帮助我们仔细思考如何来做需要做的事情。也就是让我们知道如何去做。所以使用动词know。
【小题9】little   同义词转换。根据第四段第四句It doesn’t matter how small the move you make is as the little things you do accumulate(累积)over time and move you to be closer to your goals.可知不关这些事情多么微不足道,都要花费时间去做。把句中的small换成little.
【小题10】habit  原词再现。根据文章最后一句And then try to develop the habit of doing them immediately!可知我们要把准时完成任务当成一种习惯。
