【语篇解读】 本文是说明文。文章为我们提供了击败拖延的四点建议：要承认作出改变的必要性，识别并理解自己的感受，更早地干活儿和利用五分钟原则。
1.A [前文提到拖延使人们生活在持续的压力之下，作出改变将会有积极的效果，空后提到击败拖延的方法，由此可知空处应表达我们该如何作出改变来击败拖延呢？选项A“但怎样改变呢？”符合语境。]
2.G [根据小标题“Acknwledge the need t change.”可知，此部分是讲要承认作出改变的必要，结合空前面的部分可知，文章作者呼吁拖延者停止找借口并承认拖延不好，否则就不会相信有改变的必要。G项说明了不这样做的结果，符合语境。]
3.D [根据此部分的小标题“Identify and understand yur feelings.”可知，此部分主要在说识别和理解你的感受。再结合常识可知，你可能会对任务的规模感到害怕、为自己的效率感到骄傲、为自己的时间感到焦虑，这些是很正常的，故选项D符合语境。]
4.B [该空为段落主旨句，结合其他段落主旨句可知，此处也应用祈使句；又根据该部分的内容可知，该段是讲尽可能早点开始一件事情。]
5.F [根据语境可知，此部分主要讲五分钟原则的使用：强迫你自己只花五分钟做一项任务，如果你想，你可以在五分钟后停止。根据空前和空后的内容可知，此处应说明这样做的原因，即通常只是为了让你开始行动，这样可以很好地衔接下文，故选项F符合语境。]
