    How to Become an Effective Leader

    The key to becoming an effective leader is not to focus on making other people follow, but on making yourself the kind of person they want to follow. 1._______ It takes time to become a trustworthy leader.

    As you prepare yourself to become a better leader, use the following guidelines to help you grow:

    Don’t be self-centered.

    The truly great leaders are not in leadership for personal gain. 2.________ Perhaps that is why Lawrence Bell remarked, “A man who cannot bother to do little things for others are unlikely to become a good leader.”

    3.________

    Rare is the effective leader who didn’t learn to become a good follower first. That is why a leadership institution such as the United States Military Academy teaches its officers to become effective followers first.

    Work with excellence.

    No one respects and follows mediocrity(平庸). Leaders who earn the right to lead give their all to what they do. They bring into play not only their skills and talents, but also great passion and hard work. 4._______

    Give your power away.

    What makes leadership so special is that you become a better leader by sharing whatever power you have, not by saving it all for yourself. 5.________ If you use your power to empower others, your leadership will extend far beyond your grasp.

    A. Become a good follower first.

    B. You are meant to be a river, not a pool.

    C. They lead in order to serve other people.

    D. Leaders help people to reach their potential.

    E. Leadership isn’t learned or earned in a moment.

    F. Leadership is influence, nothing more, nothing less.

    G. They perform on the highest level of which they are capable.

    Why does most of the world travel on the right side to day? Theories differ, but there's no doubt Napoleon was a major influence. The French have used the right since at least the late 18th century. Some say that before the French Revolution, noblemen drove their carriages on the left, forcing the peasants to the right. Regardless of the origin, Napoleon brought right-hand traffic to the nations he conquered, including Russia, Switzerland and Germany. Hitler, in turn, ordered right-hand traffic in Czechoslovakia and Austria in the 1930s. Nations that escaped right-hand control, like Great Britain, followed their left-hand tradition.

    The U.S. has not always been a nation of right-hand drivers; earlier in its history, carriage and horse traffic travelled on the left, as it did in England. But by the late 1700s, people driving large wagons pulled by several pairs of horses began promoting a shift (改变) to the right. A driver would sit on the rear (后面的) left horse in order to wave his whip (鞭子) with his right hand; to see opposite traffic clearly, they travelled on the right.

    One of the final moves to firmly standardize traffic directions in the U.S. occurred in the 20th century, when Henry Ford decided to mass-produce his cars with controls on the left (the reason was stated in a 1908 catalog: the convenience for passengers exiting directly onto the edge, especially if there is a lady to be considered). Once these rules were set, many countries eventually adjusted to the right-hand standard, including Canada in the 1920s, Sweden in 1967 and Burma in 1970. The U.K. and former colonies such as Australia and India are among the Western world's few remaining holdouts (坚持不变者). Several Asian nations, including Japan, use the left as well—though many places use both right-hand-drive and left-hand-drive cars.

    1.Why did people in Switzerland travel on the right?

    A. They had used the right-hand traffic since the 18th century.

    B. Rich people enjoyed driving their carriages on the right.

    C. Napoleon introduced the right-hand traffic to this country.

    D. Hitler ordered them to go against their left-hand tradition.

    2. Of all the countries below, the one that travels on the right is ______.

    A. Austria B. England

    C. Japan D. Australia

    3. Henry Ford produced cars with controls on the left ______.

    A. in order to change traffic directions in the U.S.

    B. so that passengers could get off conveniently

    C. because rules at that time weren't perfect.

    D. though many countries were strongly against that.

    4. According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?

    A. Before the French Revolution, all the French people used the right.

    B. People in Britain and the U.S. travel on the same side nowadays.

    C. The Burmese began to travel on the right in 1970.

    D. All the Asian nations use the left at present.

    I’d like to share with you my progresses on study in these three years. To be honest, I was not so good at my study when I came to high school, often feel tired out and at loss. Sometimes, I am even on the point of giving up. Therefore, my change happened when my teachers and my classmates as well as came to encourage me one day in Senior Two. It was their encouragement and my own thinking that resulted in my mchievements in study final.

