28、Tiger Mother describes fighting with a daughter for hours at the piano to ensure the child gets a piece of music right. She rejected birthday cards made for her by her girls because she didnt think they had made enough effort. She compared one child negatively with the other, threatening to burn the

29、ir toys. Her rules include: schoolwork always comes first; an A minus is a bad grade; children must be two yearsahead of their classmates in math, and playing the violin or the piano is a must.Ms. Chua considers the Chinese hard work ethic as a way of creating happy, successful children -at least in

36、Chuas children dont love their motherD. Amy Chuas children prefer western parenting styles CMartin was returning to work in his London office after spending two weeks with his brother in New York. He was coming back with a heavy heart. It was not just that it was the end of a wonderful holiday, it w

37、as not just that he invariably suffered badly from jet lag (時(shí)差); it was that Monday mornings always began with a team meeting and, over the months, he had grown to hate them.Martin was aware that colleagues approached these meetings with hidden agendas; they indulged in (沉溺 于)game-playing; and he kn

38、ew that people were not being honest and open. The meetings themselves were bad enough -there was all the moaning afterwards at the meeting like“I could have improved on that idea, but I wasnt going to say.As this mornings meeting began. Martin prepared himself for the usual dullness and boredom. Bu

39、t, as the meeting progressed, he became aware of a strange background noise. At first, he thought that he was still hearing the engine noise from the aircraft that had brought him back to London. But, as he concentrated on the noise, it became a little clearer.He realized, to his amazement, that he

40、could actually hear what they were thinking at the same time as they were speaking. What surprised him, even more than the acquisition of this strange power, was that he discovered that what people were saying was not really what they were thinking. They were not making clear their reservations, The

41、y were not supporting views which they thought might be popular, They were not contributing their new insights. They were not volunteering their new ideas.Martin found it impossible not to respond to his new knowledge. So be started to make gentle interventions, based more on what he could hear his

42、colleagues thinking than on what he could hear them saying.“So, John, are you really saying.”“Susan, do you really think that?“Tom, have you got an idea on how we could take this forward? They looked at him, puzzled. In truth, he felt rather proud of his newly acquired talent.As the meeting progress

43、ed, it was clear to him that each member of the meeting was learning how to hear the thoughts of the others. The game-laying started to fall away; people started to speak more directly; views became better understood; the atmosphere became more open and trusting.The meeting ended. As people left the

44、 room, Martin found that he could still hear what they were thinking, That was the best meting weve ever had.“All meetings should be like that.“In future, Im going to say what I think.46. It is known from the first paragraph that MartinA. just came back from his business trip in New YorkB. was found

Many members of the meeting played games and told lies at the meeting all the time50. It is inferred fr

49、om the last two paragraphs that towards the end of the meeting Martin would hear such words as“_”A. I was thinking of making a suggestion - -but I couldnt be botheredB. I have got an idea on how we could take this forward I think we should. C. The usual people say the usual things, so I have no othe

50、r new ideasD. I could have improved on that idea, but I wasnt going to say.DAsk more people anywhere in the world what they want out of life and the reply will probably be:“4o be happy. Ed Deiner, an American psychology professor, has spent his whole professional life studying what makes people happ

51、y, comparing levels of happiness between cultures and trying to find out exactly why we enjoy ourselves.Many people would say that this question does not need an answer, But Professor Deiner has one anyway. If youre a cheerful, happy person, your marriage is more likely to last, and you re more like

52、ly to make money and be successful at your job. On average, happy people have stronger immune systems, and there is some evidence that they live longer.So who are the worlds happiest people? It depends on how the word is defined. There is individual happiness, the sense of joy we get when we do some

53、thing we like. But there is also the feeling of satisfaction we get when we know that others respect us and approve of how we behave. According to Professor Deniner, the western world pursues individual happiness while Asia prefers mutual satisfaction.“In the West, the individualistic culture means

54、that your mood matters much more than it does in the East. People ask themselves if they are doing what is fun or interesting, They become unhappy when they cant do any of these things. If you ask people from Japan or Chin if they are happy, they tend to lo at what has gone wrong in their lives. If not much has gone wrong, then they are satisfied.People from Spain and other Spanish-speaking counties had the happiest culture, Professor Deiner found.The biggest cultural difference is to do with pride and shame.
