Passage 10
Many people procrastinate(拖延). They always delay(使延迟) doing something that must be done at once. Moreover, because they often put off their plans till "tomorrow", they are more likely to fail to achieve their goals.
Procrastination is something bad, but why do some people not take action to change? Well, there are some things that lead to procrastination. Depending on someone else rather than doing things by oneself is one of the causes.
So, don't wait until tomorrow. Get down to doing something like losing weight, saving money or spending more time with family at once.
Once you have made your decision, write down the plan and take action at once. Making plans can help you think about how you are going to do what you need to do. After understanding how to do what you want to do, go ahead with the plan. It doesn't matter how small the move is as the little things accumulate(累积) over time and move you to be closer to your goals.
Here is a challenge that will also move you to be closer to your dreams and goals if taken seriously.
A. Make a list of ten things you have been putting off.
B. Ask teachers or friends for help to deal with procrastination.
C. There are several problems which are caused by procrastination.
D. As a result, we can say that procrastination is the enemy of a good lifestyle.
E. Another cause of procrastination is that people do not value each moment in their day.
F. If you are one of those who often delay what you need to do, then it's time for you to make a decision to act now.

【分析】
首先通读全文，梳理文章整体行文脉络：本文是一篇关于拖延症的说明文，先介绍拖延的普遍表现与带来的负面影响，接着分析拖延行为的几大成因，最后给出改掉拖延的具体实操建议。解题时逐空定位前后文的逻辑关联，抓住关键词匹配对应选项：
1. 第1空的前文罗列了拖延的典型表现、拖延会让人难以达成目标的后果，需要一个总结性的语句承接上文的危害描述，自然引出下文对拖延相关问题的进一步探讨。
2. 第2空前文刚提到“依赖他人而非自己做事是拖延的成因之一”，后文用Also引出拖延的又一个表现，这里需要衔接“另一个成因”的过渡句，匹配对应逻辑的选项。
3. 第3空前文提到小行动不断积累就能让人离目标越来越近，后文呼吁大家用好每一刻去实现目标，这里需要顺承给出面向拖延人群的行动呼吁，衔接前后内容。
4. 第4空前文提到有一个能帮大家靠近目标的挑战，后文列举了这个挑战可以包含的各类小事，这里需要引出这个挑战的具体内容，匹配对应选项。
【解析】
1. 第1空：前文阐述拖延者总把待办事项推到“明天”，大概率无法实现目标，D选项“As a result, we can say that procrastination is the enemy of a good lifestyle.”是对前文拖延危害的总结，起到承上启下的作用，符合语境，故选D。
2. 第2空：前文点明拖延的其中一个成因是习惯依赖他人，E选项“Another cause of procrastination is that people do not value each moment in their day.”刚好对应前文的“one of the causes”，引出第二个拖延成因，和后文Also引出的第三个成因顺承衔接，逻辑通顺，故选E。
3. 第3空：前文说明哪怕微小的行动不断积累，也会让人逐步靠近目标，F选项“If you are one of those who often delay what you need to do, then it's time for you to make a decision to act now.”顺承前文的行动意义，向拖延人群发出立刻行动的呼吁，衔接后文珍惜每一刻实现目标的内容，符合语境，故选F。
4. 第4空：前文提到有一个能帮大家靠近目标的挑战，后文列举了各类可以立刻去做的小事，A选项“Make a list of ten things you have been putting off.”点明这个挑战的具体内容就是列出拖延的待办清单，和后文列举的各类事项完美衔接，故选A。
