Last year, a child was born at a hospital in the UK with her heart outside her body. Few babies survive this rare condition, and those who do must endure numerous operations and are likely to have complex needs. When her mother was interviewed, three weeks after her daughter's birth, she was asked if she was prepared for what might be a daunting (令人生畏的. task caring for her. She answered without hesitation that, as far as she was concerned, this would be a“privilege". Rarely has there been a better example of the power of attitude, one of our most powerful psychological tools. Our attitudes allow us to turn mistakes into opportunities, and loss into the chance for new beginnings. An attitude is a settled way of thinking, feeling and/ or behaving towards particular objects, people, events or ideologies. We use our attitudes to filter, interpret and react to the world around us. You weren't born with attitudes; rather they are all learned, and this happens in a number of ways. The most powerful influences occur during early childhood and include both what happened to you directly, and what those around you did and said in your presence. As you acquire a distinctive identity,your attitudes are further refined by the behavior of those with whom you identify- your family, those of your gender and culture, and the people you admire, even though you may not know them personally.Friendships and other important relationships become increasingly important, particularly during adolescence. About that same time and throughout adulthood, the information you receive, especially when ideas are repeated in association with goals and achievements you find attractive, also refines your attitudes. Many people assume that our attitudes are internally consistent, that is, the way you think and feel about someone or something predicts your behavior towards them. However, many studies have found that feelings and thoughts don't necessarily predict behavior. In general, your attitudes will be internally consistent only when the behavior is easy, and when those around you hold similar beliefs. That's why, for example, many say they believe in the benefits of recycling or exercise, but don't behave in line with their views, because it takes awareness, effort and courage to go beyond merely stating that you believe something is a good idea. One of the most effective ways to change an attitude is to start behaving as if you already feel and think the way you'd prefer to. Take some time to reflect on your attitudes, to think about what you believe and why. Is there anything you consider a burden rather than a privilege? If so, start behaving right now as if the latter is the case.1. What do we learn from the passage about attitude?A. It shapes our beliefs and ideologies.B. It improves our psychological well being.C. It determines how we respond to our immediate environment.D. It changes the way we think, feel and interact with one another.2. What can contribute to the refinement of one's attitude, according to the passage?A. Their idols' behaviors.C. Their contact with the opposite gender.B. Their educational level.D. Their interaction with different cultures.3. What do many studies find about people's feelings and thoughts?A. They may not suggest how a person is going to behave.B. They are in a way consistent with a person's mentality.C. They may not find expression in interpersonal relations.D. They are in line with a person's behavior no matter what.4. How come many people don't do what they believe is good?A. They can't afford the time.C. They are hypocritical.B. They have no idea how to.D. They lack willpower.5. What is proposed as a strategy to change attitude?A. Changing things that require one's immediate attention.B. Starting to act in a way that embodies one s aspirations.C. Adjusting one's behavior gradually over a period of time.D. Considering ways of reducing one's psychological burdens.

