C
(2017·西宁检测)Many students often say that they don’t have “enough time” to do all their schoolwork. My __1__is often brief, “You have as much time as the president.” I usually carry on a bit about __2__twenty four hours in the day for everyone, and suggest that “not enough time” is not a(n)__3__explanation of __4__something done.
__5__in graduate school, I tried to prove to one of my professors __6__saying that I was working hard. His answer to me was, “That’s irrelevant. __7__is important is the __8__of your work.”Since then I have had time to think carefully about the trick of “__9__”， and I have come to some __10__all relevant to the problem of how much time we have.
If you analyze the matter, you can identify two parts of the problem: There is, __11__，the matter of “time”， which we can think of __12__. Then there is the problem of “work” during that time. But, as my professor suggested, it’s not how hard one works __13__the quality of the product that’s important.
That led me to a new idea: the quality of the work. That __14__is perhaps best explained by a sign I once saw on the wall in someone’s office：“Don’t work harder.__15__．”There is a lot of sense in that idea.
If you can’t get more time, and few of us can, the only solution is to improve the quality of the work. That means thinking of ways to get more out of __16__time than we might otherwise get. That should lead us to an analysis of our work habits. Since “work” for students usually means“homework”， the expression “work habits” should be read as “__17__ habits”．
Then, as a smart student, you will __18__those skills that you use in study，__19__reading and writing. If you learn to read better and write better, there are big benefits that __20__in all your studies.
