问题    According to the Wharton Center for Applied Research in the US, professionals (专业人员) spend an average of 23 hours a week in meetings. But they consider only 58% of that time worthwhile. It doesn’t have to be this way. Here is some advice for you to use meetings to advance your career, not eat up your productivity (工作效率):
   1)Know what you want. Know precisely why the meeting is being held and decide what you intend to accomplish. If you cannot write these two things down, the meeting should not take place.
   2) Figure out if a face-to-face meeting is necessary. Would a group email be sufficient? Or a couple of phone calls? These ways would probably be more efficient with colleagues you know. well.
   3) Pick the right times. If possible, avoid arranging meetings during your peak productive hours.
   4) Be prepared. If there are documents to be discussed, hand them out to participants the day before.
   5) Set aside a certain amount of time each week for meetings, and stick to it.
   The truth is most people want to leave. They are just suffering from what some experts call the "politeness disease".
选项 A、less than half of the meeting hours is wasted
B、more than half of the meeting hours is wasted
C、the average 23 hours a week is worth spending
D、the average 23 hours a week is not worth spending
答案 A
解析 题干意为“专业人员认为______。”从文章第一段“But they consider only 58% of that time worthwhile”可以推出：在每周23小时的会议中，有58%是有用的，42%是没用的，即少于一半的是被浪费的，故选A。
