[单选题]In the digital age,we are forced to move quickly and expected to respond and get things done instantaneously.The rise in digital tools and platforms also aids in great distraction,and many people are left feeling paralyzed about how to be better,faster and Lip to date with everything they need to know in their work and personal lives.lt's exhausting.For anyone feeling the all-too-familiar procrastination and avoidance that comes from a world with too many choices and pressures,here are five tips to make sure you are keeping on top of everything and avoiding distraction in the digital age.1.Whether it's a Google doc,or something more robust like Workfront,there's no shame in needing a little help to get-and keep-yourself organized.Once you adopt a system,customize it to how you like to work,and stick with it.Just don't let it overwhelm you.If you can keep track of all your due dates and tasks in one place-rather than in your email,in a written notepad,on a whiteboard etc.-it's much easier to see the big picture and be able to prioritize.2.You can't climb a mountain in one giant leap,but you can climb it in a bunch of small steps.The same goes for getting things done.Break your tasks down into smaller chunks that are easier to accomplish.If something has been lingering on your list for a few days,figure out at least one thing you can do today to start.It helps you build momentum and-trust me-makes everything seem more attainable.3.Nothing is ever perfect.Believe me;I'm a perfectionist.I've tried.And honestly,there are some things that will never be done,You can'i keep tweaking the spacing on an ad forever.You can't change fonts on that document a million times.Don't get stuck if you feel like something isn't 100%.In many cases,98%will be just fine.Or even 95%.Ask for a second opinion if you want.but at some point,call it good enough,and move on.Your sanity will thank you,4.I can't tell you how many times I've arrived at work,looked at my to-do list and thought about how much l was going to accomplish that day.only to have it completely thrown out the window within the first 15 minutes,Things happen.A website goes offline.There's a PR crisis.The internet is down.You have to take a deep breath.prioriiize and acknowledge that some things are just not going to get done today,and you will have to pick it back up 10morrow.There's always tomorrow.5.Another perfectionist flaw:"I can do it all by myself!"You won't get very far if you are always irying to do everything by yourself and you don't allow others to help.It's hard to let things go;it really is.But it's a lot easier when you can trust someone else to handle it than to kill yourself staying until 10 p.m.every night.

[单选题]In a move that could revolutionize the way we buy groceries,Amazon opens its first supermarket without checkouts-human or self-service--to shoppers on Monday.Amazon Go,in Seattle,has been tested by staff for the past year.It uses hundreds of ceiling-mounted cameras and electronic sensors to identify each customer and track what items they select.Purchases are billed to customers'credit cards when they leave the store On entering the store,shoppers walk through gates,swiping their smartphones loaded with the Am-azon Go app.Then they are free to put anything into their own shopping bags.With the help of sensors on the shelves,items are added to customers'Amazon Go account as they pick them up-and delete any they put back.And an electronic receipt is issued as they exit The store opened to employees of the online retail giant in December 2016 and had been expected to allow the public in more quickly.But there were some teething problems with correctly identifying shoppers of similar body types--and children moving items to the wrong places on shelves,according to an Amazon insider.Gianna Puerini said the store had operated well during the test phase Hundreds of infra-red ceiling cameras have been trained over the last year to differentiate between customers as they move around the store,and between items for sale,even those with similar appearances.There are weight sensors on the shelves to help indicate if an item has been taken or put back And some items carry a visual dot code,like a bar code,to help cameras identify them.Amazon isnt offering any information on how accurate the system is.One thing we do know:they're on to the less-than-honest.A New York Times journalist had a go at shoplifting some cans of soft drink,but the system spotted it and put them on his bill Amazon has not said if it will be opening more Go stores,which are separate from the Whole Foods chain that it bought last year for$13.7bn（E10.7bn）.As yet the company has no plans to introduce the technology to the hundreds of Whole Foods stores.However,retailers know that the faster customers can make their purchases,the more likely they are to return.Making the dreaded supermarket queue a thing of the past will give any retailer a huge advantage over its competitors In its third quarter results in October,Amazon for the first time put a figure on the revenues generated by its physical stores:S 1.28bn.Yet almost all of that was generated by Whole Foods.While its stores may not yet be money spinners,analysts have said Amazon is using them to raise brand awareness and promote its Prime membership scheme.Brian Olsavsky,Amazon chief financial officer,recently hinted that rivals should expect more Amazon shops in the months and years ahead You will see more expansion from us-it's still early,so those plans will develop over time,he said in october
In the last paragraph,Brian Olsavsky implies that
A.revenues generated by Go shops surpass that of Whole Foods
B.there will be more Amazon retailer stores in the future
C.Whole Food stores are more competitive than Go shops
D.the retailer stores will take place of the Whore Foods
[单选题]We can make mistakes at any age.Some mistakes we make are about money.But most mistakes?are about people."Did Jerry really care when I broke up with Helen?When I got that great job,did Jim really feel good about it,as a friend?Or did he envy my luck?"When we look back,doubts?like these can make us feel bad.But when we look back,it′s too late.

"Just think of all the things you have to be thankful for"is another noise that says one thing and?means another.It could mean that the speaker is trying to get you to see your problem as part of your life as a whole.But is be?Wrapped up in this phrase is the thought that your problem isn′t important.It′s telling you to think of all the starving people in the world when you haven′t got a date for Saturday night.How can you tell the real meaning behind someone′s words?One way is to take a good look at?the person talking.Do his words fit the way he looks?Does what he says agree with the tone of?voice?His posture?The look in his eyes?Stop and think.The minute you spend thinking about the?real meaning of what people say to you may save another mistake.

[不定项选择题]This is the age of the quick action. We have instant satisfaction, fast food, speed reading, mobile phones; even the stress management books have titles like "Stress Management in 60 Seconds".
Canadian Classics Professor Margaret Visser points out that the perception that we have "no time" is one of the most strict concepts of Western culture. Visser says that "no time" is used as an excuse and also as a spur (刺激); it both goads us and forces us, just as a concept such as "honour" did for the ancient Greeks. According to Visser, the feeling that Westerners have "no time" is abstract, quantitative, amoral (非道德性的), unarguable, bringing pressure on each person as an individual. At the same time, the "no time" excuse escapes censure by claiming to be a condition created entirely out of our good fortune.
Life offers "so many pleasures, so many choices".
The fact that women now work outside the home has contributed to the "no time" trend. But more important, Visser says, is the fact that feeling rushed has become an important component of our economy. Marketing of "time-saving" products causes people to buy more and work longer. So we eat out or buy prepared food to save time. The fax-it-to-me-in-my-car technology only contributes to the constant hurry. In our rushed and exhausted state, even the obligation (义务) to sit down to casual meal with family seems like a pressure. In comparison with the decision to act on a sudden whims (一时的兴致) to consume a microwave mug of soup, the act of eating together and not getting up from the table until everyone else has finished seems an incredibly time-consuming event. Being in one′ s own personal hurry in the West is somehow "free and preferable".
We can learn from the passage that "no time" trend ___________.
A.exerts pressure on the individual
B.is very desirable to the individual
C.is not harmful if you have no control of events
D.has caused heart diseases and psychological problems
