Jeff Bezos Reveals His No. 1 Leadership Secret

Amazon has reached what its founder and CEO Jeff Bezos called "an interesting milestone.” The retailing giant so highly associated with books and then music and video, now has tens of millions of products in stock and a majority are non-media goods, from drills to tennis balls to almost anything else that can be shipped.

1. The 48-year-old has officially transformed Amazon, which he founded in 1994, from an online bookstore that sells other stuff to a retailer---and business services provider---that once sold mostly books. Amazon's stock is up 397 percent in the last five years.

So, what's behind the success of the world’s largest online retailer? 2. Bezos regularly leaves one seat open at meetings and informs all attendees that they should consider that seat occupied by their customer---the most important person in the room.

Always trying to find out what customers want, Bezos is even stricter about that customers don’t want. They hate delays, defects and out-of-stock products, so the company constantly looks to make them as rare as possible. 3. Amazon data show that a 0.1 second delay in page loading can translate into a one percent drop in customer activity.

But great customer service doesn’t fully explain Amazon's extraordinary success. For Bezos,a

data driven customer focus encourages him to take risks to innovate. Amazon's kindle, for example, came into being because Bezos believed millions would want an e-book reader that could download any book within 60 seconds. 4. Engineers were free to solve technical challenges as they saw fit, only needing to make it right for consumers.

Efficiency ---- cheapness, in the eyes of Amazon’s critics---is also an important part of the Amazon culture. In fact, Bezos liks the two. In 2009, Bezos declared that Amazon had begun fighting against waste. The more he could get rid of needless costs, the easier it would be to deliver rock-bottom prices to customers.

A. That turning point might be Bezos' greatest accomplishment

B. Amazon executives would tell you: the empty chair, the internal nickname of the figure that rule their lives.

C. Bezos could have done it earlier but he took over twenty years to compete that target

D. Even the tiniest delay in loading a web-page isn’t insignificant

E. Customers do enjoy quick delivery, quality products and great after-sales service.

F. He set that target without getting pinned down by technical issues.

    Aspirin has long been believed to help prevent heart attacks and strokes(中风).Some studies have shown that it also has a protective effect against certain types of cancer. As a result, some people religiously pop a low-dose(低剂量的) aspirin after breakfast every day (never take one on an empty stomach). But now its status as a wonder drug has come into question, following a meta-analysis of trial evidence.

A meta-analysis reviews the results of a large number of trials and can therefore come to more certain conclusions. This latest review was published this May in The Journal of the American Medical Association.It focused on the connection between aspirin use and cardiovascular(心血管的) and bleeding events. It found that the well-known risk that aspirin can cause internal bleeding is as great as the benefits of preventing heart attacks and strokes. In some cases, the risk even outweighs the benefits.

Aspirin thins the blood, thus helping to prevent blood clots (血栓). For his reason, it is a good drug for protecting people who have already had a heart attack or stroke from having another. However, the 164,225 people in these trials had no history of cardiovascular disease. They were monitored for an average of six years, during which time they took a daily aspirin or placebo(安慰剂).Among those who took aspirin, there were about 11% fewer heart attacks and strokes but 43% higher likelihood of a major bleeding episode in the stomach, brain or intestine(肠道).

Dr Sean Zheng, a cardiology(心脏病学) researcher at King’s College London, said that taking a daily aspirin couldn’t be recommended for healthy people. But there might still be a case for people with a higher risk of a heart attack or stroke, he added. However, it would be important to consider the bleeding risk.

“Aspirin use requires discussion between the patient and their physician, with the knowledge that any small potential cardiovascular benefits are weighed up against the real risk of severe bleeding." he said.

The findings reflect the average likelihood of bleeds or heart attacks among the patients in all the trials. There will be people among them who would be better off taking aspirin and those who will be worse. It's yet another situation where we need to weigh up our individual risk and benefit--- maybe with the help of an understanding GP.

1.Which of the following is NOT a reason why some people take an aspirin every day?

A.They want to lower their risk of having a heart attack

B.They hope to protect themselves against some cancers

C.They want to ensure they don't have a sick stomach

D.They aim to make sure they won't suffer another stroke

2.What can be concluded from the recent meta-analysis?

A.That aspirin does more harm than good to the human body

B.That aspirin frequently causes internal bleeding because it thins the blood

C.That previous research into the effects of aspirin on the human body was unreliable.

D.That taking aspirin is not worth the risk or those with no history of heart tacks or strokes.

3.What should people do before taking aspirin, according to the article?

A.To have a thorough physical examination

B.To ask for others' opinions on the internet.

C.To read the findings of new studies on aspirin

D.To talk with a doctor familiar with their condition

4.The article was probably written by ________

A.the director of a hospital

B.a public health journalist

C.the CEO of a medical company

D.a representative for an insurance company

    Even now she calls my attention every day to mispronounced words. All teachers of the deaf know what this means, and only they can at all appreciate the peculiar difficulties with which I had to contend.

I had to use the sense of touch in catching the vibrations (振动)of the throat, the movements of the mouth and the expression of the face; and often this sense was at fault. In such cases I was forced to repeat the words or sentences, sometimes for hours, until I felt the proper "ring" in my own voice. My work was practice, practice, practice. Discouragement and weariness cast me down frequently. But the next moment the thought that I should soon be at home and show my loved ones what I had accomplished renewed my courage and spurred(激励)me on, and I eagerly looked forward to their pleasure in my achievement.

“ My little sister will understand me now, " was a thought stronger than all obstacles. I was filled with joy while I anticipated the delight of talking to my dear mother and reading her responses from her lips. It astonished me to find how much easier it is to talk than to spell with the fingers, and I discarded the manual alphabet as a medium of communication on my part. But my teacher and a few friends still use it in speaking to me, for it is more convenient than lip reading.

Perhaps I had better explain our use of the manual alphabet, which seems to puzzle people who do not know us. One who reads or talks to me spells with his hand, using the single-hand manual alphabet usually employed by the deaf. The position of the hand is as easy to feel as it is to see. I do not feel each letter any more than you see each letter separately when you read. Constant practice makes the fingers very flexible, and some of my friends spell rapidly --about as fast as an expert writes on a typewriter. The mere spelling is, of course, no more a conscious act than it is in writing.

When I had made speech my own, I could not wait to go home. At last, the happiest of happy moments arrived.

1.According to the article, what kind of communication method did the author prefer?

A.Typing B.Lip reading

C.Finger spell D.Talk

2.To pronounce words correctly, the author had to do the following EXCEPT ________

A.Overcome a sense of failure and tiredness for hours

B.repeatedly practice words with patience

C.draw the attention of her highly demanding teacher

D.use the sense of touch in catching people's expression

3.Which of the following statements is NOT true?

A.Finger spelling is actually an unconscious act

B.The blind feel each letter separately when reading

C.It is easy for the deaf to use the manual alphabet

D.It is dull to repeat the same words for hours

4.It can be inferred from the article that the author is ________

A.conservative B.negative

C.positive D.humorous
