G 根据上文中的"We are sometimes too quick to judge a situation ‎ before it even unfolds(展现）completely"和"And the thing isn’t as bad as our mind makes it be"可知,我们不要急于下结论，而是要后退一步想一想，故选G。 4. D 根据上文中的"take out a pen and paper"和下文中的"Writing your thoughts down will give you a clear idea"可知，找出纸和笔，列出来你 能控制和不能控制的事情，故选D。 5. E 根据下文中的"When you believe that a good thing is coming your way, you prepare yourself for it and work accordingly"可知，要心怀希 望，希望可以提升你的生活，故选E。‎ ‎ ‎ ‎13答案及解析：‎ 答案：A; G; B; D; E 解析：‎ 作者针对如何克服做事拖延这一问题给出了自己的方法——两分钟规则。‎ ‎1. A 【解析】根据设空处后—句“There are two parts of the 2-Minute Rule. ”可知,这里提到了 “两分钟规则”有两部分,所以上文应讲述什么是“两分钟规则”,故选A项。‎ ‎2. G 【解析】设空处后句“For example, washing your dishes immediately after your meal, tossing the laundry in the washing machine, taking ​out the garbage, sending that e-mail, and so on. ”‎ ‎ 提到了许多在两分钟之内就可以完成的事情,G项(有那么多可以在两分钟之内或更短时间内就可以完成的事情却被我们拖延,这令人很吃惊。) 符合语境,故选G项。‎ ‎3. B【解析】根据设空处位于本段结尾处可知,设空处应是对本段内容的总结,B项(这正是这个小规则背后的目的。)总结本段内容,故选B项。‎ ‎4. D 【解析】根据前文的“The 2-Minute Rule works for big goals as well as small goals because of the inertia of life. ” 可知,这里提到了生活的惯性,故D项(一旦你开始做某事,继续做就更容易。)符合语境,故选D项。‎ ‎5.
