It is known to be one of the most ___9___ spoken languages, as over 300 million people speak in this tongue. In case you want to learn it, then there are many Arabic translation services that ___10___ people how to actually speak the language.

We imagine the satisfaction of traveling to exciting places or being surrounded by expensive devices. If we cannot afford those goals, then we are happy to settlefor a quiet evening in front of the television set with a drink close by.Pleasure is a feeling of contentment that one achieves whenever expectations set by biological programs or by social conditioning have been met. The taste of food when we are hungry is pleasant because it reduces a physiological (生理的)imbalance. Resting in the evening while passively absorbing information from TV, with alcohol or drugs to dull the mind overexcited by the demands of work, is pleasantly relaxing. Traveling to Acapulco is pleasant because the exciting novelty (新奇)restores our sensations (感觉)exhausted by the repetitive routines of everyday life.When people think further about what makes their lives rewarding, they tend to move beyond pleasant memories and begin to remember other events, other experiences that overlap (重叠)with pleasurable ones but fall into a category that deserves a separate name: enjoyment. Enjoyable events occur when a person has not only met some expectation or satisfied a need or a desire but also gone beyond what he or she has been programmed to do and achieved something unexpected, perhaps something even unimagined before.Enjoyment is characterized by this forward movement: by a sense of novelty, of accomplishment. Playing a close game of tennis that stretches one’s ability is enjoyable, as is reading a book that reveals things in a new light, as is having a conversation that leads us to express i deas we didn’t know we had. Closing a contested business deal, or any piece of work well done, is enjoyable. None of these experiences may be particularly pleasurable at the time they are taking place, but afterward we think back on them and say, “That really was fun” and wish they would happen again. After an enjoyable event we know that we have changed, that our self has grown: in some respect, we have become more complex as a result of it.Experiences that give pleasure can also give enjoyment, but the two sensations are quite different. For instance, everybody takes pleasure in eating. To enjoy food, however, is more difficult. A gourmet (美食家)enjoys eating, as does anyone who pays enough attention to a meal so as to discriminate the various sensations provided by it. As this example suggests, we can experience pleasure without any investment of psychic energy, whereas enjoyment happens only as a result of unusual investments of attention. A person can feel pleasure without any effort, but it is impossible to enjoy a tennis game, a book, or a conversation unless attention is fully concentrated on the activity. Pleasure and Enjoyment。

This can also be stated in simpler terms as a child who is not doing whatadults want him to do at a particular time. Children with this disorder often seem to be behaving in different andsocially unacceptable ways.Like learning disabilities, behavior disorders are hard to diagnose. There are no physical symptoms in the bodythat are observable or measurable. Behavior disorders are therefore identified by observing behavior patterns in thechild over a period of time. If a child displays some of the following behaviors, he may be labeled with a behaviordisorder:◆Aggression and cruelty to people and animals.◆Destruction of property —defacing or damaging things.◆Little sympathy and concern for others.◆Takes no responsibility for behavior. Also lies, cheats and steals easily.◆Disregards rules and regulations.In addition to these general symptoms of a behavior disorder, there are other symptoms characteristic of morespecific behavior disorders such as ADHD—this is the inattentive, can't-sit-still behavior. The attention can't lastlong and the behavior is impulsive at times. The child also seems quite distracted and forgetful. Behavior disorders come from brain injury, child abuse, and shock, etc. There have also been indications thatit could be a genetic disorder. The behavior therefore is an involuntary response to these experiences and the childshould not be blamed for his behavior. Since the child has problems controlling his behavior, it stands to reason thathis performance in school will be affected. A child with a behavior disorder will feel bad about himself and that lowself-esteem will be further worsened by the adults around him who do not treat his condition with understandingand willingness to help.Behavior disorders are best dealt with by behavior and psychological treatments. But, as with learning disabilities, accurate diagnosis is important and this must be over a length of time. It is also important in trying tomodify the behavior to be clear about what is the behavior you are expecting. Make sure it is a rational expectation.For example, expecting a three-year-old to sit quietly through a long church service may not be reasonable, ordemanding that a six-year-old does extra home work after a long day of school and extra curricular activities maybe stretching the child's concentration and attention too far. Since some behavior disorders result from shockingand upsetting life experiences or brain injury, treatments should include helping the child to resolve and healemotionally from the experience. The behavior could be corrected through emotional healing. In other words, whena human being is emotionally healthy, that is, can be aware of his intelligence and enthusiasm for life and his lovingconnectedness to other human beings, he automatically “behaves”rationally.Title: Behavior DisordersPassage outline Supporting (1)A person may be considered to have a Behavior disorder when he Definition of a Behavior behavesapparently (2) disorderfrom others.and showing no mercy to animals and other peopleBeing (3) Symptoms of a behaviordisorderTending to do damage to things around himHaving little sympathy or concern for othersFailing to (4)for what he has done and not being honestLacking the awareness of (5)rules and regulationsHaving difficulty concentrating on something for longFactorsSome outside forces may lead to a Behavior disorder.A genetic disorder giving (7)(6)________to a Behavior disorder has also been found.in Behavior disordersBehavior treatment: diagnosing such a disorder (8)and modifying theWays to deal with Behaviordisordered Behavior in a rational way.Psychological treatment: attaching importance to improving the patdisorders ent'semotional (9), thus, developing a proper self-esteem.A Behavior disorder isn't nearly 10)to diagnose from physicalConclusionsymptoms, but it can be dealt with in Behavior and psychological ways.。

