    When we think of leadership, we often think of strength and power. But what are these really, and how do they operate?

    Leadership today is not about forcing others to do things. If this is even possible, it is short-term, and tends to backfire. If you order someone to do something against their will, they may do it because they feel they must, but the anger they feel will do more harm in the long-term, They will also experience fear.

    Fear causes the thinking brain to shut down, making the person unable to function at his or her best. If they associate you with this emotion of fear. They will become less functional around you, and you will have succeeded in not only shooting yourself in the foot, but possibly making a very good employee or partner unable to perform effectively. Fear has no place in leadership.

    The way we influence people in a lasting way is by our own character, and our understanding and use of emotion. We can order someone to do something, which may be part of the work day; or we can employ them at the emotional level, so they became fully devoted to the projects and provide some of their own motivation (积极性). Today’s work place is all about relationships.

    Anyone works harder in a positive environment in which they are recognized and valued as a human being as well as a worker. Everyone produces just a bit more for someone they like. Leaders understand the way things work. They know the pay check is not the single most motivating factor (因素) in the work life of most people.

    The true strength of leadership is an inner strength that comes from the confidence of emotional intelligence―knowing your own emotions, and how to handle them, and those of others. Developing your emotional intelligence is the single best thing you can do if you want to develop your relationships with people around you, which is the key to the leadership skills.

    1.An employee may have a feeling of fear in the work place when ________.

    A. he is forced to do thing

    B. he cannot work at his best

    C. he feels his brain shut down

    D. he thinks of his work as too heavy

    A. People tend to associate leadership with fear.

    B. Working conditions affect people’s physical health.

    C. Good relationship is the key to business success.

    D. Smart people are more functional in the work place.

    3.To positively influence employees a leader should first of all ________.

    A. provide better suggestions

    B. develop his own personality

    C. give his employees a pay rise

    D. hide his own emotion of fear

    4.Good leadership is mainly seen in a leader’s ability to ________.

    A. provide a good working environment

    B. help raise employee’s living standards

    D. deal wisely with employees’ emotions

    When something goes wrong，it can be very satisfying to say，”Well, it’s so-and-so’s fault.” or “I know I’m late，but it’s not my fault；the car broke down.”It is probably not your fault，but once you form the habit of blaming somebody or something else for a bad situation，you are a loser. You have no power and could do nothing that helps change the situation. However, you can have great power over what happens to you if you stop focusing on whom to blame and start focusing on how to remedy the situation. This is the winner’s key to success.

    Winners are great at overcoming problems. For example, if you were late because your car broke down, maybe you need to have your car examined more regularly. Or, you might start to carry along with you the useful phone numbers, so you could call for help when in need. For another example, if your colleague causes you problems on the job for lack of responsibility or ability, find ways of dealing with his irresponsibility or inability rather than simply blame the person. Ask to work with a different person, or don’t rely on this person. You should accept that the person is not reliable and find creative ways to work successfully regardless of how your colleague fails to do his job well.

    This is what being a winner is all about—creatively using your skills and talents so that you are successful no matter what happens. Winners don’t have fewer problems in their lives; they have just as many difficult situations to face as anybody else. They are just better at seeing those problems as challenges and opportunities to develop their own talents. So, stop focusing on “whose fault it is.” Once you are confident about your power over bad situations, problems are just stepping stone for success.

    1.According to the passage, winners .

    A. blame themselves rather that others

    B. meet with fewer difficulties in their lives

    C. have responsible and able colleagues

    D. deal with problems rather than blame others

    2.The underlined word remedy in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to .

    A. improve B. accept C. avoid D. consider

    3.When your colleague brings about a problem, you should .

    A. blame him for his lack of responsibility

    B. find a better way to handle the problem

    C. tell him to find the cause of the problem

    D. ask a more able colleague for help

    4.When problems occur, winners take them as

    A. excuses for their failures

    B. barriers to greater power

    C. chances for self-development

    D. challenges to their colleagues

    Howling is a behavior commonly observed among a wolf pack. As pack animals, wolves work together to hunt and rely on howling as an important means of communication among each other. There are different explanations of a wolf’s howl and it appears that there may be more to discover.

