2 . We often see that some of our friends always appear relaxed.     1     This is because they are better organized than us. If we want to lead a well-organized life, some habits have to be cultivated purposefully.

A place for everything and everything in its place

When we are lazy or in a hurry, we keep our things in the wrong place.    2     To lead an organized life, we should make sure to put things back in their proper place.

Avoid multitasking

When we are trying to do more than one thing at a time, we cannot concentrate on our work properly, resulting in poor performance.    3     For example, while doing our homework, if we keep our mobile phone within our reach and keep on replying to friends’ messages, our quality of work will suffer.

Plan ahead

Planning ahead is an important characteristic of an organized personality. But we should be realistic in our plans.    4     Practically, planning our daily, weekly and even monthly goals and trying our best to achieve them will make life more organized and tasks more manageable for us.

Value your time

Another key to leading a well-organized life is to manage your time in the most fruitful way. Giving in to temptation usually results in wasted hours which we regret later on. The famous columnist Harvey MacKay said, ”Time is free, but it’s priceless.    5    “

A．Then we have to waste lots of precious time and energy searching for them.

B．They are not nervous during examinations and seem to enjoy life better than us.

C．Once you’ve lost it, you can never get it back.

D．The fewer things we have, the easier it will be to manage them.

E．They follow some rules which lead to a more successful life.

F．There are times when we find a big part of what we aimed to do is left undone.

G．We should be clear about what has to be done and what is just wasting time.

Every year on March 14, students around the world put down their textbooks and pick up slices of pie to celebrate a unique and delicious holiday-Pi(π) Day.

Thinking of the first 3 digits (数位) of pi(3.14), you can quickly work out     1     March 14 was chosen as the date for Pi Day. In 2019, UNESCO set the day as the International Day of Mathematics to celebrate the beauty of math and stress the essential role it plays in all aspects of our lives.

Pi Day was first celebrated in the US in 1988 at San Francisco’s Exploratorium, a museum of science and technology which     2     (encourage) visitors to be hands-on. During the first celebration, Exploratorium’s employees marched around one of the circular     3     (space) of the museum because pi is the rate of a circle’s circumference (周长) to its diameter.

As a celebration of the mathematical constant pi, Pi Day in China is to honor Zu Chongzhi (429-500 AD), a Chinese mathematician who calculated pi as being     4     3.1415926 and 3.1415927, a record in accuracy     5     was not surpassed for over 800 years.

Pi Day is celebrated in     6     (variety) ways across the world. In the US, schools usually hold activities related to pie, such as pie-eating contests or     7     (simple) throwing pies toward each other. “In Germany, the celebration of Pi Day takes on a cultural twist,” said a 15-year-old German girl. Schools inspire students     8     (express) their artistic side through pi-related art displays. These range from pi-inspired paintings to mathematical sculptures, training creativity within the field of mathematics. She even built a 3-dimensional cityscape with Lego for Pi Day,     9     (use) different colored blocks to represent each digit of pi.

So, this year’s Pi Day was no different. Pies     10     (eat) up and numbers rolled as students across the globe came together yet again to honor the charm of pi and math as a whole.
