It"s important to keep the right balance between getting along with colleagues and maintaining your privacy. “Communication in the office is tricky and complicated. You can neither spread chatter, nor be too silent and shut yourself off from others,” said Yang Yudan, deputy HR director at P&G.
According to her, there are several safe topics to talk about with colleagues during the break, such as the weather or movies. Women like to talk about makeup and clothing, while men are fond of sports and online games. But discussing your private life, such as relationship, habits or health conditions, is a potential minefield.
Liang Kun, 26, had to resign from his job at a trading company in Guangzhou last week after discussing his income with colleagues during a lunch break. “I didn"t realize it was such a serious issue until a senior member of staff went to find the boss, asking why I got a higher salary than her,” said Liang. “Then our HR told me that according to the employee handbook it is forbidden to talk about salary in the office.” HR expert Yang also reminds us that paychecks are your own business. It is unwise to share this information with others, no matter how close you are.
To summarize, Yang advises office workers to be more aware of the image they project when talking to colleagues, “When you share your personal life, it will be recorded on your invisible resume and may slow down your career progressing.”

解析

小题2:答案:B 推理判断题。根据文章第四段的“...said Liang.‘Then our HR told me that according to the employee handbook it is forbidden to talk about salary in the office.’”可知,Liang Kun从公司辞职是因为他违背了公司的制度。故答案选B项。
小题3:答案:D 写作目的题。文章的最后一段总结全文,根据最后一句的“...‘When you share your personal life,it will be recorded on your invisible resume and may slow down your career progressing.’”可知,作者写本文的目的是提醒公司的员工留意因讨论私人生活而可能带来的负面影响。故答案选D项。
小题4:答案:A 标题归纳题。通读全文可知,作者主要通过列举实例表明,在公共场合谈论私生活可能会带来很多负面影响,告诫公司员工应予以留意。故答案选A项。

It"s a library built with love.
A year ago, shortly after Janey Henriksen saw a Brian Williams report about the Little Free Library organization, a Wisconsinbased nonprofit that aims to promote literacy and build a sense of community in a neighborhood by making books freely available, she announced to her family of four, “That"s what we"re going to do for our spring break!”
Son Austin, now a 10thgrader, didn"t see the point of building a library that resembles a mailbox. But Janey insisted, and husband Peter unwillingly got to work. The 51yearold owner of a ship supply company modified a small wooden house that he"d built years earlier for daughter Abbie"s toy horses, and made a door of glass.
After adding the library"s final touches(装点), the family hung a signboard on the front, instructing users to “take a book, return a book,” and making the Henriksen library, now one of several hundred like it nationwide and among more than 2,500 in the world, the only Little Free Library in Palm Beach County.
They stocked it with 20 or so books they"d already read, a mix of science fiction, reference titles, novels and kids" favorites. “I told them, keep in mind that you might not see it again,” said Janey, a stayathome mom.
Since then, the collection keeps replenishing(补充) itself, thanks to ongoing donations from borrowers. The library now gets an average of five visits a day.
The project"s best payoff, says Peter, are the thankyou notes left behind. “We had no idea in the beginning that it would be so popular.”
小题1:In what way is the library “pedestrianfriendly”?
A.It owns a yellow roof. |
B.It stands near a sidewalk. |
C.It protects book lovers from the sun. |
D.It uses palmtree stickers as decorations. |
A.a visit to Brian Williams |
B.a spring break with her family |
C.a book sent by one of her neighbors |
D.a report on a Wisconsinbased organization |
A.by a ship supply company |
B.on the basis of toy horses |
C.like a mailbox |
D.with glass |
A.It was made by a user of the library. |
B.It marked a final touch to the library. |
C.It aimed at making the library last long. |
D.It indicated the library was a family property. |
A.donate books to the library |
B.get paid to collect books for the library |
C.receive thankyou notes for using the library |
D.visit the library over 5 times on average daily |
When the ____ started, he went to one end of the tightrope, ____ straight at the goal ahead, with open arms, walking slowly step by step to the opposite side of the mountain. Immediately, the audience ____ loud applause.
“If my hands dare tied, do you believe I can ____?” he asked the audience.
____, some people didn"t believe, but in order to know the ___, they said, “We believe you!”
Then, he had his hands tied with a rope and walked past ____.
He looked around and said, “If I"m blindfolded(蒙着眼睛的) with my hands tied, do you ____ believe I can go past?”
This time, the people said without ____, “We believe you!”
In this way, his eyes were ____ with a black cloth. He moved slowly to the tightrope and walked along it inch by inch. This time, he went past once again. The audience burst into ____.
Then, he ____ a child and asked all the people, “If I put him on my shoulders ___ I"m blindfolded with my hands tied as well, do you still believe I can make it?”
All the people replied before ____, “We believe you!”
“I ask you again. Do you really believe me?”
“Yes, we believe you completely!”
Then, he said, “Well then, since you believe me, ____ my child with yours. Who will?”
All of a sudden, the audience fell ____. The silence lasted for nearly ten minutes.
After ten minutes, the acrobatic master said nothing, just put the child on his shoulders and walked past along the tightrope. Sure enough, this time he ____ once more.
Faced with things far from their own ____, people can often make judgments easily and quickly, but once involved in(牵涉) it, most of people “cannot ____ it clearly”. Only those who are really confident, like the master in the tightrope walk, can stay ____ at any time.
