　　2015年职称英语综合类补全短文训练题(3)

　　Big Rocks

　　One day,an expert in time management was speaking to a group of students and,to drive home a point,used an illustration those students will never forget.

　　As he stood in front of the group of overachievers he said,"OK,time for a quiz."He pulled out a one-gallon,wide-mouth jar and set it on the table in front of him.(46)Then he 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 this jar full?"

　　(47)The time management expert replied,"Really?"He reached under the table and pulled out a bucket of gravel.He dumped some gravel in and shook the jar,causing pieces of gravel to work themselves down into the spaces between the big rocks.He then asked the group once more,"Is this jar full?"

　　By this time the class was on to him."Probably not，"one of them answered."Good!"he replied.(48)He started dumping the sand in the jar and it went into all of the spaces left between the rocks and the gravel.Once more he asked the question,"Is this jar full?"

　　"No!"the class shouted.(49)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 eager student raised his hand 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 it!"

　　(50)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?Time with your loved ones,your education,your dreams,a worthy cause,or teaching others?Remember to put these big rocks in first or you'll never get them in at all."

　　A.He reached under the table and brought out a bucket of sand

　　B."No,the speaker replied,"that's not the point

　　C.Everyone in the class yelled,"Yes."

　　D.Once again he said,"Good."

　　E.He figured out that where the priorities lie

　　F.He also produced about a dozen fist-sized rocks
