Read the following passage. Fill in the numbered by using the information from the passage.

Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.

Learning to improve your focus is difficult, because you are talking long hours a day. However, if you break down your day into manageable time sections, it would be much easier to learn to improve your focus.

Focus, or concentration, is a skill that can be taught, so there are some exercises you can do to improve your focus.

Start with easy exercises like staring a picture on the wall for a few minutes without moving or talking. Once you learn how to block out your surroundings, your focus will improve.

Other mind exercises are internalizing (内化). This is when you imagine yourself in a desired situation, and then you work around your imagination. Actors and singers do this to block all distractions.

If this sounds a little strange, you could try making lists? List the things you need to accomplish for the morning, for the afternoon, and finally for the evening. For instance, if you have a dinner that evening, don’t arrange everything in the afternoon, and give yourself some time to relax before the guests arrive.

Another way to improve your focus is to take breaks. During your breaks, you should allow yourselves a drink or 30 minutes on TV. If you are having coffee breaks in your office, use this time wisely. Don’t spend it with your co-worker talking about problems. Your breaks should be as quiet as possible.

The reason why you lose focus so easily is that you have too much on your minds. Of course, it could also be because you are bored with nothing to do all day. A good balance between a too relaxed brain and an overly active brain is a desirable situation. Improving your focus also mean knowing what you can do and being confident about doing it well.
