Leadership is the most significant word in todays competitive business environment because it directs the manager of a business to focus inward on their personal abilities and style.Experts on leadership will quickly point out that“how things get done”influences the success of the outcomes and indicates a right way and a wrong way to do things.When a noted leader on the art of management,Peter Drucker,coined the phrase“Management is doing things right;leadership is doing the right things,”he was seeking to clarify the distinctions he associates with the terms.

When Stephen Covey,founder and director of the Leadership Institute,explored leadership styles in the past decade,he focused on the habits of a great number of higllly effective individuals.His Seven Habits of Highly Effective People became a popular bestseller very quickly. His ideas forced a reexamination of the early leadership example,which centered on the feature that was found in the character ethic(道德)and the personality ethic.The former ethic suggested success was founded on modesty,loyalty,courage,patience,and so on. The personality ethic suggested it was one’s attitude,not behavior,that inspired success, and this ethic was founded on a belief of positive mental attitude.In contrast to each of these ideas,Covey advocates that leaders need to understand universal principles of effectiveness,and he highlights how vital it is for leaders to first personally manage themselves if they are to enjoy any hope of outstanding success in their work environments;To achieve a desired vision for your business,it is essential that you have a personal vision of where you are headed and what you value.Business leadership means that managers need to“put first things first,” which implies that before leading others,you need to be clear on your own values,abilities,and strengths and be seen as trustworthy.

1.What does Peter Drucker’s phrase infer?

A.Leaders should be good at making right decisions.

B.Leaders should be good at doing things right.

C.Leaders should be good at ignoring distinctions.

D.Leaders should be skilled in predicting future.

2.Under what condition are people likely to succeed,in terms of what the personality ethic suggests?

A.When people have little determination,they will be successful.

B.When people have good behaviour,they will gain success.

C.If people have positive mental attitude, they are likely to succeed.

D.If people have negative mental attitude,they are certain to succeed.

3.How Can leaders enjoy outstanding success in their work environments,according to Stephen Covey?

A.Firstly they have to think highly of themselves.

B.They are supposed to benefit themselves.

C.They can not adjust themselves.

D.First they must manage themselves.

4.What is the meaning ofthe underlined word “vision”?

A.Bright future. B.Good beginning.

C.Good scenery.D.Pretty background.

5.To be good leaders.what must managers Pay close attention to?

It was the end of my junior year, the weekend before prom (毕业舞会). I was riding with some friends, and a bottle was passed around the car. Everyone was taking swigs(一大口). When the bottle got to me, I thought:“What should I do?”I took a swig. It was the biggest mistake of my life. I had to drive home later that night.

I went back to my car, got in and drove off. At a stop sign I saw a policeman sitting in the parking lot across the street. His headlights were turned on, and I knew he was going to follow me. Then he flashed his lights at me. All I could think was: “Oh no, that swig!”

I pulled over and waited for him to come to my door. It felt like forever. “Can I see your license and registration, please, Miss?” I gave them to him. He took them and went back to his car for a while. When he returned, he asked if I had been drinking.

“No,” I said. He asked me to step out of my car.

“Walk heel to toe down the white line, please.” I passed the test. Next he had me stand on my left foot, lift my right foot and hold it for 30 seconds. I’m not the most coordinated (动作协调的) person and I can’t even walk and chew gum at the same time, so, needless to say, I didn’t pass. Then he asked me to take a breathalyzer test.

That was where I messed up. I told him I didn’t want to and didn’t understand why I had to. The officer asked me three more times, and I continued to refuse. He told me to turn around and place my hands behind my back. He arrested me right then and there.

The policeman drove me to a police station 20 minutes from my home. He called my parents and told them where I was.

I went to court two months after that, charged with refusing to obey an officer. I got a $700 (4,340 yuan) fine and 40 hours of community service. I’ll be on probation (缓刑) for a year, and I’ll have to take the driving test again. I lost my license for a whole year.

This was a huge learning experience for me. It opened my eyes to how easy it is to make a stupid decision. I want everyone reading this to know that it’s not right to drink and drive. It definitely isn’t worth losing your license over.

1.From the first paragraph, we can conclude that the author __________.

A. didn’t remember she had to drive home later when riding with her friends

B. wished she had refused to drink that night

C. felt just one mouthful would not affect her driving

D. lost her driving license on the way

2.Which of the following is TRUE according to the article?

A. The author was in jail for 40 hours and had to do community service.

B. The author thought her punishment shouldn’t be so serious.

C. The author was really sorry that she had made a serious mistake.

D. The author believed she would have avoided punishment if she had obeyed the policeman.

3.What is the main purpose of the article?

A. To warn people against driving after drinking.

B. To explain how policemen test drivers.

C. To show that severe punishment works.

D. To blame the author’s thoughtless friends.

Exhausted,covered in mud and desperately hungry,a team of Swedish athletes sat down for a meal as they prepared to take on a dangerous 20-mile trek through the Ecuadorian rainforest.

As they opened their canned meat,a tired Mikael Lindnord noticed a miserable stray dog staring at him out of the corner of his eye.

Feeling sorry for him,he fed the dog a meatball and thought nothing of it,but as the team stood up to continue their race the animal started to follow them—and he didn’t stop.
