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.

through the dark into the bathroom. I turn on the light and put on my glasses. The house is still as I walk
downstairs while my husband and three kids sleep peacefully. Usually I go for a long run, but today I
choose my favorite exercise DVD, Insanity.Sweat pours down my face and into my eyes. My heart
races as I force my body to finish each movement. As I near the end of the exercise, I feel extremely
tired, but a smile is on my face. It"s not a smile because the DVD is over, but a smile of success from
pushing my body to its extreme limit.
Some people enjoy shopping, smoking, food, work, or even chocolate. But I need exercise to get
through each day. Some shake heads when they see me run through the town. Others get hurt when I
refuse to try just one bite of their grandmother"s chocolate cake. They raise their eyebrows, surprised
by my "no thank you," or by my choice to have a salad. Over the years, I have learned it"s okay to
just say "no." I shouldn"t feel sorry for refusing food that I don"t want to eat.
So what drives me to roll out of bed at 5:00 a. m.? What gives me the reason to just say no to ice
cream? Commitment. A commitment to change my life with a way that reduces daily anxiety, increases
selfconfidence and energy, extends life and above all improves my body shape. This is the point where
a smile appears on my face as I look at myself in the mirror or try on my favorite pair of jeans that now
fit just right. It"s through commitment and sweat that I can make a difference within myself inside and
out.

Don"t believe all of the stereotypes(模式化的形象)you may have heard about Americans.
Even the ones that are true in general may not be true about specific individuals or a large part
of the population.For example,although Americans tend to be louder than people from other
cultures(especially at athletic events),many of the people you meet will be quiet and polite.Some
people may be intolerant, but most will be pleasant and welcoming.Remember that American
films and television exaggerate(夸张)in order to generate excitement, and so present a rather
false picture of what life in the United States is really like.Therefore,tourists in the US are not
always on their best behavior.
Americans do tend to be more informal than people from other countries.It is common for
Americans to wear casual clothing to school and to greet professors by first name.However,
good manners and politeness are always appreciated.If you are polite, and dress a little more
formally than your American friends, it will not be poorly thought of.
However,some businesses require their employees to wear a uniform or a suit.It would be
improper to wear a Tshirt and blue jeans to a job interview.Some of the more prestigious
restaurants require a coat and a tie.Americans tend to dress up for cultural events(the opera,
theater and ballet)and to dress down for athletic events.Formal wear is required at weddings
and funerals, or any other event with religion.If you rely on the stereotypes,you will likely put
yourself into an embarrassing situation.
B. you should not believe the stereotypes you may have heard about Americans
C. none of the stereotypes you may have heard about Americans should be believed
D. none of the stereotypes you may have heard about Americans should not be believed
B. visitors to America
C. American students
D. American filmmakers
B. people who are polite are welcome
C. casual clothing makes others uncomfortable
D. American students are impolite to their teachers
B. it is good manners to wear blue jeans to a wedding
C. Americans usually wear formal clothes in a theater
D.to dress formally makes others feel you are not easy to get on with
longer than they__1__.Yet, all living things still show the__2_of aging, which will eventually__3__death.
Aging is not a disease, but as a person passes maturity (成熟期), the cells of the body and the__4__
they form do not function as well as they__5__in childhood and teenage years. The body provides less
__6__against disease and is more__7__to have an accident.
A number of related causes may__8__to aging. Some cells of the body have a fairly long life, but they
are not__9__when they die. As a person ages, 10 of brain cells and muscle cells decreases. 11
body cells die and are replaced by new cells. In an aging person the 12 cells may not be as workable
or as capable 13 growth as those of a young person.
Another 14 in aging may be changes within the cells 15 . Some of the protein chemicals in cells are

changes in the cells. Some complex cell chemicals, such as DNA and RNA, store and 19 information
that the cells need. Aging may affect this 20 and change the informationcarrying molecules so that they
do not transmit the information as well.

| Is there something that you"ve always wanted to try but just never had the time? Well, make plans to try it now since you are on summer vacation. Not all vacations call for taking a tour bus to take photos of famous landmarks. Some vacations allow you plenty of opportunities to learn. The most difficult aspect of a learning vacation may be choosing one because the possibilities are endless. If you enjoy cooking, various companies can take you to Italy, France, Spain, Mexico or even Peru. Once there, you can learn to prepare the local cuisine(烹饪). Trips are often planned to fit in with local food festivals or special events. The term “learning vacation” often brings language to mind.The best way to learn a language is in an environment where it"s spoken. Study Spanish, French or English. Or attempt a more unusual language like Polish, Estonian or Thai. You"ll be able to learn about the country and absorb the culture at the same time. If you are fond of sports, you can polish your skills or learn new ones. Golf and tennis schools welcome players of all levels. If you want a bigger thrill, you can learn to surf, go climbing or race cars. It"s even possible to learn the art and techniques of bull fighting while on vacation! You can also discover our inner artist. Many places offer painting classes in different mediums. The scenic locations of the schools offer plenty of subjects that provide inspiration for practice. If you prefer capturing the world on film, take a photography vacation. Travel with a small group to photograph beautiful animals or scenery. You can also practise your technique on people or at historical sights. Once you decide on a vacation, choose a company carefully. Request names of recent customers you can contact, and then ask them for an evaluation. The more you know before you go, the better prepared you"ll be. Then go out and learn something! | |||
