#2 I Look Through My E-Mails And Dash Off Quick Replies I get a ton of (a very large number of) e-mails, so one of the first things I do is look through my messages. To look through means to look at a number of things quickly.
I also dash off replies to any messages that need quick responses – the phrasal verb dash off means to write (and usually send) something fast.
我每天都会收到很多很多邮件,所以我每天第一件事就是快速浏览所有的邮件。Look through在这里的意思是很快速的看很多东西。
我也会快速回复那些需要回复的邮件,短语里的动词dash off在这里指的是快速的发送或者写。

为了确保工作效率,我们不得不快速浏览完(look through)所有的邮件,并且快速回复(dash off)掉重要的邮件。
