I

had

worried

myself

sick

over

Simon?s

mother

coming

to

see

me.I

was

a

new

21

, and I gave an honest account of t

he students? work. In Simon?s case, the

grades

were

awfully

low.

He

couldn?t

read

his

own

handwriting.

22

he

was

a

bright student. He discussed adult subjects with nearly adult comprehension. His work

in no way reflected his

23

.

So when Simon?s

mother entered the room, my palms(

手掌心

) were sweating. I

was completely

24

for her lisses on both my cheeks. “I came to thank you,” she

said,

surprising

me

beyond

speech.

25

me,

Simon

had

become

a

different

person.

He

talked

of

how

he

26

me,

he

had

began

to

make

friends,

and

for

the

first time in his twelve years, he had

27

spent an afternoon at a friend?s house.

She wanted to tell me how grateful she was for the

28

I had nurtured(

培养

) in her

son. She kissed me again and left.

I

sat,

stunned

(

惊呆

),

for

about

half

an

hour,

29

what

had

just

happened.

How did I make such a life-changing difference to that boy without

30

knowing

it? What I finally came to

31

was one day, several months before, when some

students

were

32

reports

in

the

front

of

the

class,

Jeanne

spoke

33

,

and to encourage her to raise her voice, L had sai, “Speak up. Simon?s the expert on

this.

He

is

the

34

one

you

have

to

convince,

and

he

can?t

hear

you

in

the

35

of the room.” That wa

s it. From that day on, Simon had sat up straighter,

paid

more

attention,

36

more,

and

became

happy.

And

it

was

all

because

he

37

to be the last kid in the last row. The boy who most needed

38

was

the one who took the last seat that day.

It taught me the most

39

lesson over the years of my teaching career, and I?m

thankful

that

it

came

40

and

positively.

A

small

kindness

can

indeed

make

a

difference.

A

Wealth

starts

with

a

goal

saving

a

dollar

at

a

time.

Call

it

the

piggy

bank

strategy(

策略

). There are lessons in that time-honored coin-saving container.

Any huge task seems easier when reduced to baby steps. I f you wished to climb a

12,000-foot mountain, and could do it a day at a time, you would only have to climb

33 feet daily to reach the top in a year. If you want to take a really nice trip in 10 years

for a special occasion, to collect the $$15,000 cost, you have to save $$3.93 a day. If you

drop that into a piggy bank and then once a year put $$1,434 in a savings account at

1% interest rate after-tax, you will have your trip money.

When I was a child, my parents gave me a piggy bank to teach me that, if I wanted

something, I should save money to buy it. We associate piggy banks with children, but

in many countries, the little containers are also popular with adults. Europeans see a

piggy bank as a sign of good fortune and wealth. Around the world, many believe a

gift of a piggy bank on New Year?s Day brings good luck and financial success. Ah,

but you have to put

something

in it.

Why is

a pig

used

as a symbol of saving? Why not

an elephant

bank, which is

bigger and holds more coins? In the Middle Ages, before modern banking and credit

instruments, people saved money at home, a few coins at a time dropped into a jar or

dish.

Potters(

制陶工

)

made

these

inexpensive

containers

from

an

orange- colored

clay(

黏土

)

called

“pygg,”

and

folks

saved

coins

in

pygg

Middle

English

word

for

pig

was

“pigge”.

While

the

Saxons

pronounced

pygg,

referring

to

the

clay,

as

“pug”, eventually

the two words changed into the same pronunciation, sounding the

“i” as in pig or piggy. As the word became less associated with the orange clay and

more

with

the

animal,

a

clever

potter

fashioned

a

pygg

jar

in

the

shape

of

a

pig,

delighting children and adults. The piggy bank was born.

Originally you had to break the bank to get to the money, bringing in a sense of

seriousness

into

savings.

While

piggy

banks

teach

children

the

wisdom

of

saving,

adults

often

need

to

relearn

childhood

lessons.