Women’s education may be an unusual economical field, but increasing women’s contribution to development is actually as much an economic issue as a social one. And economics, with its focus on encouragement, provides an explanation for why so many girls are rid of an education.Parents in low-income countries fail to invest in their daughters because they do not expect them to make an economic contribution to the family：girls grow up only to marry into somebody else’s family and bear children. Girls are thus seen as less valuable than boys and are kept at home to do housework while their brothers are sent to school—the prophecy(观念)becomes self-fulfilling, trapping women in a vicious(恶性的)circle of neglect.An educated mother, on the other hand, has greater earning abilities outside the home and faces an entirely different set of choices. She is likely to have fewer but healthier children and can insist on the development of all her children, ensuring that her daughters are given a fair chance. The education of her daughters then makes it much more likely that the next generation of girls, as well as boys, will be educated and healthy. The vicious circle is thus transformed into a virtuous circle.Few will argue that educating women has great social benefits. But it has enormous economic advantages as well. Most obviously, there is the direct effect of education on the wages of female workers. Wages rise by 10 to 20 percent for each additional year of schooling. Such big returns are impressive by the standard of other available investment, but they are just the beginning. Educating women also has a significant effect on health practices, including family planning.The Significance of Female (1) in Developing Countries四、阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式One of the biggest challenges 1 (face)students today is how to concentrate on studies.

But, now, after one semester as a college student, many of my old ideas have ___2___ completely.I used to imagine bossy upper-classmen, for example. I thought they would be know-it-all rulers of the campus who ___3___ freshmen for fun. I pictured being ___4___ to the wrong classrooms, being ignored. But, in fact, the upper-classmen turned out to be quite ___5___. They offered to help me and inspired me to ___6___ my tough courses.The upper-classmen weren’t the only ones I worried about. I was also ___7___ about the other freshmen. I was afraid they might think I was too fat, too shy, too ___8___, or even too dumb to bother with. ___9___, I was wrong. When I finally got to college, I discovered that most students felt exactly as I did. They were as uneasy with me as I was with them, and as we started to open up, we began to ___10___ one another. We began to become curious about each other’s backgrounds and interests; the differences among us actually became ___11___.I changed my mind about other things too. I had ___12___ homework to be a book-filled nightmare, which would keep me from meeting ___13___ dates. I did have some ___14___ tests; I did break out in a clammy sweat, and ___15___ a stomach upset and a gigantic headache, but contrary to expectations, I passed all of my exams with good grades.I’ve always been ___16___. Then if the worst happens, I’m just ready for it. I have planned to live ___17___ this principle before. But after this, I know not all schools would be the same. This one ___18___ to be much better than I thought it would be — a good ___19___ in not jumping to conclusions. No doubt my ___20___ toward college will shift still more as I go on, but I know I’ll never be as negative as I was before I got to college.1.A. directors B. heroes C. stars D. actors2.A. changed B. advanced C. developed D. occurred3.A. attacked B. challenged C. tricked D. reminded4.A. attracted B. persuaded C. followed D. directed5.A. considerate B. unusual C. conservative D. honest6.A. stick with B. compete with C. compare with D. correspond with7.A. crazy B. concerned C. guilty D. serious8.A. nervous B. embarrassed C. ugly D. anxious9.A.

