英語(yǔ)六級(jí)閱讀強(qiáng)化練習(xí)原文

　　Some study suggests that about 15% of our time is wasted on looking for misplaced files andpaperwork at the office. People gel really defensive when you tell them that their desk is amess. They say that they don't have time to clean up. as they are too busy. And if they wouldfile certain items they would forger cowork on it and would therefore miss the deadline.

　　Hence. first things first. get yourself some folders and a black marker. Take every piece of paperon yourdesk one by one and file them. Make sure that everything you need to do with thesepapers is written down on a "to-do" list or even better in your computer organiser. For example.if you have to work on your budget next Monday, write down "work on budget" in yourcomputer organiser so that when Monday comes, your computer will send you a reminder thatyou need co work on your budget today. Then file that paper in a folder named "budget". Putthat folder away-not on your desk!! But in your filing cabinet. Proceed this way with every bitof information that clutters your desk. Do not get distracted by a form that reminds you thatyou need to do something. Instead. jot it down on your "to-do" list or in your organiser. Youwon't forget it as it has been written down. File it and move on. Keep focused. Only do onething at a time for the moment and that is to organise and clean your desk.

　　英語(yǔ)六級(jí)閱讀強(qiáng)化練習(xí)答案

　　1.作者提到他的同事不記得桌面的顏色，他是想要暗示_______________。

　　A) 桌面的顏色這樣的事情太瑣碎，很難記得住

　　B) 人們總是忙于辦公室工作

　　C) 人們總是亂放文具

　　D) 雜亂無(wú)章的辦公室讓人無(wú)法忍受

　　[C]題干是首段第2句的內(nèi)容，是針對(duì)該段首句“抽屜及文件柜里的東西最終在他們的鍵盤上堆積成山”的進(jìn)一步形象說(shuō)明，可見(jiàn)作者以此暗示“人們總是胡亂堆放文具”，因此C為本題答案。

　　2. 作者最可能跟同事說(shuō)什么?

　　A) 作者告訴他要將不必要的文書(shū)工作擺在一邊。

　　B) 作者讓他把正在做的文書(shū)工作紿自己。

　　C)作者建議他要記得東西擺放的地方。

　　D) 作者建議他做事情要一件一件地來(lái)。

　　[A]根據(jù)首段末句那位同事的回答可以推斷作者對(duì)他說(shuō)的內(nèi)容應(yīng)該是：整理辦公桌，把不必要的文件文具清理干凈，由此可見(jiàn)，本題應(yīng)選A。本段主要針對(duì)“亂七八糟的辦公桌”這個(gè)話題，B、D都與此主題無(wú)關(guān)，不能選;C與主題關(guān)系不密切，也不能選。

　　3. 有些人認(rèn)為留在桌面上的文件_____________。

　　A) 有電腦的作用

　　B) 是一個(gè)項(xiàng)目的副產(chǎn)品

　　C) 提醒自己還有什么工作要做

　　D) 證明了他們的工作有多么忙

　　[C]第2段末句中的if...they would forget表明有些人把文件堆放在桌面上以防忘記要做的事，因此本題應(yīng)選C。A.B均無(wú)原文依據(jù);D中的busy一詞在第2段倒數(shù)第2句提及，但這一句與下一句沒(méi)有邏輯上的因果關(guān)系，故不能選。

　　4. 一個(gè)“預(yù)算”文件夾是用來(lái)___________。

　　A) 保存“待做事情”清單的

　　B) 記錄已經(jīng)做了的事情的

　　C) 記錄公司的預(yù)算

　　D)保存對(duì)未來(lái)的工作任務(wù)有用的東西

　　[D]末段提到了整理桌面文件的步驟，還舉了具體的例子，如要做預(yù)算報(bào)告，先將任務(wù)記錄在計(jì)算機(jī)整理器中，然后將資料歸人“budget"檔案，以備今后使用，因此，budget收藏的是在將來(lái)可能有用的資料，即D項(xiàng)所述。

　　5. 作者認(rèn)為，眼下最重要的事情是_________________。

　　A) 分類辦公室工作的優(yōu)先順序

　　B) 將文書(shū)工作歸檔來(lái)整理辦公桌面

　　C) 把注意力敢在正在做的事情上面

　　D) 不要再把所有東西都堆在桌面上

　　[B]末段末句的Only do one thing... and that is... 表明該句提到的就是現(xiàn)在所要做的最重要的事，B的內(nèi)容與that is后的內(nèi)容相同，因此選B。
