Our interpersonal skills have a great effect on success in our daily lives. This appears not only in the workplace where we can make more money or enjoy our job more, but also shows itself in marriage, raising a family and the ability to reach goals in almost every area of life. Interpersonal skills come into play when our flight is cancelled and we need to make other arrangements. They come into play when a marriage is threatened by financial challenges or infidelity(不忠).
Our communication skills even matter when we are in traffic and we need to make a decision about how to respond to other drivers. Communicating with others becomes inseparable from having a good day, or a bad day not only in how we begin communication, but in how we react to the communications of others who are having a difficult time.
It can make a difference in saving a marriage or getting a divorce, celebrating a rise or getting fired, and even having your eggs cooked as the way you like at the local restaurant. Many wise men and women have stressed the importance of dealing with others in a skillful manner.
Getting feedback(反馈意见) from others can be of great value in improving our interpersonal communication skills. Often, however, others are not skilled at giving feedback. When we get negative results, they rarely include the details we need in order to improve our interpersonal skills.
Since life improves so much with greater communication skills, getting feedback and an opportunity to improve would be not only life-saving for pilots, but labor-saving for the rest of us. Contact Alice Aspen March for a free consultation today and see how you might improve your communication skills, or learn more about The Attention Factor.

The world is not only hungry, but it is also thirsty for water.This may seem strange to you,since nearly 70 percent of the earth's surface is covered with water.But about 97 percent of this huge amount is sea water, or salt water.Man can only drink and use the other 3 percent-the fresh water from rivers,lakes,underground,and other sources.And we cannot even use all of that,because some of it is in the form of icebergs and glacier.Even worse,some of it has been polluted.
However,as things stand today, this small amount of fresh water is still enough for us.But our need for water is increasing rapidly-almost day by day.Only if we take steps to deal with this problem now can we avoid a severe worldwide water shortage later on.
We all have to learn how to stop wasting our valuable water.One of the first steps is to develop ways of reusing it.
Today in most large cities,water is used only once and then sent out into a sewer system.From there it returns to the sea or runs into underground storage tanks.But it is possible to pipe used water to a purifying plant.There it can be treated with chemicals so that it can be used again,just as if it were fresh from a spring.
But even if every large city purified and reused its water,we still would not have enough.All we'd have to do make use of the vast reserves of sea water in the world is to remove the salt.
If we take these steps we'll be in no danger of drying up.
1.The world is thirsty for water because we can only use________ percent of the water covering the surface of the earth.
A.3 B.more than 3 C.less than 3 D.97

B.Our need for water is becoming larger and larger.
C.There will be no water shortage in the future.
D.We should take steps to deal with the water shortage problem.
3.To reuse water, we should ________.
A.treat it with chemicals B.use it only once
C.send it out into a sewer system D.make it flow into underground tanks
4.In order to have enough water.we should also make use of________.

Certain aspects of music have the same effect on people even when they live in very different societies, a new study reveals.
Researchers asked 40 Mbenzele Pygmies in the Congolese rainforest to listen to short clips of music. They were asked to listen to their own music and to unfamiliar Western music.
The same 19 selections of music were also played to 40 amateur or professional musicians in Montreal. Musicians were included in the Montreal group because Mbenzele Pygmies could be considered musicians as they all sing regularly for ceremonial purposes, the study authors explained.
Both groups were asked to rate how the music made them feel using emoticons, such as happy, sad or excited faces.
There were significant differences between the two groups as to whether a specific piece of music made them feel good or bad. However, both groups had similar responses to how exciting or calming they found the different types of music.
"Our major discovery is that listeners from very different groups both responded to how exciting or calming they felt the music to be in similar ways," Hauke Egermann, of the Technical University of Berlin, said in a news release from McGill University in Montreal. Egermann conducted part of the study as a postdoctoral fellow at McGill.
The Montreal participants felt a wider range of emotions as they listened to the Western music than the Pygmies expressed when listening to either their own or Western music. This may be due to the different roles music plays in the two cultures.
"Negative emotions are felt to disturb the harmony of the forest in Pygmy culture and are therefore dangerous," Nathalie Fernando, of the University of Montreal's faculty of music, said in the news release. "If a baby is crying, the Mbenzele will sing a happy song. If the men are scared of going hunting, they will sing a happy song — in general, music is used in this culture to evacuate all negative emotions, so it is not really surprising that the Mbenzele feel that all the music they hear makes them feel good," she explained.
1.Why could Mbenzele Pygmies be regarded as musicians?
A. They are crazy about music.
B. They major in music at school.
C. They can play musical instruments well.
D. They often sing songs on ceremony.
2.The study mainly finds that ________.
A. music is universal across cultures
B. music varies among different countries
C. western music results in negative emotions
D. music makes people happy
3.The underlined word “evacuate” probably means ________.
A. set off B. benefit from C. get rid of D. account for
4.The examples mentioned in the last paragraph are to show that ________.
A. music plays different roles in the two cultures
B. music plays the same role in the two cultures
C. negative music disturbs the harmony of the forest
D. happy music is welcomed everywhere
