4、单选题：
Identify the topic sentence in the following paragraph. ( )
Time Management
(1) No matter how you slice it, there are only 24 hours in a day. (2) To be successful at university, students need to learn good time-management skills. (3) The first skill is not taking on more than you can handle. If you are a working part-time, have a family and are involved in a community organization, then taking a full course-load at university will be too much. Another time management skill is reasonably estimating the time required to perform each of the tasks at hand. For example, profoundly reading a chapter from a course text cannot be completed in between television programmes. Finally, actually doing what needs to be done seems obvious, but is a very difficult skill. You may find that cleaning out your wardrobe becomes vital when you are avoiding study. Procrastination is a time manager’s enemy. (4) By learning time management skills your university study will be successful and most importantly enjoyable.
