10．Trust is in rare supply these days．People are having trouble trusting each other，according to an AP-GFK poll conducted in November 2013，which found that Americans are suspicious of each other in their everyday life．Only one-third of Americans say most people can be trusted-down from half who felt that way in 1972．A record high of nearly two-thirds says"you can't be too careful"in dealing with people in 2013．
This can be carried over into the workplace，where employees want their leaders to be more trustworthy．Employees have grown tired of unexpected outcomes resulting from the lack of preparation．They want to be informed of any change management efforts before-not after the fact．Employees desire to know what is expected of them and be given the opportunity to better themselves，rather than be told they are not qualified for new roles and responsibilities．
Here are four early warning signs for you to course-correct when employees are having trouble trusting their leaders．
Lack courage
Leaders that don't stand up for what they believe in are difficult to respect and trust．Too many leaders waste too much of their valuable time trying to act like other leaders in the organization-rather than attempting to establish their own identity and leadership style．Employees know that if their leaders are not savvy （精明） enough to move themselves into a position of greater influence，it will make it much more difficult for them to get noticed and discovered as well．When leaders lack the courage to enable their full potential and that of others，it becomes a challenge to trust．
Self-centered
When a leader is only looking out for themselves and lacks any sense of commitment to the advancement of their employees-this shuts off employees quickly．Great leaders are great coaches and are always looking to help their employees grow．When leaders lack any real desire to coach or'guide the career advancement of their employees-it becomes increasingly difficult for employees to trust them．But when leaders are too disruptive （指手畫腳），their employees sense that they are in it for themselves and/or don't trust the talent around them．
Reputation issues
When people begin to speak negatively about their leader，it makes it more difficult for others to trust their intentions．For example，look at what has happened to President Barack Obama since December 2009when his approval rating was 69%．Four years later，Obama's approval rating is at 43%．Many who have followed him for years are now having trouble trusting him．
Every leader must be aware that they are constantly being evaluated and thus they can never grow self-satisfied．When they do，this begins to negatively impact their reputation and the trust employees have in their leadership．
Inconsistent Behavior
People are more inclined to trust those who are consistent with their behavior．Isn't it easy to begin questioning one's judgment when they are inconsistent？When everyone but the leader is on board with a strategy-you begin to wonder if their intentions are to support the organization's advancement or their own．Leaders need to refresh their leadership style before they lose the trust of their employees．
This is what today leaders must consider：how to lead in new ways that focus less on oneself，but more on the betterment of a healthier whole．
Trust between employees and their leaders
Problem（71）Trust has been declining among Americans in their daily life as well as in the workplace．
Employees'hopes for leaders （72）worth/deserving trust●Employees want to be （73）informed to get prepared for any change management efforts in advance．
●Employees desire to know their leaders'expectations of them and want to get （74）opportunities/chances to better themselves．
Warnings for leaders to （75）avoid the breakdown of trust●Don't （76）copy/imitate other leaders and stand up for what you believe in．
●Be （77）committed/devoted/dedicated to helping your employees grow．
●Never let（78）self-satisfaction negatively impact your reputation．
●Behave （79）consistently or your judgment will be questioned．
SuggestionFor leaders，more focus on the betterment of a healthier whole should be taken into （80）consideration/account．

分析 現(xiàn)在的社會(huì)出現(xiàn)了信任危機(jī)，很多職員對(duì)領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人的信任越來越低，文章給出了幾個(gè)警告讓領(lǐng)導(dǎo)避免失去職員的信任．

Choose Wisely The first way to make sure you have a comfortable flight is of course to choose your ticket carefully．（37）BMany flights let you book your seat ahead of time so you'd better check in early or look online early and make sure you get it with the most space for your legs．
Relax （38）DPeople just can't associate being on a plane with being comfortable and they tend to think that the experience is going to be unpleasant．Remember that tossing and turning won't make you any more comfortable and instead just focus on the fact that you are sitting down without a care in the world during at least the period of the flight．（39）GMedication If you do get travel sick then this is of course conductive（有益的）to your comfort．（40）AThe other kind of medication that might help you relax and sleep quickly could be anti-anxiety if you are nervous about flight or sleeping tablets．

1．You probably know you should say"please"and"thank you"at restaurants．You probably know the rules of a library．You know you should respect and be nice to your classmates．（36）C In fact，there are some rules about playing music．
•Keep it down．
（37）D You should not play your music so loud that everyone around you can hear it．Some people might even get angry．Usually，when you play music loud on an MP3player，other people can't hear the words of the song．They just hear a loud sound．No one wants to listen to this．Very loud music can also be bad for your ears．
•Turn it off．
You need to know when to turn your MP3off and put it away．Libraries and schools don't allow MP3players．There are other places，like museums，that don't have rules，but it would be rude to have your MP3player on．Sometimes，it doesn't make sense to listen on your MP3player at an event．（38）E You would miss what is going on and others would wonder why you even came．
•Take one out．
Once in a while it's okay just to take out one earphone and not the other． （39）F It would not be rude to take out one earphone，tell him the way，and put back the earphone and continue listening．You can also do this when you order food at a fast food restaurant or when you answer the telephone and it's not for you．
•（40）A There are times when you need to decide what is best．For example，some people can listen to music on their MP3players when reading books，while others think it is disturbing．In cases like this，you need to do what seems right for you．

A．It's your choice．
B．Don't make your voice disturb others．
C．But do you have music manners？
D．You have to notice the amount of sound of your music．
E．Why would you listen to music at a play，a movie or a sporting event？
F．Imagine you are listening on your MP3player when someone asks you the way．
G．The music is active and inspiring as long as you can feel energetic when you are listening to it．

