Mr. Rogerson, 51, the father of two girls and two boys, has taught teamowork among his children, with real money. Eight years ago, when they ranged in age from 5 to 13, he and his wife decided to give them $ 5,000 to make investment (投资) each year – for the family’s summer holiday. The more money they made, the more joy they could get on holiday.
In 2001 – a bad year for the stock market (股票市场). “They bought stocks. Their money went down from $ 5,000 to $ 2,000.” Mr. Rogerson said, “We went camping.”
During the second year, “They made $ 50,” he said. “That year we drove down to Florida to visit family.”
By the their year, the children earned $ 600 on their $ 5,000, and the family went to Disney World.
Mr. Rogerson said that the point of the experience – learning to work together to make intelligent decisions about money – is an important one and the effort has helped them discover their own talent. “We found that one boy showed great leadership and the other one was great with numbers,” he said. “Each had a different talent.”

[Possible version]
Mr. Roegerson has taught his children how to make investment together for the summer vacation. From the teamwork, the children learn a lot and find their own talent.
Like Mr. Rogerson and his wife, people realize that not only can teamwork make good use of the talent of its members but it can also accomplish its goals more easily. For example, last week we were supposed to do a project in a group of 5. after getting the information together, my team divided the work according to our strengths, one for the PowerPoint, one for the paper work, and the other three for acting. Due to our cooperation, the project got a 98.
Since teamwork benefits us a lot, we should know the tips for better teamwork. To begin with, make the team goals clear for everyone. Work hard on what you are responsible for. In addition, never miss opportunities to support your team members.

A. The most common problem is a “wandering” mind B. Selective listening is also a mental barrier C. Listening isn’t an easy skill to master D. Attitude can also influence good listening E. Noise and background music makes listening more difficult F. Listening is also related to the level of the listener’s knowledge |
1._____________
Listening is not as easy as someone thought. Even good listeners may recall only fifty percent of what they hear. Retention, the ability to remember and recall information, decreases about twenty to twenty-five percent after a few days. So no matter how well you listen in class, you’re always going to have to refresh your memory before a test! Unfortunately, many people have poor listening habits, and little listening training. To improve your listening skills, it’s important to understand what causes poor listening.
2.___________
If you find it difficult to concentrate solely on what a speaker is saying, there’s a good reason. The mind processes information much faster than a speaker can speak. The brain can process over 500 words per minute, while the average speaker talks at a rate of 124 to 250 words per minute. That means the mind can hear what’s being said and can think about something else at the same time.
3.____________
If you have a negative idea about the speaker or the topic, you’ll find it difficult to listen attentively. Hostile or captive audiences often have more difficultly listening than do favorable or voluntary ones.
4.____________
If a speaker speaks “above the heads” of an audience, people find it difficult to concentrate. Speakers who use unfamiliar words or who use incomplete explanations make it more difficult to listen. Speakers who “speak down” to audiences, failing to acknowledge what the audience already knows, also create mental blocks.
5.___________
When people listen selectively, they simply block out what they don’t want to hear. For instance, many people have habits that are dangerous to their health, like smoking. However, they often choose to block out what a speaker says about health risks. They may listen to a speech and think that the speaker’s message applies to other people, not them. In other words, they hear what they want to hear and ignore what they don’t want to hear.
