Explanation:

Question 1:

Open-ended time management lacks strict structure, which aligns with procrastination (delaying tasks without firm scheduling). Type A is urgent/competitive, Type B is relaxed but not procrastinatory, closure-driven focuses on finishing tasks.

Question 2:

Pushing out defeatist negative thoughts directly addresses the fear of failure causing procrastination. Overstudying (a) is counterproductive, negative self-talk (b) worsens anxiety, and distraction (c) avoids the root cause.

Question 3:

A daily plan is a structured goal-setting tool that organizes tasks and timelines. Mental lists are unreliable, telling a friend is accountability not organization, and phone alarms only remind of time, not full task organization.

Answer:

1. a. Open-ended
2. d. Push negative thoughts, such as "It's too late," out of your mind
3. c. Daily plan
