While working in Southeast Asia in the mid 1990’s, I became a branch manager in a factory. At the beginning, I used human relations principles, such as putting myself into the others place to help gain trust. After a few months, I was told that the factory team members liked and trusted me.

Then the owner, seeing how everyone thought well of me, believed that I could become an instrument of change to carry out his several unpopular programs. The factory members resisted and eventually saw me as a puppet controlled by the owner. The more I insisted that they ‘follow orders’ the more they found ways to weaken the new changes.

Finally, I was replaced by a manager who knew enough to please both masters. Even though the owner did not like the fact that his new changes were not immediately applied, the new manager gained his power by the support received from his team together with an intention to find a way. What I learned was that your team must always see you as supportive of their needs, even to the extent that the owner may not be pleased that you are unable to follow their wishes. At the end of the day, if your people do not follow you then you are no longer in charge and will be replaced.

At first I blamed my boss for putting me in such a position. Then in honest reflection, I began to realize that he had probably hoped that I would have found some middle ground. What I could have done was to first obtain their advice about why they did not wish to follow the new policy changes, and then I should have used my influence with both the owner and team members to find a better way.

Though, in fact it is a painful lesson for me, it has served me well along my career path!

The Internet has opened up a whole new online world for us to meet,chat and go where we’ve never been before.

But just as in face to face communication,there are some rules of behavior that should be followed when on line.1. Imagine how you’d feel if you were in the other person’s shoes.

For anything you’re about to send,ask yourself,“Would I say this to the person’s face?”If the answer is no,rewrite and reread.2. .

If someone in the chat room is rude to you,your instinct (本能) is to fire back in the same manner.But try not to do so.3. If it was caused by a disagreement with another member,try to fix the situation by politely discussing it.Remember to respect the beliefs and opinions of others in the chat room.

4. Offer advice when asked by newcomers,as they may not be sure what to do or how to communicate.When someone makes a mistake,whether it’s a stupid question or an unnecessarily long answer,be kind about it.If it’s a small mistake,you may not need to say anything.Even if you feel strongly about it,think twice before saying anything.Having good manners yourself doesn’t give you license to correct everyone else.5. At the same time,if you find you are wrong,be sure to correct yourself and apologize to those that you have offended.

It is not polite to ask others personal questions such as age,sex,and marital status.Unless you know the person very well,and you are both comfortable with sharing personal information,don’t ask such questions.

A.Everyone was new to the network once.

B.If you do decide to tell someone about a mistake,point it out politely.

C.It’s natural that there are some people who speak rudely or make mistakes online.

D.The basic rule is simple: treat others in the same way you would want to be treated.

E.You should either ignore the person,or use your chat software to block their messages.

F.When you send short messages to a person online,you must say something beautiful to hear.

G.Repeat the process till you feel sure that you’d feel comfortable saying words to a person’s face.

(B)

Lights Out at Bedtime

There are plenty of good reasons to power up a personal desktop or laptop computer in the evening — writing e-mails,chatting on social networks or making purchases over the Internet,for instance.But various studies indicate that people who stare at a PC’s bright monitor shortly before going to bed probably sleep less soundly than they would otherwise because the light seriously affects their natural wake-sleep cycle."They haven't proved it though," says Dieter Kunz,the team's director at Charite's Psychiatric Clinic in St.Hedwig's Hospital in Berlin.

Similarly,exposure to just 10 minutes of normal bathroom lighting is enough to free the sleep hormone melatonin,which regulates people's natural wake-sleep cycle and makes them sleepy at nightfall.

Ten years ago,a team of British and American researchers detected a photo-pigment(光敏色素) in the human eye that signals to the body whether it is day or night,summer or winter.The photo-pigment is especially sensitive to blue light.

"The blue light more or less tells the body,'It's daytime,be awake,'" Kunz says.Monitors have a mostly cold white light content and scientists suspect the photo-pigment may react similarly to it.So the longer people look into the bright light,the more awake they become - and then sleep poorly.

A lot of people have difficulty "switching off" in the evening.About half of the women in Germany and a quarter of the men sleep poorly.

Environmental factors are only one of the possible causes.Job stress as well as personal and health concerns are also the main reasons for their sleep problems.

In addition,electronic objects' standby lights and indicator lamps can be annoying in the dark and affect sleep."Sound scientific evidence is still lacking on this matter," Kunz notes.

According to Kunz,those who cannot go without their computer in the evening should turn down the blue content if possible and lower the brightness somewhat."But nobody does that because,after all,you want to concentrate while working at the computer and the light helps the brain."

1.The passage is mainly about ____________.

A.natural wake-up cycles

B.the effect of light on sleep

C.personal and health concerns

D.functions of computer monitors

2.The underlined word “which” in Paragraph 2 refers to_____.

A.normal bathroom lighting

B.10-minute exposure to lighting

C.the release process of a chemical

D.a(chǎn) chemical affecting one’s sleep cycle

3.We can learn from the passage that ______.

A.the blue light has a calming effect.

B.the photo-pigment tells people day or night

C.women in Germany use computers more often than men

D.it has been proved that standby lights affect people’s sleep
