Team Building
Means More than Throwing a Few People Together
“Teamworking”
is
found
everywhere
within
just
about
every
can't
get
away from “teams” that
are supposed to be able to create something than
is greater th
an the sum of
its parts. Or so the theory goes.
There are five measures that need to be
taken before you can get the most out of a
team
:
1
.
________
There must be a clear reason for the
team to exist. And all the members should realize
the
value and significance of what they
are going to do. What they are hoping to achieve
should be
something achievable but at
the same time tough and inspiring enough to
attract the members and
keep
their
motivation
alive.
What
is
more,
they
should
also
be
well
prepared
for
the
possible
difficulties they
may come across in the process.
2
.
________
Team members must be able to express
their opinions freely without fear of being
criticized,
and they must have the
feeling that their suggestions will be taken is
an important
point because the team may
need to resolve some complex or thorny issues. For
example, it may
discuss a sensitive
topic. Should they keep their conclusion within
the team or share it with other
employees? This is an issue in itself
that all the members should agree on and frank
discussion is
required.
3
.
________
It
is
easy
to
think
that
a
junior
team
member
may
have
less
to
contribute
than
more
experienced ones. This
is not only
demoralizing or
discouraging, it also makes no
sense
—
people
that
have nothing to contribute should not have been
selected for the team in the first place. Since
they
have
become
members
of
your
team,
you
need
to
make
sure
that
each
of
them
has
an
opportunity to add his or her thoughts
to discussions.
4
.
________
Disagreements are natural and, in fact,
debate and discussion should be encouraged. A team
made up only of
“yes men” can
make disastrous decisions that few people honestly
agreed
with in the first place.
Consequently, there should be rules on how lengthy
disagreements should
be handled. For
example, team meetings may not be the most
appropriate place for a discussion
that
involves only two people
,
so<
/p>
“
under-
the-
table
”
method may be
effective.
5
.
________
Most high-
performing teams
are well organized. A good organizer should be
able to play to
individuals' strengths
and help them overcome their weaknesses. It should
be someone who can
act as a promoter
and a constant reminder of what the team needs to
achieve. He must, above all,
be skilled
in sharing responsibility and setting tasks to
others coaching them to achieve tasks, and
providing constructive feedback on how
the tasks went.
Team building isn't as
simple as just throwing a few people together. It
requires much more,
but
motivating
people
is
most
essential.
Successful
teamworking
is
not
marked
by
how
much
progress
the team makes toward its goals, but by how
confidently each of its members completes
his or her assigned tasks with a sense
of achievement and pride.

A. A sense of humour is not an inborn
ability.
B. A sense of humour can be
developed in our life.
C. A sense of
humour helps us from several aspects.
D. A sense of humour means more than
telling jokes.
E. A sense of humour can
be expressed in many ways.
F. A sense
of humour helps people to better enjoy life.
1
.
________
As awareness of the benefits of humour
increases, most of us want to get all the laughs
we
can. It seems that almost every day
there is another new discovery about the power of
humour to
help us physically,
mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.
Every system of the body
responds to
laughter in some important or positive
way.
2
.
________
Many people mistakenly believe that we
are born with a sense of humour. They think that
when it comes
to a sense of
humour. “either you have got it or you don't.”
This is false! What is
true, however,
is that the ability to laugh and smile is actually
something we are born with. For
example, we laugh when we are tickled
under the arm, even without thinking about how to
react.
3
.
________
The
parts
of
the
brain
and
central
nervous
system
that
control
laughing
and
smiling
are
mature at birth in human infants, but
that is not the same thing as having a sense of
humour. (After
all, when a baby laughs
in his small bed we don't rush over and say,
“
That kid has a great sense
of
humour
!”
)Your
sense
of
humour
is
something
you
can
develop
over
a
lifetime.
Don't
be
nervous before others and
try to laugh at
yourself
—
then you will make
them laugh too.
4
.
________
Humour includes a lot more than
laughing and joke telling. Many people worry
needlessly
that they do not have a good
sense of humour because they are not good joke
tellers. More than
jokes, a sense of
humour requires being willing and able to see the
funny side of life's situations as
they
happen. In fact, one of the best
definitions(
定义
)of a sense of
humour is “the ability to see the
nonserious element in a
situation.”
5
.
________
There may be a thousand different ways
to express your sense of humour, but joke telling
is
only one of those ways. As more is
discovered about how humour benefits our life,
more people
will be able to see and
enjoy the humour when they are in a difficult
situation. Life depends on air,
food
and water, but it is made easier to live with a
good sense of humour.

