Every day we meet people in a number of business and social situations. And the way we meet and greet them creates an impression. It"s important to do so in a proper way, no matter whether you are introducing yourself to someone, or introducing two people to each other. To keep you aware of this, we have gathered tips on how to make a proper introduction. ★ Always stand when making an introduction. When you are seated and someone comes up to greet you, make the effort to stand up. By doing this, you show respect for yourself and for the other person. ★ Always maintain eye contact while making an introduction. Many people are not aware of the value of this simple action. When you make eye contact you are giving a confident image. ★ Always introduce a person of lesser authority to one of greater authority. The most important thing to rememher is to say the most important person"s name first. ★ In a situation where rank is unimportant, _____. A man is presented to a woman and a younger woman to an older woman. What if you find yourself in a situation where you have forgotten the other person"s name? Start with a handshake and reintroduce yourself. By doing this, you will usually cause the other person to do the same. However, if the other person does not take your suggestion, it is OK simply to apologize and let the person know that you cannot remember her or his name. This is not the ideal situation, of course, but it does happen to all of us. The other person should he forgiving. |

There"s nothing wrong with tuming your hobby into a business. We"re supposed to enjoy our work, right? Just turn something we already enjoy into our career. Whether you"re into painting or building furniture, you know you feel proud of the result of your efforts. However, you should first explore the concept and do your market research and other planning. Don"t forget to consider what your day-to-day work life would look like. There is one very positive aspect of doing a business plan _____. You may be highly motivated to do some planning and research, since this relates to an activity you know well and enjoy, and you therefore may be more likely to do the necessary planning. This is a big plus! And once you see how to do this research, you may be more likely to do it for other ideas you will come up with. Something I"ve learned over the years is that creating a business out of the first few ideas you come up with isn"t a good goal. If you are brainstorming ideas for your new career path, I suggest you list lots of ideas and choose one or two that have the most potential to explore, as well as those that really draw you in. The evolution of your ideas is the best reason to explore those first ideas. The best careers come from exploring the first ideas and finding out what will, and what won"t, work for you. Make sure the business plan you are creating based on your hobby should be one that you will enjoy and that will add to your quality of life. Then start with your hobby, and enjoy the adventure of finding out where you will end up! |

Every country has many good people who help to take care of others. Some high school and college students in the United States often spend many hours as volunteers in a hospital, orphanage (孤儿院) or home for the aged. They read books to the people who must be in these places or they just visit them and play games or listen to their problems. Other young people volunteer to collect food or money, or they work in the homes of people who are sick or old. They paint, clean or repair their houses, do their shopping or mow their lawns. There is a group of volunteers to meet almost every need. For boys who no longer have fathers there is an organization called Big Brothers. College students and other men take these boys to baseball games or on fishing trips and help them to know about things that boys usually learn from their fathers.

Some of these clubs have movies or organize short tnps to the mountains, the beaches, museums or other places of interest.

Stay Cool, and Don"t Get Burned Heat causes more pain and injury at theme parks than all the world"s roller coasters (过山车) combined. Water is your best friend in helping p.revent heat-related illnesses in theme parks. Choose water rather than juice and soft drinks whenever you get thirsty. Put on a waterproof sunscreen before you enter the park. A hat or sunglass- es can help, too. Stay In to Stay Safe On any theme park ride, keep your rear (后部) on the seat, your hands on the grab bar (扶手) and your feet and knees inside the car. If there is no grab bar, keep your hands on your lap (膝部). If you are riding a "floorless" coaster, relax your legs. Don"t kick them out to the side or front.

Speaking of what sort of smartness is most desirable in human conduct, a friend of mine has this to say: Real stnartness must be something that can be practised repeatedly and infinitely. Then, he goes on to relate this event: In one European country there resided some Lebanese. Upon learning that ambulance rides there are provided free to patients in emergency cases, they rented an apartment near a hospital. Each time they wanted to go home, they just pretended to be sick, calling for an ambulance. On arrival at the hospital, they said now that they felt much better and had no need of any treatment. The next moment saw them leaving, safe and sound, to their apartment. Their "being-clever" affords them only short-lived pleasure and joy; it could not he practised repeatedly, still less infinitely. Such smartness is based on "too clever to be wise". Once seen through, they will lose the benefits they profited by playing dirty tricks. They will suffer the impairment of their own image and reputation as well as that of those who are tied with them by blood or by common interests. When a person has done something to the discredit of one"s own image and reputation, it will surely involve others related to him in one way or another. Among those inflicted most hy what folly (愚蠢) he may have done are those who, to him, have been close in relations and dear in sentiment. Additionally, whether one"s act is wise or unwise, rather the summit of wisdom, depends on the result of the act; if _____, then the more often he does it, the better will he be believed. While repeating that act, he is not only earning himself an admirable image but also contributing to the fine impression and reputation of his relatives, his friends, his hometown and his motherland. |

Work is a very important part of life in the United States. When the early Protestant immigrants (新教徒移 民) came to this country, they brought the idea that work was the way to God and heaven. This attitude, the Protestant Work Ethic (道德规范), still influences America today. Work is not only important for economic benefits, the salary, but also for social and psychological need the feeling of doing something for the good of the society. Americans spend most of their lives working, being productive. For most Americans, their work defines them: they are what they do. What happens then, when a person can no longer work? Almost all Americans stop working at age sixty-five or seventy and retire. Because work is such an important part of life in this culture, retirement can be very difficult. Retirees often feel that they are useless and unproductive. Of course, _____; but leaving one"s job, whatever it is, is a difficult change, even for those who look forward to retiring. Many retirees do not know how to use their time or they feel lost without their jobs. Retirements can also bring financial problems. Many people rely on Social Security checks every month. During their working years, employees contribute a certain percentage of their salaries to the government. Each employer also gives a certain percentage to the government. When people retire, they receive this money as income. These checks do not provide enough money to live on, however, because prices are increasing very rapidly. Senior citizens, those over sixty-five, have to have savings in the bank or other retirement plans to make ends meet. The rate of inflation (通货膨胀)is forcing prices higher each year. Social Security checks alone cannot cover these growing expenses. The government offers some assistance, medicare and welfare, but many senior citizens have to change their life styles after retirement. They have top spend carefully to be sure that they can afford to buy food, fuel and other necessities. American society is only beginning to be concerned about the special physical and emotional needs of its senior citizens. The government is taking steps to ease the problem of limited income. They are building new housing,offering discounts in stores and museums and on buses, and providing other services such as free courses, food service, and help with housework. |
