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.

Instruction: Answer to questions 38 to 47 based on the text below. The Highlights throughout the text are cited in the questions.


Caribou


01 ____Large hoofed animals belonging to the deer family, caribou and reindeer are actually the

02 same species — Rangifer tarandus. There are differences between caribou and reindeer though.

03 Caribou are native to North America, whereas reindeer are native to northern Europe and Asia.

04 Alaska does have some reindeer, however, imported from Siberia in the late 19th and early 20th

05 centuries.

06 ____Some people use the term "reindeer" to refer to domesticated work animals, such as those

07 pulling Santa's sleigh, but there are both wild and domestic herds of reindeer. Caribou, on the

08 other hand, are wild-living and long-migrating. Indigenous groups herd reindeer and use them for

09 their meat. That's also likely why reindeer evolved to be stockier than caribou.

10 ____Caribou make one of the world's great large-animal migrations. As summer approaches,

11 they head north along well-trod annual routes. Some herds may travel more than 600 miles to

12 get to their summer grazing grounds. They'll spend the summer months feeding on the abundant

13 grasses and plants of the tundra. This is also when they give birth. When the first snows fall each

14 year, the caribou turn back south. Herds of female caribou, called cows, leave several weeks

15 before the males, which follow with yearling calves from the previous birthing season.

16 ____They are taller and lankier than reindeer, likely because they evolved to make these long

17 migrations. They are the only deer in which males and females both have antlers—though only

18 some females have them. Cows have one calf each year, which can stand after only a few minutes

19 and move on with its mother by the next day.

20 ____Caribou are classified as vulnerable to extinction, one step above endangered. Because

21 they're migratory, changes in the landscape, such as the appearance of new fences or other

22 human development on their migration routes, can be especially disruptive. Climate change is

23 also a threat. As the Arctic warms, they become more susceptible to diseases and parasites,

24 which could quickly spread through a herd.



(Available in: https://www.nationalgeographic.com/animals/mammals/facts/caribou – text adapted especially

for this test).

Analyse the statements below about “its” (l. 19):


I. It is a possessive pronoun and it represents “the calf’s”.

II. It could be spelled as “it’s” with no significant changes in meaning.

III. It is used instead of “his/her” because animals are usually considered neutral nouns, especially when it is not specified if it is a male or female one.


Which ones are correct?
