A
Mre than 30 years ag, there was a well-knwn bxer named Eugene Hart. Hart was heavily favred t win his next rund against an ungifted bxer, Antuferm. It was said that the nly thing that Antuferm culd d was “he bled well". Hwever, here was an imprtant thing. He had gd qualities that yu culdn't see.
During the fight, Hart cntrlled Antuferm, kncking him dwn and giving him a gd beating. Antuferm absrbed the punishment that was dealt t him by his naturally superir ppnent, and he did it s well that Hart became discuraged. In the fifth rund, Hart began t tire, nt physically but mentally. Taking advantage f the situatin, Antuferm attacked and kncked Hart dwn, thus ending the fight.
When the fighters went back t their temprary restrms, nly a thin curtain was between them. Hart's rm was quiet, but n the ther side he culd hear Antuferm's cach talking abut wh wuld take the fighter t the hspital. Finally he heard Antuferm saying, "Every time he hit me with that left hk （左勾拳）t the bdy, I thught I was ging t quit. After the secnd rund, I thught if he hit me there again, I'd quit. I thught the same thing after the furth rund. But he stpped hitting me there."
At that mment, Hart began t weep. He was crying because fr the first time he under- std that Antuferm had felt the same way he had and even wrse. And the nly thing that distinguished the guy wh was talking frm the guy wh was crying was perseverance （毅力）. The cward （懦夫）and the her had the same emtins. They're bth humans.
The imprtant questin t ask yurself here is this： Hw des each man respnd t the tugh situatin that they are experiencing? Maybe yu are in a tugh psitin right nw r, if nt, ne might be cming. Hw will yu react? Like a her r a cward?

At the start f every wrking week, millins f peple arund the wrld get ready fr smething they d endlessly, jylessly and badly: a meeting.
The reasn is simple, says Madeleine de Hauke, a meeting cach and teacher in an Antwerp Management Schl. “We spend ur lives and huge amunts f mney n meetings, but there’s very little wrk that helps peple run them effectively.”
Madeleine is crrect. Running a meeting well takes skill. Peple need t knw ahead why they are meeting, what they are suppsed t achieve, wh really needs t be there and hw they shuld cntribute. That sunds bvius but it is nt, as anyne wh has been t a pintless meeting knws. Yet meeting leaders are expected t learn all this n the jb. I cannt remember ever being taught hw t rganize a meeting, and I have rarely had a jb requiring me t d it.
I als like Madeleine’s descriptins f what she calls the Meeting Mnsters: peple wh destry meetings with all srts f annying behavirs. There is the unkind ff-tpic speaker. The nn-stp nise in the backgrund. The cnfusing rambler whse speech is endless. The rude multi-tasker. The ne wh says nthing but emails later t say what was decided will never wrk.
The truble is, we are all meeting mnsters smetimes, says Madeleine. A gd meeting leader knws hw t stp this behavir, r make sure it never starts by making it clear what will and wn’t be allwed.
A bad meeting is like a virus (病毒). By failing t prduce gd decisins it ften requires anther meeting t be held, then anther and anther. Luckily there is n need fr a vaccine (疫苗), just a bit mre care and preparatin, and an understanding that there is n shame in being taught hw t lead a meeting well.
5. What cause bad meetings accrding t the authr?
A. Bring meeting activities.B. Untrained meeting leaders.
C. Careless meeting caches.D. Unreasnable meeting schedules.
6. Which is a typical behavir f a “Meeting Mnster”?
A. Never stpping his chatter.B. Scaring meeting attendees.
C. Always raising questins.D. Refusing t finish his tasks.
7. Why des the authr say “a bad meeting is like a virus”?
A. It makes the attendees sick.B. It fails t prduce decisins.
C. It results in mre meetings.D. It requires care and preparatin.
8. Which can be the best title fr the text?
A. Spend Mre fr Meeting AttendeesB. Get Ready fr Bad Meetings
C. Start the Week with a MeetingD. Kill the Meeting Mnsters
C

In her app under develpment, called Timeless, Alzheimer’s patients can scrll thrugh (上下滚动) phts f friends and family, and the app will tell them wh the peple are and hw they’re related t the patient. If a patient desn’t recgnize peple in the same rm, they can take a picture and the technlgy will als try t recgnize them.
The app als includes a simple cntacts screen that shws phts f family members alng with names.
