短文Managing Oneself
自我管理
We live in an age full of opportunities: If you are smart enough, and have got
ambition
ambition
/?m?b??n/
n.雄心，抱负
and keep pushing forward, you can rise to the top of your chosen profession, no matter where you started out.
我们生活在一个充满机遇的时代︰无论你从哪里开始，如果你既聪明过人，又有远大抱负，并且勇往直前，那么你就可以在自己所选的职业领域中出类拔萃。
But with opportunity comes responsibility.
But with opportunity comes responsibility.
但是，随着机遇而来的便是责任。此句为倒装句，主语responsibility 置于谓语动词comes之后，with opportunity前置，是为了强调“机遇”，与短文第一句“We live in an age full of opportunities”相呼应。以伴随状语开头（With或Along with放在句首）时，句子可以倒装。例如：With globalization have come many problems. 全球化带来许多问题。
Companies today aren't managing their employees'careers. Professional workers must be their own chief xecutive officers (CEO). It's up to you to
strive
strive
/stra?v/
vi.力争，努力，奋斗
or your place, to keep yourself engaged and
productive
productive
/pr??d?kt?v/
adj.富有成效的；多产的，富饶的
during a working life that may last around 50 years. To do those things well, you'll need to have a deep understanding of yourself —not only what your strengths and weaknesses are, but also how you learn, how you work with others ... you'll need to have a deep understanding of yourself —not only what your strengths and weaknesses are, but also how you learn, how you work with others ...
你需要对自己有一个深刻的了解，不仅仅是你的优缺点，还有你的学习方式，你与人共事的方式......not only ... but also ...用于连接两个表示对等、并列关系的成分，意为“不仅......而且......”，着重强调后者。例如：His speech not only broke the ice, but also aroused everyone's interest. 他的发言不仅打破了冷场, 而且引起了大家的兴趣。not only ... but also ...中的also通常可以省略, 有时甚至but also 一并省略。
what your values are, and where you can make the greatest
contribution
contribution
/?kɑ?ntr??bju??n/
n.贡献
because only when you operate from strength can you achieve true excellence.
... only when you operate from strength can you achieve true excellence.
只有当你充分发挥自己的长处时，你才能做到真正优秀。这是一个倒装句型，only前置于句首，主句中的情态动词can 置于主语you之前，还原后的结构是：you can achieve true excellence only when you ... （只有当......的时候）。当“only+副词/介词短语/状语从句”放在句首时，主句倒装。例如：Only in this way can you learn English well. 只有这样，你才能学好英语。Only after being asked three times did he come to the meeting. 叫了三次，他才来参加会议。Only when he is seriously ill does he ever stay in bed. 只有病得很重时，他才卧床休息。
但是，随着机遇而来的便是责任。现在的公司已经不管理员工的职业生涯，自由职业者必须成为自己的首席执行官(CEO)。在大约五十年的职业生涯中，能否积极上进、勤奋工作、取得成效取决于你自己。要把事情做好，你需要对自己有一个深刻的了解，不仅仅是你的优缺点，还有你的学习方式，你与人共事的方式，你的价值观，以及你能作出最大贡献的领域。因为只有当你充分发挥自己的长处时，你才能做到真正优秀。

语II （1） 动词时态综合笈习练习一、动词的时态在英语中，不同时间发生的动作或情况要用不同的动词形式表示，这种形式叫做〃时态〃。英语动词的时■态可分为十六种，但真正经常应用的，实为其中的十一种，它们是：一般现在时、现在进行时、一般过去时、过去进行时、一般将来时、将来进行时、现在完成时、过去完成时、将来完成时、现在完成进行时、过去完成进行时。电大开放英语3要求掌握的时态为九种，它们是：时态结构举例（write）一般现在时V （动词原形）write/writes 一般过去时V-ed （动词过去式）wrote 一般将来时shall/will + V （动词原形）shall/will write 现在进行时am/is/are + V-ing （现在分词）am/is/are writing过去进行时was/were + V-ing （现在分词）was/were writing现在完成进行时have/has + been + V-ing （现在分词）have/has been writing 现在完成时have/has + V-ed （过去分词）have/has written过去完成时had + V-ed （过去分词）had written将来完成时shall/will + have + V-ed （过去分词）shall/will have written二、学习重难点1. 一般现在时，当主语是单数第三人称时■，作谓语用的动词原形要加词尾-s或-es。例如：Mary comes from England. When does the film begin? 2,英语中不规则动词虽然不多，但它们的使用率却相当高，务必记住。例如：do - did - done, go - went - gone, make - made - made, see - saw - seen 3. ——般现在时与现在进行时的比较：一般现在时表示一般、重复的动作或事情；现在进行时表示说话时或说话前后的动作或事情。例如：Excuse me z do you speak English?（—般现在时）Listen to those people, what language are they speaking?（现在进行时）What do you do?（表示重复的动作）What are you doing here?（表示说话时正在进行的动作）4. 一般过去时与现在完成时的比较：（1）一般过去时指发生在过去的动作或状态，着眼点在过去；现在完成时则强调过去的动作或事情对现在和将来的影响，着眼点在现在。例如：I lost my pen.（仅表示过去的动作）I've lost my pen. I have to write with a pencil.（对现在产生影响）（2）—般过去时通常与表示过去的特定时间状语连用（此时■不能用现在完成时例如：Tom lost his key yesterday. When he was 65, he decided that he didn't want to stop working.询问某事发生的具体时间或地点时（when, what time, where）,必须用一般过去时。例如：What time did they arrive? When and where were you born? （3）现在完成时经常与表示一段时间的时间状语连用（since, for）；与表示不确定的时间副词及短语连用（already, before, yet, recently, lately, ever, never 等）；与包括现在在内的时间状语连用（now, just, today, this month, always, in the past few days 等）。例如：She has taught English for ten years. I haven't told you this before. He's finished his homework today. 5.现在完成时与过去完成时的比较：现在完成时用于表示过去的经历或过去的动作或事情对现在和将来的影响或产生的结果，着眼点在现在。过去完成时常用来描述在过去某一时间或过去某一动作以前完成的动作或事件，着眼点在过去，动作是过去的过去。例如：I've seen the film.（对现在而言）I had seen the film before I came to Shenzhen.（对过去动作came而言）6.现在完成时与现在完成进行时的比较现在完成时强调动作的结果，并表示动作己经结束；现在完成进行时强调动作从过去某个时间一直持续到现在，而且还要持续下去。例如：John has painted the door.（已漆完，动作已结束）John has been painting the door.（还在漆，动作还要持续下去）We've cleaned the house. You may come in now.（强调动作的结果）We're very tired. We've been cleaning the house.（强调动作持续进行）三、解题指导Find the choice that best completes each of the following sentences. 1. Great changes in Beijing in the past three years. A. took place B. have taken place C. has taken place D. have been taken place答案是B。这个句子的意思是“在过去三年中，北京发生了巨大变化。〃在过去三年中包括现在，因此应该用现在完成时，表示动作从三年前直至现在。此句的主语是“changes,”故应选用have .../'take place （发生）〃这一词组不能用被动形式，故此题答案只能选B o 2. Where the students of Class Three? They morning exercises on the playground now. A. are, are doing B. are, do C. were, are doing D. were, did 答案是A。这是一道选择正确时态搭配的题。一般现在时和现在进行时经常同在一个句子里使用。一般现在时?表示习惯性的反复发生的动作或表示
