An Integrated English Course IIIUnit 2Text 1 Tyranny of the UrgentKey to ExercisesText comprehensionI. Decide which of the following is the biggest problem we may have in using our time.C. Jumbled priorities are, according to Hummel, the biggest problem we have in time management. Hummel points out in the third paragraph that the real problem is not shortage of time but that of priorities. We have spent too much time dealing with urgent tasks that are hardly important in the long run while neglecting those that are truly important.II. Judge, according to the text, whether the following statements are true or false.1. F. A day with thirty hours is almost as good as one with twenty-four in relieving us of the pressure because the problem is not the length of time but the way to spend our time. Even if we have a 30-hour day, we still cannot finish all the tasks required because there is simply no end to any type of work.2. F. The passage of time will not help us to catch up because we may be charged with more important tasks, or simply more tasks, with the passage of time. A mother's work is never finished when her children grow up; nor is that of a manager when he mounts a higher position in his company.3. F. Hard work does not wear us out. We can still feel a sense of achievement and joy upon accomplishing a difficult and important task. It is doubt and misgiving that make us weary when we look back and find so many tasks left undone that should have been finished.4. T. Urgent things are those that call for immediate action and hold momentary appeals; they are not necessarily important in the long term. Important things rarely must be done today or tomorrow.III. Answer the following questions.1. No. We must ensure we are working hard on important things rather than those that are merely urgent.2. Learning to prioritize. We shouldn't let the urgent crowd out the truly important things while merely doing those that are not really important.3. Because urgent things call for instant attention and immediate action while important things hardly do so. If we crowd our schedule with too many urgent engagements, we will have less time to deal with truly important things.4. The development of modem science and technology, especially that of the modem means of communication, is accused as an accomplice of the tyranny of the urgent. The telephone line has tied us to the fast-growing outside world to which we have to give instant response. So our life has been cursed with endless callings and intrusions, for which the development of modem technology is partially responsible.5. No. The message the writer wants to convey is that we should not let urgent things crowd out important things. He does not mean we should leave urgent things unnoticed.IV. Explain in your own words the following sentences taken from the text.1. He did not realize what an impact his words had on me. They often return to my mind andreproach me with the grave problem of priorities.2. But from a long-term perspective, they no longer seem to be important as they promised, and we suffer from a sense of loss when we recall those important tasks left undone.Structural analysis of the textThe writer supports his argument by using a number of facts and examples in addition to reasoning.Rhetorical features of the textSo we find ourselves working more and enjoying it less (Paragraph 2 ); "we have left undone those things, which we ought to have done; and we have done those things which we ought not to have done" ( Paragraph 3).Vocabulary exercisesI.

Text Organization1.11.2Para. 1 serves as an introduction to why friendships end.Para. 6 serves as a conclusion: Anyway, most friendships do enrich our lives no matter whether they are long or short.2. Comprehension Check2.1 Focusing on the main ideasWhy do friendships end? The author offers some insights into the question. Friendships end because the situations friends are in change.These changes can’t help but affect a friendship. Next, the friends themselves may change. The breakups can be mutual or one-sided. It hurts less when both friends change. What tends to hurt most is when just one friend changes. A third reason is that as much as two people might want a friendship to survive, one or both of them might unintentionally neglect it. Lastly, conflicts can cause the end of a friendship, since most friendships have breaking points under pressure.2.2 Digging into detail1. Why do some friendships end, no matter how much you want them tolast?2. When you decide to relocate for a new school or job, this can’thelp but affect a friendship. Likewise, if a friend of yours is in an accident, develops an illness, or loses someone close, these situations can’t help but affect a friendship. These events can end friendships if the necessary adjustments are not made. 3. For example, when one or both friends start to date or get married,their friendship may come to an end. It hurts less when both friends want to do so. It tends to hurt most when just one friend changes.4. Friendship needs regular care. Taking a friendship for granted cancause it to break.5.

Yet, no matter how much we value friendship, sometimes we do drift apart from one another. Without noticing it we may fail to invest enough time and effort in maintaining our relationships.
