　　Human Networking

　　I knew no computer or technology ever got any of us a raise, landed us that dream job, found us that mentor (良师) who cared deeply for us and our careers or put that special joy in our lives that can only come from relationships with others.

　　All these great things are made possible by a completely different type of networking-human networking. And not the kind that has given “networking” a bad name-that superficial, insincere, manipulative stuff that we all can smell a mile away. No, I’m talking about the true art of networking, based upon respectful and caring relationships that promote mutual success.

　　Relationships

　　Let me start with one of the most fundamental aspects of human relaitionships. For each and every thing you want to achieve in life-whether it’s landing a job,earning a raise or promotion or finding that lifelong romance-there will be at least one person on the other end deciding whether to give you or help you get what you want. Everything we do can only be accomplished through and with other people. Simply put, success, of any kind, requires relationships. Just think of the words of Margaret Wheatley: “Relationships are all there is. Everything in the universe only exists because it is in relationship to everything else. Nothing exists in isolation. We have to stop pretending we are individuals that can go it alone.”

　　If this is the way the universe works, you can see why human relationships and human networks are so important.

　　The most common mistake people make when building relationships for their career success is treating business contacts diffierently from personal friends. Just think for a moment about the people you work with on a professional level who are also close, personal friends. Aren’t they always more forgiving when you slip up and more helpful when you’re in need ? Of course! I guarantee your work will become easier and more joyful if you make more of your business relationships personal.

　　How to do it ? The same way as you make genuine friends. Build trust through intimacy; show them that besides being professional, you're also human. Skip the small talk and go deep into what really matters -your dreams or fears, your children or the business issues that keep you up right at night. And don’t think for a moment that they’ll think less of you . In fact, usually the opposite happens.

　　When I tell people about my humble beginnings-I grew up a country boy in rural, southwestern Pennsylvania, the son of an often unemployed steelworker and a cleaning lady and how it took me so long to overcome my insecurities of being poor and being picked on by kids from more well-to-do families. People don't think less of me. They immediately empathize (感同身受) and feel more endeared to me than ever before. All you have to do is let your guard down and show enough vulnerability to make others comfortable with opening up to you.

　　Also, don’t stop with treating business friends as you treat personal friends. Mix them,too. Invite business contacts to your home and introduce them to your family. Invite a client out to dinner along with an old pal from school and your significant others or a date. Don’t compartmentalize (划分) your personal, profeessional and community lives.Blur the boundaries! You’ll have more fun and do more for all three parts of your life in less time.

　　Planning

　　The more specific you are about what you want to do, the easier it becomes to develop a strategy to accomplish it. Part of that strategy , of course , will be establishing relationships with the people in your universe who can help you get where you’re going. So, first, do some deep introspection (自省) to find your Blue Flame, the thing in life that really lights your fire. Write, pray, whatever you need to do to clear your head and figure this stuff out. I enjoy great results from Vipassana meditation.

　　Once you’ve found your Blue Flame, it’s time to have a RAP, or a Relationship Action Plan. Here’s a simlpe way to get started. Write down your goals and the names and types of people who can help you achieve them. Then, note how you can reach those people and how you can contribute to their success, too. The more specific a plan you have and the more you put your goals out to others, the more everyone will conspire to help you achieve your dreams. On the other hand, if you don’t know what you want or you don’t tell anyone, no one can help you. They can't read your mind.

　　I can’t tell you how many times a friend has called me and said, “Keith, I just became unemployed. I need to start networking; will you teach me how ?” My answer : “No. No. No. You need to start job-hunting! You should have been building relationships for the past 5 or 10 years, so now that you neeed a job, you could make 20 calls and have 5 job offers waiting for you in a week.”

　　Presentation

　　When I give talks to college and graduate students they always ask me, “What are the secrets to success ? What are the unspoken rules for making it big ? Perferably, they’d like my response wrapped up in a tight package and tied with a neat little bow. Why not ? I wanted the same thing at their age.

　　“So you want the inside scoop,” I respond. “Fair enough, I’ll sum up the key to success in one word: Generosity.” The kids are shocked because they think I’m going to give them “netwoking” advice. And when they think of “networking”, they think of a guy holding a martini with one hand and scattering business cards with the other. He’s hell-bent on doing anything it takes to “get to the top”,including climbing on the backs of others.

　　The era of that Networking Jerk is over. I learned that the hard way. Once, a mentor of mine said to me, “ Stop driving yourself and-everyone else -crazy thinking about how to make yourself successful. Strat thinking about how you’re going to make everyone around you successful.”

　　Please, learn from my mistakes and the mistakes of many others. Don’t be a networking jerk. Remember that the NO.1 key to success is generosity. Give your talents, give your constacts and give your hard work to make others successful without ever keeping score.

