14.Your manager comes to you in a panic and asks you to take the place of Sharon,who will be out of town all next week.Your first thought is,"Why me?"Although you are not so happy,you smile and say,"No problem."Your boss is making t he request,after all,so refusal is not a choice.Right?
Not necessarily.In some cases,"Sorry,I can't"may be the most proper response.Here are two examples of situations in which it might make sense to say no and suggestions for how to turn down the boss.
"It seems that Joe can't make the deadline again.Can you handle it?"
The solution(解决方法):If your boss does need your help,taking on the extra work is the right thing to do and can earn you valuable bonus points.However,if these situations arise regularly,to the point where they begin to interfere (干扰) with your regular work,you may need to start pushing back.Next time your boss approaches you seeking emergency help,you might say,"Of course I'll help.But,as you know,I've had to cover for others a lot lately,and it's affecting my own work.Once we get through this project,can we talk about how to better get used to these types of requests in the future?"
"Sorry,but you have to work late again tonight.OK?"
The solution:Most employees understand that there are times when they must stay late to finish their work.But when these requests become frequent,you should speak up.Putting in extra hours every day can quickly lead to breakdown.
Therefore,you might say to your manager,"We're all working a lot of extra time lately.And these hours are becoming difficult for me to maintain(维持).Will we need to keep this pace much longer?If so,could we talk about ways that might help me achieve a better work/life balance during this period?"
It's never easy to say no to your boss.But in some situations it's necessary.Even the best managers can fail to recognize when they're asking too much of their employees.Yes,sometimes you must give in when asked to do something you don't like.But that doesn't mean you must agree to unreasonable requests without question.
24.Which of the following is the best title?A
A.How to Say No to Your Boss                   
B.How to Deal With the Mean Boss
C.How to Respond to Unreasonable Requests      
D.How to Refuse to Stay late
25.Which of the following is true of Joe?D
A.Joe is in hospital.
B.Joe is late for work.
C.Joe will have a week off next week.
D.Joe probably can't finish work on time.
26.What is the writer's attitude towards working overtime frequently?D
A.Positive.B.Negative.C.Unconcerned.D.Objective.
27.According to the passage,turning down your boss isA.
A.difficult        B.pleasant       C.simple          D.easy.

16.Some people go through life positively.(36)GLuckily,you can learn to become positive.If you become more positive,things will become brighter day by day.It's not because things are any better,but because how you look at them will change.Here are a few things positive people do differently.
They find something to look forward to every day.Whether it's catching up on a favorite TV show,trying out a new dessert recipe,or having a phone conversation with a friend in another town,these things don't have to be big.(37)F.
(38)B Joy isn't so hard to find.You can even find joy in the tiniest things-a funny text from a friend or a beautiful sunny day-because it adds up.Soon,you won't have to stop and smell the roses because you'll be smelling them all the time.So learn to enjoy the small things in your life.
They stay busy.Being busy doesn't mean living under much stress.(39)A It means having something to look forward to every day.Start a hobby.Fill your weekends with your hobby.Remember,living your life to the fullest is up to you.
(40)C When in doubt,choose kindness.Positive people look on the bright side,sure,but they also tend to pay it forward by passing on their positive energy to others.Giving is generous,but it also makes the giver feel even better.Now that's a win-win.Be kind to others and others will treat you in the same way.And your days will be much better.

A.It means filling your life with good activities.
B.They celebrate small things.
C.They are kind.
D.They do something for fun.
E.Kindness is most important.
F.Having activities to expect will make you happy every day.
G.But not all of us were born to be positive.
