ItTask 11 1What does“procrastinator”mean?Can you explain it in your own words?A procrastinator means someone who delays doing something that he/she ought to do.45知行英语2 2Are you a procrastinator?Here are some symptoms of a procrastinator.Tick those that are true for you.1 Im always a late comer on most occasions.2 I always try to do four or five things at once and do not get one done.3 I always stay up very late although I actually have nothing important to do.4 Im always worried that I cant do anything perfectly,so I choose not to do it now and put it off.5 I always surf on the Internet with no particular purpose for many hours,although I know I havent finished my homework.6 The deadline is approaching,but I just dont want to do my work.I feel very anxious.7 I can come up with many ways to accomplish a particular task,but I have no idea which way I should choose.So finally I put it off.8 Im always very busy because I always have many things on hand.46知行英语3 3Exchange your symptoms with your partner.Whats your symptoms of procrastination?47知行英语Task 21 1In this text,the writer talks about distractions that lead to her procrastination.What are the distractions?Do you have the same problems?Check email,go for a walk,watch the Seahawks game,clutter and snack in the workplace,programs in your computer,TV programs.48知行英语2 2When the writer mentions the distractions,she actually uses two similar structures to tell us that she tends to do something else to delay doing things really important.Here are the two sentences:“Ill just check email one more time before I start.”and“Ill go for a walk after I finish this magazine.”Make a plan for this evening and use“before”or“after”to link the two things you will do.EXAMPLE:I will go to the library to read some magazines before I play the piano this evening.I am going to watch the show before I go home this evening.I am going to finish my paper before I chat with my roommates tonight.I will fix my computer after I atten