By knowing how other members of your team and organization think—and by others knowing how you think—everyone can be more productive. So how should you evaluate how you and your team think? After a lot of trial-and-error, we developed a three-step method that delivers practical and meaningful results.Focus. Do you tend to pay the most attention to ideas, process, action, or relationships? For example, in the morning do you think about the problems you need to solve, the plans you need to make, the actions you need to take, or the people you need to see? This isn’t about picking one to the exclusion(排除)of the other. It’s about where your focus naturally lands.Orientation(方向). A good way to identify your orientation is thinking about what tends to bother you in meetings. Are you more likely to complain about getting dragged into the weeds or about things being too general and not specific enough? These dimensions are complementary(补充的)to personality, skills, and traditional roles.Combination. By combing these two dimensions you can know about the thinking style at work in whatever context or setting you chose. When you know your thinking style, you know what naturally energizes you, why certain type of problems are challenging or boring, and what you can do to improve in areas that are important to reaching your goals. Once you know your style, it helps to share it with others, and have others share theirs with you. In this way, your thinking style becomes a useful tool—a kind of social currency—for the team. Imaging you put together a team to work on a new initiative(行动). Wouldn’t you like to know who is energized by big-picture strategy discussions and who finds them frustrating? Who likes to work on the details of the execution? And who is energized by managing the team dynamics?The landscape of business is changing rapidly, and we have to find new and better ways to connect and communicate. We all want to work better together, the challenge is actually making it happen. Understanding collaboration(合作)through the way of thinking rather than doing is a practical and powerful step forward.。

It’s a common complaint these days. A steady stream of similar headlines accuses the Net and its offspring apps, social media sites and online games of addicting us to distraction.There’s little doubt that nearly everyone who comes in contact with the Net has difficulty disconnecting. Then who’s at fault for its overuse? To find solutions, it’s important to understand what we’re dealing with. There are four parties cooperating to keep you connected: the tech, your boss, your friends and you.The technologies themselves and their makers are the easiest suspects to blame for our distraction. Online services like Facebook, Google, twitter and the like rely on advertising revenue, so the more frequently you use them, the more money they make. No wonder these companies employ teams of people focused on improving their services to be as attractive as possible.Good as these services are, there are simple steps we can take to keep them from coming too close. However, less than 15 percent of smartphone users are willing to adjust their notification settings meaning the remaining 85 percent of us default to(默认)the app makers’ every preset devices.While companies like Facebook harvest attention to generate revenue from advertisers, other technologies have no such agenda. Take email, for example. We check email at all hours of the day we’re obsessed, because that’s what the boss wants. For almost all white-collar jobs, email is the primary tool of corporate communication.A slow response to a message could hurt not only your reputation but also your livelihood.Your friends are also responsible for the addiction. Think about this familiar scene. People gathered around a table, enjoying food and each others’ company. Then, during an interval in the conversation, someone takes out their phone to check who knows what. Barely anyone notices and no one says a thing.The reality is taking one’s phone out at the wrong time is more than an impolite behavior because, unlike other minor offense, checking tech is contagious(传染). Once one person looks at their phone, other people tend to do the same, starting a chain reaction.Hie technology, your boss, and your friends, all influence how often you find yourself using(or overusing) these gadgets. But there’s still someone who deserves careful examination the person holding the phone.When people are doing something difficult they’d rather not do, the phone is used to transport them elsewhere. They can easily escape discomfort temporarily, by answering email or browsing the web under the excuse ofso-called “research”. The truth is that we are working unproductively out of our bad habits.Personal technology is indeed more attractive than ever, which doesn’t mean we shouldn’t attempt to control our use of technology, instead, we should come to terms with the fact that it’s more than the technology that’s responsible for our habits. Our workplace culture, social norms and individual behaviors all play a part.四、阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式Chinese Bullfighters Bring Martial Arts (武术)to Their SportSeveral times a week.