    One theory is that wolves howl to bond better together. It’s almost as if howling together helps the pack stay together. Perhaps it’s something similar to people feeling a sense of involvement with each other when singing a song together. But this theory may be wrong, explains Fred H. Harrington, a professor who studies wolf behavior.

    Indeed, there have been times when wolves have been seen one moment howling in a chorus, and the next, quarreling among each other. It appears that usually the lowest-ranking members of the pack may actually be “punished” for joining in the chorus at times. So is howling a way to strengthen a social bond or just a way to reconfirm (重新确认) status among its members? —Why do wolves howl for sure?

    What is clear, however, is that howling is often used among packmates to locate each other. Hunting grounds are distant and it happens that wolves may separate from one another at times. When this happens, howling appears to be an excellent means of gathering.

    Howling, interestingly, is a contagious behavior. When one wolf starts to howl, very likely others will follow. This is often seen to happen in the morning, as if wolves were doing some sort of “roll call” where wolves all howl together to report their presence.

    1. What is the possible similarity between wolves’ howling together and human’s singing in chorus?

    A. The act of calling each other.

    B. The sense of accomplishment.

    C. The act of hunting for something.

    D. The sense of belonging to a group.

    2. Why does Harrington think the “social bond” theory may be wrong?

    A. Wolves tend to protect their hunting grounds.

    B. Wolves separate from each other after howling.

    C. Wolves sometimes have quarrels after howling together.

    D. Wolves of low rank are encouraged to join in the chorus.

    3.Researchers are sure that wolves often howl to______.

    A.show their ranks

    B. find their companions

    C. report the missing ones

    D. express their loneliness

    4.The underlined sentence in the last paragraph probably means_______.

    A. howling is a signal for hunting

    B. howling is a way of communication

    C. howling often happens in the morning

    D. howling spreads from one to another

    Dear Anne,

    I like your column very much. I met a girl four years ago at a gym. She was the one who originally approached me and we became good friends. Then one day, she made me really angry, so angry that I just left and we never saw each other again.

    Looking back, I really regret ending things that way. It was a cowardly act on my part, but I had a terrible temper at that time and let the smallest thing get to me. Recently, I’ve started thinking about her again and I looked up her e-mail address. I thought about writing to say “Hi” and apologize for what I did but I’m not sure. She could still be angry with me, or maybe she has forgotten me. I feel very lonely and I want to see her again. What should I do?

    Tom

    Dear Tom,

    She may still be angry with you, and she may have forgotten the friendship between you, but that doesn’t mean she doesn’t deserve an apology. Tom, how many of us have wished for the day that someone who treated us badly saw the light and finally owned up? But we rarely get that kind of expected result. So sure, e-mail her and say “Hi”.

    Tell her you have been thinking about her and just want to apologize for getting angry and being a coward by walking out on her. But you should remember if she thinks you’re apologizing just because you are lonely, she might dismiss your sincerity. Therefore, don’t mention that. If she wants to see you again, she’ll make sure that happens.

    Even if she doesn’t want to be your friend, I can assure you, she’ll appreciate the gesture. And it might make you think twice next time you get angry.

    Anne

    1.In the letter, Anne is probably ___________.

    A. Tom’s friend B. Tom’s teacher

    C. a woman reporter D. a columnist

    2.What is troubling Tom？

    A. He can’t get in touch with his former friend.

    B. He regrets letting his former friend leave him.

    C. He doesn’t know whether to apologize to his former friend.

    D. He is uncertain whether his former friend can forgive him.

    3.Which of the following is what Anne advises Tom to do?

    A. Tell her that he expects to see her again.

    B. Express his sincere apology to her.

    C. Tell her that he is very lonely.

    D. Beg her to give him another chance.

    4.Anne wants to tell Tom that ________.

    A. an apology is better late than never

    B. he should think twice before he gets angry

    C. it’s no use crying over spilt milk

    D. he should answer for his wrong doings
