Office politics. It’s a term used to describe the power rules of the workplace. Who gets the best workspace, special attention from management, or the most plum assignments? That has a lot to do with talent and competence, but it may also have to do with politics. Office politics affect virtually every workplace. Even if you choose to ignore the politics where you work, chances are that you’ll still be affected by them from time to time. Here are some tips on understanding and navigating workplace politics.
Workplace politics can be both positive and negative. The negatives, such as favoritism, excluding others, gossip, and backstabbing, can be damaging and distracting. But workplace politics can also be positive, uniting teams of people to achieve common goals that also benefit the organization. Here are three important things to keep in mind about workplace politics:
1.It’s important to learn about the politics in your workplace. Many people make the mistake of completely ignoring workplace politics. While you may prefer to steer clear of politics, it’s still important to understand the role they play in your workplace. Being unaware can make you appear disinterested and unknowledgeable -- and may leave you vulnerable.
2.Be an observer. This will help you understand the politics in your workplace. Observe which behaviors help people succeed. Try to figure out who is influential in your organization and what makes them that way. Ask your manager or a mentor to help you understand the politics in your workplace as well. Discuss the behaviors that tend to set successful people apart.
3.Let honesty and integrity guide you. Office politics can often seem unfair, but you can choose to rise above and act with professionalism. Remember that while some people clamor ruthlessly for the top and will do anything to get
there, honesty and fairness will help you succeed personally and professionally.
Successfully navigating the politics in your workplace
Here are 10 tips to help you navigate politics in your workplace:
1.
the expense of teamwork. Work collaboratively with other team members and departments. That’s the guiding rule of a great politician.
2.
Badmouthing can make you look bad, and negative comments can come back to haunt you later. If you have a problem with a co-worker, talk with her directly and privately. Talking behind someone’s back only makes matters worse.
3.
others look good and feel good is good politics and it makes you look good as well.
Stay the extra time it takes to help a co-worker finish an important project. Send a congratulatory e-mail to a co-worker about a job well done -- and copy his manager.
4.
don’t have to participate in gossip to benefit from the grapevine. Closing your mouth and opening your ears allows you to stay up-to-date about what’s going on in your organizati on without contributing negative energy.
5.
difficult or confidential issues in person or over the phone. Never send an e-mail you wouldn’t want others to read.
6.
may need to collaborate or exchange favors down the road.
7.
your reputation in a way that is natural for you. If ingratiating yourself isn’t your style but
networking is, then network. For example, put your manager in contact with people who can support the team’s goals instead of wasting time raving about her new suit.
8.
is a great way to promote yourself without overselling yourself. If you don’t have highly visible responsibilities, volunteer for a new project that will draw attention to your talents and skills.
9.Be assertive, not aggressive. Avoid whining and complaining. These behaviors are a waste of energy and they can make you appear unprofessional. Take a look around you -- highly successful people in your workplace are probably not known for complaining.
10.
yourself to people you can help and to those who can help you. Work at being part of multiple networks, not just one. And communicate with those networks often.

Exercise 1 With only two weeks to go before Christmas, buying presents is a high priority for a lot of people. However, this year not so many people are leaving their homes to go shopping. These days lots of people can do their shopping in the comfort of their own home with the help of the Internet. Online shopping is becoming more and more popular for a number of reasons: prices are often lower online; you don’t have to queue up in busy shops and you can buy almost any product imaginable with just a few clicks of your mouse. Both male and female are buying into the trend, but women are expected to do more shopping on the Internet than men. It seems women are now more attracted to the convenience of online shopping than they used to be. Average spending online this Christmas by women will rise to ￡ 240 (3.360 yuan) compared to the slightly lower average of ￡ 233 (3,262 yuan) for men. In the past a lot of people were reluctant to shop online. Many were worried about the security of entering their card details on the Internet and the reliability of the Internet but as shopping online has become more widespread, these worries have begun to disappear. 45% of Internet users still do have security worries but it hasn’t slowed down the ever-increasing numbers of online shoppers. One victim of the online shopping boom is the UK high street. The average spending per person on the high street is only ￡197. 70% of Internet users who are now buying their Christmas gifts online. 参考范文： This year, people are doing Christmas shopping online at home rather than leave their homes for cheaper goods and more convenience.(要点1) With increasing popularity of online shopping, women spend more than men.(要点2) Although safety is a major concern for shopping online,still more and more people choose to shop online.(要点3) With the pressure from widespread online shopping, traditional shops in the UK high street began their sales promotion earlier this Christmas.(要点4) 分析过程： 一、试题详解
Exercise 1 College pays off financially. A wide range of statistics shows the economic advantage of a four-year college education. Over a lifetime, students who graduate from college can expect to make about 60% more than those who do not, well over a million dollars more than they would otherwise. But what about the benefits of college that are more difficult to measure? They are equally significant and add up to a lot of value over the course of a lifetime： College takes students to places they’ve never been to before. College is a passport to different places, different times, and different ways of thinking —from learning new languages to considering the development of human history to diving deep into the building blocks of matter. It gives students a chance to understand themselves differently, seeing how their lives are both like and unlike those who populated other eras(时代)）and other lands. College introduces students to people they've never met before. One of the most important ways in which students learn, at colleges and universities everywhere, is by interacting with people who are different from themselves both inside and outside the classroom. Students learn more at a place full of engaging people with a wide range of viewpoints. In these ways and in so many others, college helps students see themselves differently, giving them the room and the license to imagine new possibilities. Yes, it opens opportunities reflected in earning and employment statistics. But, perhaps even more valuable, it opens minds and worlds in ways that are beyond measurement. The value of higher education is symbolized by people who dream bigger and achieve more, who create their own futures and shape their own futures. 参考答案： According to statistics，college makes a great difference to students’ earning power,(要1) while it also contributes to other valuable aspects beyond assessment in life.(要点2) Firstly, college motivates students’ self-realization through various learning activities.(要点3) Secondly, it shapes students’ diverse perspectives by encouraging them to communicate with different

