5、r fuss over Kelly, the younger one, admiring her dress, her hair and her smile.

We do it with

6、 the best of intentions.But we seldom think of how it might affect the other child. I was a little worried that Kristen would feel she was being outshined.

7、said, What are you doing, my dear?She turned to me with a sad expression and said, Mommy, why dont people like me the way they like my sister? Is it because I m not pretty?

11、ty is indeed of high praise. Leadership means power, commands respect and, most important, encourages achievement. Unlike vitamin C, leadership skills cant be easily swallowed down. They must be carefully cultivated.Different from popular belief, most good leaders are made, not born. They learn thei

12、r skills in their everyday lives. But which do they develop? How do they （and how can you） get others to follow?Always give credit. Many leaders note that the most efficient way to get a good performance from others is to treat them like heroes. Giving public credit to someone who has earned it is t

13、he best leadership technique in the world. It is also an act of generosity （慷慨） thats never forgotten.Giving credit is more effective than even the most constructive criticism （批评）, which often hurts rather than helps. Kenneth Blanchard, the author of The One-Minute Manager, agrees.Catch people doin

14、g something right! he says. Then tell everyone about it.Take informed risks. The best leaders know that taking a risk is not a thoughtless exercise, says management adviser Marilyn Machlowitz. Sky divers dont go up in an airplane without checking the parachutes （降落伞） beforehand. Because the idea of

15、risk also carries with it the possibility of failure, many of us usually wait for others to take charge. But if you want to be a leader, you must learn to fail - and not die a thousand deaths.

Or have you jumped in the water and felt the rush of energy as waves came over ab-stops: 105.0pt 189.0pt 273.0ptUniversity of Edinburgh. There is certainly a lot of energy in waves, he said.Scientists are wor

20、king to use that energy to make electricity. Most waves are created when winds blow across the ocean. The wind starts out by making little ripples （涟漪）, but if they keep on blowing, those ripples get bigger and bigger and turn into waves, Taylor said. Waves are one of natures ways of picking up ener

21、gy and then sending it off on a journey. When waves come toward the shore, people can set up darns to block the water and send it through a large wheel called a turbine （涡轮机）. The turbine can then power an electrical generator to produce electricity.The resource is huge, said Janet Swain of the Worl

22、dwatch Institute. We will never run out of wave power. Besides, wave energy does not create the same pollution as other energy sources, such as oil or coal. Oceans cover three-quarters of the Earths surface - that would make wave power seem ideal for creating energy throughout the world, though ther

23、e are some weak points yet to overcome.Swain said that wave power still costs too much money. She also said that its effects on sea animals are still unknown. What is more, wave power could affect fishing and boat traffic.Traditional sources of energy like oil and gas may someday run out. Demand for

24、 energy to power our TVs and computers, drive our cars, and heat and cool our homes is rising rapidly throughout the world, Swain said. In the future when you turn on a light, an ocean wave could be providing the electricity!64. The writer uses the two questions at the beginning of the passage to _.

27、lution B. our boat traffic C. our power supply D. our supply of sea fishDIn 1837, the historian Carlyle made the first recorded use of the word queue （排队）. He spoke of the French and their habit of standing in a queue. Forty years later Paris was the best place to wait in line.However, queuing becam

28、e popular in Britain too. The Second World War was the golden age of queuing, and people joined any line in the hope that it was a queue for something to buy. This was the source of many Second World War jokes:Shopkeeper to customer: Excuse me, miss, are you pregnant （怀孕）?Customer: Well, I wasnt whe

29、n I joined the queue.Today, according to research in America, we （in Britain） can spend up to 5 years of our lives queuing- as compared to twelve months looking for things we have lost. But things may be changing. Many people no longer have the patience to stand in a queue. The law of the jungle （丛林

Customers at supermarket cheese counters can now take a ticket with a number which appears on a screen when it is their turn. And while they w

31、ait for their number, they can do a bit of shopping.In some booking offices there is also a system telling customers how long they may have to wait before they are served.One of the latest technical progress is the use of an electronic scanner （电子识别器） which can read all the contents of your shopping basket or trolley in just a few seconds. If these become popular, queuing in supermarkets may become a thing of the p
