)1.New technology links the world as never before. Our planet hasshrunk. It’s now a “global village” where countries are onlyseconds away by fax or phone or satellite link. And. of course, our ability to benefit from this high-tech communicationsequipment is greatly enhanced by foreign language skills.Deeply involved with this new technology is a breed of modern businesspeople who have a growing respect for the economic value of doing business abroad. In modern markets, success overseas often helps support domestic business efforts.Overseas assignments are becoming increasingly important to advancement within executive ranks. The executive stationed in another country no longer need fear being “out of sight and out of mind.” He or she can be sure that the overseas effort is central to the company’s plan for success, and that promotions often follow or accompany an assignment abroad. If an employee can succeed in a difficult assignment overseas, superiors will have greater confidence in his or her ability to cope back in the United States where cross-cultural considerations and foreign language issues are becoming more and more prevalent (普遍的).Thanks to a variety of relatively inexpensive communications devices with business applications, even small businesses in the United States are able to get into international markets.English is still the international language of business. But thereis an ever-growing need for people who can speak another language. A second language isn’t generally required to get a job in business, but having language skills gives a candidate the edge when other qualifications appear to be equalThe employee posted abroad who speaks the country’s principal language has an opportunity to fast-forward certain negotiations, and can have the cultural insight to know when it is better to move more slowly.

It was not until in my late thirties that I made this important discovery: giving-away makes life so muchmore exciting. You need not worry if you lack money. This is howI experimented with giving-away. If an idea for improving thewindow display of a neighborhood store flashes to me, I step in and make the suggestion to the storekeeper. One discovery I made about giving-away is that it is almost impossible to give away anything in this world without getting something back, thoughthe return often comes in an unexpected form.

Steveland was bornprematurely(早产) and totally without sight in1950. He became Steve Wonder --- composer, singer, and pianist. The winner of ten Grammy Awards(格莱美奖), Steve is widely acclaimed for his outstanding contributions to the music world.As a child, Steve learned not to think about the things he could not do, but to concentrate on the things that he could do. His parents encouraged him to join his sighted brothers in as many activities as possible. They also helped him to sharpen his sense of hearing, the sense upon which the visually disabled are so dependent. Because sound was so important to him, Steve began at an early age to experiment with different kinds of sound. He would bang things together and then imitate(模仿) the sound with his voice. Often relying on sound for entertainment, he sang, beat on toy drums(鼓), played a toy harmonica(口琴), and listened to the radio.Steve soon graduated from toy instruments to real instruments. He first learned to play the drums. He then mastered the harmonica and the piano. He became a member of the junior church choir and a lead singer. In the evenings and on weekends, Steve would play different instruments and sing popular rhythm and blues (布鲁斯音乐)tunes on the front porches of neighbors’ homes.One of Steve’s sessions was overheard by Ronnie white, a member of a popular singing group called The Miracles. Ronnie immediately recognized Steve’s talent(才华) and took him to audition (试演) for Berry Gordy, the president of Hitsville USA, a large recording company now known as Motown. Steve recorded his first smashhit(极为轰动的) “fingertips” in 1962 at age twelve, and the rest of Steve’s story is music history.1).

In 1993, the owners of a large hotel and ofseveral houses discovered, to their horror, that their gardens had disappeared overnight. The sea had eaten into the softlimestone cliffs on which they had been built. While expertswere studying the problem, the hotel and several housesdisappeared altogether, sliding down the cliff and into the sea.Erosion(侵蚀)of the white cliffs along the south coast of England has always been a problem but it has become more serious in recent years. Dozens of homes have had to be abandoned as the sea has crept farther and farther inland. Experts have studied the areas most affected and have drawn up a map for local people,forecasting the year in which their homes will be swallowed up by the hungry sea. Angry owners have called on the Government to erect sea defenses to protect their homes. Government surveyors have pointed out that in most cases, this is impossible. New sea walls would cost hundreds of millions of pounds and would merely make the waves and currents go further along the coast, shifting the problem from one area to another. The danger is likely to continue, they say, until the waves reach an inland area of hard rock which will not be eaten as limestone is. Meanwhile, if you want to buy a cheap house with an uncertain future, apply to a house agent in one of the threatened areas on the south coast of England. You can get a house for a knockdown price but it may turn out to be a knockdown home. 1).