Think

about

the

things

in

life

that

require

large

amounts

of

money---

college

education,

weddings,

cars,

medical

care,

starting a business, buying a home, and fun stuff like great trips. So when you have

money, take off the top 10%, put it aside, save and invest wisely.

B

Here is some must-know information from a handbook on how people behave in

doing business in some countries.

In Brazil

Brazilians are warm and friendly. They often stand close when talking and it is

common for them to touch the person on the shoulder. People often greet each other

(particularly

women)

with

light

cheek

kisses.

Schedules

tend

to

be

flexible,

with

business meetings sometimes starting later than planned. But to be safe, be on time.

Meals

can

stretch

for

hours

—there?s

no

such

thing

as

rushing

a

meal

in

Brazil.

Lunches also

can start in

the mid to

late afternoon. Brazilians are social,

preferring

face-to-face communication over mails or phone calls.

In Singapore

Singaporeans shake hands when they meet and often also greet each other with a

small,

polite

bow.

Business

cards

should

be

offered

and

received

with

two

hands.

Arriving late is considered disrespectful. So be on time. Efficiency(

效率

) is the goal,

so

meetings

and

dealings

often

are

fast-paced.

Singaporeans

are

direct

in

their

discussions, even when the subject is about money. Rank is important and authority is

respected.

This

determines

both

people

interact

in

meetings.

For

example,

people

avoid disagreeing outright with someone with a higher rank.

In the United Arab Emirates

In the UAE, status is important, so the most senior or oldest should be greeted

first

with

their titles.

The handshake seems

to

be longer than elsewhere. So, do not

5

pull away the handshake. Women should cover themselves when it comes

to

dress.

Men

also

tend

to

be

covered

from

neck

to

elbows(

肘部

)

and

down

to

the

knees.

People do not avoid entertaining in their homes, but they also hold business meals at

restaurants. Touching or passing food or eating with your left hand is to be avoided.

When meetings are one-to-one, if

your host offers you coffee,

you should refuse.

It

might seem odd, but it is a cultural tradition. Coffee should only be accepted if it is

always set out or presented.

In Switzerland

The Swiss tend to be formal and address each other by last name. They also are

respectful

of

private

lives.

You

should

be

careful

not

to

ask

about

personal

topics.

Punctuality (

守时

) is vital, something that comes from a deep respect for others? time.

Arrive at any meeting or event a few minutes early to be safe. They also have clear

structure in their companies. Higher-ups make the final decisions, even if others might

disagree. Neat, clean dress is expected. The Swiss follow formal table manners. They

also keep their hands visible at the table and their elbows off the table. It is polite to

finish the food on your plate.

46. The passage is mainly about ________.

A. communication types

B. the workplace atmosphere

C. customs and social manners

D. living conditions and

standards

47. Why do Singaporeans avoid arguing with their boss?

A. They put efficiency in the first place.

B. They dislike face-to-face communication.

C. They want to finish meetings as quickly as possible.

D. They are supposed to obey the person of a higher rank.

48. In the UAE, when should you refuse the coffee if it is offered?

A. When greeting seniors.

B. When meeting the host

alone.

C. When attending a presentation.

dining with business

partners.

49. In which country do people care about where to put their hands at the dinner

table?

A. In Brazil.

B. In Singapore.

C. In the United Arab Emirate.

D. In Switzerland.

C

Last

summer,

two

nineteenth-century

cottages

were

rescued

from

remote

farm

fields in Montana, to be moved to an Art Deco building in San Francisco. The houses

were made of wood. These cottages once housed early settlers as they worked the dry

Montana soil; now they hold Twitter engineers.

The

cottages

could

be

an

example

of

the

industry?

s

odd

love

affair

with

“low

technology,”

a

concept

associated

with

the

natural

world,

and

with

old

-school

craftsmanship (

手艺

) that exists long before the Internet era. Low technology is not

virtual

(

虚拟的

)

—

so,

to

take

advantage

of

it,

Internet

companies

have

had

to

get

creative. The rescued wood cottages, fitted by hand in the late eighteen-hundreds, are
