Why Learning Is A New Procrastination


  1. The tremendous world of online courses, blogs, social media, free eBooks, podcasts, and
  2. webinars provides the best ever opportunity to broaden your knowledge in almost every sphere
  3. you can imagine. Thanks to technological advancement and the instant access to the internet,
  4. everyone can now study from home. It seems like it would be foolishly not to seize this
  5. opportunity and improve your skills and knowledge. Moreover, you are kind of forced to do so
  6. since the contemporary world has raised the bar higher than ever before. It literally invited you
  7. to gather the pace and ___________ even more.
  8. It is not surprising that, ultimately, you try to be everywhere and do everything. No doubt,
  9. you do your best to constantly gather tiny bits of information from as many channels as
  10. possible, because you are afraid that you will fall behind if you stop. After all, you enter a
  11. learning crunch mode. You do not afford to miss anything and try to read every book you could
  12. get your hands on. You listen to every single podcast your smartphone could download and take
  13. every online course your paycheck would allow to take.
  14. All in all, you learn. As much as possible. As intense as you manage to. You learn how to
  15. write and publish a new book. You learn how to launch a successful blog. You learn how to hit
  16. your goal on Kickstarter. You learn how to build the next “unicorn”. You learn how to land a job
  17. of your dream. You learn how to successfully sell thousands of items on Amazon. You learn how
  18. to make millions of dollars in passive income.
  19. However, the problem is that you do everything except taking action. All those activities do
  20. not take you closer to the things you want to accomplish. Better knowledge does not make you
  21. more influential, powerful, and successful unless you apply it. The key secret to success is not
  22. ________ expertise, but the ability to use it.
  23. Knowledge is worthless unless it is applied. Needless to say that studying is crucial.
  24. However, the thing is that it should take the entirely new form now. You should stop learning
  25. from someone else’s experiences, knowledge, failures, and wins and start learning from your
  26. own mistakes, adventures, ___________, and bold actions.
  27. Learning has become a major trend of the 21st century. Sadly, it has also become a new
  28. form of procrastination. You consciously postpone the first step justifying this by your eagerness
  29. to broaden the knowledge and learn new things. You put the start date off justifying this by
  30. your desire to pick up new skills that would help you succeed faster. You procrastinate over
  31. chasing your own aspirations because doing the things on your own and creating your own story
  32. of success is far more complicated than reading about someone else’s one. Meanwhile, no one
  33. would really reproach you for wasting your time. Also, you feel comfortable about staying within
  34. this zone of ease and convenience forever.
  35. However, the point is that you already have and know everything you need to start off. In
  36. fact, there is nothing more you need to learn in order to take the first step. Embrace the truth.
  37. No matter how good your theoretical knowledge is, you will face a lot of obstacles while
  38. applying it. You will have to deal with issues that have never been described or covered in any
  39. book. You will have to look for the solutions and make the spontaneous decisions that no one
  40. probably has ever thought of. You will have to design your own road to success.
  41. Transform your learning process from the continuous the procrastination into an
  42. unstoppable process of absorbing invaluable expertise based on your own experience. It might
  43. seem counterintuitive, but the old-fashioned way of learning is what holds you back. This is
  44. what makes your triumphs suck.
  45. Constant learning, evaluating of ideas, thinking, and visualizing your journey towards your
  46. major aspirations will not take you far from the place you are now. Actions will. You can sit and
  47. research, and research, and research, while someone else is already reaping huge rewards for
  48. his or her fruitful and hard work. Stop learning now. Become bold enough to take the first step
  49. and start learning from your own experience.

Consider the following extract from the text and the sentences that follow:


“You will have to deal with issues that have never been described or covered in any book. You will have to look for the solutions and make the spontaneous decisions that no one probably has ever thought of.”


I. ‘have never been described’ is in the past perfect.

II. ‘will have to look for’ is in the future perfect.

III. ‘has ever thought of’ is in the passive voice.


Which ones are INCORRECT?

Text 2:

What makes a school good? (Part II)

Another reason the schools may be so successful is the teachers. Teachers in Finland are seen as very important. They are well respected and the field of education is considered to be a science, with its own methodology, theory and principles. Every teacher studies for five years before they can teach. This is in contrast with the status of education in many other countries. Perhaps this explains why it's actually rather difficult to get a job as a teacher in Finland, as well as the reason that it's such a popular job.

In order to get students' opinions about what makes a school 'good', I visited my local school playground to do a little informal research. The thirteen-year-olds I spoke to were interested to hear about the Finnish schools. I asked them if they thought British schools were too strict and whether they thought more students would go to university if things were changed. Fay, one of the best students in her year, said she didn't think British students would benefit from a school that was too easy-going. She felt her teachers weren't strict enough, and that was why few students in her school went on to higher education.

So it seems that the Finnish education system has come up with a 'formula' that works successfully in that country. Their example can serve as a model for other countries, but each country will have to work hard to put together an education system that will meet the needs of its people.

Taken from: Chapman, Joanne. Laser B1 +. Teacher's book. Macmillan, 2008.
“It seems that the Finnish education system has come up with a formula.” (seventh paragraph).

Tex-Mex Cuisine
Tex-Mex is a well-known cuisine in the United States, although many people are not certain what it actually is. One fact that everyone agrees on is that it is a style of cooking from the southern state of Texas. It combines Texan ingredients with Mexican recipes, because the state has a large population from south of the border. The combination makes a tasty, exciting type of home cooking that is popular all over the state.
One of the most popular dishes is the enchilada. It is a type of corn tortilla which contains chicken or melted cheese, with plenty of onions. There are usually some beans or rice with this dish. Some Tex-Mex restaurants serve enchiladas with three sauces in red, white, and green, the colors of the Mexican flag.
Along with enchiladas, which are soft, there are also tacos. These are hard, crispy pieces of corn which are fried in oil. Cooks then stuff them with beef in a rich tomato sauce, as well as onions and cheese. As with many Tex-Mex dishes, there aren’t any rules for eating them, except that it is best to use your hands. They are often messy to eat because they are full of sauce and cheese. You can put almost anything in them, which is why this versatile Mexican dish is now popular all over the US.

TEXT 1: How brightly the moon glows is a mystery, but maybe not for long.


    “The lunar dark side may be the moon’s more mysterious face, but there’s something pretty basic scientists still don’t know about the bright side — namely, just how bright it is.

    Current estimates of the moon’s brightness at any given time and vantage point are saddled with at least 5 percent uncertainty. That’s because those estimates are based on measurements from ground-based telescopes that gaze at the moon through the haze of Earth’s atmosphere.

    Now, scientists have sent a telescope beyond the clouds on a high-altitude airplane in hopes of gauging the moon’s glow within about 1 percent or less uncertainty, the National Institute of Standards and Technology reports in a Nov. 19 news release.

    Knowing the exact brightness of Earth’s celestial night-light could increase the reliability of data from Earth-observing satellites that use the moon’s steady glow to check that their sensors are working properly. Those satellites keep tabs on things like weather, crop health and dangerous algal blooms.”