    Still not a top student although I am now, I have found myself filled with greatly confidence to face any difficulty and challenge. There is no doubt that I am bound to fight with my dream to the end in the coming months！

    Camels are large animals living in dry areas. There are two species of camels; the Arabian camel with a single hump(驼背) from the dry desert areas of West Asia, and the Bactrian camel with two humps from Central and East Asia. Camels are over 7 feet tall and weigh over 1,600 pounds. They will live up to 40 to 50 years. Most camels are domesticated(驯化) and fed by people. Camels are plant-eaters．

    Camels are very strong animals with wide, padded feet. They have thick leathery pads on their knees and chest. Camels have nostrils(鼻孔) that can open and close, protecting them from the desert environment. Bushy eyebrows and two rows of long eyelashes protect their eyes from sand. Their mouth is extremely tough, allowing camels to eat thorny(带刺的) desert plants. Their widened feet help them move without sinking into the sand. Their thick coats reflect sunlight, and also protect them from the intense heat from desert sand. Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground.

    Camels can go without food and water for 3 to 4 days. They do not store water in their humps as is commonly believed．The humps are actually a container of fat. Camels are incredibly well-adapted to their environment. When conditions heat up, camels can increase their own body temperature, which prevents sweating and therefore water loss. They may not sweat at all during the day.

    Camels are sometimes called “ships of the desert” because people ride them around the hot, dry deserts of the world. However, the number of camels is becoming smaller for various reasons.

    1.According to the passage, camels usually live in ________.

    A. Asia B. Africa

    C. America D. Australia

    2.Paragraph 2 is mainly about ________.

    A. camels are useful animals

    B. camels are clever animals

    C. camels’ body structure and function

    D. camels’ characteristics and habits

    3.The reason why camels lose little water in deserts is that they ________.

    A. get water from green foods

    B. can adjust their temperature

    C. store enough water in the humps

    D. can manage without water

    4.What will the author probably talk about following the last paragraph?

    A. Ways to protect camels.

    B. Habitats of camels.

    C. Reasons for raising camels.

    D. Functions of camels.

    Edmund Halley was an English scientist who lived over 200 years ago. He studied the observations of comets (彗星) which other scientists had made. The orbit（轨道）of one particular comet was a very difficult mathematical problem. He could not figure it out. Neither could other scientists who dealt with such problems.

    However, Halley had a friend named Isaac Newton, who was a brilliant mathematician. Newton thought he had already worked out that problem, but he could not find the papers on which he had done it. He told Halley that the orbit of a comet had the shape of an ellipse(椭圆形).

    Now Halley set to work. He figured out(解决，计算出)the orbits of some of the comets that had been observed by scientists. He made a surprising discovery. The comets that had appeared in the years 1531, 1607, and 1682 all had the same orbit. Yet their appearance had been 75 to 76 years apart.

    This seemed very strange to Halley. Three different comets followed the same orbit. The more Halley thought about it, the more he thought that there had not been three different comets as people thought. He decided that they had simply seen the same comet three times. The comet had gone away and had come back again.

    It was an astonishing idea! Halley felt certain to make a prediction(预言)of what would happen in the future. He decided that this would appear in the year 1758. There were 53 years to go before Halley’s prediction could be tested. In 1758 the comet appeared in the sky. Halley did not see it, for he had died some years before. Ever since then that comet had been called Halley’s comet, in his honor.

    1.Edmund Halley figured out the orbit of ____.

    A. some different comets appearing several times

    B. the same comet appearing at different times

    C. three different comets appearing at the same time

    D. several comets appearing at the same time

    2.Halley made his discovery ____.

    A. by doing experiments

    B. by means of his own careful observation

    C. by using the working of other scientists

    D. by chance

    3.Halley made a surprising, but correct prediction in the year____.

    A. 1704 B. 1705 C. 1706 D. 1707

    4.This passage in general is about ____.

    A. Halley and other scientists B. the orbit of a comet

    C. Newton and Halley D. Halley and his discovery
