1、Passage 10Your boss holds your future prospects in his hands. Some bosses are hard to get along with.
Some have excellent qualifications but no idea when it comes to dealing with people. Of course,
not all bosses are like that.
The relationship you have with your boss can be a major factor in determining your rise up
the career ladder. Your boss is not only your leader, he is also the person best equipped to help you
do the job you are paid to do. He can inform you of company direction that may affect your
professional development.
Your boss also needs you to perform at your best in order to accomplish his objectives. He
needs your feedback in order to provide realistic and useful reports to upper management. But
how does this help you establish a meaningful working relationship with your boss?
The key is communication. Learn and understand his goals and priorities (优先的事).
Observe and understand your boss‘s work style. If he has not been clear with his expectations, ask!
Likewise, ask for feedback and accept criticism gracefully. And if he understands that you do not
view your job as just something to fill the hours between 9 and 5, he may be more likely to help
you.
In short, getting along with your boss requires getting to know his likes and dislikes and
learning to work with his personality and management style. 4. The most important factor for establishing a good working relationship with the boss is

1、Passage 17
Since we are social beings, the quality of our lives depends in large measure on our interpersonal relationships. One strength of the human conditions is our tendency to give and receive support from one another under stressful circumstances. Social support consists of the exchange of resources among people based on their interpersonal ties. Those of us with strong support systems appear better able to cope with life changes and daily hassles. People with strong
social ties live longer and have better health than those without such ties. Studies over a range of illnesses, from depression to heart disease, reveal that the presence of social support helps people fend off illness, and the absence of such support makes poor health likely.
Social support cushions stress in a number of ways. First, friends, relatives, and co-workers may let us know that they value us. Our self-respect is strengthened when we feel accepted by others despite our faults and difficulties. Second, other people often provide us with informational support. They help us to define and understand our problems and find solutions to them. Third, we typically find social companionship supportive. Engaging in leisure-time activities with others helps us to meet our social needs while at the same time distracting us from our worries and troubles. Finally, other people may give us instrumental support ― financial aid, material resources and needed services — that reduces stress by helping us resolve and cope with our problems.5.Social companionship is beneficial in that( ).
