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.
Section III
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.
