问题     It’s interesting that technology often works as a servant for us, yet frequently we become a servant to it. E - mail is an useful tool but many feel controlled by this new vehicle. The average businessperson is getting about 80 - e - mails per day and many feel that about 80% of the messages in their " In Box" are of little or no value.
    So, I have four suggestions to help you to become better at "Easing E - mail".
    1. Get off the lists? The best way to deal with a problem is to never have it. If you are receiving a lot of unwanted e - mails, ask to be removed from the various lists. This would include your inclusion in unwanted cc lists.
    2. "Unlisted address"? Just like getting an "unlisted" telephone number that you share only with those to whom you want to give direct access, you might want to get a separate e - mail address only for the important communications you wish to receive.
    3. Check it once or twice per day? Many I speak with are becoming chained to their email server, monitoring incoming email on a continuous basis. Maybe this is because e - mail creates its own sense of urgency, but most of the communications are not all that urgent. I respond to them a couple of times per day.
    4. Deal with it? As you open each e - mail do one of the following:
    a. If it requires a quick response, respond to it and delete it.
    b. If it requires a response but is not the best use of your time, try to find someone else to do it.
    c. If it is going to take any serious amount of time to respond, schedule it for action in your Day Planner and then download the message, save it, or print it out for future action.
    I personally receive approximately 250 e - mails per day and by practicing the suggestions above, I can handle that volume in about an hour, taking advantage of this fantastic tool but not being controlled by it to the distraction of more important tasks in my day.
To avoid being chained by the coming e - mails, what you can do is to______.

选项 A、respond urgent ones only
B、reply all of them at the same time
C、handle them a couple of times daily
D、keep replying e - mails all day long

答案C
