Just think what you could do with an extra hour or two each day: you could finally stick to an exercise routine, or springclean the house, or write your novel, or learn the guitar and so on._36_ But I can help you find more hours in your day for the things that really matter. Get Out of Bed EarlierIf you normally get up at 7：30 am., try getting up at 7：00 am. That halfhour might not sound like much, but it could be time that you use to exercise, to read that book youve been meaning to finish. _37_ Do the Important Tasks FirstOnce you get to work, get the important ones done first (not the easy ones, or even the urgent ones). You can afford to spend at least an hour working on big, important tasks rather than on all those little urgent ones._38_ The urgent tasks will still get done, and you wont miss the important ones. Reduce InterruptionsIf colleagues have a habit of hanging around your desk to chat, or if the phone is constantly ringing, you might find that it takes you half the day to finish a simple task like writing a letter. Continous interruptions dont just eat up time, they also break your concentration. When youve got a big task to focus on, let your calls go to voicemail. _39_ .Wearing headphones(耳机) makes it less likely that people will try to begin a conversation. _40_A few minutes chatting, browsing the web, and so on, can easily turn into hours of wasted time over the course of a day.If your concentration is slipping, take a proper break: go and get a glass of water, or stretch your legs a bit. And if youre facing a difficult task, try breaking it into small steps or stages so that its easier to deal with.AStay Focused on Your WorkBTake Breaks When NecessaryCIf you have an office door, close it.DIf you work like this, youll usually save time.EWould you want me to make your day longer?FI cant magically make all your days 25 hours long.GOr simply to get your day off to a calm and organized start.第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A, B, C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。Many years ago, I worked as a salesman in a pany.