Expectations can be tricky and this is no different in the workplace! As I listen to some Baby Boomer managers relate their frustrations about working with Generation Y（Gen Y/millennials千禧一代） workers， their two main complaints center on their perceptions of the younger generation's work ethic and sense of entitlement． These managers express that Gen Y workers want the honors of the workplace without putting in the sacrifices to earn them． The Baby Boomer/Generation Y Conflict is a good title that I often use to describe this new millennium divide between Boomers and Gen Y workers． This conflict comes from different life experiences and generational expectations． Can Baby Boomers and Gen Y just get along？ The answer is yes! As managers understand and account for the generational differences， they can move workplace dynamics from frustration and conflict to productivity and mutual understanding． To do so， we have to first understand Boomers and Gen Y． Born between 1943 and 1960， Boomers， grew up in an environment of social unrest where challenging authority was the norm． As noted in Generations at Work significant events of the Boomer generation include the civil rights movement， the Vietnam War， the women liberation movement and the Cold War． Boomers reflect that time in many ways： they tend to think they can change the world and they want to fulfill their own individual goals and potential． They come to the workplace confident， prepared to work hard， and expecting to be rewarded for their efforts． Born between 1980 and 2000， Gen Y workers grew up in an environment of adult attention where monitoring， recognition， and support were the norm． Significant events of their generation include technology， protective parenting， school yard violence and multiculturalism． Gen Y workers reflect this time in many ways： they are the most technically talented generation and they are the most spoiled generation． Gen Y workers come to the workplace with confidence and a continuing expectation of recognition and support independent of results． With the understanding that Generation Y workers have significantly different life experiences and expectations， Boomer manager can adjust their own interaction style and move from frustration and conflict to mutual understanding and productivity． Gen Y workers are used to immediate feedback on how they are doing． It comes from their digital world where information is shared frequently and quickly． Give them ongoing feedback． Be sure to balance the feedback： tell them what they did well as well as how they can improve． Many Gen Y workers are used to multiple supportive adults in their lives who spoiled and praised them． They respond better to coaching that focuses on outcomes than a direct management style． Boomer managers sometimes make the assumption that Gen Y workers are rude or disrespectful of authority． More often， however， Gen Y workers do not understand normal standards of workplace behavior． For example， Gen Y workers often expect immediate responses from their bosses on whatever they communicate to them． This comes from their life experiences． They have had cell phones at a young age and are masters at communicating through text messages， social media， etc． Further， they are used to calling the adults in their lives and getting immediate attention． They bring these expectations to the workplace． Boomers are partly responsible for launching some work-and-life balance programs for Gen Y workers． These younger generations have seen the negative effects that work has produced on some Boomers and decided that they want some balance in their lives． Many do not want to work like what Boomers have done． Boomer managers can engage Gen Y workers by supporting workplace flexibility and work-and-life balance． For these younger generations， work-and-life balance is among their top working priorities． Expectations are hard to manage and different generations have different workplace expectations！Boomer and Gen Y conflict， however， does not have to continue． When Boomer managers understand these differences， they can both adapt their own interaction style and educate others to promote organizational productivity． These generations do not have to continue to collide in the workplace!（1）What can we infer from Paragraph 1？ ____ A．Gen Y workers always dismiss the honors as useless．B．Boomers complain about the job attitude held by Gen Y．C．Boomers tend to show little respect for Gen Y's entitlement．D．Gen Y workers don't care about Boomers' misunderstandings．（2）Paragraphs 3 and 4 are meant to explore ____ ．A．different attitudes towards accepted social norms．B．the reasons for the frustrations and conflicts at workC．the shared beliefs that united the two separate generationsD．the outcomes of different parenting on each generation（3）Which of the following could best describe the character of Boomers？ ____ A．Gentle but reserved．B．Stubborn and jealous．C．Strict but generous．D．Ambitious and confident．（4）What do Gen Y workers expect in the workplace？ ____ A． Continual appreciation and assistance unaffected by results．B． Good results as well as acknowledgement from bosses．C． Independent advice on how to gain wide recognition．D． Constant monitoring at work to boost their results．（5）How do Gen Y workers probably want feedback provided？ ____ A． Occasionally by post．B． Instantly and carefully weighed．C． Regularly by means of praise．D． Directly and casually informed．（6）Gen Y workers pay special attention to work-and-life balance because ____ ．A． They are accustomed to the comfort of modern lifeB． Their parents have been paying the same attention to it．C． They don't want to follow in the footsteps of Boomers．D． Many sacrifices for honors have been made in the workplace．

The Harry Potter series, written by J.K. Rowling, is perhaps the most popular set of novels of the modern era. With seven books and many successful films to its name, the series has gathered about 15 billion dollars in sales. How did the series become so popular? The reason can be broken down into several areas.The first book in the series was rejected 12 times before it was picked up by Bloomsbury—a small publisher in England. So receiving this contract was Rowling's first step to success. However, getting a book contract does not ensure the success of a book. The story was soon loved by children and adults alike. In light of this, Bloomsbury Publishing published a second version of the books with “adult” (less colorful and more boring) book covers. This made it easier for a full range of ages to enjoy the series.Another factor that worked like a charm was that the publisher and Rowling herself, through the books, conducted midnight releases, promotions, and pre-ordering more readers. Customers who feared that their local bookstore would run out of copies responded by pre-ordering over 700,000 copies before the July 8, 2000 release.What does the underlined word “releases” (Para. 3) mean?A. The activity that frees or expresses energy or emotion.B. The announcement about the book’s publishing information.C. The sales of books that is available only at midnight.

