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 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 .

How men first learned to invent words is unknown, in other words, the origin of language is a mystery. All we really know is that men, unlike animals, somehow invented certain sounds to express thoughts and feelings, actions and things, so that they could communicate with each other; and that later they agreed upon certain signs, called letters, which could be combined to represent those sounds and which could be written down. Those sounds, whether spoken, or written in letters, we call words.
The power of words, then, lies in their association—the thing they bring up before our minds. Words become filled with meaning for us by experience; and the longer we live, the more certain words recall to us the glad and the sad events of our past; and the more we read and learn, the more the number of words that mean something to us increase.
Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which appeal powerfully to our minds and emotions. This charming and telling use of words is what we call literary style. Above all, the real poet is a master of words. He can convey his meaning in words which sing like music, and which by their position and association can move men to tears. We should, therefore, learn to choose our words carefully and use them accurately, or they make our speech silly and vulgar.
小题1:What is the origin of language?| A．It is unknown. | | B．It is a matter that is unclear. | | C．It is a question difficult to answer. | | D．It is a problem not yet solved. |
小题2:Which of the following about a real poet is NOT true?| A．He is less than a master of words. | | B．His style is always charming. | | C．His poem can move men to tears. | | D．He can express his ideas in words that sing like music. |
小题3:Where does the real power of the words come from?| A．From the words themselves. | | B．From their characteristics. | | C．From their peculiarity. | | D．From their association. |
小题4:What is the main idea of the passage?| A．The importance of choosing words. | | B．Where the real power of words come from. | | C．What great writers are like. | | D．We should learn to choose words carefully. |

The income gap between China"s rural and urban residents(居民) has continued to widen during the past few years in spite of rapidly rising rural incomes, Agricultural Minister Sun Zhengcai said here on Wednesday.
The income ratio(比率) between urban and rural residents was 3.28:1 in 2006, against 3.23:1 in 2003, said Sun in his report on the promotion of building a new countryside in 2007. Sun also said the net income of rural residents in different regions also varied widely. The income gap is only one of several problems in rural areas, according to Sun"s report. While listing the achievements in rural areas in recent years, Sun believed that rural development still followed behind urban development.
"We have bigger pressure to ensure the supply of major agricultural products such as grain," he said. "China"s urbanization(都市化) has been speeded up and more rural residents have gone to urban areas," he said.
"In this case, more agricultural producers become farm produce consumers, which created more pressure for supply," he said.
Another problem facing China"s agricultural development is inadequate application of science and technology.
"Only 30 percent of scientific and technological achievements have been applied to agricultural production, which is 40 percentage points lower than developed countries," he said.
Despite increased government spending in rural areas, the infrastructure(基础下部组织) is still poor and easily hit by disasters.
According to Sun, the government spent 431.8 billion yuan ($59.15 billion) on agriculture, rural areas and farmers this year, an increase of 80.1 billion yuan over the previous year.
China set aside 11.38 billion yuan to promote a new rural cooperative medical care system and 27.98 billion yuan to support the new compulsory education mechanism in rural area to ensure that all citizens shared the fruits of China"s reform and opening-up, Sun said.
小题1:Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?| A．Because of the rapidly rising rural incomes, the income gap between China"s rural and urban residents will disappear this year. | | B．The net income of rural residents in different regions is the same. | | C．The government has taken measures to develop the economy in the rural areas. | | D．Because of the rapidly rising rural incomes, the supply of major agricultural products is enough. |
小题2:Can you infer the meaning of the underlined words in paragraph 5?| A．be made full use of | | B．be made little use of | | C．be not made full use of | | D．be made good use of |
小题3:How much is spent on agriculture, rural areas and farmers the previous year?| A．431.8 billion yuan | B．511.9 billion yuan | | C．351.7 billion yuan | D．80.1 billion yuan |
小题4: Which is NOT the problem in rural areas?| A．The income gap | | B．The inadequate application of science and technology | | C．The supply of major agricultural products | | D．China"s urbanization |