1
.
________
When speaking about renewable energy,
we are talking about power which gets
its energy
from resources which will
not be diminished from the use. Renewable energy
is a substitute for
the nonrenewable
energy of fossil fuel.
2
.
________
One
fundamental
advantage
of
renewable
energy,
and
environmentalists'
favorite
reason
to
promote its use, is that
there are no greenhouse gases or other pollutants
that give out as there are
with the
burning of fossil fuels. Renewable energy, or
solar, water and wind power, are certainly
not new although they have received
much attention recently because they will not
cause pollution.
Environmentally
friendly power sources such as wind, solar and
water power have been used in
both
developing and developed countries for a long time
because they are cheap and clean, but
they have yet to be used as a primary
source of energy for any big urban area.
3
.
________
The
generation
of
power
from
renewable
energy
sources
has
become
somewhat
more
common
in
recent
times
as
people
have
increasingly
become
aware
of
issues
such
as
climate
change due to fossil fuel by products
and the political or social worries about nuclear
power. There
are
numerous
countries
and
non-
profit,
environmentally
conscious
organizations
that
are
supporting the use of
renewable energy.
4
.
________
The flow of renewable energy has to do
with naturally occurring phenomena. Tides,
sunlight,
wind and heat are all created
by geothermal events and all are sources of
energy. Each of these
sources of energy
has unique characteristics related to where and
how we can use them.
5
.
________
Most technology which transforms
renewable energy into power which we can use is
solar
powered either directly or
indirectly. The atmospheric system of the earth
keeps balance so that
the heat which
spreads out into space is equal to the amount of
radiation received from the sun.
The
quantity of energy contained in the atmosphere
approximates the earth's climate. The bodies
of water of the earth, or its
hydrosphere, absorb much of the radiation which is
received from the
sun. And much of that
absorbed radiation is in the lower latitudes
surrounding the equator.

A. Causes of overusing fluoride (
氟化物
)
B. Negative effects of fluoride
C. Safe use of fluoride
D.
The expert's background information
E.
No need to worry about fluoride poisoning
F. Solutions to improper use of
fluoride
I have heard that fluoride can
help stop dental decay, but I recently read that
it is poisonous.
Which of these is
true? How can children use fluoride safely?
1
.
________
This question is answered by Dr Marcia
M. Rich who practises general dentistry in
Newholt.
She is also a lecturer at the
University and a writer for the monthly magazine
Your Dentist Cares.
2
.
________
My answer to the first question is to
stress that fluoride works well and is safe when
users
follow
instructions.
Young
children
have
a
tendency
to
swallow
toothpaste,
which
is
why
they
should only have a tiny amount of
fluoride toothpaste on their toothbrush. If this
simple measure
is taken, parents can be
confident that children will be protected against
tooth decay, and come to
no harm.
3
.
________
Almost
all
medicines
have
a
negative
effect
—
or
even
be
deadly
—
if
they
are
not
taken
as
directed. So you are
right
—
fluoride can be
poisonous if it is swallowed in very large
quantities. It
is for the reason that
fluoride supplements can only be obtained on
prescription from the doctor or
dentist. Please be assured that
fluoride overdoses are
rare
—
in fact, I have never
heard of any fatal
incidents related to
fluoride poisoning.
4
.
________
Scientific studies have shown that
fluoride can help to prevent
cavities(
牙洞
) as long as it
is
used correctly. If fluoride is
abused, there is a risk of illness or even deaths
in extreme cases. If a
deadly
amount
of
fluoride
is
taken,
immediate
first-
aid
could
save
a
life.
A
person
who
has
swallowed a large amount
of fluoride will probably start vomiting. If not,
the patient should be
given milk or
antacid and taken to the nearest hospital for
emergency treatment.
5
.
________
Taking
too
much
fluoride
while
teeth
are
growing
can
lead
to
a
condition
called
dental
fluorosis. The most likely cause is the
swallowing of fluoride toothpastes by young
children. It can
also be caused by
inappropriate use of fluoride drop or other
fluoride supplements, for example
when
fluoride is already present in drinking water.

New Orleans, the city of Louisiana, is
one of the most colorful and interesting places in
North
America. It is well known for its
multicultural cuisine(

birthplace of jazz, the one music style that the
USA can lay
claim to inventing.
2

________
The city was founded in 1718, at a time
when France owned that part of North America. Part
of its diversity results from the fact
that it was subjected to many different
influences. France sold
Louisiana to

________
Having the right security products
equipped in a home can get rid of home invasion,
theft and
injury. Home security
products should be hidden somewhat and not out in

Taxi drivers have to be rough and rude fellows to