The increase in international business and in foreign investment has created a need for executives with knowledge of foreign languages and skills in cross-cultural communication. Americans, however, have not been well trained in either area and, consequently, have not enjoyed the same level of success in negotiation in an international arena as have their foreign counterparts. Negotiating is the process of communicating back and forth for the purpose of reaching an agreement. It involves persuasion and compromise, but in order to participate in either one, the negotiators must understand the ways in which people are persuaded and how compromise is reached within the culture of the negotiation. In many international business negotiations abroad, Americans are perceived as wealthy and impersonal. It often appears to the foreign negotiator that the American represents a large multi-million-dollar corporation that can afford to pay the price without bargaining further. The American negotiator’s role becomes that of an impersonal supplier of information and cash. In studies of American negotiators abroad, several traits have been identified that may serve to confirm this stereotypical perception, while undermining the negotiator’s position. Two traits in particular that cause cross-cultural misunderstanding are directness and impatience on the part of the American negotiator. Furthermore, American negotiators often insist on realizing short-term goals. Foreign negotiators, on the other hand, may value the relationship established between negotiators and may be willing to invest time in it for long-term benefits. In order to solidify the relationship, they may opt for indirect interactions without regard for the time involved in getting to know the other negotiator. Clearly, perceptions and differences in values affect the outcomes of negotiations and the success of negotiators. For Americans to play a more effective role in international business negotiations, they must put forth more effort to improve cross-cultural understanding. [共5题](1)What kind of manager is needed in present international business and foreign investment? [本题2分]A. The man who represents a large multi-million-dollar corporation. B. The man with knowledge of foreign languages and skills in cross-cultural communication. C. The man who is wealthy and impersonal. D. The man who can negotiate with his foreign counterparts.

question or statement.Hot pot is a traditional dish in China. It is believed to date back more than 1,000 years to the time of the Jin Dynasty. Hot pot's origins can be found in the dining practices of Mongolian horsemen who rode across the steppe and into northern China. Legend has it that the Mongols used their helmets as pots to simmer (炖) broth (汤底) over open fires, and cooked chunks of meat in the broth.Hot pot cooking seems to have spread to northern China during the Tang Dynasty. In the regional variations developed with different ingredients such as seafood. In the centuries that witnessed the growth of the Song Dynasty, hot pot moved — and changed — further south, with each successive region adapting it to their local ingredients and tastes.The ingredients in a hot pot vary a lot from region to region. Perhaps the most famous hot pot is the Chongqing or Sichuan hot pot. It features a dark red broth chock-full (塞满了的) of spices, chili peppers, and the uniquely mouth-numbing Sichuan peppers. In Beijing and elsewhere in the north, hot pot broth tends to be mild and, compared to its racy southern "cousins", a little light. In the northeast of China, a kind of local sauerkraut (酸菜) is used to add some tang (强烈的味道), making the broth a bit sour. People can choose a version of hot pot according to their taste.1 Hot pot is believed to date back more than 1,000 years to the time of _______.A. the Jin Dynasty B. the Tang DynastyC. the Song Dynasty D. the Yuan Dynasty
