Everyone gets the same amount of time each day. But there are some ways to use those hours better. As a popular saying says, “Work smarter, not harder.” The most important way to manage your time is to set priorities(优先权).9.　　　　 Also, consider whether or not they are urgent if they need to be done right away. It can be easy to forget important tasks that aren't urgent, so make time for them.  Decide ahead of time what you're going to do at certain times each day. Schedule times not only to meet people but also to do things alone. Then you can make sure everything gets done. 10.　　　　 Are you smarter in the morning, afternoon or evening? Schedule difficult tasks for times you feel good, saving easy ones for when you're tired.  Write down what you need to do and when. I keep two to-do lists: one for the present tasks and one for larger projects I'm working on. 11.　　　　 And I don't get discouraged by looking at a long list of items I can't finish. I focus on the shorter list of each day's tasks.  12.　　　　 When someone wants to give you a task, think carefully. Is it really important enough to spend your precious(宝贵的) time on? Could someone else do it instead?  13.　　　　 If you're in charge of running a meeting, keep it short. Reading articles or talking to friends online can also use up much of your time. Don't allow it.  In the end, using time well is about making a good plan and sticking to it. A.Think about the time of day you work best. B.That way I can make sure I don't forget anything. C.You need to organize time properly. D.Often, managing time means saying no to things that aren't so important. E.Meetings also tend to be a waste of time, so avoid them whenever possible. F.Figure out(弄明白) which of your tasks is the most important. Ⅲ.阅读填表格 请阅读下面短文,在下面的表格中填入与文章意思最符合的单词。每空一词。 Everyone speaks a language, but language is not just for talking. It is our most important communication tool. Through language, we can tell other people what we think, how we feel, and what we need. In fact, civilization(文明) itself depends on our ability to communicate. In the long history of humans, languages survive, grow, disappear, move from place to place, and change with time. There are about 6,000 different living languages around the world today, and there are many thousands more that are no longer in use. Languages might sound different, but they are thought to have come from a single ancient language. Nobody knows exactly when people first started using language. Some scientists say that people first spoke to one another about two million years ago. Today, our sophisticated(复杂的) languages get fully used in the magazines, novels, science books, and movies that fill our libraries and bookstores. As humans, it is important that we can tell the long stories, which separate us from the great apes (类人猿). Other animals may use various methods to communicate, but we humans send complicated messages through space and time. Throughout history there were many languages that served as a lingua franca (通用语)—a common language that could serve as a bridge between people of different cultures. Today, English is the main language that plays that role around the world. Many people have studied English as the second or third language. Language helps people to work together, to share knowledge, feelings, and build up modern societies. The development of humanity's many languages was an important process that helped huma
