3．When I was seventeen，I found a watch while walking down the hallway of my high school．As I picked it up，greed（贪婪） suddenly came over me and I decided to keep it．
When I got home from school，I found my mother cooking dinner in the kitchen．I proudly held out my prize for her to see．Mom was angry that I had kept the watch instead of turning it in．Mom then ordered me to drive straight back to the school and take the watch to someone at the office．I started to argue，but after taking a good look at the serious expressions on Mom's face，I realized it would get me nowhere．
As time passed，I forgot all about the watch until four years later．
While I was attending college，I had managed to get a job at a supermarket pushing carts（推车） off the parking place．One morning，I found a checkbook（支票簿） that had been left in a shopping cart．Immediately，I gave it to the boss there so that the customer who had lost it could pick it up．
Later，as I was outside pushing carts，a man came up to me and told me that his wife had left their checkbook in a shopping cart the night before．When he told me his name，I realized he was the owner of the checkbook I had found．I explained to him that he could go inside and get it back at the service desk．
The look on the man's face was gratitude（感恩）．He pulled out his wallet and offered me some money，but I refused．I was proud of myself，prouder than I had been in a long time，and I wasn't about to let something like money destroy that．
Suddenly，the lesson my mom had taught me that day came into focus．Mom wanted to make sure that her son would always be honest．Because of her，I did the right thing when I found that checkbook．Because of her，I had got a feeling of self-worth that no amount of money could buy．

19．31．C
Before you argue with your boss，check with the boss's secretary to decide his mood．If he ate nails for breakfast，it is not a good idea to ask him for something．Even without the boss's secretary，there are keys to timing：don't approach the boss when he's on deadline； don't go in just before or after he has taken a vacation．
32．D
If you are mad，that will only make your boss mad．Calm down first．And don't let a particular concern open the floodgates for all your frustration．The boss will feel that you think negatively about the company and it is hopeless trying to change your mind．Then，maybe he will dismiss you．
33．B
Terrible argument can result when neither the employer nor the employee knows what is the problem the other wants to discuss．Sometimes the fight will go away when the problems are made clear．The employee has to get his point across clearly in order to make the boss understand it．
34．E
Your boss has enough on his mind without your adding more．If you can't put forward an immediate solution，at least suggest how to approach the problem．People who frequently present problems without solutions to their bosses may soon find they can't get past the secretary．
35．F
To deal effectively with a boss，it's important to consider his goals and pressure．If you can put yourself in the position of being a partner to the boss，then he will be naturally more inclined to work with you to achieve your goals．

A．Argue with Your Boss Everything You Want．
B．Make the Problems Clear．
C．Watch your timing．
D．Don't Go in When You Are Angry．
E．Propose Your Solution
F．Put Yourself in the Boss's Position．
