Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
This strategy is called minitasking. It involves accomplishing the long-term goal one step at a time. Striving to complete the entire goal at one time often leads to procrastination because the task seems too large. Eliminating any undesirable elements of the goal requires clarification of the goal and elimination of unnecessary/undesirable elements during formulation. It is more effective to work toward goal attainment in an orderly, sequential fashion than to jump in at any random point.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Efficiency refers to getting things done as quickly as possible. Effectiveness involves setting priorities among the tasks that need to be done and doing them the best way possible. Scheduling refers to putting time aside to complete a task. Procrastination is to delay working on or completing a task.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
