1.Many people catch a cold in spring or fall.It makes us wonder if scientists can send a man to the moon,why can't they find a cure for the common cold?The answer is easy.There are actually hundreds of kinds of cold viruses(病毒) out there.You never know which one you will get,so there isn't a cure for each one.When a virus enters your body,your body works hard to get rid of it.Blood rushes to your nose and causes a block in it.You feel terrible because you can't breathe well,but your body is actually eating the virus.Your temperature goes up and you get a fever,but the heat of your body is killing the virus.You also have a runny nose to stop the virus from getting into your cells.You may feel miserable,but actually your wonderful body is doing everything it can to kill the cold.
Different people have different cures for colds.In the United States and some other countries,for example,people might eat chicken soup to make themselves feel better.Some people take hot baths and drink warm liquids.Other people take medicine to stop various symptoms (症状) of colds.
There is one interesting thing to note:some scientists say taking medicines when you have a cold is actually bad for you.The virus stays in you longer because your body doesn't have a way to fight it and kill it.Bodies can do an amazing job on their own.There is a joke,however,on taking medicine when you have a cold.It goes like this:It takes about one week to get over a cold if you don't take medicine,but it takes only seven days to get over a cold if you take medicine.

I had lunch last week with a high-ranking business woman for a fortune 500company.I asked her what tips she would give to someone early in their career.Without hesitation she jumped right into four keys to her professional climb:
Know your business.Never get satisfaction with your industry or your position.In most cases,the knowledge you hold now is not good enough to stand the test of time.Thus,you must keep working to stay on top of what's new and what's coming down the pipeline.This is what really counts,especially early in a professional career,as many entry level associates are content to be gainfully employed.
Pick careers with care.Again,early in your career it is easy to run after the job that offers the most money.In the case of a life-long career money cannot answer all things.If you are going to be an entrepreneur then you'll probably start with a budget of zero.Yet,if you have the discipline,working for yourself could be the best choice you've ever made.
If you are going to work for a company you have to do your homework.If you find a company that consists with your values and produces a product that you 100% believe in,then you'll have an easy time giving that organization your all.
Be personable.If everyone hates to be around you at the office,it's time to check your attitude.We've all heard at least one anecdote about a great thinker with great skills who drove coworkers crazy.Someway,somehow many of the brightest and best lack the"people skills"to advance beyond an entry-level position.
In short,you must have the interpersonal insight to interact with internal and external contacts.If not,you may find that you are unimportant once someone with soft-skills joins the organization.Why?People have to buy you before they ever buy the product you're selling.
Be willing to move.This is where I got puzzled.She shared how she lived in seven states still working for the same organization.
Much is made of moving in today's attempts to climb the corporate ladder.As more and more companies extend to have a global reach,it is easy to understand why new opportunities birth in various locations.
Whatever the path,outline in your heart what destination you hope to reach and this will be a key indicator as to which journey will be greatest for you.

★Be aware of the fact that some conflicts are unavoidable at work.On numerous occasions,conflict and disagreement are likely to happen.But when a conflict happens it's not the end of the world.On the contrary,it can be the beginning of an interesting learning process.Conflicts mean that people care enough to disagree strongly.The trick is not to allow the conflict to go on forever.
★Deal with conflicts sooner rather than later.Solve a conflict when it starts,as it only gets worse with time going by.Conflicts at work arise not from something that was said,but from something that wasn't said!Everyone's waiting for the other to admit he's wrong and gets more unpleasant after the conflict has lasted a while.It's essential to interrupt the"waiting game"before it gets to that point.
★Ask nicely.If somebody has done something that made you angry,or if you don't understand their viewpoint or actions,simply asking nicely about it can make a world of difference.Never assume that people do what they do to annoy or hurt you.Sometimes there's a good reason why that person does what he or she does,and a potential conflict disappear right there.Do remember to make an inquiry,not an accusation of any sort.
★Appreciate.Praise the other part in the conflict.Tell them why it's worth it to you to solve the conflict.This can be difficult as few people find it easy to praise and appreciate a person they disagree strongly with,but it's a great way to move forward.
