When I was a child, I spent more than ten years learn the violin. Therefore, I couldn’t understand “real music”. After I graduated at high school, a friend of mine suggested that we started to learn the guitar because we all thought it was cool. I will never forget the day on that we went to buy guitars in the guitar store. There I saw a guitar player playing the guitar, which I really enjoyed, and he became my the first guitar teacher. It took me such a long time choose a guitar among several wonderful model. Now the guitar is the most importantly part of my life and I practice it every day.

I arrived in the classroom, ready to share my knowledge and experience with 75 students who would be my English Literature class. Having taught in for 17 years, I had no about my ability to hold their attention and to on them my admiration for the literature of my mother tongue.
I was shocked when the monitor shouted, “ !” and the entire class rose as I entered the room, and I was somewhat about how to get them to sit down again, but once that awkwardness (尴尬) was over, I quickly my calmness and began what I thought was a fact-packed lecture, sure to gain their respect --- perhaps their admiration. I went back to my office with the rosy glow which comes from a sense of achievements.
My students diaries. However, as I read them, the rosy glow was gradually by a strong sense of sadness. The first diary said, “Our literature teacher didn’t teach us anything today. her next lecture will be better.” Greatly surprised , I read diary after diary , each expressing a theme (主题). “Didn’t I teach them anything? I described the entire philosophical (哲学的) framework of Western thought and laid the historical for all the works we’ll study in class,” I complained. “How they say I didn’t teach them anything?”
It was a long term, and it became clear that my ideas about education were not the same as of my students. I thought a teacher’s job was to raise questions and provide enough background so that students could their own conclusions. My students thought a teacher’s job was to provide information as directly and clearly as possible. What a difference!
, I also learned a lot, and my experience with my Chinese students has made me a American teacher, knowing how to teach in a different culture.

Tips to Become More Confident
Our confidence plays an important role in ability to achieve success and happiness. It affects our mental thought patterns, the way we speak and act, and the decisions we make in all areas of our lives. Confident people take more action, perform better, and are more likely to attain their goals. 1. Lucky for us, confidence can be built and strengthened until it becomes natural, just as any other habit. It simply takes a little time, some effort, and a bit of attention.
1. Fail more often.
The more challenges you take on, the more failures you’ll have, but learning that you can recover, get up and push forward builds confidence.
2. 2.
Keep a list of successes, big and small. It’ll help you to see your abilities in a more positive and realistic light.
3. Start a con
versation.
When you find yourself in a social situation, don’t always turn to those people you’re comfortable with. 3. Eventually getting to know new people will become easier.
4. Don’t compare.
Stop measuring yourself against others. 4. Making comparisons is 
a damaging and an inaccurate measure of success anyway.
Confidence helps you to be more secure in your abilities and more positive in your attitude. It also encourages you to be more assertive(坚定自信的) to take on more challenges, and to improve your skills. 5. The end result is a better outlook, more success, and a higher quality of life in all areas.
Recently a lot of managers complain that their employees don’t work hard and what they care about is only how much money they can get.
How does this happen? I t
hink it is time for them to think about that seriously now.
Shakespeare once said that “some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them”. So it is with leadership. Some persons are born with the ability of leadership. Some gain that art by watching and studying the actions of those around them. Other persons find themselves forced into special situations which require them to make the best of the resources they never realized they had and events bring out strong leadership. Most of us are never put to such tests. Most of us are not born leaders.
We often hear people say, “He is a great fellow to work for.” We see workers try their best to do things for certain managers. We see them carry out instructions cheerfully and well or even add something to the doing of the job which was unexpected. In other words, they put themselves into the job and give it their “extra effort” which people give only when they feel that they are part of the team, that they are making a contribution to its success, and that their contributions are understood and appreciated by their managers.
However, this is not something which happens naturally or by chance. It is built on one-to-one relationship. It is a reflection of a person’s attitudes toward the job, the manager and the company. Where it exists, it has been developed over a period, as a result of three simple factors: confide
nce, cooperation and understanding of their manager who understands them, appreciates their efforts and tries to give them all a fair deal.
1.The author quotes Shakespeare's words in order to ________．
A．introduce the topic of the passage
B．stress the importance of good leadership

2.According to the author, as a manager, you should ________．
A．understand and appreciate your workers and their contributions
B．make good use of those workers born willing to work hard for you
C．treat different workers in different ways and different attitudes
D．not only control your workers but understand and appreciate them
3.Most people gain the art of leadership because ________．
A．they are born with the ability of it
B．they are always put into some special tests
C．they are much wiser than others
D．they like to watch and study the actions of others