　　While I would say that your relationships are the most critical piece of your personal brand, before you can develop those relationships you’ve got to know something and have something to say. Just having a brain and an MBA won't get you anywhere anymore. If you want to become more valuable in the marketplace or more intriguing to the world at large, you must develop some deep expertise in your mind and root some higher-order passion in your heart.

Think of the world’s real movers and shakers; they are such because they are about something: Richard Branson-executing the remarkable; the late Princess Diana-helping the unfortunate. They are and were interesting .You can be, too.

　　Strength in Numbers

　　This rule is obviously one no one can follow 100 percent. It’ just a great way to remember to share your passions to invite others into the activities you are already enjoy doing. I really love sharing delicious food, good wine and great company. I aloso bring friends to workouts or to church. You might have similar passions, or you might enjoy doing community service, gardening or watching movies.

　　If you’ll just remember to share your passions, building and deepening relationships will take no extra time than you already devote to your favorite activities, and people will see you in your best light.

　　Just as people lose weight more effectively if they have a workout partner, your ongoing efforts to build relationships will be more successful if you team up. You and your buddy can provide each other support, guidance and motivation. And you’ll always be prepared to try one of my favorite tactics-trading networks. Throw a dinner party together, and you’ll each be responsible for only half the guest list, half the cost and half the effort. But you’ll expand your circle of friends to twice the size, and I guarantee it will be twice the fun!

　　Part Ⅳ Reading Comprehension (Reading in Depth) (25 minutes)

　　Section A

　　Directions:In the section, there is a short passage with 5 questions or incomplete statements. Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words. Please write your answers on Answer Sheet 2.

　　Questions 47 to 51 are based on the following passage.

　　The strain of avian influenza virus that has led to the deaths of 140 million birds and 60 people in Asia in the past two years appears to be slowly acquiring genetic changes typical of the “Spanish flu” virus that killed 50 million people nearly a century ago, researchers said yesterday.

　　How far the “bird flu” virus has traveled down the evolutionary path to becoming a pandemic virus is unknown. Nor is it certain that the much-feared strain, designated as influenza A/H5N1, will ever acquire all the genetic features necessary for rapid, worldwise spread.

　　Nevertheless, the similarities between the Spanish flu virus of 1918 and the H5N1 strain slowly spreading through Asia provide unusually concrete evidence of how dangerous the newer virus is. At least four of its eight genes now contain mutations seen in the deadly strain that circled the globe during and the after World WarⅠ.

　The comparison of the old and new flu viruses is the first practical use of a science use of a science-fiction-like scenario that concluded yesterday with the release of two papers, one by the journal Science and the other by its chief competitor, Nature.

　　After 10 years of work, Taubenberger and his team succeeded in reconstructing the Spanish flu virus, which was responsible for the deadliest epidemic since the Black Death of the Middle Ages. Reborn in the mid-August at a high-security laboratory at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta, the pathogen appears in animal experiments to be as lethal as it was in human 87 years ago.

　　The report came as the United States, many other countries and the World Health Organizatiom are making increasingly urgent preparations for a new flu pandemic. The Department of Health and Human Services is stockpiling antiviral drugs and is buying enough experimental bird flu vaccine to inoculate 20 million people. President Bush ( the former president of America ) said in a news conference this week that he is considering the use of the military to enforce quarantines, if necessary, and that the government’s long-awaited pandemic plan will be released soon.

　　What makes the accomplishment reported yesterday so remarkable is that no intact samples of the Spanish flu virus exist. When the pandemic occurred in 1918 and early 1919— only American Samoa and parts of Iceland appear to have been spared— microbiologists did not know for certain what caused it. ( The influenza virus was not identified until 1933.) Although biologists were later able to deduce the broad family of influenza viruses the 1918 strain came from, its genetic identity was lost.

　　Section B

　　Directions: There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A),B),C) and D).You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre.

　　Passage one

　　Questions 52 to 56 are based on the following passage.

　　For nearly half of my professional career, I was wrong about how to help students achieve. I had the wrong focus, made inaccurate assumptions, used faulty logic, and came to the wrong conclusions about how to increase stundent achievement. Although a high percentage of students persisted in and graduated from the programs in which I worked, they seldom became top achievers.

　　Here is where and how I went wrong . I designed procedures to identify the students who were least prepared so that we could build programs and services that would help more students achieve. I assumed that there were certain levels of preparation that students needed in order to succeed; that if students met or exceeded these preparation levels, everything would take care of itself ; that if students were prepared and met the expectations of their professors, then the normal courses of study and interactions with faculty would be sufficient to help students accomplish their goals.

