资料：Procrastination comes in many disguises. We might resolve to tackle a task, but find endless reasons to defer it. We might prioritize things we can readily tick off our to-do list- answering emails, say- while leaving the big, complex stuff untouched for another day. We can look and feel busy. while artfully avoiding the tanks that really matter. And when we look at those rolling, long untouched items at the bottom of our to-do list, we can"t help but feel a little disappointed in ourselves.
The problem is our brains are programmed to procrastinate. In general, we all tend to struggle with task that promise future upside in return for efforts we take now. That"s because it"s easier for our brains to process concrete rather than abstract things, and the immediate hassle is very tangible compared with those unknowable, uncertain future benefits. So the short-term effort easily dominates the long-term upside in our minds--an example of something that behavioral scientists call present bias.
How can you become less myopic about your elusive tasks? It"s all about rebalancing the cost benefit analysis: make the benefits of action feel bigger, and the costs of action feel smaller. The reward for doing a pestering task needs to feel larger than the immediate pain of tacking it.
To make the benefits of action feel bigger and more real:
Visualize how great it will be to get it done. Researchers have discovered that people are more likely to save for their future retirement if they"re shown digitally aged photographs of themselves. Why? Because it makes their future self feel more real-making the future benefits of saving also feel more weighty.

【主题句】第一段Procrastination comes in many disguises. We might resolve to tackle a task, but find endless reasons to defer it. We might prioritize things we can readily tick off our to-do list — answering emails, say — while leaving the big, complex stuff untouched for another day. We can look and feel busy, while artfully avoiding the tasks that really matter. And when we look at those rolling, long-untouched items at the bottom of our to-do list, we can’t help but feel a little disappointed in ourselves.（拖延症有很多伪装。我们也许会下决心去处理一项任务，但却发现了无穷无尽的拖延的理由。我们可能会优先考虑很容易解决的待办事项清单，比如回复邮件，然后把那些大而复杂的事情原封不动地留到另一天做。我们可能看起来并且感觉很忙，然而巧妙地避开那些真正重要的任务。当我们看到那些一大串、长时间未动的项目在我们的待办事项清单的底部时，我们禁不住会对自己感到有些失望。）
【解析】本题问“根据作者，哪一项不被看做是拖延症的表现？”。选项A意为“我们优先处理待办事项清单并及时完成任务”；选项B意为“我们优先考虑并且只做能轻松快速完成的事情”；选项C意为“我们看起来很忙，但避免了真正重要的任务”；选项D意为“我们发现无尽的理由推迟一项任务”。根据文章第1段的内容（主题句），可知B、C、D项原文都有提及，A项We prioritize the to-do list and finish the task in time（我们优先考虑待办事项并且及时完成任务）与题目相违背，所以是错的。而此题为选非题。
