　　Millions of people pass through the gates of Disney's entertainment parks in California, Florida and Japan each year. What makes these places an almost universal attraction? What makes foreign kings and queens and other important people want to visit these Disney parks? Well, one reason is the way they're treated once they get there. The people at Disney go out of their way to serve their “guests”， as they prefer to call them, and to see that they enjoy themselves.

　　All new employees, from vice presidents to part­time workers, begin their employment by attending Disney University and taking “Traditions 1”. Here, they learn about the company's history, how it is managed and why it is successful. They are shown how each department relates to the whole. All employees are shown how their part is important in making the park a success.

　　After passing 揟raditions 1?­， the employees go on to more specialized training for their specific jobs. No detail is missed. A simple job like taking tickets requires four eight­hour days of training. When one ticket taker was asked why it took so much training for such a simple, ordinary job, he replied, “What happens if someone wants to know where the restrooms are, when the parade starts or what bus to take back to the campgrounds？…We need to know the answers or where to get them quickly. Our constant aim is to help our guests enjoy the party.”

　　Even Disney's managers get involved in the daily management of the park. Every year, the managers leave their desks and business suits and put on special service clothes. For a full week, the bosses sell hot dogs or ice cream, take tickets or drive the monorail (单轨车), and take up any of the 100 jobs that make the entertainment park come alive. The managers agree that this week helps them to see the company's goals more clearly.

　　All these efforts to serve the public well have made Walt Disney Productions famous. Disney is considered by many as the best mass service provider in America or the world. As one long璽ime business observer onyce said, “How Disney treats people, communicates with them, and rewards them, is in my view the very reason for his fifty years of success…I have watched, very carefully and with great respect and admiration, the theory and practice of selling satisfaction and serving millions of people on a daily basis, successfully. It is what Disney does best.”

　　As computers become more popular in China, Chinese people are increasingly relying on computer keyboards to input Chinese characters. But if they use the computer too much, they may end up forgetting the exact strokes(笔画)of each Chinese character when writing on paper. Experts suggest people, especially students, write by hand more.

　　Do you write by hand more or type more? In Beijing, students start using a computer as early as the primary school. And computer dependence is more wide­spread among university students. Almost all their assignments and essays are typed on a computer.

　　All the students interviewed say they usually use a computer.

　　It's faster and easier to correct if using a computer. And that's why computers are being applied more and more often to modern education. But when people are taking_stock_in computers increasingly, problems appear.

　　“When I'm writing with a pen, I find I often can't remember how to write a character, though I feel I'm familiar with it.”

　　“I'm not in the mood to write when faced with a pen and paper.”

　　Many students don't feel this is something to worry about. Now that it's more convenient and efficient to write on a computer, why bother to handwrite?

Through one's handwriting, people can get to know one's thinking and personality. Beautiful writing will give people a better first impression of them.”
