One day an expert in time management was speaking to a group of business students and, to drive home a point, used an illustration(实例) those students will never forget.
As he stood in front of the group of top students he said, “Okay, time for a quiz. ” Then he pulled out a onegallon, widemouthed mason jar and set it on the table in front of him.
He then produced about a dozen fistsized rocks and carefully placed them, one at a time, into the jar. When the jar was filled to the top and no more rocks would fit inside, he asked, “ Is the jar full？”
Everyone in the class said, “ Yes. ”
He replied, “ Really？”
He reached under the table and pulled out a bucket of gravel, then dumped(倾倒) some gravel in and shook the jar causing pieces of gravel to work themselves down into the space between the big rocks.
He asked the group once more, “Is the jar full？”
By this time the class knew something about the teacher's purpose. “Probably not，” one of them answered.
“ Good ! ” he replied.
He reached under the table and brought out a bucket of sand. He started dumping the sand in the jar and it went into all the spaces left between the rocks and the gravel. Once more he asked the question, “Is the jar full？”
“No ! ” the class shouted.
Once again he said, “ Good ！”
Then he grabbed a pitcher of water and began to pour it in until the jar was filled to the

brim. Then he looked at the class and asked, “ What is the point of this illustration？”
One student stood and said, “ The point is, no matter how full your schedule is, if you try really hard you can always fit some more things in! ”
“Good answer, but no，” the expert replied. “ That's not my point. The truth this illustration teaches us is: if you don't put the big rocks in first, you'll never get them in at all. What are the ‘big rocks’ in your life? In my life they are my children, my wife, my education, my dreams, doing things that I love, time for myself, my health... Remember to put these BIG ROCKS in first or you'll never get them in at all. ”

如果你忙于琐事，那么，这些琐事就会填满你的生活，你就永远没办法腾出真正的“黄金时光”来处理你的大事和要事。因此我们要先把“大事”做完，这样才能做完所有的事。
1．解析：由第一段中的“to drive home a point, used an illustration(实例) those students will never forget”可知，时间管理专家做小测验的目的是清楚地解释他的观点。因此答案为C。
答案：C
2．解析：由第三段第二句中的“When the jar was filled to the top and no more rocks would fit inside”可知，石块填满到瓶口，再也塞不下了。当学生们看到这个场景时，认为是放不下任何石块了。因此答案为A。
答案：A
3．解析：由文章中对这个专家的回答由Yes到Probably not，再到No可知，这个玻璃瓶又容纳下了沙砾、沙、水等。这告诉我们，看事情一定要透过现象认识本质。因此可知答案为B“我们不能只看一个问题的表面”。

答案：D
5．解析：通读文章尤其是最后一段中的“Remember to put these BIG ROCKS in first or you'll never get them in at all”可知，本文的主旨是：做事时，一定要先做最重要的事。因此A项“最重要的事要先做”最适合作本文的标题。

答案：A
B
I love charity(慈善)shops and so do lots of other people in Britain because you find quite a few of them on every high street.The charity shop is a British institution，selling everything from clothes to electric goods，all at very good prices.You can get things you won't find in the shops anymore.The thing I like best about them is that your money is going to a good cause and not into the pockets of profitdriven companies，and you are not damaging the planet，but finding a new home for unwanted goods.
The first charity shop was opened in 1947 by Oxfam.The famous charity's appeal to aid postwar Greece had been so successful that it had been flooded with donations(捐赠物)．They decided to set up a shop to sell some of these donations to raise money for that appeal.Now there are over 7,000 charity shops in the UK.My favourite charity shop in my hometown is the Red Cross shop，where I always find children's books，all 10 or 20 pence each.
Most of the people working in the charity shops are volunteers，although there is often a manager who gets paid.Over 90% of the goods in the charity shops are donated by the public.Every morning you see bags of unwanted items outside the front of shops，although they don't encourage this，rather ask people to bring things in when the shop is open.
The shops have very low running costs：all profits go to charity work.Charity shops raise more than ￡110 million a year，funding(资助)medical research，overseas aid，supporting sick and poor children，homeless and disabled people，and much more.What better place to spend your money？You get something special for a very good price and a good moral sense.You provide funds to a good cause and tread lightly on the environment.