Some stresses get you going and they are good for you-without any stress at all many say our lives would be boring and would probably feel pointless. However, when the stresses undermine both our mental and physical health they are bad. Here we shall be focusingon stress that is bad for you.Stress is the feeling we have when under pressure, while stressors are the things we respond to in our environment. Examples of stressors are noises, unpleasant people, a speeding car, or even going out on a first date.Generally (but not always), the more stressors we experience, the more stressed we feel.When we are stressed the following happens:Blood pressure rises.Breathing becomes more rapid.Heart rate (pulse) rises.Muscles become tense.We do not sleep (heightened state of alertness).Most of us have varying interpretations of what stress is about and what matters. Some of us focus on whathappens to us, such as breaking a bone or getting a promotion, while others think more about the event itself. Howyou see that stressful event will be the largest single factor that impacts on your physical and mental health. Yourinterpretation of events and challenges in life may decide whether they are invigorating or harmful for you.There are three broad methods you can follow to treat stress.Self help for treating stressExercise has been proven to have a beneficial effect on a person’s mental and physical state. For ma exercise is an extremely useful stress buster.Alcohol and drugs will not help you manage your stress better. Either stop consuming them completely, or cutdown.If your consumption of coffee and other drinks which contain caffeine is high, cut down.Eat plenty of fruit and vegetables. Make sure you have a healthy and balanced diet.Talk to your family, friends, work colleagues and your boss. Express your thoughts and worries.Stress management techniquesStress management can help you to keep away from the source of stress, change the way you view a stressful event, and lower the impact that stress might have on your body. Stress management therapy will have the objective of pursuing one or more of these approaches.MedicinesDoctors will not usually prescribe medications for coping with stress, unless the patient has an underlying illness, such as depression or some type of anxiety. If that is the case, the doctor is actually treating a mental illness. In such cases, an antidepressant may be prescribed. Bear in mind that there is a risk that all the medication will dois mask the stress, rather than help you deal and cope with it.StressPassage outline Supporting detailsUnderstanding of stress●Stress is pressure or worry 1by the stressors in your life.●Some stresses 2you while some others make you suffer.3of stress●You have 4blood pressure.●Your heart 5faster.●You become sleepless.●Your breath and muscles are abnormal.Attitudes towards stress ●You care about what concerns 6.●You pay attention to what is 7around you.●Above all, how you look at challenges affects your health.Ways to deal with stress ●Exercise, a proper diet, communication help to 8your stress whilealcohol, drugs and coffee do not.●Stress management guides you how to 9and reduce stress.●Medicines can be used to treat a mental illness but cannot solve the problem10.。

Parents who have trouble tearing their teens away from the computer or smart phone may wonder whether their teenager is addicted to technology.One big change that has come with new technology and especially smart phones is that we are never really alone. Kids update their status, s haring what they’re watching, listening to, and reading at all times. The result is that kids feel connected with each other all the time, never getting a break from them. That, in and of itself, can produce anxiety. It’s a lso surprisingly easy to feel lonely and depressed in the middle of all that connection.Today kids are missing out on very critical social skills. In the past kids were more likely to chat and hang out in person. Through real-time interactions, they were experimenting and trying out skills. In a way, texting and online communicating puts everybody in a nonverbal disabled context, where body language, facial expression, and even the smallest kinds of vocal reactions are invisible.Peer acceptance is a big thing for adolescents, and their i mage matters a lot to them. Who wouldn’t want to make herself look cooler if she can? So kids can spend hours beautifying their online identities, trying to project an idealized image.Social media also can have a positive effect, however. Some research has found that social media can be a resource for teens to find social support when they are struggling with life issues, and that introvert kids can use the different online platforms as a way to express themselves. So they are able to build friendships and relationships through the interaction they have with others on the Internet.Social networking makes kids more peer-based. Teens interact and receive feedback from one another. They are motivated to learn more from each other than from adults. Teachers and adults are no longer the only sources of knowledge.Whether technology is good or bad largely depends on the person who uses it. Parents are role models for their children. They should cut down their own consumption first, and limit the amount of time their kids spend on social media. It is also suggested that sites like Instagram and schools teach safe social media use.四、阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式If you feel stressed by responsibilities at work, you should take a step back and identify those of 1 (great)and le ss importance.

