19、s In recent years, “patient escorts” has emerged as a new industry, and those who have taken on this career are known as “people who sell time”, 26-year-old Zhang Tian is one of them.September 4 was a lucky day for Zhang Tian. On this day, Zhang Tian saw a video about patient escorts on a short vide
20、o platform. The daily routine of patient escorts shown in the video fascinated her and gradually inspired her to take this on as a business. She browsed through many platforms and read multiple information and found there indeed exists a certain demand for patient escorts, especially for the elderly
21、, children, and pregnant women. Since she had never engaged in this kind of work before, she spent two days in major hospitals in Wuhan, in order to familiarize herself with all the departments on different floors, as well as the processes of medical consultation and preparation for surgery.After pr
22、eliminary preparatory (预备的) work, Zhang Tian posted a video of myself-introduction on major social platforms, talking about the help and services a patient escort provides, as well as some tips for a quick and convenient medical consultation.

23、o unnoticed. However, after she uploaded the video, it got over 100 likes and she received her first ever offer as a patient escort.The memory of her first task is still alive and fresh in her mind. She received a phone call on September 9 from a man whose father was seriously ill and might need sur

Which of the following words best describe Zhang Tian?A. Hardworking and considerate.B. Humorous and careful.C. Ambitious and imaginativ
28、e.D. Talkative and positive.CThe word listen, as is shown in Longman Dictionary, means paying attention to what someone is saying or to a sound that you can hear. Listening is definitely an important skill in communication. “When people talk, listen completely.” Those words of Ernest Hemingway might
29、 be a pretty good guiding principle for many managers. After all, people like being listened to.Some firms use a technique known as a “listening circle”. In such a circle, only one person can talk about the issues they face at a time and there is no interruption. A study cited in the Harvard Busines
30、s Review found that employees who had taken part in a listening circle subsequently suffered less social anxiety and had fewer worries about work-related matters than those who did not.Listening has been critical to the career of Richard Mullender, who was a hostage (人质) negotiator, dealing with eve
31、rything from suicide interventions to international kidnaps (绑架). He defines listening as “the identification, selection and interpretation of the key words”. It is crucial to all effective communication.Plenty of people think that good listening is about nodding your head or keeping eye contact. Bu
32、t that is not really listening, Mr Mullender argues. A good listener is always looking for facts, emotions and indications of the other persons values. Another important point to bear in mind is that, when you talk, you are not listening. The listeners focus should be on analysis.Of course, a listen
33、er needs to speak occasionally. One approach is to make an assessment of what the other person is telling you and then check it with them. For example, you can check with the other person by saying “It seems to me that what you want is”. That gives the other party a sense that they are being underst
34、ood. The fundamental aim is to build up a relationship so the other person likes you and trusts you, Mr Mullender says.8. What can we learn about a “listening circle”?A.

36、 the other person.B. To check our assessments with the other person.C. To make assessments of what the other person is saying.D. To have a sense of being understood by the other person.11. Whats the best title of the text?A. The Analysis of a Listening CircleB. The Tricks of Successful ListeningC. T
37、he Misunderstanding of ListeningD. The Necessity of Effective ListeningDYour emotion helps you make sense of the world. At the core of an emotion is a subjective experience of the valence of it what emotion scientists call “affect” (情感). Generally speaking, affect is what we are most focused on. Do
38、you have chocolate cake in front of you? Thats good! Do you see a spider on the table! Thats bad!Your affective reactions tell you which experiences are desirable, and which arent, but the total emotional experience includes all you do and think. You can learn a lot by observing and describing them.
39、 You can also learn a lot by appreciating their secret life.The problem is: the affective features of emotions tend to dominate. Our subjective valence of emotion is almost all we can see. When emotions are only about what is pleasant or unpleasant in subjective experience right now, the more import
40、ant features of emotion disappear.If you can slow down and expand; if you stop running or clinging (沉浸其中) and adopt a sense of curiosity, emotions become more subtle and different. When fear comes up, dont walk away so that fear dissipates. Instead, stay. Allow yourself to feel the nervousness, the
41、sweating, and everything else that comes along with it. It is one of the hardest things to do in life, but its also one of the most rewarding. If you run, you are telling basic parts of your brain, “I guess this threat really was real. I better stay away from it.” You are training yourself to fear,
42、regardless of that situation. If you cling, you are saying, “Escape from this emotion is a threat”, and since it is not a happy experience, happiness slips through your hands like sand.Note that you can not fool yourself. Just allow the full emotion. You will never enter into their secret life until
43、 you stop running or clinging. To control your life, you need to actively train your emotions to be your ally (同盟). Observe. Describe. Appreciate. Do that and you may find you have allies for healthy living that were there all along.12. Why does the author mention “chocolate cake” and “spider” in pa
