18.He is one of the most charming young heroes since Harry Potter.Like Potter,he is chosen to carry out a mission-busy preparing to lead to save the Earth during the upcoming war,but unlike Potter,he doesn't get any chances to have fun or hang out with friends.
He is Ender Wiggin,15,the main character of the hit US sci-fi movie Ender's Games,which came out on Jan.7,2014 in china.
The story opens in 2086,50 years after an insect-like alien race,called the Formics,attacked the Earth and killed tens of millions of people before being driven back to their home planet.Since then,human beings have been in a state of fear,awaiting a second attack.
Earth's military leaders seek young heroes to risk going into space for battle,and children are taught to compete for that.As the film explains,youths have quicker intuition(直觉),make quicker effective attack strategies than adults.
So here comes Ender,the hero of all mankind.Though Ender is a thin kid,smaller than most,he is also smarter than average.He tends to analyze situations and easily find ways to achieve his goals.This rare gift makes him stand out and get chosen to the battle school,where he is directed to plan and carry out a series of attacks on the Formics,which he later uses to wipe out Earth's enemies.
According to The Hollywood reporter,the film best presents the power of empathy(感情移入),which is what makes Ender a good leader."The reason Ender succeeds is that he can foresee what his enemies will do on the battlefield,"explained the entertainment news site.

When Should a Leader Apologize and When Not?
Why Difficult?
When we wrong someone we know,even not intentionally,we are generally expected to apologize so as to improve the situation.But when we're acting as leaders,the circumstances are different.The act of apology is carried out not merely at the level of the individual but also at the level of the institution.It is a performance in which every expression matters and every word becomes part of the public record.Refusing to apologize can be smart,or it can be stupid.So,readiness to apologize can be seen as a sign of strong character or as a sign of weakness.A successful apology can turn hate into personal and organizational harmony-while an apology that is too little,too late,or too obviously strategic can bring on individual and institutional ruin.What,then,is to be done?How can leaders decide if and when to apologize publicly?
Why Now?
The question of whether leaders should apologize publicly has never been more urgent.During the last decade or so,the United States in particular has developed an apology culture-apologies of all kinds and for all sorts of wrongdoings are made far more frequently than before.More newspaper writers have written about the growing importance of public apologies.More articles,cartoons,advice columns,and radio and television programs have similarly dealt with the subject of private apologies.
Why Bother?
Why do we apologize?Why do we ever put ourselves in situations likely to be difficult,embarrassing,and even risky?Leaders who apologize publicly could be an easy target.They are expected to appear strong and capable.And whenever they make public statements of any kind,their individual and institutional reputations are in danger.Clearly,then,leaders should not apologize often or lightly.For a leader to express apology,there needs to be a good,strong reason.Leaders will publicly apologize if and when they think the costs of doing so are lower than the costs of not doing so.
Why Refuse?
Why is it that leaders so often refuse to apologize,even when a public apology seems to be in order?Their reasons can be individual or institutional.Because leaders are public figures,their apologies are likely to be personally uncomfortable and even professionally risky.Leaders may also be afraid that admission of a mistake will damage or destroy the organization for which they are responsible.There can be good reasons for hanging tough in tough situations,as we shall see,but it is a high-risk strategy.
