It is Sunday and lunch has, as usual, come to a hurried end．My wife and I are still sitting at the table．My wife likes to be in the life of her child, but I sometimes fear she is in too deep．She has the morning on an online student forum, asking questions about UCAS Dick．

“A lot of people haven’t had any offers yet,” she says． “I said I already had one．”

“Wait,” Dick says． “Are you to be me?”

“No, I have my own login details now,” she says．

“How do you know he isn’t his own mother pretending to be him?” Dick says．

Earlier, when we all sat down to lunch, Dick, who had been to parties the evening, came back．

“Who were there?” my wife asks Dick． “What was it like?”

“It was OK．” he says．

“Not good enough,” she says． “What was the worst thing happened?” My wife’s continued question a deepening, boring silence． I start to eat faster． There is a long, highly pause in the conversation．

“So,” she says , “was it a kissing party?”

“Oh my God!” shouts Dick, his fork． “What is wrong with you? Why are you like this?”

Surrounded by further scolds, lunch comes to a hurried end． Dick finds himself with clearing up． , the running of water and the sound of washing plates are the only sounds in the room．

“ at any time you’re prepared to apologize for being rude,” she says, “you can go and finish watching the football．”

“Are you joking?” he shouts． “No way! Why I apologize to you?”

He pauses to look into the bottom of a pan, and a smile across his face． “What I mean is, I’m really very sorry,” he says, dropping the pan into the sink and running from the room． “Bye!”

“You don’t have to worry,” my wife says． “In a ’s time, you’ll be 18 and I won’t be able to do this to you any more．”

“Really?” he says．

“You’ll be a（n） ,” she says．

The boy stops to consider the blue print that after a set seven days from then on, his parents will be to stop ruining his life． He looks both doubtful and a little alarmed．

I approaches my wife，whispering to her． “Dear, I agree with you—understanding and trust may be a good way to communicate with our teen children．”

What do you use to get around town? A car? A bike? Your feet ? perhaps you should try a segway!

The Segway is perfect for short journeys. It’s an electric vehicle that consists of a platform between two wheels, with a pole that connects the platform to the handlebars. To ride it , you step up onto the platform, and control the Segway by moving your body. Lean forwards to go faster, and back-wards to slow down.

On older models, direction was controlled by a twist grip（扭轉(zhuǎn)把手）on the left handlebar. This varies the speeds between the two motors, and a decrease in the speed of the left wheel would turn the Segway to the left . With newer models you simply lean to the left or right. Meanwhile, a gyroscope （陀螺儀）detects your movements and prevents the machine from falling over. The Segway has a maximum speed of 19 km per hour and a range of about 38 km. after that, you need to plug it and recharge the battery.

Segways are used for a variety of purposes. People with mobility problems can now enjoy walks in the country with their friends and family. Some golfers see them as an alternative to the golf cart . And dog owners now have an easier way to take the dog to the park. A few police forces use Segways, too. They allow officers to move quickly while maintaining contact with the public. They’re also becoming a common sight on airport . However, the most popular use is in tourism , particularly for city tours . Visit any major tourist city in summer, sit outside a cafe for a while and there’s a good chance you’ll see a group of tourists passing on Segways.

1.How do you turn to the left on a Segway of the new model?

A. Lean to the leftB. Adjust the twist grip

C. Press the left bar D. Control the gyroscope

2.How far can you travel on a Segway at most?

A. Less than 19 kmB. About 19 km

C. About 38 km D. Over 45 km

3.The Segway is most commonly used by .

A. familiesB. golfers

C. policeD. tourists

4.Which of the following correctly shows the order in which information about the Segway is provided?

A. Introduction→Ways of application→ structure→Principle of operation

B. Introduction→ Principle of operation→Structure →Ways of application

C. Introduction → Structure → Principle of operation →ways of application

D. Structure→ Introduction→Principle of operation→Ways of application

Leadership Training on the Importance of Cooperation

As we all know in order for a team to be successful they need to be able to effectively work together. Without cooperation within the team all of us members won’t be able to function at their fullest potential. And as a leader it would be your job to achieve cooperation within the whole team for only through this will you be able to achieve your goal with your team. This article will be helping you discover ways to bring out cooperation from the whole team. This would be teaching you on how to work with people through partnership which is based on mutual trust and respect. These are the vial things needed for the development of cooperation and teamwork which you need to focus in your leadership training.

Be loyal to your team

An organization is divided into two groups, the employees and the management. Most of the times the interests of the two groups don't go together and as a leader you would commonly be caught in between. You are a member of the management but you are working hand in hand with the employees. You also need to show concern for your team. Be on their side yet not compromising the management’s side. Let them understand that you know where they’re coming from. Through this you will gain their loyalty which is the basic component of cooperation.

Gain their trust

Gaining the trust of your members doesn't only give the chance to develop cooperation within the team. It also gives you the chance to gain loyalty from them. By gaining their loyalty they will be able to follow you without hesitation and doubt. However, gaining a person’s trust is more easily said than done but the most important thing required to gain a person’s trust is being genuine and consistent. Be always fair on all your members at all times.

Don't make them feel you’re just after your gains

In building a connection with your team, you should always make them feel that you’re not just using them for your own gains. You should learn that people don't like the feeling of being used by others. They would be discouraged and would tend not to do their best if they feel that way. You should make them feel that you’re pushing them not only for your own gains but also for their benefits. Avoid making them feel that you are just using them for your own reasons.

A team won’t ever be successful without teamwork and cooperation. Therefore as a leader try your very best to inspire teamwork on your team. Be a role model to your team and always show them that you are a team player. This would greatly encourage your team to follow your example.
