(2009年温州检测B)When we think of leadership,we often think of strength and power. But what are these really,and how do they operate?
Leadership today is not about forcing others to do things. Even if this is possible,it is shortterm,and tends to produce unexpected and unwanted results. If you order someone to do something against their will,they may do it because they feel they have to,but the anger they feel will do more harm in the long term. They will also experience fear.
Fear causes the thinking brain to shut down,making the person unable to function at his or her best. If they connect you with this emotion of fear,they will become less functional around you,and you will have succeeded in not only shooting yourself in the foot,but possibly making a very good employee or partner unable to perform effectively. Fear does no good to leadership.
The way we influence people in a lasting way is by our own character,and our understanding and use of emotion. We can order someone to do something,which may be part of the work day;or we can employ them at the emotional level,so they will become fully devoted to the projects and provide some of their own motivation. Today’s work place is all about relationships.
Anyone works harder in a positive environment in which they’re recognized and valued as a human being as well as a worker.
Everyone produces just a bit more for someone they like.
Leaders understand the way things work.
They know the pay check is not the single most important factor in the work life of most people.
The true strength of leadership is an inner strength that comes from the confidence of emotional intelligence — knowing your own emotions,and how to handle them,and those of others.
Developing your emotional intelligence is the single best thing you can do if you want to develop your relationship with people around you,which is the key to the leadership skills.
【解题导语】 领导才能的发挥不是通过自己的权力来实现的。只有通过我们的人格去影响人们,才能让人们在一个积极的人文环境中工作。领导能力的真正源泉是对自己的情商的自信。
1. The writer thinks that it is not ________for us to connect leadership with strength and power.
A.
possible
B.
necessary
C.
easy
D.
effective
解析:选B。推理判断题。文章的第二段提到“Leadership today is not about forcing others to do things. ”,说明我们今天再将领导和权力联系在一起是没有必要的。
2. People may NOT be working hard when ________.
A.
they’re regarded as human beings
B.
they like their leaders
C.
money is taken as the most important
D.
leaders understand the way things work
解析:选C。事实细节题。由文中倒数第二段中的“Anyone works harder in a positive environment in which they’re recognized and valued as a human being as well as a worker. ”可知A项不符合题意;从“Everyone produces just a bit more for someone they like. ”可知B项不符合题意;从“Leaders understand the way things work. ”可知D项不符合题意。该段的最后一句说的是金钱不是唯一使人们努力工作的因素。
3. From the passage,we can conclude that ________is the key to making a good leader.
A.
developing one’s emotional intelligence
B.
influencing others in one’s own way
C.
producing some unexpected results
D.
having confidence in one’s ability
解析:选A。推理判断题。文中最后一段的“The true strength of leadership is an inner strength that comes from the confidence of emotional intelligence”,说明要做一个好领导,我们就要提高自己的情商。
4. This passage is most helpful to those who ________.
A.
have strength and power
B.
are going to make a speech
C.
would like to be leaders
