Question

I used to be the messiest person alive．Over the years, through watching others and by trial and error, I have finally found ways to come up with plans, organize them and follow through with them．

Make an outline of everything you need to have and do to make your plan happen．Make a list of all of the steps that need to be accomplished and think about what needs to be done．

Detail everything thoroughly and read over it so you can start coming up with some mental solutions of how to carry out your plans．

You should ensure that if for some reason way one doesn’t work, you have way two and way three to lean back on．Therefore, different ways are needed at hand．It’s just a matter of being organized．Chances are that there is always more than one way of doing things, and chances are that if one of those ways doesn’t work, one of the other ones will．

Committing yourself to finishing at least part if not all of your plan at once is also necessary．It will show that you not only have initiative to get things rolling, but that you are interested in the results obtained with making the move to get everything done．

If you make a commitment to finish before a specific time, make sure that you carry that out, and be sure to do everything in the way you said you would, within the time-frame you set for yourself．

Don’t try to tackle more things all at a time．All that does is delay your progress, distract you and make you lose your interest, motivation and energy．

Carrying out an effective plan requires being as organized as possible．You will only achieve this by sticking to the order of the plan and not deviating or trying to do more at a time．

Last but not least, you should never abandon things mid-project．It will only annoy everyone around you including yourself．Unfinished plans are a waste of time, energy and, in some cases, even money．

So, don’t be afraid of organization．The older we get, the more necessary it becomes to have the skills to follow through with confidence and to be able to carry through plans in an organized and manageable way．It pays to be organized, after all．

試題分析：

1.文章講到作者以前是個(gè)生活很混亂的人，做事沒有條理，后來他想出了一些辦法來使自己變得井井有條。故標(biāo)題應(yīng)該是如何來使你自己生活中變得有條不紊的小竅門。organized有條理的

2.根據(jù)前面小標(biāo)題，tips小竅門，details細(xì)節(jié)及第2題下面方框內(nèi)容可知填目的。Purposes

3.第2自然段可知，write down 寫下你的計(jì)劃

4.第2自然段第2句，Make a list of all of the steps that need to be accomplished and think about what needs to be done．可知列舉一些你要做的步驟。steps 步驟

5.第四自然段可知，你需要準(zhǔn)備兩到三種方法來實(shí)施你的計(jì)劃。故填different 不同的

6.第四自然段可知，這樣做的目的是確保一個(gè)不行時(shí)，另一個(gè)能夠起作用。

7.第五自然段Committing yourself to finishing at least part if not all of your plan at once is also necessary．可知，假如不能完成全部時(shí)，答應(yīng)自己完成一部分，故填promise

8.第六自然段and be sure to do everything in the way you said you would, within the time-frame you set for yourself．可知在自己設(shè)定的時(shí)間期限內(nèi)，做一切事情。

9.倒數(shù)第二段，為了使整個(gè)計(jì)劃徹底完成，不要半途而廢。get sth done 讓…被完成

考點(diǎn)：說明文

點(diǎn)評：此類填表題文章，特別注意一下幾點(diǎn)：

1．忠實(shí)于原文，在原文中找答案，答案在文章中都必須找到相對應(yīng)的地方。

2．注意格式的一致，該大寫的地方就要大寫，注意文章中原詞和答案之間可能存在要進(jìn)行詞性的轉(zhuǎn)變或是名詞單復(fù)數(shù)變化。

3．要善于總結(jié)，平時(shí)概括性的單詞或是起承轉(zhuǎn)合的詞都要有所積累。
