From time to time, even the most productive professionals procrastinate（拖延）. When your tendency to procrastinate is starting to make your overall quality of work and life suffer, 1.. Here’s what Forbes Coaches Council members recommend doing to stop racing the clock.
Take the tiniest step possible
When you don’t feel motivated, take the smallest step possible toward your goal. After taking that step,you’re more likely to continue taking more steps toward that goal. 2..
Give yourself a hard deadline, and then schedule it
The best way to overcome a natural tendency to procrastinate is to create a hard deadline for yourself and then put it on the calendar. 3.. Then honor it the same way you would if your boss were waiting for you to complete the task.
4.
Become a detective or a scientist about your pattern of procrastinating. Notice your thoughts, feelings,behaviors and the situation when you feel like procrastinating. Write these down. Often perfectionism, which we may experience as anxiety, underlies the tendency to postpone action. Once you understand your pattern, you can hold yourself accountable in a positive and self-compassionate way.
Give yourself a reward for each task you complete
5.. Then give yourself a little reward for doing it. (piece of candy, a few minutes on Social media, etc.). Then do something on your list that you want to do and continue alternating from there. This makes your tasks less daunting.
A．Identify a positive outcome from your action
B．Treat the deadline the same as if your boss created it
C．Understand the underlying reasons you’re procrastinating
D．find a way to make overcoming procrastination interesting
E．it’s time to do a reality check and break yourself of the habit
F．Make a list of things you need to do and do the one you don’t want to do first
G．Instead of telling yourself to work out for an hour, say you’ll go for 10 minutes
Any time we burn fossil fuels, we’re pumping fine particulate matter（细颗粒物）from oil, gas and
other toxins（毒素）into the air. “Some of these carbon particles can persist in the lungs for decades,” says Dr. Don Sin, a respirologist and director of the Centre for Heart Lung Innovation in Vancouver.
Over 7,000 Canadians died from complications due to poor air quality in 2015. A study in the European Heart Journal earlier this year found that air pollution now kills 8.8 million people worldwide per year —more than tobacco smoking.
Sin adds that women’s lungs seem particularly easy to get cancer from pollution. Currently, 10,000
Canadian women die of lung cancer every year, and 15 per cent of new cases are people who have never smoked. “In Canada, lung-cancer deaths in female non-smokers will very soon probably outnumber the deaths from breast cancer, because lung cancer is so deadly,” he says.
Contributing to air pollution are the 8,000 wildfires we experience every year in Canada, like those that destroyed large areas of Alberta this past spring. These are increasing in frequency and intensity with our hotter, drier spells. A study in the Canadian Journal of Emergency Medicine found that prescriptions for an asthma and COPD drug rose by 22 per cent in the Yellowknife region in the summer of 2014, when it was surrounded by wildfire smoke. The number of ER visits for breathing problems was 42 per cent higher; for children, it more than doubled.
Another threat to breathing is mould, which is a concern in areas with repeated flooding, such as around New Brunswick’s Saint John River, where floodwaters have been in homes for two years in a row and displaced more than 200 families. Moulds produce toxins and spores that can trigger allergic reactions or infections if taken in. Rising sea levels and increased urban development, combined with intense rainfalls, mean we will see a lot more of it.
To avoid breathing polluted air, wear a mask rated N95 — not a surgical mask, which is useless, says Sin. “Those are too thin and easily torn. They won’t protect you at all from air particles.” On bad-air days,get your exercise indoors, for instance by walking in an air-conditioned mall.

Jellyfish are unusual creatures. They’re neither fish nor jelly. Some are among the most colourful creatures in the world, but it’s best to look but not touch these invertebrates（无脊椎动物）. Not only are they very fragile creatures, but many give a painful sting, and some are even deadly. Whether you admire them in an aquarium or try to avoid them in the wild, you won’t be able to get these fascinating jellyfish facts out of your head.
Here’s a jellyfish fact that might come in handy: There are several names for a group of jellyfish. They include smack, bloom, and swarm. Choose the word you prefer depending on whether you think the jellyfish pack looks like a garden of blooming flowers or more like a frightening pack of stingers, and whether you’re admiring them at an aquarium or if you and your fellow snorkelers are surrounded.
Jellyfish have two main forms in their life cycle that look quite different from each other. Scientific American explains that an adult jellyfish, called a medusa, has a bell-shaped body with tentacles（触须）flowing down below it. Young jellyfish, called polyps, look more like sea anemones, with shorter tentacles that flow up above the main body. Medusas reproduce by releasing eggs.
Melanie Roberts, Senior Aquarist at SeaWorld Orlando, says that the largest jellyfish in the world is a lion’s mane jellyfish. The body of this beautiful orange jelly can grow up to three feet in diameter. With its 12,000 tentacles that can grow 120 feet long, Oceana.org adds that the lion’s mane jelly compares in size to the planet’s largest animal: the blue whale.
Regardless of their size, jellyfish are mostly made of water. In fact, they’re about 95 per cent water.These creatures don’t have brains, blood, or bones. And most jellyfish don’t have eyes. Jellyfish also use their mouths both for eating and for waste removal.
1.Why can’t we touch jellyfish?
A.Because they may be stung.
B.Because they may die easily.
C.Because they may feel painful.
D.Because they may hurt people.
2.What are jellyfish named after?
A.Its size. B.Its color.
C.Its appearance. D.Its lifestyle.
3.What can we learn from the passage?
A.Mouth is an important organ for jellyfish.
B.Polyps can clone themselves by laying eggs.
C.The largest jellyfish in the world is 120 feet long.
D.Medusas have tentacles flowing up above the body.
4.What can be the best title of the passage?
A.Several facts about jellyfish.
B.The two main forms of jellyfish.
C.Jellyfish are neither fish nor jelly.
D.Jellyfish have many different names.