　　Believing that student success depended on acquiring certain skills and knowledge, I used a combination of standardized tests, institutionally developed instruments, and interview procedures to get a clear picture of whether each student was prepared or underprepared. This was good practice in many ways, but I eventually came to see that I had structured my practice with the tenets of the Deficit Remediation Educational Model, which has been predominant in education for decades and remains the most prevalent approach in use day. This model assumes that the first and most important thing to do is to”fix” the student. Programs and services based on this model are dedicated to helping students achieve by first diagnosing student needs , problems, ignorance, concerns, defects, and deficits. Those who use the Deficit Remediation Educational Model have the challenge of designing classes, workshops, programs, and services to help stundents improve in areas in which they are underprepared. Based on the diagnosis, participation in remedial programs and services is often required. Students are usually prevented from pursuing other areas of study and from pursuing their interests until their “deficits” have been removed and their “problems” have been overcome. Typically, if students are unable to overcome their deficiencies by an established date, they are dismissed or told that they aren’t college material.

　　What would happen if we turned our traditional retention effort on its head ? If we developed programs that helped students assess their strengths and then apply those strengths to their studies ? Of course, we would still assist students in improving their ability to write well or to master mathematics or to read their political science text more efficiently and critically, but all this would be in the context of helping them identify, further develop, and apply what they can already do well. In my experience, this approach is tremendously motivating, contributes to a sense of agency, and helps young people stay in college.

　　Passage Two

　　Questions 57 to 61 are based on the following passage.

　　Dowes Ginting, the most wanted man on Sumatra island, lay dying. He had abandoned the hospital where he had seen his relatives succumb one after anther, and he had fled deep into the

　　mountains,trying to outrun the black magic that he feared had marked him next . For four nights, witnesses recalled, a witch doctor hovered over him in a small clapboard home, resisting the evil spell.

　　Ginting, a tough 32-year-old, had watched disease burn through his family over the previous two weeks, killing six and sickening two others, including himself. International health experts grew increasingly concerned when laboratory tests confirmed they were sickened by bird flu, the largest cluster of the disease ever recorded . But Dowes feared medical treatment more than he did the flu. And so he ran, potentially exposing villagers across the province to the highly lethal virus.

[NextPage]

In the end, the outbreak in May did not predict the start of a worldwise epidemic. But the enormous difficulties that Indonesian and international disease specialists confronted in investigating the outbreak and protecting against its spread raised fundamental questions about whether bird flu could be contained were it converted into a form more easily spread among people.

　　“If this were a strain with sustainable transmission from human to human, I can't imagine how many people would have died, how many lives would have been lost,” said Surya Dharma, chief of communicable disease control in North Sumatra province.

　　Officials from the World Health Organization, drawing on sophisticated computer modeling of a theoretical bird flu outbreak in Southeast Asia, have suggested that an epidemic could be twisted through a rapid containment effort in the affected area, including the right mix of drugs quarantines (隔离，封锁) and other social controls.To succeed, the antiviral drug Tamiflu would have to be distributed to 90 percent of the targeted population, roughly definded as those within at least a three-mile radius of each case. The drug would have to be administered within 21 days from the “timely detection” of the initial case of an epidemic strain. Residents would have to stay home, limit contact with others and take the medicine as prescribed.

　　In the case of the North Sumatra cluster, almost none of this happened, according to extensive interviews with health officers, family members and villagers in several areas of the province. The underlying problem was that most family members and many villagers were convinced that black magic not flu, was to blame.

　　“How can you ever get people to cooperate if they don’t even believe you ?” Dharma said.

　　On the fourth night, unfortunately, Dowes took an abrupt turn for the worse. The medicine man repeated his treatment several times in the night. And before his uncle lugged him to his Suzuki SUV parked out front and set off for the district hospital, Dowes had died.

　　57.Why was Dowes Ginting the most wanted man on Sumatra island ?

　　A)Because doctors in the hospital were waiting to treat his disease.

　　B)Because his relatives wanted to help him outrun the black magic,

　　C)Because the witch doctor wanted to help him resist the evil spell.

　　D)Because his runaway exposed local inhabitants to the scaring flu.

　　58.What was (were) the last thing(s) that the disease specialists expected to meet ?

　　A)The enormous difficulties that they had to be confronted with.

　　B)The basic questions about whether bird flu could be controlled.

　　C)The possibility that the flu might be spread from human to human.

　　D)The laboratory tests result that Ginting was sickened by bird flu.

　　59.All the following measure are required to be taken to contain the bird flu except ___________.

　　D)three weeks is the time limit to send the drug to the area exposed to virus

　　60.What would the residents in North Sumatra province resort to in the case of bird flu ?

　　A)They would turn to a witch doctor. B)They would co-work with experts.

　　C)They would take the prescribed drug D)They would accept a random interview.

　　61.What was to blame for the spread of the disease according to the auther ?
