Read the passage and check your understanding by doing the multiple choice exercises. Quality Time You’ve just been given a major task and want to do it well, but it seems that the minute you get started, you’re interrupted. First, Jane stops by. Then, it’s the phone. Later, your boss tells you to drop everything — she’s got a rush job. And you have that meeting at three! All these things are important. If only you could manage them without bending your concentration. And you can! We’ve heard about quality time at home — why not quality time on the job? Begin by finding out those parts of the day during which you’re most creative. You may work best in the morning or in the afternoon. No matter when — just find your time and build a wall around it. Say that for you, quality time begins at ten. Focus on your major task then, and don’t let anything interrupt you. If you have a secretary, tell her or him to hold all calls and visitors. If you don’t, try to ask a colleague to help you. The point is that both outsiders and colleagues will know that you will not be available for a part of each day. Why? Because you are working! Prepare for this special block of time as carefully as you would for an important meeting. Don’t waste precious minutes searching for memos or notes. Be ready to begin precisely at ten, and get the most out of every second. You might like to use your block simply for thinking about a project, problems or a new idea. Start small — maybe thirty or forty minutes, three times a week, building up to at least an hour. Sure, you’ll have to chip away at your block a little sometimes, but guard that hour as you would do to any other valued possession.【缺少答案,请补充】
Read the passage and check your understanding by doing the multiple choice exercises. The Great Storm More Than 30 Years On On 16 October 1987, southern Britain was hit by hurricane-force winds, the worst storm to occur in Britain since 1703. More than twenty years on, Britain is remembering the devastation caused by what came to be known as “The Great Storm”. It strikes many across the region were operated due to the wind, as well as the fact that a new system to protect had made the ground very muddy. The falling trees caused destruction to buildings and vehicles and blocked roads and railway lines, causing everyone from commuters to schoolchildren to stay at home. There were also blackouts across the area, as power lines were damaged by falling trees and flying debris. People rescued in candles and torches-like light, and gas stations and shops grew to run short. The storm swept out of towns, before cars, and claimed 18 lives. The Irish storm caused damage of more than one billion pounds, and sustained injuries to hundreds of people. The effects of the bad weather were heightened by the fact that most people were completely unprepared, because the weather forecasters, some caught out. Earlier that week, weather forecasters had predicted severe weather, but homeowners thought it would rain instead, and only when the English Channel. A weatherman, Michael Fish is infamous for saying the storm wouldn’t happen, though in fact he was talking about a hurricane in Florida at the time. This could be the worst thing happens today in Britain? Will, as a result of climate change, more people lives that sudden and severe weather damage any more likely. However, meteorological technology has improved, and more sets measures to get a much more accurate picture of things weather, so it’s unlikely Great Storms reoccurring, the British public should be better warned and prepared?【缺少答案,请补充】
