• 18．Avoiding Procrastination--A Lesson You Shouldn't Put Off
      You sit down to write a report for school，but decide to scroll your phone first.Soon，it's evening and you still haven't started that report.You've been having procrastination.It is not simple laziness.It's the habit of avoiding urgent tasks despite negative consequences.
      When you're facing a task，one part of your mind is rational（理性的） and says， "Let's do it." Another part is irrational.It says， "Wouldn't a quick video game be fun？" That part seeks instant satisfaction，while the rational part knows you should do your work.Being procrastinating may relieve pressure in the moment，but it is a force that constantly works against us，in our studies and our personal lives.It often stops us from reaching our potential and students who routinely procrastinate tend to get lower grades.In general，habitual procrastinators have to face high physical costs and the increase of stress and worry.It is something we all need to think about——and think about today，not tomorrow.So how do we beat it？
      First，we must understand the emotions behind procrastination.Studies have shown that people are more likely to procrastinate when they feel negative emotions，such as fear of failure or fright about doing boring tasks，toward things that need to be completed.It's therefore important to ignore your mood，and just dive in and take the first step.For example，if you are writing a report，start by simply putting your name at the top of page one.Then，focus on taking one step at a time until you reach the finish line.When you're done，reward yourself——maybe by doing something fun that was distracting（使分神） you before.
      If you do put things off，make sure to forgive yourself，since guilt makes the urge to procrastinate stronger.Beating procrastination，though，will help you in all aspects of your life，from finishing tasks at school to achieving personal goals.The time to start is now!
  （1）According to this passage，what's procrastination？

  
  （2）What are the negative effects of procrastination？

  
  （3）Please decide which part is false in the following statement，then underline it and explain why.
  • Procrastination is more likely to appear when we have negative emotions，so we should reward ourselves first to delight us.

  
  （4）In addition to the tips mentioned in the passage，what other beneficial strategies can you offer to procrastinators？ （In about 40 words）
