When milk arrived on the doorstep When I was a boy growing up in New Jersey in the 1960s, we had a milkman delivering milk to our doorstep.His name was Mr.Basille.He wore a white cap and drove a white truck. As a 5yearold boy, I couldn"t take my eyes off the coin changer fixed to his belt.He noticed this one day during a delivery and gave me a quarter out of his coin changer. Of course, he delivered more than milk. There was cheese, eggs and so on.If we needed to change our order, my mother would pen a note- "Please add a bottle of buttermilk next delivery" -and place it in the box along with the empty bottles.And then, the buttermilk would magically(魔术般)appear. All of this was about more than convenience. There existed a close relationship between families and their milkmen. Mr. Basille even had a key to our house, for those times when it was so cold outside that we put the box indoors, so that the milk wouldn"t freeze. And I remember Mr. Basille from time to time taking a break at our kitchen table, having a cup of tea and telling stories about his delivery. There is sadly no home milk delivery today. Big companies allowed the production of cheaper milk, thus making it difficult for milkmen to compete(竞争). Besides, milk is for sale everywhere, and it may just not have been practical to have a delivery service. Recently, an old milk box in the countryside I saw brought back my childhood memories. I took it home and planted it on the back porch(门廊). Every so often my son"s friends will ask what it is. So I start telling stories of my boyhood, and of the milkman who brought us friendship along with his milk. | |||

请认真阅读下列短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入最恰当的单词. 注意:每个空格只填1个单词. In addition to selfawareness, imagination, and conscience, it is the fourth quality-independent will-that really makes effective selfmanagement possible. It is the ability to make decisions and choices and to act in agreement with them. It is the ability to act rather than to be acted upon, to actively carry out the program we have developed through the other three qualities. The human will is an amazing thing. Time after time, it has overcome unbelievable difficulties. The Helen Kellers of this world give dramatic(给人深刻印象的) evidence to the value, the power of the independent will. But as we examine this quality in the context of effective selfmanagement, we realize it"s usually not the dramatic, the visible, the onceinalifetime, upbythebootstraps(自立自强的) effort that brings lasting success. This special ability comes from learning how to use this great quality in the decisions we make every day. The degree to which we have developed our independent will in our everyday lives is measured by our personal honesty.Honesty is, fundamentally, the value we place on ourselves. It"s our ability to make and keep promises to ourselves, to "walk our talk". Effective management is putting first things first.While leadership decides what "first things" are, it is management that puts them first, daybyday, momentbymoment.Management is discipline (training to be selfcontrolled), carrying it out. Discipline obtains from belief-belief in a set of values, belief in an overriding(最主要的) purpose, to a longterm or shortterm goal that must be carried out. In other words, if you are an effective manager of yourself, your discipline comes from within; it is a function of your independent will. You are a follower of your own deep values and their source.And you have the will, the quality to control your feelings and moods rather than depend on others or have your work half done. |
