26、 When we think of leadership, we often think of strength and power. But what are these really, and how do they operate?
Leadership today is not about forcing others to do things. If this is even possible, it is short-term, and tends to backfire. If you order someone to do something against their will, they may do it because they feel they must, but the anger they feel will do more harm in the long-term. They will also experience fear.
Fear causes the thinking brain to shut down, making the person unable to function at his or her best. If they associate you with this emotion of fear, they will become less functional around you, and you will have succeeded in not only shooting yourself in the foot, but possibly making a very good employee or partner unable to perform effectively. Fear has no place in leadership.
The way we influence people in a lasting way is by our own character, and our understanding and use of emotion. We can order someone to do something, which may be part of the work day; or we can employ them at the emotional level, so they became fully devoted to the projects and provide some of their own motivation (积极性). Today’s work place is all about relationships. Anyone works harder in a positive environment in which they’re recognized and valued as a human being as well as a worker. Everyone produces just a bit more for someone they like. Leaders understand the way things work. They know the pay check is not the single most motivating factor (因素) in the work life of most people.
The true strength of leadership is an inner strength that comes from the confidence of emotional intelligence---knowing your own emotions, and how to handle them, and those of others. Developing your emotional intelligence is the single best thing you can do if you want to develop your relationships with people around you, which is the key to the leadership skills.
【1】The underlined phrase “shooting oneself in the foot” means _____ in this passage.
A.throw or walk in a specific direction or towards a specific objective
B.to grow forth (向前) from the ground
C.to move or pass suddenly or swiftly
D.to injure or harm one's own interests
【2】An employee may have a feeling of fear in the work place when ___.
A.he cannot work at his best
B.he is forced to do things
C.he feels his brain shut down
D.he thinks of his work as too heavy
【3】Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A.People tend to associate leadership with fear.
B.Working conditions affect people’s physical health.
C.Smart people are more functional in the work place.
D.Good relationship is the key to business success.
【4】To positively influence employees, a leader should first of all ____.
A.develop his own personality
B.provide better suggestions
C.give his employees a pay raise
D.hide his own emotion of fear
【5】Good leadership is mainly seen in a leader’s ability to_____.
A.provide a variety of project for employees
B.help raise employees’ living standards
C.deal wisely with employees’ emotions
D.give employees’ specific instructions(指导)
27、 Which hand do you use to write your name? Which foot do you use to kick a ball? You probably use the same hand or foot. That's called your dominant side.
About 90 percent of humans are right-handed. Scientists want to know whether other animals also have dominant sides. So they give simple challenges to zoo animals and pets.
At first, chimpanzees(大猩猩) appeared to be left-handed. Dr. Hopkins watched chimpanzees as they went “ants fishing", using sticks to pull ants out. Most of the chimps did the job with their left hand. However, when chimpanzees ate butter from a narrow pipe, they tended to use the left hand to do the easy part (hold the pipe) and a finger on the right hand to do the hard part (reach in for the treat).
Does that mean chimpanzees are left-handed for some tasks and right-handed for others? That's not likely. Dr. Hopkins says the chimps may have used the weaker hand to pull out the ants and the dominant hand to hit the insects and put them in mouths.
But how about other animals? Dr. Wells wondered if cats are right- or left-pawed. At the beginning. he gave the cats the simple task of moving across the floor. The cats showed no preference; they used either paw. Dr. Wells also made the cats perform given movements. The researcher dropped a small fish into a can and wrote down which paw each cat used to fish out the treat. All of the female cats except one used the right paw. For males, 19 out of 21 used the left paw. Dr. Wells tested each cat many times to make sure it really preferred to use one paw instead of the other.
【1】In Paragraph 1, the word "dominant" can be replaced by “_______”.
A.gentle B.powerful C.opposite D.unique
【2】What can we learn from Dr. Hopkins' research?
A.Chimpanzees use right hands for tough tasks.
B.About 10 percent of humans are left-handed.
C.Chimpanzees get the treat with the weaker hands.
D.Left hands are more important in getting the butter out.
【3】Dr. Wells probably agreed that ________.
A.moving across the floor was a challenging task for cats
B.various foods were necessary to carry out a scientific study
C.eats used different paws each time in the repeated tests
D.male and female cats had the opposite choice to get the fish
【4】As to "whether other animals also have dominant sides", the two scientists _______.
A.saw eye to eye with each other
B.discovered it was not a simple yes or no
C.raised different animals to seek the truth
D.worked together to perform experiments

29、Welcome to Santa Cruz County. It is home to rough coastline and it’s the main destination for many hiking adventurers!
California King Tides Are Coming!
California King Tides are coming back to Santa Cruz County, and this season you have even more opportunities to enjoy these impressive tides! These naturally occurring and predictable events are when the highest and lowest tides hit our shores and create an even more dramatic coastline.
Winter Wildlife Getaway!
This season marks the start of the best wildlife watching on the California coast! Migrating whales and many special birds make December and January the perfect time for a wildlife adventure.
Magic Monarch Butterfly!
In Santa Cruz, we like to celebrate all creatures great and small, especially those of the migrating variety. On one hand, we are attracted by the sight of a whale surfaceing from the depths of the sea and, on the other hand, we delight in the attractive magic of a flying monarch butterfly.
County Shores!
Explore Santa Cruz County shores, and you’ll delight in rock y tide pools full of unique sea creatures. While exploring local tide pools, remember to have respect for your surroundings.
Care & Safety
Never turn your back on the ocean. Sleeper waves are a real phenomenon, and can sweep you away at any time.
We know how wonderful it might be to touch a plant or catch a fish from its waters, but disrupting tide pool life harms its inhabitants. Even if you think you’re saving a fish that appears to be pushed out of water, it’s best to leave it be. The tide will finally return it.

30、Dinnie, a cute little dog, will always be in my mind. I worked _______ a volunteer at the vet’s clinic(诊所) this summer holiday, so I'd seen _______ dogs.
