Its important that you develop effective strategies for managing your time to balance the conflicting demands of time for study,leisure,earning money and job-hunting. Time management skills are valuable in job-hunting and other aspects of life: from revising for examinations to working in a vacation job.
Sometimes it may seem that there isnt enough time to do everything you need to. This can lead to a build-up of stress. When revising for examinations or during your final year when you have to combine the pressures of study with finding time to apply for jobs,good management of your time can be particularly important. Once we have identified ways we can improve the management of our time,we can begin to adjust our routines and patterns of behavior to reduce any time-related stress in our lives.
What skills are required for effective time management? Some of these skills including setting clear goals,breaking your goals down into discreet(考慮周到的) steps,and reviewing your progress towards your goals are covered in Action Planning.
Other skills include prioritizing—focusing on urgent and important tasks rather than those that are not important or dont move you towards your goals; organizing your work schedule; making lists to remind you of what you need to do and persevering when things are not working out and avoiding delay.

閱讀下面短文,然后按照要求寫一篇150詞左右的英語短文。
Square dancing is a good way of keeping fit. But when many people dance to loud music in squares or parks, they create noise that people in the neighborhoods find it painful to bear. Group dancing has become controversial because of the noise pollution.
Media have reported some conflicts between people dancing and neighborhood residents. A man annoyed by the loud dancing music fired a shotgun into the air to scare away the dancers near his house. Some residents threw rubbish at people dancing in a square. Some students in Hebei Province organized a silent protest against people playing loud music by blocking the“stage” of the dancers in a square. The students said they needed a quiet atmosphere to study.
Moreover, the city of Guangzhou in Guangdong Province makes rules to regulate square dancing from next year by restricting the time, places and the use of loudspeakers.
However, senior citizenslove for square dancing reflects the lack of places for people to keep physical fitness and the few leisure activities they can join in. Compared with playing mahjong, watching TV, since elderly people want company, most of them readily join square dancing troupes to socialize as well as to get some exercise.