Various factors influence the choice of media and language. In s ome cases, it’s simply practical to advertise in the consumer’s native language, particularly if many of the consumers in this group are primarily monolingual. In other cases, by advertising on, say, a Spanish television channel in the US, an advertiser may earn the respect of the consumer by addressing him in his native language, as well as develop positive associations with the medium and its unique content. Now, marketers have another factor to consider when deciding where to advertise and in what language. A paper. Do bilinguals have two personalities? A special case of cultural frame switching published by researchers at the University of Texas, shows that bilingual individuals exhibit different personality characteristics when speaking different languages.Lead researcher Nairan Ramirez-Esparza, tested individuals who were bilingual in English and Spanish for various personality traits, and found that the subjects answered the questions differently when asked in English and Spanish. The new work built on past research showed the values of subjects changed when they were surrounded by stimuli from different cultures.How can marketers take advantage of “cultural frame switching”? It may sound challenging without specific research, but at least for Spanish, English bilinguals in the US, there is now some hard data on the language-related personality shift. Extrapolating to other language combinations may be possible, too. Since the Spanish/English bilingual results seem to be in agreement with testing of monolingual Spanish and English speakers, language-specific testing of bilingual subjects may not be essential to get an idea of what kind of cultural frame switching might occur in other bilingual combinations. Rather, comparing known personality differences for each language/culture would give an indication of the differences bilingual individuals would exhibit.I think it would be a mistake to over-emphasize this phenomenon over other criteria affecting the selection of appropriate media and language to reach a target market. Clearly, the major considerations of demographics (人口统计资料), perception of the medium, language fluency, etc. should remain major factors. Besides, the language-driven cultural frame switching may not make much difference to many products or services. If the product does attract one cultural personality more, though, it may make sense to exploit that difference of the other decision criteria are more or less equivalent.The researchers point out that the differences aren’t great. Even if slight, though, the differences are noticeable.。

Firms of all types are using AI to forecast demand, hire workers and deal with customers. The McKinsey Global Institute, a think-tank within a consultancy, forecasts that just applying AI to marketing, sales and supply chains could create economic value of $2.7trn over the next 20 years.Such grand forecasts fuel anxiety as well as hope. Less familiar, but just as important, is how AI will transform the workplace.Start with the benefits.AI ought to improve productivity. Humanyze, a people analytics software provider, combines data from its badges(工牌)with employees’ calendars and e-mails to work out, say, whether office layouts favour teamwork .Slack, a workplace messaging app, helps managers assess how quickly employees accomplish tasks. Companies will see when workers are not just dozing off but also misbehaving.Employees will gain, too. Thanks to advance in computer vision, AI can check that workers are wearing safety equipment and that no one has been harmed on the factory floor. Some will appreciate more feedback on their work and welcome a sense of how to do better.Machines can help ensure that pay rises and promotions go to those who deserve them. That starts with hiring. People often have biases but algorithms(算法), if designed correctly, can be more unprejudiced. Software can flag patterns that people might miss.Yet AI’s benefits will come with many potential drawbacks. Algorithms may not be free of the biases of their programmers, which can have unintended consequences. The length of a travel may predict whether an employee will quit a job, but this focus may harm poorer applicants. Older staff might work more slowly than younger ones and could risk losing their positions if all AI looks for is productivity. And surveillance(监控)may feel Orwellian—a sensitive matter now that people have begun to question how much Facebook and other tech giantsknow about their private lives.As regulators and employers weigh the pros and cons of AI in the workplace, three principles ought to guide its spread. First, data should be anonymized where possible. Microsoft, for example, has a product that shows individuals how they manage their time in the office, but gives managers information only in aggregated(整合)form. Second, the use of AI ought to be transparent. Employees should be told what technologies are being used in their workplaces and which data are being gathered. As a matter of routine, algorithms used by firms to hire, fire and promote should be tested for bias and unintended consequences. Last, countries should let individuals request their own data, whether they are ex-workers wishing to contest a dismissal or jobseekers hoping to demonstrate their ability to prospective employers.The march of Al into the workplace calls for trade-offs between privacy and performance. A fairer, more productive workforce is a prize worth having, but not if it chains employees. Striking a balance will require thought, a willingness for both employers and employees to adapt and a strong dose of humanity.四、阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式Many of us wake up feeling tired in the morning. Many of us ignore the problem as the day goes on, forgetting that it might have a 1 (danger)effect. Society even glorifies “burning the candle at both ends” as a sign of our 2 (devote)to work and family.Believe 3 or not, all this bad sleep has far-reaching consequences.