说明文summary 1. 写说明文概述的步骤： 1）?确定主题句。确定阅读文章的主题句，一般在段首。没有主题句的需要自己组合。? 2）寻找关键词。分析主题句意义，确定关键词，关键词一般体现为名词、形容词，关键词的数目决定了概括的信息浓度。? 3）重构主题句。概括的主题句逻辑上要统摄后面所有的支撑句。可以从作者的写作目的逆推，反映写作目的主题句是高度抽象的，它基本决定了概括的质量。? 4）重组支撑句。支撑句的意义在逻辑上受制于主题句，可以是补充过程或者提供证据。? 口诀：简括为：缩长见短，省却细腻。（括：概括性。见：间接引语。短：短的连词。细腻：细节和例子）? 2. 写说明文概述要注意的事项： 1) 不能摘抄原文句子, 要用自己的语言“重组”主要内容； 2) 只保留主要观点，不要细节； 3) 不要发表自己的观点； 4) 不要把列举、描绘性语言当成概述性语言； 5) 一般用第三人称转述； 6) 概述不要太宽泛，缺乏针对性，也不要只针对原文某个细节，概述得太狭窄； 7) 注意段中句子的衔接, 切忌只简单地写出一些互不相干的句子； 8) 保证无语法错误;
说明文Summary 的教学步骤 第一步通读全文, 领略大意。通常summary 的开头都有一些常用的句子，学生可以积累用。 第二步小结每一段的大意。用最简练的文字把文章每段的主要内容概括出即可。 第三步根据每一段的大意以及作者的侧重点, 不要加入自己的个人观点，综合归纳全文的大意。对于说明性或描述性的短文，可以用概括性文字说明某一现象。比如可概括如下：This article points out the common phenomenon… Summary 范文 Directions: Summarize in no more than 60 words the main idea of the passage and how it is illustrated. Use your own words as far as possible. Although problems are a part of our lives, it certainly doesn’t mean that we let them rule our lives forever. One day or the othe r, you’ll have to stand up and say –problem, I don’t want you in my life. Of course, we’ve been fighting troubles ever since we were born. Problems with friends, parents, girlfriends, husbands, and children –the list goes on. Apart from these, the inner conflicts within ourselves work, too. These keep adding to our problems. Problems come in different shapes and colors and feelings.// But good news is that all problems can be dealt with. Now read on to know how to solve your problems.// Talk, it really helps. What most of us think is that our problem can be understood only by us and that no talking is going to help.??But the truth is that when you talk about it, you’re setting free the negative energies that have been gathering within you. Talking helps you move on and let go.

新概念第三册summary writing Summary The reports received by London Zoo that a puma had been spotted forty-five miles south of London were similar in nature. A woman picking blackberries saw it first, but the puma moved from place to place,leaving a trail of dead deer and small animals. Paw prints and puma fur were found as well. ‘Cat-like noises’were heard at night and the animal was seen up a tree. Now experts were convinced that the animal really was a puma.

He saw Bill Wilkins, the local grocer there and Bill explained he was trying to repair the clock but hadn't succeeded because at one o'clock it struck thirteen times. However, the vicar was pleased the bell was working and offered the grocer a cap of tea. (79 words) Archaeologists found clay fragments in an ancient temple.

summary writing(原文及范文） Writing Directions: For this part, you are to write a summary of either of two articles that are presented to you in the following. Your summary should be 150-200 words. Remember to write neatly. Science and Humanity The twentieth century saw more momentous change than any previous century: change for better, change for worse; change that brought enormous benefits to human beings, change that threatens the very existence of the human species. Many factors contributed to this change but—in my opinion—the most important factor was the progress in science. Academic research in the physical and biological sciences has vastly broadened our horizons; it has given us a deep insight into the structure of matter and of the universe; it has brought better understanding of the nature of life and of its continuous evolution. Technology—the application of science—has made fantastic advances that have affected us beneficially in nearly every aspect of life: better health, more wealth, less drudgery (单调沉闷的工作), greater access to information. Sadly, however, there is another side to the picture. The creativity of science has been employed to the detriment(损害) of mankind. The application of science and technology to the development and manufacture of weapons of mass destruction has created a real threat to the continued existence of the human race on this planet. We have seen this happen in the case of nuclear weapons. Although their actual use in combat has so far occurred only in 1945—when two Japanese cities were destroyed—during the four decades of the Cold War, obscenely huge arsenals(武器库) of nuclear weapons were accumulated and made ready for use. The arsenals were so large that if the weapons had actually been detonated (爆炸) the result could have been the complete extinction of the human species, as well as of many animal species. William Shakespeare said: "The web of our life is of a mingled (混合的) yarn, good and ill together. " The above brief review of the application of only one strand of human activities— science—seems to bear out this adage (格言). But does it have to be so? Must ill always accompany good deeds? Are we biologically programmed for aggression and war? I am not an authority in genetics, but from my readings and life-long observation I do not see any evidence that we are genetically condemned to commit evil. On the contrary, on very general grounds I would say that genetically we are destined to do things that are of benefit to the human species, and that the negative aspects are mistakes, transient errors in the process of evolution. In other words, I believe in the inherent goodness of Man.
