分析 本文主要讲述了作者跟随Jane一同去森林里参观黑猩猩的故事.作者认为这趟旅程是非常值得的.

解答 61.worthwhile 本题考查固定句式中的宾补的用法.make it+adj+to do.非常值得的,很值得的,使用worthwhile
62.behaviors 本题考查名词的数.该处表示通过研究了解了黑猩猩的行为与人们行为的形似性.各种行为,故使用复数:behaviors
63.observing  本题考查动词的固定用法:spend time (in) doing sth
64.had wanted 本题考查时态.since 与过去时间连用,主句应使用过去完成时,来表示事件发生在过去的过去.因此答案为:had wanted
 65.but  本题考查连词的使用.根据句意此处应表示转折,故使用but
66.with 本题考查固定短语搭配.在…的帮助之下:with the help of sb
6 7.argued 本题考查时态.联系上下文,此处应该是现在完成时态.因此动词用过去分词
68.entertainment 本题考查名词  下文中有一个连词or 后面跟一个名词advertisements,由此可知,or前面也该跟名词,且娱乐为不可数,不用复数形式
69.achievements 本题考查固定短语搭配.取得巨大的成功:make great achievements
 70.which 本题考查定语从句.该句中inspirs 为谓语,句子缺少主语.which在此处替代前面这个句子的内容

1.In all fields of life,and particularly within the commercial world,when managed effectively,competition can deliver a wealth of benefits.It can provide individuals with the motivation they need to work hard and achieve objectives.It can encourage effective teamwork as managers seek to use the different strong points of team members to secure the best team performance.It can contribute to greater commitment to quality as people seek to use this as a way to beat their competitors.Healthy competition can cause the development of creativity as individuals seek out all possible ways to get ahead of the crowd.It can also help managers to identify which individual makes progress under pressure and which is better suited to less stressful roles.
However,employers can often find it difficult to agree on the type of competition they want within their organization,the targets they'll use and the measurement techniques they'll apply.For example,it's common for businesses to give different sales teams clear targets with the lure(诱惑)of the highest bonuses for the top performers.While this will usually give rise to healthy competition,it can also mean that important long-term projects get pushed to one side as the team devotes all its energy to achieving the short-term target.So it's important that the goals and objectives which are set for teams are in line with wider business requirements.Additionally,in very competitive organizations,managers should get individuals to see the bigger picture and act in the best interest of their organization as a whole,rather than to follow the very narrow targets they have set as individuals or as a team.
Thus,employers have to be careful not to let competition have a ruinous effect on morale (士气) at any level.Equally,businesses should introduce clear processes and guidelines that prevent individuals from different teams quarrelling about the allocation of sales income if parties from different teams have worked together to win a contract(合同).Infighting such as this is always damaging.Moreover,managers must also be alert to the risk of creating conditions where bullying(欺凌) can be used.
To encourage healthy competition in an organization,you must introduce very clear policies regarding competition and ensure the information is communicated effectively.Individuals must know what behavior is acceptable within a competitive environment,and what behavior is considered not acceptable.Also,you should ensure that individuals are measured against all desirable targets but not one simple goal.Ensure that you have senior managers who are able to take a"helicopter view"and judge fairly between teams for the greater good when arguments do unavoidably arise.

(71)Benefitsof healthy competition•Competition can keep individuals (72)motivated to work hard towards goals.
•With each member's (73)strengths used effectively,the team will work better and more productively as a whole.
•Healthy competition can encourage everyone to work more (74)creatively.
•It helps managers to learn about their employees.
Challenges in encouraging healthy competition•●Sometimes competition makes teams (75)focus on short-term    goals instead of long-term goals.
•Sometimes competition makes individuals (76)ignore the whole organization's interests and then just follow their own narrow targets.
What to avoid for healthy competition•Avoid letting competition (77)ruin morale.
•Avoid using (78)unclear processes and guidelines that can result in infighting.

Professor Barry Wellman of the University of Toronto in Canada has invented a term to describe the way many North Americans interact (互动) these days. The term is "networked individualism". This concept is not easy to understand because the words seem to have opposite meanings. How can we be individuals (个体) and be networked at the same time? You need other people for networks.

Here is what Professor Wellman means. Before the invention of the Internet and e-mail, our social networks included live interactions with relatives, neighbors, and friends. Some of the interaction was by phone, but it was still voice to voice, person to person, in real time.

A recent research study by the Pew Internet and American Life Project showed that for a lot of people, electronic interaction through the computer has replaced this person-to-person interaction. However, a lot of people interviewed for the Pew study say that's a good thing. Why?

In the past, many people were worried that the Internet isolated (孤立) us and caused us to spend too much time in the imaginary world of the computer. But the Pew study discovered that the opposite is true. The Internet connects us with more real people than expected-helpful people who can give advice on careers, medical problems, raising children, and choosing a school or college. About 60 million Americans told Pew that the Internet plays an important role in helping them make major life decisions.

Thanks to the computer. We are able to be alone and together with other people-at the same time!

1.The underlined phrase "networked individualism" probably means that by using computers people ________.

A. have the rights and freedom to do things of their own interest

B. are able to keep to themselves but at the same time reach out to other people

C. do things in their own ways and express opinions different from other people

D. stick to their own ways no matter what other people say

2.It can be inferred from the Pew study that ________.

A. people have been separated from each other by using computers

B. the Internet makes people waste a lot of time and feel very lonely

C. the Internet has become a tool for a new kind of social communication

D. a lot of people regard the person-to-person communication as a good thing.

3.According to the Pew study, what do many people rely on to make major life decision?

A. Parents. B. Friends. C. Phones. D. Network.

4.Which would be the best title for this passage?

A. We're Alone on the Internet B. We're Communicating on the Internet

C. We're Alone Together on the Internet D. We're in the Imaginary World of the Internet

Investing in yourself

Figuring out how to invest your money can be a difficult task. This is something that you will want to learn how to do.

1. Things that will improve your knowledge, skills or health are all great investments. However, before you start, you need to be clear about what you will gain out of doing all of these things.

You may think investing in yourself means investing in your education. 2.. There are some other things you can do as well as buying a gym membership or learning a new skill.

So what are some specific things you can do? 3.. Reading books can really expand your mind and allow you to learn different skills and gain knowledge. I’m talking about the books where you will actually learn a new skill, not fiction books.

You can also take courses and attend seminars. These programs are taught by people with a high level of knowledge or skill. 4.. Only in this way can you avoid being fooled by some sales presentation.

Moreover, investing in yourself is a safe way to keep your money. Although a savings account is seen as the most secure investment, that isn’t 100% safe. Even if you never experience your bank closing down, the return is little when inflation(通货膨胀) is taken into consideration. 5.. But over time, they will show up in terms of your happiness level as well as your level of success.

A. This is just one way.

B. The benefits will stay with you.

C. If you aren’t a reader, you should start with that.

D. The more you do this, the more valuable you will be.

E. Of course, you need to do some research before investing.

F. The best way to invest your money is to invest it in yourself.

G. When you invest in yourself, you may not see gains right away.