People with social anxiety can usually interact easily with family and a few close friends. Instead of enjoying social activities, they might fear them and avoid some of them altogether. Like other anxieties, it is a fear reaction to something that isn’t ac tually dangerous, although the body and mind react as if the danger is real. Because the physical sensations that go with the response are real and sometimes quite strong the danger se ems real. With social anxiety, a person’s fears and concerns are focused on the social performance whether it’s a major class presentation or small talk at the lockers. People tend to feel embarrassed and uncomfortable about being noticed or judged by others.Social anxiety might prevent someone from chatting with friends in the lunchroom, joining an after-school club, going to a party, or asking someone on a date. It might keep a person from volunteering an answer in class, reading aloud, or giving a presentation. It might prevent someone from acting the school play, being in the talent show, trying out for a team, or joining in a service project. It also prevents them from making the normal, everyday mistakes that help people improve their skills still further.Social anxiety develops because the genetic features from parents and other relatives can influence how the brain senses and controls anxiety, shyness, nervousness, and stress reactions. Meanwhile, some people are born with a shy character and tend t o be cautious and sensitive in new situations and prefer what’s familiar. Naturally a person’s shy character can be influenced by what he or she learns from role models. If parents or others react by overprotecting a child who is shy, the child won’t have a chance to get used to new situations and new people. If people born with a cautious nature have stressful experiences, social anxiety can make them even more cautious and shy. Feeling pressured to interact in ways they don’t feel ready for, being critici zed or insulted, or having otherfears and worries can make it more likely for a shy or fearful person to develop social anxiety.Sometimes, but not always, medicines that reduce anxiety are used as part of the treatment. Family or friends are especially important and the right support from a few key people can help those with social anxiety gather the courage to go outside their comfort zone and try something new. Dealing with social anxiety takes patience, courage to face fears and try new things, and the willingness to practice.四、阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式There’s no electricity or water.

It’s deeply moving to be in this city just two weeks after the horrific attacks here, and I’m inspired by the way the French people have persevered in such a difficult time.Two related proposals are being announced at the event. One is Mission Innovation, a commitment by more than ten countries to invest more in research on clean energy. The other is Breakthrough Energy Coalition, a global group of private investors who will support companies that are taking innovative clean-energy ideas out of the lab and into the marketplace. Our primary goal with the Coalition is as much to accelerate progress on clean energy as it’s to make a profit.Here’s the thinking behind these two efforts. The world is going to be using 50 percent more energy by mid-century than it does today. That should be good news, especially for the world’s poorest, because right now more than 1 billion people live without access to basic energy services. Affordable and reliable energy makes it easier for them to grow more food, run schools and hospitals and businesses, have refrigerators at home, and take advantage of all the things that make up modern life. Low- and middle-income countries need energy to develop their economies and help more people escape poverty.But the world’s growing demand for energy is also a big problem, because most of that energy comes from hydrocarbons, which emit greenhouse gases and drive climate change. So we need to move to sources of energy that are affordable and reliable, and don’t produce any carbon.The renewable technologies we have today, like wind and solar, have made a lot of progress and could be one path to a zero-carbon energy future. But given the scale of the challenge, we need to be exploring many different paths —and that means we also need to invent new approaches. Private companies will ultimately develop these energy breakthroughs, but their work will rely on the kind of basic research that only governments can fund. Both have a role to play. I’m honored to be a part of this event. It’s great to see so many government leaders and investors making these commitments and showing how the public and private sectors can come together to work on big problems. I’m optimistic that we can invent the tools we need to generate clean, affordable, reliable energythat will help the poorest improve their lives and also stop climate change. I hope even more governments and investors will join us.。

