问题     As a startup founder, my daily tasks include everything from long-term strategic planning to approving team outings and company culture initiatives. Day after day, things inevitably come up that need to get handled ASAP. But I’ve also learned that if you don’t have a strategy for making time for those bigger ambitions and your truly lofty goals, they’ll simply never get done. And that means you won’t make the progress that’s really going to move your business forward.
    1. FIND YOUR MOST PRODUCTIVE TIME
    Face it: you aren’t cranking out work at absolute peak productivity for the entice day. Instead, there are likely certain times when you’re at your most focused and other times when your energy wanes. That’s normal. Maybe for you, it’s bright and early in the morning, before anyone else arrives in the office, when you do your best work. Whenever it is, identify that when you feel your most productive, and then reserve it on your calendar like you would any other important meeting. You need to protect this block of time from intrusion—it isn’t optional. That way you’re guaranteed to have a regular, designated period when you can at least get started on those bigger to dogs.
    2. CREATE PHYSICAL BARRIERS
    Nobody works in a vacuum. We all have to collaborate with others to some degree or another. And it’s the people we work closest with whom we tend to put first—we want to be readily available if they need our help. But there are times you need to tune out the distractions and focus if you’re going to get any meaningful work done.
    One of the most effective methods I’ve found is to put physical barriers between us. I’ll work from a conference room or even from home on occasion an order to get some literal space from people needing “just one quick thing.”
What can be inferred from paragraph 3? (          )

选项 A、You have to be readily available in the office.
B、People cannot work in a vacuum.
C、People in the office love helping others.
D、Sometimes we have to decline colleagues’ requests.

答案D

解析 细节题。本题宜采用排除法。题干问的是“根据第三段可以推出的是”,也就是说考生需要去推断作者谈论第三段的内容,一般在文段出现过的内容不属于推断出来。A和 B项虽然都能在原文中找到对应的内容,但是不属于推出来的,也不是作者要强调的重点。第三段的内容大致可分为两个部分,一开始作者说工作当中我们不可能独善其身(Nobody works in a vacuum),多多少少要和其他同事一起合作。所以我们更倾向于把同事 放在首位,但是(but)作者通过转折关联词引出了自己真正的观点,But there are times you need to tune out the distractions and focus if you’re going to get any meaningful work done,也就是说乐于助人是好事,但有的时候我们需要拒绝同事的要求,才能把精力放在更有意义的工作上面。所以答案选D。
