1Have you ever known anyone famous? If so, you may have found that they are remarkably similar to the rest of us. You may have even heard them to people saying there is anything different about them. "I'm really just a normal guy," an actor who has recently rocketed into the spotlight. There is, of course, usually a brief period while they are popular when they actually start to believe they are as great as their fans suggest. They start to wear clothes and talk as if everyone should hear what they have to say. This period, however, does not often last long. They fall back to reality as fast as they had risen above it all. What will it feel like to soar to such and look down like an eagle from up high on everyone else? And what will it feel like to have flown so high only to from your dream and realize you are only human? Some only see the in losing something they had gained. They often make attempts to regain what they lost. Often these efforts result in even greater pain. Some become financially and emotionally. The only real winners are those who are happy to be back on the ground with the rest of us.2Have you ever heard of Jon Stewart? He is currently one of the most popular comics on television. His pessimistic view of the politics and governmentlaughter, thought and even anger. He has a clever wit that often runs into with some government policies. His whole show is to making fun of the nonsense that occurs in politics. But, what makes his show so is his ability to tell his jokes with intelligence."It's not just comedy," said one media expert. "His comments have a lot of over a very large audience in America. He has a lot of political power." Recently Stewart was a guest on a news show about politics. The host journalist a heated debate when he about Stewart's responsibility to the American public. Stewart argued that while the content of the script for his show may be political in nature, his primary is to entertain. The host journalist, however, emphasized the political influence of his performance. The argument ended up anger from both parties. The incident how sensitive some people can be to what others find funny. It also showed how important comedians have become to politics.3What happens in America when someone becomes disabled and cannot do the kind of work they did in the past? If someone has been injured on the job, they are supposed to the medical worker, who would certify that there was a problem. Then, they may receive from the company. If the company provides a(n) , the person may receive money monthly to make up for lostwages. The person who has been disabled may also take the company to court if safety was at the workplace. This usually results in of a payment to settle the dispute. In addition, all workplaces are required to pay money to the government for a program to take care of people disabled on the job. One in this program requires workplaces where more injuries to pay more money. For this reason companies that require heavy physical labor take safety very seriously. Most people disability insurance. They think it is that a person should get paid without working. In fact, this benefit is usually not enough to cover the rent and other bills of those who receive it. Most of the disabled still want to work, but from the injury and training for other types of employment takes time.4Mr. Li runs a small trade company in Sichuan province. He used to be worried about the sales of his goods, but now he simply logs on to the Internet and the information about his company to almost anywhere. He now has so many resources at his than before. He has even started to in foreign countries and make money almost anywhere.The revolution has certainly changed the way we look at the world. And, most importantly, it allows people to get equal to the information. People in less developed areas of the world are taking of the benefits as well. Oneperson says, "I used to have a small farm, but now I am doing international business." This is just one of the many benefits of the information . There are, however, some challenges we will have to face. For example, there is a great deal of concern over in the Information Age. Mr. Li this point. Hopefully, we can solve this problem in the near future.5How do you spend your time when you're alone? Do you turn up your music as loud as you can and listen to your own entertainment? Do you buy yourself the biggest steak you could find and sit down to a good meal? It has been my observation that these activities can be the best type of for a troubled mind. It is crucial for humans to find some in life. They must find some time to let the universe go spinning on without others' . The portion of this world that to one person is increasingly becoming smaller. And whatever we do have we must with others. Therefore, our ability to maintain a healthy balance between social and personal pursuits is being challenged. Inspiration in solitude is a major not only for poets and philosophers but for ordinary people as well. A healthy adult needs "alone-time"; time to on what is truly important to them. When you are alone, you can out your soul until it fills up the whole room, and use yourfreedom, moving at your own pace. However, it's important to stay . Don't forget that in order to be a healthy part of others' lives, you must yourself be healthy.6In the past several years, many news stories about corporate greed