Homeschooling means educating children at home instead of sending them to public or private schools. Nowadays, homeschooling has become popular in many countries for a variety of reasons. One of them is poor quality of education in public schools and it’s also because private schools are quite expensive. Some parents believe that because they know their child’s strengths and weaknesses, they can teach him or her better. Some parents prefer homeschooling so as to prevent their children from getting into bad company. There is another group of people who choose to educate their children at home because they want them to learn spirit and values of the family and also their religious beliefs. They also think that homeschooling would help in development of strong family bonds(家庭纽带).However, there are some negative effects of homeschooling on students as well as parents. Homeschooling is a full-time job and not fit for parents who have their own careers. It takes a lot of time for parents’ side to make homeschooling a success. Other family members’ responsibilities may also be affected. They may give their full attention to the needs of their children. Besides, a parent may have high educational qualifications, but that does not make him or her a good teacher. Teaching is an art, which requires the ability to understand the needs of the children. It is likely that the parent might have forgotten what he or she has learned, and the curriculum(课程)of the children would also be different. This would make it difficult for the parents to explain the concepts to their children. Parents also have the responsibility of designing the curriculum of students.In today’s world, competition(比赛)is seen in every field, and school prepares children to face these competitions. However, homeschooling does not give the children a chance to compare with other kids. They will also not be aware of where they stand in educational position among their classmates. This may affect their future lives. Education is not the only thing that the children need to become successful human beings. It is necessary thatthey learn to communicate in the society, and public school provides them with such an environment, where they meet many people. Schools also provide children with a chance to take part in variety of activities to improve their overall development.It is true that it has many benefits, but one must realize that school teaches children skills to face and survive.

But, now, after one semester as a college student, many of my old ideas have ___2___ completely.I used to imagine bossy upper-classmen, for example. I thought they would be know-it-all rulers of the campus who ___3___ freshmen for fun. I pictured being ___4___ to the wrong classrooms, being ignored. But, in fact, the upper-classmen turned out to be quite ___5___. They offered to help me and inspired me to ___6___ my tough courses.The upper-classmen weren’t the only ones I worried about. I was also ___7___ about the other freshmen. I was afraid they might think I was too fat, too shy, too ___8___, or even too dumb to bother with. ___9___, I was wrong. When I finally got to college, I discovered that most students felt exactly as I did. They were as uneasy with me as I was with them, and as we started to open up, we began to ___10___ one another. We began to become curious about each other’s backgrounds and interests; the differences among us actually became ___11___.I changed my mind about other things too. I had ___12___ homework to be a book-filled nightmare, which would keep me from meeting ___13___ dates.

By knowing how other members of your team and organization think—and by others knowing how you think—everyone can be more productive. So how should you evaluate how you and your team think? After a lot of trial-and-error, we developed a three-step method that delivers practical and meaningful results.Focus. Do you tend to pay the most attention to ideas, process, action, or relationships? For example, in the morning do you think about the problems you need to solve, the plans you need to make, the actions you need to take, or the people you need to see? This isn’t about picking one to the exclusion(排除)of the other. It’s about where your focus naturally lands.Orientation(方向). A good way to identify your orientation is thinking about what tends to bother you in meetings. Are you more likely to complain about getting dragged into the weeds or about things being too general and not specific enough? These dimensions are complementary(补充的)to personality, skills, and traditional roles.Combination. By combing these two dimensions you can know about the thinking style at work in whatever context or setting you chose. When you know your thinking style, you know what naturally energizes you, why certain type of problems are challenging or boring, and what you can do to improve in areas that are important to reaching your goals. Once you know your style, it helps to share it with others, and have others share theirs with you. In this way, your thinking style becomes a useful tool—a kind of social currency—for the team. Imaging you put together a team to work on a new initiative(行动). Wouldn’t you like to know who is energized by big-picture strategy discussions and who finds them frustrating? Who likes to work on the details of the execution? And who is energized by managing the team dynamics?The landscape of business is changing rapidly, and we have to find new and better ways to connect and communicate. We all want to work better together, the challenge is actually making it happen. Understanding collaboration(合作)through the way of thinking rather than doing is a practical and powerful step forward.。
