34、nd of avoiding or delaying of work that needs to be done is called procrastination (拖沓). It has been said that up to 95% of people procrastinate at least sometimes, and about 20% of them do it too much. Although researchers do not agree on all the reasons behind procrastination, there is general agr

35、eement about some factors that can explain it.The first factor is how pleasant or unpleasant people find a task. Research shows that people put off tasks they find unpleasant. Many high school students delay cleaning their rooms or doing their homework. Someone who loves bicycles might not delay fix

36、ing a tire, while someone who does not may put it off.In addition to how people feel about the job at hand, the amount of confidence they have in their ability to do a task is also related to procrastination. For example, those who have low expectations of success are more likely to postpone startin

37、g a job. On the other hand, those who believe that they can perform well are more likely to take on challenging tasks rather than avoid them. However, it has been argued that too much confidence can also lead to procrastination: some people overestimate how easily they can do a particular task and s

38、tart too late.Another factor is whether or not people can use self-control. Those who have less self-control can easily be drawn away from their work. Interestingly, age is said to be associated with self-control. Research shows that the older people become, the less likely they are to delay doing t

39、heir work until the last minute.Lastly, there is a link between procrastination and how long people must wait before they see the reward for an effort. For example, studying hard in school might not give high school students any immediate rewards; what they learn might not seem useful to the present

40、. Sometimes, it is hard to see the benefit of making an effort when the reward is too far away. This can explain why many people do not start saving money for their old age when they are young.What are the roots of your procrastination? Because the behaviors described here are common to most people,

41、 you probably do not need to completely change your habits. If procrastination is a problem, the first step to reducing it is identifying the reasons behind it. It is only by understanding the roots of your problem that you can choose the appropriate method for yourself.32. The high school students
