阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项中,选出最佳选项。

  Miguel's co-workers don't quite understand him.One day he is smiling and friendly, a real team player.The next day, he is cross, getting angry over minor things, especially when asked to improve one of his designs.

  Identifying your personality characteristics is the first step in developing a good attitude.Are you a positive, confident person or are you shy and reserved? Do you face problems, looking for solutions, or do you feel someone to blame? Characteristics define you.They help you succeed, or they hold you back.

  Self-awareness, or understanding the factors that make up your personality, is an important step towards happiness, and happiness is the key characteristic of a good attitude.To become self-aware is to be aware of both your good and bad characteristics.

  What are the characteristics that people compliment(恭维)on you? Are you dependable”, “responsible” or “solid” ? Pay attention to the compliment because they are a confirmation of your strongest characteristics.You can use these characteristics to create an even better image.

  People form opinions about you.Whether they are right or wrong doesn't enter the question.You, however, can change their opinions by demonstrating the personality characteristics and attitudes that match the way you want to be viewed.In becoming self-aware, understanding how others see you is an important step.This can be painful; but if you are brave enough to try it, it can be an excellent growth experience.

  Change is not easy, especially when it has to do with your behaviors.You should break the behavior change into small steps because small steps are easier to achieve and more likely to last.The change will be permanent if you want to change for yourself.

The King's School, Canterbury is an independent, coeducational secondary school. There are currently 791 pupils on the school roll(名单). The school has a long and distinguished history, and it is also one of the oldest charities in the country, providing scholarships to pupils and organizing a Charity of the Term.

The curriculum(课程) at King's is based on strong academic roots. It emphasizes and relies upon what is best in traditional independent school education: scholarly excellence supported by a caring and tutorial system, and a wide­ranging co­curricular programme. However, it is continually adapting and reacting to the changing demands of modern education: new subjects are added, new teaching techniques are adopted, and there is an increasing awareness of the need to provide programmes of study that match individual needs and skills.

The curriculum is divided into three units: the Lower School(Year 9 ), an introductory year; the Middle School(Years 10 and 11 ), working to GCSEs; and the Sixth Form(Years 12 and 13), taking AS and A levels.

Full details can be found in: Shell Guide and Handbook; Middle School Academic Guide 2009—2011; Middle School Academic Guide 2010—2012; Sixth Form Guide 2009—2011 and Sixth Form Guide 2010—2012.

Formal and structured educational support, for those who need it, is available at all levels. The well­stocked library is open 7 days and 6 evenings per week. ICT facilities (including the Internet) are available for all and the whole school(studies within the houses as well as classrooms) is extensively networked.

Pupils are offered extensive career advice throughout their time at King's. Almost all go to university, either immediately or following a GAP year. The most popular university destinations are Cambridge, Bristol, Nottingham, Durham, Leeds, Oxford, Edinburgh, Manchester, and University College, London.