have come to surface. The illegal practices of some executives have impacted our economy. What makes this worse is that these executives seem to have the of some political leaders. Some of the executives even lawmakers. Recently a member of Congress from California was caught demanding gifts from interest groups in for supporting new laws. A few top leaders in the government are under for illegal activities. This doesn't even the surface of the problem. A few years back a company made many purposeful errors to fool investors. Many believe that one reason the problem became so big was that our nation's top leaders the company. By the time the truth was , many innocent people had lost their entire savings. There seems to be more and more companies that the public's trust for their own interests. This calls for laws and strict regulations to put the illegal practice to an end.7I have read The History and Geography of Human Genes by Luca Cavalli-Sforza but still have some questions. Even though these findings seemingly prove that races are essentially equal on a genetic level, there are differences unexplained. It was Darwin who first the theory of natural selection. His notion was that certain characteristics that help that species are selected over generations by that species. The species does not consciously make the choice for gene . Instead, by surviving longer and being more fruitful, members of that species with the preferred genes gradually become the breed. We may, as a species, all have our existence in one location, but this was long long ago. Factors such as climate and other survival necessities have created needs for . I believe these factors have contributed to races evolving with different . This explains the such as Asians receiving better science and math scores. It also light on why there are so many excellent athletes from Africa. I understand that this is a particularly statement. This is especially true in an age when races are mixing and the peoples of this planet are attempting to learn to live together.8To look at me, you would never guess I am in my late sixties. Most people that. I just smile and say, "A lady never her age." There are good reasonswhy a lady doesn't. Older women get ignored in our society. We are and left to grow old without the company of others. I understood from a very young age our society against the old. Our society is against women. And, our society makes based on the color of a person's skin. I am an old black woman. I have to use my every advantage in order to a vital part of my community. I have managed to stay fit, to my looks while my wisdom increases. Often younger men my abilities. However, I should tell you that I am very skilled in the art of politics. I was for many years the mayor of a large urban center in the Southern United States. After that I was selected by my district to them in Congress. I advise other women over sixty not to give up! Old as we are, we have experience and know more about life. Let's not let our knowledge and experience go to waste.9The Disney Legends program was established in 1987 to and honor the many individuals whose imagination, talents and dreams have the Disney magic. The awards are given annually during a(n) at the Walt Disney Studios.The Legends are chosen by a selection committee chosen by Roy E. Disney. Since its inception (开始), the program has honored many animators,songwriters, actors and business leaders as having made a significant on the Disney legacy.In 1997, the Legends program was established in Europe with a ceremony held at Disneyland Paris, commemorating the 5th of the park and honoring those who established many of the Disney European businesses. During the ceremony, a 14-foot bronze enlargement of the Disney Legends award was unveiled as an enduring of their contributions.On October 16, 1998, the new Disney Legends Plaza was at the Walt Disney Studios to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the Walt Disney Company. The Plaza a second edition of the bronze sculpture first placed in Disneyland Paris, with bronze plaques the individual Legends lining the columns of the Plaza.Each year, new Legends will join this celebrated group so that we may always remember the gifts of those people who know the secret of making dreams come true.10As a boss, I have dealt with all types of employees. The ones that are the least are those who are not adaptive. They may have high IQ points, but they just don't understand how to their theories to reality. I recently read a book by Daniel Goleman, which that the true measure of intelligence was not IQ,but rather EQ or Emotional Intelligence. This made a lot of to me. I have never been at the top of my class, but I have always been and worked well with other people. I have always taken good communication skills my number one priority. I think only testing how well a person solves complicated academic problems fails to take into other abilities, which can be just as and even more so to a person's accomplishments. In fact, many of the "idea people" have a real hard time getting their point across. They simply don't have the skills to how valuable their idea might be. Sure, the world would be lost without these "idea people", but I'd rather hire someone with EQ. The higher a person's EQ is, the better they will be able to the great ideas they have. The real trick is finding someone who combines both.。
