Nobody likes to think they are “that guy” at work. 1.. So, what are some of the rudest things that people do at work — and why shouldn’t you do them?

Behaving in an unacceptable way

The most common form of this is eating smelly foods at lunchtime. Other things alike include body smell and its opposite, the wearing of strong perfume, messy desks, or bad breath. 2..

Checking email on your phone when you’re talking to other people

A recent survey shows that 49 percent of people said their bosses checked their phones while talking with them. 3.. If you’ve ever wondered why your team members are unmotivated, this may be why. In fact, when you’re talking to someone at work, you should reject any non-important calls.

4.

Do you like the sound of your own voice? Great. Perhaps it’s time you learned to like the sound of other people’s voices too. If you interrupt others when they speak, they’ll dislike you and discount whatever you’re saying. And if you routinely take up three quarters of the meeting with your monologues（独角戏）, people will turn off and, quite rightly, start checking email on their phones. However, if you listen to what others say and show interest by asking intelligent questions, they’ll love you and be likely to give you their support when you speak.

● Showing off how much you earn

5.. If you show off your income to someone and then discover you get less than them, you’ll look like a fool. If you earn more, they’ll feel tired of you. So keep them guessing and hide your earning power in quiet ways — like always paying for the team coffees.

A. Talking all the time

B. Being a good listener

C. Team-working can never be ignored

D. All these things will become part of your personal brand

E. It’s better to be modest when you talk about your incomes

F. Bad behavior at work is common — and often we do it without thinking

G. An interesting email is more valuable than the person you are actually talking to

My first job was working for a women’s clothes manufacturer at the age of 15. It made me realize what I didn’t want to do for my future employment.

The only advantage of this job was receiving a wage at the end of the week and sometimes getting clothes for free if they were to my taste. I carried on doing this for only a year, as my studies at school were getting more serious and I wanted to study more to get the right grades.

After I had finished college, my first real job was working for a play publisher in central London. I remember writing a letter of application for the post of administration for Samuel French Limited. I had put so much effort into writing it, not realizing that this would be my first step in the process of finding out what I really wanted to do for my future employment. I didn’t think I would get the job, but as it turned out, I got a telephone call quickly and started a week later. I remember being excited that I would be working for a publisher in London. Although I had thought I would prefer to work for a book publisher, a play publisher was just as enjoyable.

Looking back now, not all first jobs turn out to be enjoyable. Some of my friends worked in supermarkets while they were at college just to earn a bit of money. I remember thinking how much happier I felt working in a clothes factory than in a supermarket.

Years later, I can see how good it is to experience work at an early age, as it gives people the opportunity to decide what kind of career will be most suitable for them one day. The boring task of a job will make a person want to pursue an education to get into the right type of employment, which was what I had realized in the end.

1.The author did her first job for only a year because _______.

A.the clothes made there didn’t suit her taste

B.she really didn’t like such a boring job

C.she wanted to get the right grades at school

D.she didn’t get well paid at the end of the week

2.What can we learn about the author in the third paragraph?

A.She was confident that she could get the first job.

B.She telephoned Samuel French Limited for a post.

C.She was aware of the importance of writing the application letter.

D.She used to think she would prefer to work for a book publisher.

3.It could be inferred from the text that the author _______.

A.took her first job in order to support her poor family

B.realized what her first job meant to her future employment

C.had a great interest in her first job in a clothes factory

D.thought her friends’ job in supermarkets was more interesting

4.What would be the best title for the text?

A.My Experience in a Clothes Factory

B.The Qualities of a Play Publisher

C.Importance of Early Work Experience

D.The Secrets to Get the Right Grades

The high school grades of Tom Monaghan, who was born in 1937, were so low that he graduated at the bottom of his class. The local university turned down his application, but he managed to enter the University of Michigan. A few weeks later, he dropped out because he lacked money for school fees. In 1960, Monaghan agreed to buy a pizza store with his brother, who gave up a year later.

For the first year, Monaghan worked all the time but hardly made any money. He soon found himself deep in debt. He began making the business simpler, selling only three sizes of pizza, instead of five. This change helped Monaghan make a profit, which allowed him to expand his three stores under a new name, Domino’s.

However, during the following years Monaghan experienced a series of setbacks. In 1967, a fire destroyed his store in Ypsilanti, Michigan, which served as the company’s offices. Most of the damage was not covered by insurance. In an effort to recover his losses, Monaghan continued to expand his franchise, but was unable to keep up with the growth. Without Monaghan’s guidance, many of the new stores closed down. By 1970, Monaghan was $1.5 million in debt and facing lawsuits from nearly 150 debtors. In the following financial settlement, Monaghan lost 51 percent of his company to the bank.

But Monaghan concentrated on building the 49 percent of the business he still owned. Slowly, he began to work his way out of his financial difficulties. He defended himself in court since he could not afford a lawyer. He sold his furniture and his car. In about a year, he managed to pay off all his debts.

These hard times taught him a valuable lesson in how to run a business. By 1978, two hundred Domino’s stores had opened. Five years later, the number of stores was over a thousand; by 1989, the chain had more than five thousand stores. The company had more than six thousand pizza delivery stores when Monaghan sold it for $1 billion in 1998.