18．Ways to （Respectfully） Disagree
（36）C．But we can learn a lot from conversations where we don't agree-if we can listen and talk reasonably，that is．
Unfortunately，many of us either shy away completely from disagreements or lose it when things don't go our way．These 5tips can help keep disagreements helpful-whether you're talking to a parent，friend，or anyone else：
（37）B．If you get upset，it can help to remember you're mad at the idea or concept（觀念）your parent （or friend，coach，coworker，etc．） is raising，not the person．
If you've ever been on the receiving end of someone's long speech making you unhappy，you know how valuable using respectful language and behavior can be．So instead of saying what you might be thinking （"That's a stupid idea!"），try："I don't agree，and here's why．"Don't shout，use sarcasm（諷刺），or say derogatory（詆毀的）words． （38）E
Using"you"statements can sound like disagreement．For example，telling your mom or dad，"You always remind me about my chores（瑣事）on Wednesdays when you know I have a lot of homework"has a very different tone from"I'm feeling pressured because I have a lot of homework tonight．Can I do those chores tomorrow？"
Being a good listener is a way of showing that you respect and understand the other person's opinion．That makes it more likely he or she will do the same for you．When the other person is talking，try to stop yourself from thinking about why you disagree or what you'll say next． （39）A．When it's your turn to talk，repeat any key points the other person made to show you listened and heard what was said．Then calmly present your case and why you disagree．
（40）G．Of course，it's a huge challenge to stay calm and reasonable when you feel angry about something-especially if the person you're talking to gets angry．You may need to be the mature （成熟） one who manages the conversation，even if the other person is a parent or someone who should know better．

A．Instead，concentrate on what's being said．
B．Don't make it personal．
C．It's easier to agree than disagree．
D．Stay calm and keep silent till the conversation is completely over．
E．Then you'll have a much better chance of making your idea understood．
F．Disagreement probably means being impolite．
G．This is the most important thing you can do to keep a conversation a possible success．

5．Everyone knows about straight-A students．We see them frequently in TV sitcoms （情景喜劇） and in movies．The kids at the top of the class get there by mastering a few basic techniques that others can learn in an easy way．Thus it is necessary for you to learn the secrets of becoming straight-A students．
    Among the students we interviewed，study times are a matter of personal perference．Some work late at night when it is quiet，whereas others awake early．And there are still others who decide to study as soon as they come home from school when the work is fresh in their minds．All of them agree，however，on the need for study time．"Whatever I was doing，I would find some time every day for studying，"says a top student from New Jersey．
    Being organized is another habit they share in common．McCray，an outstanding student interviewed，runs track，plays football and is in a band．"I was so busy； I couldn't waste time looking for a pencil or missing paper．I kept everything right where I could put my hands on it，"he says．Some students maintain two folders （文件夾）-one for the day's assignment，another for papers completed and graded．However，some students have another system，filing the day's papers in color-coded（顏色編碼的）folders by subject．
    The top students also take good notes while reading the text assignment．In fact，David Cieri，another top student interviewed，uses"my homemade"system in which he draws a line down the center of a notebook，writes notes from the text on one side and those from the lecture delivered by his teacher on the other．Then．He is able to review both aspects of the assignment at once．
    Just before the bell rings，most students close their books，put away papers，whisper to friends and get ready to rush out．But the top students use the few minutes to write a two-or three-sentence summary of the lesson's important points，which he or she scans before the next day's class．
    You can become a straight-A student by following the above secrets．

（36）GI cannot stress how important it is to pay attention to what your teacher teaching you．Take part in class discussions if you have something worthwhile to add．Pay attention during class，especially during lectures．
Taking notes is important．You don't need to write down every word your teacher says but write down what he/she writes on the board，or any special fact you think you might need for a test．（37）BThis way it will help you learn more effectively by actually thinking about what you are writing．

19．Educating girls quite possibly yields a higher rate of return than any other investment （投資）available in the developing world．Women's education may be unusual territory for economists（經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)家），but enhancing women's contribution to development is actually as much an economic as a social issue．And economics（經(jīng)濟(jì)因素），with its emphasis on incentives，provides guideposts that point to an explanation for why so many girls are deprived（剝奪）of an education．
　　Parents in low-income countries fail to invest（投資）in their daughters because they do not expect them to make an economic contribution to the family：girls grow up only to marry into somebody else's family and bear children．Girls are thus seen as less valuable than boys and art kept at home to do housework while their brothers are sent to school-the prophecy （預(yù)言） becomes self-fulfilling，trapping women in a vicious circle （惡性循環(huán)） of neglect．
　　An educated mother，on the other hand，has greater earning abilities outside the home and faces an entirely different set of choices．She is likely to have fewer but healthier children and can insist on the development of all her children，ensuring that her daughters are given a fair chance．The education of her daughters then makes it much more likely that the next generation of girls，as well as of boys，will be educated and healthy．
Few will dispute that educating women has great social benefits．But it has enormous economic advantages as well．Most obviously，there is the direct effect of education on the wages of female workers．Wages rise by 10 to 20 per cent for each additional year of schooling．Such big returns are impressive by the standard of other available investments，but they are just the beginning．Educating women also has a significant impact on health practices，including family planning．
Topic：The significance of female （76）educationin developing countries
Opinion Educating girls in more（77）beneficial/rewarded/valuablethan any other investment．
FamiliesFrom low-income familiesFrom educated mothers'families
AttitudesGirls are of less（78）value/importance/significancethan boys．Development should be for all（79）children．
（80）Practices/MeasuresThere is（81）no/littleinvests ment in daughters．
Girls are made to may at home，（82）doinghousework．		Girls and boys have（83）fair/equal/samechances．
SignificanceEducating girls（84）contributes/leadsto social benefits，conceit advantages and health practices，including faruly planning．
