They say prcrastinatin ( 拖 延 ) is the thief f time — actually deadlines are. New research has fund that if yu want smene t help yu ut with smething, it is best nt t set a deadline at all. But if yu d set a deadline, make it shrt.
Prfessr Stephen Knwles tested the effect f deadline length n task cmpletin fr their research. Participants were invited t cmplete an nline survey cncerning a charity dnatin. They were given either ne week, ne mnth, r n deadline t respnd. Prfessr Knwles says althugh the tpic f the survey is abut charity, the results are true f any situatin where smene asks anther persn fr help.
The study fund respnses t the survey were lwest fr the ne-mnth deadline and highest when n deadline was specified. N deadline and the ne-week deadline led t many early respnses, while a lng deadline appeared t give peple permissin t prcrastinate, and then frget. Prfessr Knwles wasn’t surprised t find that specifying a shrter deadline increased the chances f receiving a respnse cmpared t a lnger deadline. Hwever, he did find it interesting that they received the mst respnses when n
deadline was specified.
“We interpret this as evidence that specifying a lnger deadline, as ppsed t a shrt deadline r n deadline at all, remves the urgency t act,” he says. “Peple therefre put ff undertaking the task, and since they are inattentive r frget, pstpning it results in lwer respnse rates.”
He says f the research that it is pssible that nt specifying a deadline might still have led participants t assume that there is an unspken deadline. Prfessr Knwles hpes his research can help reduce the amunt f prcrastinating peple d. “Many peple prcrastinate. They have the best intentins f helping smene ut, but just d nt get arund t ding it.”
Why did Prfessr Knwles d the research?
T study the rle a deadline plays in prcrastinatin.
T find ut whether peple are interested in charity.
T attract public attentin t the effects f prcrastinatin.
T test the effect f prcrastinatin n task cmpletin.
What mst likely leads t prcrastinatin?
A. N deadlines.B. Shrt deadlines.C. Specific deadlines.D. Lng deadlines.
What’ s the attitude f Prfessr Knwles t the findings f the study?
A. Interested.B. Cnservative.C. Cnfused.D. Unsurprised.
Which f the fllwing is the best title fr the text?
Prcrastinatin — the Thief f Time
Prcrastinatin — the Urgent Prblem t Slve
Deadline — the Key t Reducing Prcrastinatin
Deadline — a Result f Prcrastinatin

whipping (打) at his hair, the rain wetting his clthes. Jeremy shk his head. “He's crazy if he thinks I’m ging with him,” he said. “Maybe I wuld have when I was a little kid, but nt nw,” he said.

They say prcrastinatin ( 拖 延 ) is the thief f time — actually deadlines are. New research has fund that if yu want smene t help yu ut with smething, it is best nt t set a deadline at all. But if yu d set a deadline, make it shrt.
Prfessr Stephen Knwles tested the effect f deadline length n task cmpletin fr their research. Participants were invited t cmplete an nline survey cncerning a charity dnatin. They were given either ne week, ne mnth, r n deadline t respnd. Prfessr Knwles says althugh the tpic f the survey is abut charity, the results are true f any situatin where smene asks anther persn fr help.
The study fund respnses t the survey were lwest fr the ne-mnth deadline and highest when n deadline was specified. N deadline and the ne-week deadline led t many early respnses, while a lng deadline appeared t give peple permissin t prcrastinate, and then frget. Prfessr Knwles wasn’t surprised t find that specifying a shrter deadline increased the chances f receiving a respnse cmpared t a lnger deadline. Hwever, he did find it interesting that they received the mst respnses when n
deadline was specified.
“We interpret this as evidence that specifying a lnger deadline, as ppsed t a shrt deadline r n deadline at all, remves the urgency t act,” he says. “Peple therefre put ff undertaking the task, and since they are inattentive r frget, pstpning it results in lwer respnse rates.”
He says f the research that it is pssible that nt specifying a deadline might still have led participants t assume that there is an unspken deadline. Prfessr Knwles hpes his research can help reduce the amunt f prcrastinating peple d. “Many peple prcrastinate. They have the best intentins f helping smene ut, but just d nt get arund t ding it.”
Why did Prfessr Knwles d the research?
T study the rle a deadline plays in prcrastinatin.
T find ut whether peple are interested in charity.
T attract public attentin t the effects f prcrastinatin.
T test the effect f prcrastinatin n task cmpletin.
What mst likely leads t prcrastinatin?
A. N deadlines.B. Shrt deadlines.C. Specific deadlines.D. Lng deadlines.
What’ s the attitude f Prfessr Knwles t the findings f the study?
A. Interested.B. Cnservative.C. Cnfused.D. Unsurprised.
Which f the fllwing is the best title fr the text?
Prcrastinatin — the Thief f Time
Prcrastinatin — the Urgent Prblem t Slve

I yawned (打哈欠)as I gt ff the last step f the bus. I had wken early that mrning, and had nt been able t sleep n the lng ride frm Riverside High, thinking abut that day’s race, the Eye Opener. I had never raced in a state-wide race befre. Over thirty high schl teams ran, alng with quite a few clleges. The rest f my team and I unladed the bus, and we relaxed and waited fr ur race patiently.
“Start warming up,” ur cach tld us, rughly frty-five minutes after we arrived.
After finishing ur stretches, we headed ver t the starting line, eager fr the race t begin.
The starter walked t the middle f the field. “There will be tw cmmands,” his vice bmed, ‘‘Runners set, then the gun. If yu hear anther sht, return t the starting line t start again.” My heart raced as I gt my legs ready t race.
“Runners set!” the starter shuted Bam! The gun fired, and he rushed ut f ur way. Adrenaline (肾上腺素)rushed thrugh my bdy as I raced thrugh the mass f runners. As I runded the first turn, my schlmates greeted me with heartening shuts. Then, in what felt
like nly ne minute, I arrived at the ne mile mark.
