Which we ought to have done; and we have done those things which we ought not to have done.” A man’s home is no longer his castle; it is no longer a place away from urgent tasks because the telephone breaches the walls with imperious demands. The momentary appeal of these tasks seems irresistible and important, and they devour our energy. But in the light of time’s perspective their deceptive prominence fades; with a sense of loss we recall the important tasks pushed aside. We realize we’ve become slaves to the “tyranny of the urgent.”

Example: Tyranny of the Urgent
Have you ever wished for a thirty-hour day ? Surely this extra time would relieve the tremendous pressure under which we live .Our lives leave a trail of unfinished tasks .Unanswered letters , unvisited
friends ,unwritten articles ,and unread books haunt quiet moments when we stop to evaluate .We desperately need relief.

We all know what it is to go full speed for long hours, totally involved in an important task; the resulting weariness is matched by a sense of achievement and joy. Not the hard work, but doubt and misgiving produce anxiety as we review a month or year and become oppressed by the pile of unfinished tasks. We sense demands have driven us onto a reef of frustration. We confess, quite apart from our sins, “we have left undone those things

1.3谋篇
• 谋篇有助于考生理清思路,合理安排作文结构和写作时间, 以避免出现漏洞,造成无可挽回的后果。 谋篇阶段要把想法组织成一个篇章规划。通常把列出的细 节进行归类,看看哪些材料放在第一段,哪些材料放在第 二段,哪些省去不用。有时作文会给出简单的提纲,此时 可以把他们扩展成完整的句子,这样既得到了完整的提纲, 同时又有了各个段落的主题句。另外,还要注意,因为时 间有限,所以草拟提纲时不必太正式,只要列出要点,理 清结构,自己能看懂就可以了。
