How to show respect to your co-workers

If you want to reduce the stress in your work environment, one of the best things you can do is to respect your co-workers. Showing respect will earn you respect. 【1】 Respect is the first building block for the success of a relationship.

Use your manners. Greet your co-workers as you enter and exit your work place. Always use “please”, ”thank you” and “pardon me “.If you do, all of your requests will be seen as just that, and not orders.2 It means everything from covering your mouth when you sneeze or yarn ,to holding a door open or an elevator open when you see a co-worker coming.

Make a pleasant small talk, but don’t go too far with this concept. You don’t have to talk for hours or know everything about your co-workers .Generally, people feel more comfortable in working environments where they know each other.

Lend a helping hand. This doesn’t mean that you have to be a martyr(受苦者). Don’t always take the “that’s not my job.” attitude. If you are having a particularly light day, or you see one of your co-workers drowning in work, offer to help. 3 It will probably make you feel good too.

Apologize if you are wrong and be humble. No one likes a show off. You can talk about the good characteristics, traits, and relationships in your life without making people feel like you are better than them. 4 Co-workers will take notice.

5 Being positive not only lifts your spirits, but also lifts the spirits of those around you .No one wants to be around someone who is constantly negative or always complaining.

A. Speak encouraging words to others.

B. Actually some co-workers don’t need our respect.

C. It also allows you to get to know and befriend your co-workers.

D. Your co-workers will appreciate your generous efforts.

E. Avoid standing , sitting or talking too close to someone.

F. No one is perfect, but what makes up your character is how you handle your mistakes.

G. Manners can be actions as well.

Many people talk about how reading books can expand your knowledge and improve your life. __【1】__ Reading books is indeed good. But there is one aspect of it that many people tend to forget: the value of rereading books.

In fact, I’d argue that rereading books is just as important as reading new ones.Here are some reasons why rereading books is good:

1. __【2】__

Research shows that in just 24 hours people would forget most of what they’ve read. You might get a lot of good ideas from a book, but it’s easy to forget most of them. Rereading a book helps you refresh those ideas in your mind.

2. _【3】__

Just as it’s easy to forget ideas, it’s also easy to have some ideas skip your attention when you first read a book. Rereading the book helps you notice them.

3. It gives you a new perspective.

__【4】__ The ideas that didn’t make sense before could now make sense. The things that didn’t matter before could now be connected to your experience.

4. It helps you apply the ideas.

In my opinion, the primary value of reading is the application and not the reading itself. Reading alone could expand your knowledge but application could change your life. By rereading a book, you can see which parts of it you have applied and which parts haven’t. __【5】_

A. It helps you refresh yourself.

B. It reminds you of the good ideas.

C. There’s nothing wrong with that, of course.

D. Rereading a book allows you to see it with fresh eyes.

E. It helps you notice the ideas that you didn’t notice before.

F. You can then focus your effort on the parts that need more work.

G. Later, when you’ve applied them, you can find reading all kinds of materials really works.

【题目】 Money has always complicated our social lives. A question in October from a woman wondering whether she should attend her neighbors’ holiday parties broke my heart: “I am not able to do the same in return, and I just feel like a freeloader to do so,” she wrote. “I’m not even in a position this year to take an appropriate thankyou gift with me.” I told her to go, of course.

Meanwhile, hosts worried about the costs of entertaining the hosts who write to me, anyway. On the other hand, the hosts that guests write to me about have taken some extreme measures to reduce the cost of their hospitality. These range from a dinner party where a relative of the host explained how expensive the steaks were and “rather pointedly suggested” that the letter writer “make a financial contribution” to the cost of dinner, to some Cape Cod homeowners who invited a couple to spend a weekend with them as long as they brought their own food, bottled water, and toilet paper.

Weddings and other special events always create extra sources of stress, worsened by the fact that people rarely want to talk honestly about their money situations. One couple chose to have only a civil wedding ceremony for financial reasons and wondered how to tell people this without going into too much detail. A sixtysomething couple needed to cut back on Christmas gifts to their children but weren’t sure how to tell them about it. People who had been laid off wondered how tonotify friends, respond to inquiries about their job search, and compete with former colleagues for positions.

If you are searching for the answers to them, write to me—an advice columnist.

【1】The underlined word “freeloader” in the 1st paragraph showed the woman’s ________.

A. disapproval B. happiness

C. confusion D. agreement

2What bothered the hosts mentioned in Paragraph 2 most in their social lives?

A. Steaks. B. Entertainment.

C. Cost. D. Thankyou gifts.

3What would you be expected to do if you were invited to spend a weekend with some Cape Cod homeowners?

A. Ask someone for advice.

B. Get your food and water ready.

C. Bring a bottle of wine with you.

D. Make a financial contribution to the cost.

4What makes the social life even worse?

A. Weddings and other social events.

B. Being laid off and notifying friends.

C. Cutting back the costs for lack of money.

D. Telling others about their financial troubles.

Climbing blindly

Mount Everest is the highest mountain in the world. 【1】 Asia is home to all five of the world’s highest mountains. Mount Everest’s peak(山峰) is five and one-half miles above sea level. That is very high!

Many climbers have tried to climb to the peak of Mount Everest. 2 Since then, about 900 people have survived the climb to Mount Everest’s top.

One of the most successful climbers is Erik Weihenmayer. Like all who try to climb this huge mountain, Erik faced strong winds, snow, and avalanches(雪崩). 3 After losing his sight at age 13, Erik began climbing at age 16. He has climbed the tallest mountains on five continents. Erik became the first blind person to reach the peak of Mount Everest.

At the age of 32, Erik began his climb as part of a 19-member team. 4 By using them, fellow climbers could quickly warn him of such things as a big drop on the right or a big stone to the left.

5 He struggled through 100 m.p.h. winds and sliding masses of snow, ice, and rock. Because the air became thinner the higher Erik climbed, he wore an oxygen mask, as do many who climb high mountains. It took Erik about two and a half months to reach the top of this huge mountain.

A.This mountain is located in Asia.

B.During his climb, Erik faced many dangers.

C.Everest is believed to be more than 60 million years old.

D.His team wore bells that he could follow during his climb.

E.Erik used long climbing poles to feel his way on the mountain.

F.However, what really made Erik’s climb unbelievable is the fact that he is blind.

G.The first people to reach the peak were Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay.
