Shut up!-|||-or else I`ll @-|||-kill you!Looking at the undone homework on his desk always makes David feel uncomfortable.Often,David leaves his homework behind and surfs the Internet or watches TV instead,waiting until the last minute. "The longer I wait,the more I worry." says David,aged 15. Everyone procrastinates(拖延)because they want to feel good now.The way to do that is to avoid the task.You can procrastinate on nearly anything,even enjoyable tasks such as planning a vacation. "Some people procrastinate cleaning.Some people procrastinate by cleaning," says Professor Peter Stone.Research has shown that the top tasks that young people procrastinate are studying and going to bed. "The most important cause for procrastination is that people are afraid of failure,of not meeting others expectations(期待)," Stone adds. Some people usually feel confident about procrastination.They think they could do things better.But researchers disagree. "I did a study several years ago,asking procrastinators to finish a task in a certain period of time," says Stone. "They did worse than non-procrastinators (people who don't procrastinate):they made more mistakes and they took longer.But they thought they did better." No matter what the cause is procrastination is not going to be good for you.For example,bedtime procrastination can lead to sleeplessness,which in turn can cause many other health problems. For those who need some drives to stop procrastinating,the best advice might be to take action first.If you've been procrastinating on exercise,just put on your walking shoes.A little bit of progress will get you moving.Next,find something to help you remember to take action If you want to go to bed at 10:30 pm,you might set a timed dimmer switch(渐暗开关) at 10 p.m..When the lights are dimmer,you'll start going to bed.It works for most people.Finally,reward yourself every time you make progress.For example,after you've run 3 km,enjoy your favorite ice-cream.But be careful:it won't work the other way around.(1)How does the writer lead into the topic of procrastination in Paragraph One? ____ A.By raising a question.B.y listing numbers.C.By giving an example.(2)What is the most important reason for people's procrastination? ____ A.Procrastinators can do jobs better.B.They hope to finish the top tasks first.C.Procrastinators fear to lose and let others down.(3)From Stone's study we can know that ____ .A.procrastination does no good to peopleB.doing cleaning is a good way to procrastinateC.procrastinators work better than non-procrastinators(4)The underlined word "reward" in Paragraph Four probably means ____ .A.奖励B.打击C.提升(5)What can be the best title for this passage? ____ A. day of a procrastinator.B.Say goodbye to procrastination.C.Want to feel good now?Procrastinate!

  • The increase in international business and in foreign investment has created a need for executives with knowledge of foreign languages and skills in cross-cultural communication. Americans, however, have not been well trained in either area and, consequently, have not enjoyed the same level of success in negotiation in an international arena as have their foreign counterparts. Negotiating is the process of communicating back and forth for the purpose of reaching an agreement. It involves persuasion and compromise, but in order to participate in either one, the negotiators must understand the ways in which people are persuaded and how compromise is reached within the culture of the negotiation. In many international business negotiations abroad, Americans are perceived as wealthy and impersonal. It often appears to the foreign negotiator that the American represents a large multi-million-dollar corporation that can afford to pay the price without bargaining further. The American negotiator’s role becomes that of an impersonal supplier of information and cash. In studies of American negotiators abroad, several traits have been identified that may serve to confirm this stereotypical perception, while undermining the negotiator’s position. Two traits in particular that cause cross-cultural misunderstanding are directness and impatience on the part of the American negotiator. Furthermore, American negotiators often insist on realizing short-term goals. Foreign negotiators, on the other hand, may value the relationship established between negotiators and may be willing to invest time in it for long-term benefits. In order to solidify the relationship, they may opt for indirect interactions without regard for the time involved in getting to know the other negotiator. Clearly, perceptions and differences in values affect the outcomes of negotiations and the success of negotiators. For Americans to play a more effective role in international business negotiations, they must put forth more effort to improve cross-cultural understanding.

The man with knowledge of foreign languages and skills in cross-cultural communication. C. The man who is wealthy and impersonal. D. The man who can negotiate with his foreign counterparts.
