I have loved reading adventure books since I was a child. ”Since 1970，Miss Lee has always been on trips，tr avelling to different parts of the world with a backpack and a sleeping bag.She said that these journeys changed her values. “After visiting these places，I started to treasure my life much more than before. During this time，I came to realize how small I am in the universe，but nothing in this world is unsolvable.”Miss Lee said she had a lot of unforgettable experiences on her journeys. There was one terrible storm at sea when she was returning from the South Pole. The whole team was happy to be returning home after a one－year stay at the South Pole. During the storm, waves reached heights of up to 30 meters，as high as a 10－story building. She stayed calm at the time and took steps to protect their research findings.

Luckily they all survived，but she came away from the experience with a realization about the power of nature.Miss Lee is also the founder of the China Polar Museum Foundation.

Effective teamwork certainly needs a great deal of hard work and compromise. There are a number of factors that must be in place to make a good team.Effective leadership is one of the most important components of good teamwork. The team's leader should possess the skills to create and preserve a positive working environment and motivate and inspire the team members to take a positive approach to work and be highly committed. An effective team leader will promote a high level of spirit and make them feel supported and valued.Communication is a vital factor of all interpersonal relationship and especially that of a team. Team members must be able to articulate their feelings, express plans and goals,share ideas and see each other's opinions.Conflicts will arise no matter how well a team functions together. The best way to deal with conflicts is to have some organized methods of handling conflicts. Team members should be able to voice their concerns without fear of offending others. Instead of avoiding conflict issues, a hands­on approach that settl es them quickly is much better. It is often advised that the team leader sit with the conflicting parties and help work out their differences without taking sides and trying to remain objective if possible.The team leader must set a good example to create good teamwork. In order to keep team members positive and committed and motivated, the team leader herself/himself needs to show these qualities. The team turns to the leader for support and guidance. So any negative words or behaviours on the leader's part can be disastrous.Regardless of what type of work you are in, knowing how to effectively work with a team is going to be extremely important to your success and that of your team.28.

How to Handle Conflicts in a TeamDResearchers at the University of Kansas say that people can accurately（精确地，准确地） judge 90 percent of a stranger's personality simply by looking at the person's shoes. “Shoes convey useful information about their wearers，”the authors wrote in the new study published in the Journal of Research in Personality.Lead researcher Omri Gillath said the judgments were based on the style，cost，color and condition of someone's shoes. In the study，63 University of Kansas researchers lookedat pictures showing 208 different pairs of shoes worn by the study's participants. Volunteers in the study were photographed in their most commonly worn shoes，and then filled out a personality questionnaire.Some of the results were expected：People with higher incomes most commonly wore expensive sho es，and flashier shoes were typically worn by outgoing people. However，some of the more specific results are strange enough. For example，“practical and functional”shoes were generally worn by more “pleasant” people，while ankle boots were more linked with “aggressive”personalities. The strangest of all may be that those who wore “uncomfortable looking” shoes tend to have “calm” personalities.And if you have several pairs of new shoes or take extreme care of them，you may suffer from “attachment anxiety”，spending lots of time worrying about what other people think of your appearance. There was even a political calculation in the mix with more liberal(主张变革的)types wearing “shabbier and less expensive” shoes.The researchers noted that some people will choose shoe styles to mask their actual personalities，but researchers noted that volunteers were also likely to be unaware that their footwear choices were showing the deep side of their personalities.32.What does this text m ainly tell us?A. Shoes can hide people's real personalities.B. Shoes convey false information about the wearer.C. People's personalities can be judged by their shoes.D. People know little about their personalities.33.The participants were asked to .A. provide pictures of their shoesB. look at pictures of different shoesC. design a personality questionnaireD. hand in their commonly worn shoes34. Which of the results is beyond people's expectation?A. Wealthy people often wear expensive shoes.B. Pleasant people like wearing uncomfortable shoes.C. Aggressive people are likely to wear ankle boots.D. Flashier shoes are typically worn by outgoing people.35. People suffering from “attachment anxiety” tend to .A. wear strange shoesB. worry about their appearanceC. have a calm characterD. become a political leader第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
