Five Ways to Win Over Everyone in the Office

Is it possible to like everyone in your office? Think about how tough it is to get

together 15 people, much less 50, who all get along perfectly. But unlike in

friendships, you need coworkers. You work with them every day and you depend on

them just as they depend on you. Here are some ways that you can get the whole

office on your side

41.____  

If you have a bone to pick with someone in your workplace, you may try stay

tight-lipped around them. But you won't be helping either one of you. A Harvard

Business School study found that observers consistently rated those who were frank

about themselves more highly, while those who hid lost trustworthiness. The lesson is

not that you should make your personal life an open book, but rather, when given the

option to offer up details about yourself or painstakingly conceal them, you should

just be honest.

42._____

Just as important as being honest about yourself is being receptive to others. We

often feel the need to tell others how we feel, whether it's a concern about a project, a

stray thought, or a compliment. Those are all valid, but you need to take time to hear

out your coworkers, too. In fact, rushing to get your own ideas out there can cause

colleagues to feel you don't value their opinions. Do your best to engage coworkers in

a genuine, back- and-forth conversation, rather than prioritizing your own thoughts.

43._____

It's common to have a“cubicle mate" or special confidant in a work setting. But

in addition to those trusted coworkers, you should expand your horizons and find out

about all the people around you. Use your lunch and coffee breaks to meet up with

colleagues you don't always see. Find out about their lives and interests beyond the

job. It requires minimal effort and goes a long way. This will help to gTow your

internal network, in addition to being a nice break in the work day.

44._____

Positive feedback is important for anyone to hear. And you don't have to be

someone's boss to tell them they did an exceptional job on a particular project. This

will help engender good will in others. But don't overdo it or be fake about it. One

study found that people responded best to comments that shifted from negative to

positive, possibly because it suggested they had won somebody over.

45.______

This one may be a bit more difficult to pull off, but it can go a long way to

achieving results. Remember in dealing with any coworker what they appreciate from

an interaction. Watch out for how they verbalize with others. Some people like small

talk in a meeting before digging into important matters, while other are more

straightforward. Jokes that work one person won't necessarily land with another, So,

adapt your style accordingly to type. Consider the person that you re dealing with in

advance and what will get you to your desired outcome.

Translation

46.Directions：Translate the following text into Chinese.Write your translation on the ANSWER SHEET.(15 points)

It's almost impossible to go through life without experiencing some kind of

failure. People who do so probably live so cautiously that they go nowhere. Put

simply, they’re not real living at all. But, the wonderful thing about failure is that it's  

entirely up to us to decide how to look at it.

We can choose to see failure as"the end of the world, "or as proof of just how

inadequate we are. Or, we can look at failure as the incredible learning experience that

it often is. Every time we fail at something, we can choose to look for the lesson we're

meant to learn. These lessons are very important; they're how we grow, and how we

keep from making that same mistake again. Failures stop us only if we let them.

Failure can also teach us things about ourselves that we would never have learned

otherwise.

For instance, failure can help you discover how strong a person you are. Failing

at something can help you discover your truest friends, or help you find unexpected

motivation to succeed.
