Moreover, because they often put off their plans till “tomorrow”, they are less likely to achieve their goals and will give up their dreams and goals finally. As a result, we can say that procrastination is the enemy of a progressive lifestyle.Now that we know procrastination is something bad, why do some people not take immediate action? Well, there are some things that result in procrastination. Depending on someone else rather than doing by oneself is one of the things. Whenever you wait for something to happen before you act, you make it easier to delay your goals and dreams until “someday”. Another cause of procrastination is that people do not value each moment in their day. Actually, its surprising how much you can do if you just decide to do little things with the little time you have. Also those who often procrastinate can always find a good reason for something they refuse to do at once.If you are one of those who often delay, then its time for you to make a decision to act now because things happen only when we decide to act. Get down to doing something like losing weight, saving money or spending more time with family. Dont let these things continue to be a desire（欲望）for you to do “someday”, but make a decision to do it now.Once you have made your decision, write down the plan and take action immediately. Making plans can help you think carefully about how you are going to do what you need to do. After understanding how to do what you want to do, get doing with the plan. It doesnt matter how small the move you make is as the little things you do accumulate（累积）over time and move you to be closer to your goals. So, dont wait until tomorrow; instead, start now! Just make use of every moment you have to do something that is helpful in realizing your dreams and goals.Here is a challenge that will also move you to be closer to your dreams and goals if taken seriously. Make a list of ten things you have been putting off. It could be anything from getting a health examination, calling a friend or family member, to getting the car fixed and cleaning out the garbage, etc. And then try to develop the habit of doing them immediately!Stay away from procrastinationParagraph outlineSupporting detailsProblems with procrastinationl Procrastination can make one (1) to live life to the fullest.l Procrastination can (2) one from achieving his goals.l Some people dont make progress just because of procrastination.(3) why people procrastinatel People who delay doing things are usually not (4) because they always ask for help from others.l People dont realize that each (5) in a day is very valuable.l Procrastination also has something to do with making (6) .Ways to stop procrastinationMake a decision.If you want to do something, do it (7) and never just desire it.Plan and act.By making a plan, you (8) how to do what you need to do.Spend your time doing those (9) things.Make a list.List ten things you like to delay.Make it a(n) (10) to finish them on time.第五部分：根据课本内容填空：（共10空格，每空格1分，满分10分）Unlike the literary club “Poets of the Next Generation”, _1_ by an English teacher Mr.Owen, the radio club is _2_ by the students themselves.
