things get better when we're self-controlled and
do our part in managing

But she hasn't always practiced what she teaches.
In her book, she describes
that awful day,
almost 40 years ago, when she received two pieces
of life-changing
news. First, she had lost the
baby she was carrying, and second, tests showed
that
she had diabetes. In a childlike act, she
left the hospital and treated herself to
a box
of doughnuts (甜甜圈). Years would pass before she
realized she had to grow

There are always
minorities, either people or enterprises, that
have absolute
advantage（绝对优势）in a field; the
majority apply their comparative
advantage（相
对优势） to professions where they do
their best to be effective players . Based on
comparative advantage, different divisions are
formed as international trade and the
globalized economy develop.
Oranges
are flourishing in Florida in the United States,
for example, shoes
are made perfectly in
Wenzhou of China, and people in both areas need
oranges and
- 3 -
shoes. In
Wenzhou, one could try to create an artificial
environment for orange trees
of an
international standard, and in Florida workers
could be trained to make shoes
as effectively
as workers in Wenzhou using the same resources.
However, the costs
would be too high. The best
solution, therefore, is to allow each location to
specialize in its own product, producing
enough to meet local needs and exporting
the
rest. As a result, people in both areas end up
with lower cost and higher quality
goods than
if each tried to produce both. It is obvious that
absolute advantage occurs
in this process.
However, absolute advantage may not
necessarily apply everywhere. For
instance, I
know a capable company boss, who is also an expert
in private cars and
very skillful at changing
car oil, even more efficiently than a mechanic,
But, almost
every time he drives his car to a
garage to have the oil changed by a mechanic since
he believes he can use the time to do
something more valuable. What he uses here is
his comparative advantage rather than absolute
advantage.
The same theory may also
apply to individual careers. You may not be the
best in a certain area, but still have a
comparative advantage, which will not be
reduced in relation to others’ absolute
advantage, and you can still find an
advantaged position in which your disadvantage
is smaller relative to others.
An
ordinary talent can, therefore, achieve
outstanding results by
rightfully exploring
his or her comparative advantage. In this sense,
we may say that
comparative advantage really
works.
the example about orange in
Florida and shoes in Wenzhou ,we can draw the
conclusion that _____.
A. the field in
Wenzhou can be improved to grow oranges .
B.
Florida workers could be trained to make shoes .
C. we should fully use our absolute advantage
in our advantaged field.
D. our comparative
advantage is equal to our absolute one as to
making fortunes .
doesn’t the capable company
boss change his car oil himself ? _____
A. The
mechanic is more efficient than him .
- 4 -
B. He needn’t do it by himself for his
riches..
C. He would rather do something more
valuable .
D. Changing oil is beyond his
ability.
of the following is right according
to paragraph 4. ? _____
A. You should use your
absolute advantage in your work definitely .
B. You must work hard to improve your absolute
advantage to be the best worker .
C. If
other’s absolute advantage is larger , your
comparative advantage is smaller .
D.
Sometimes you may still use your comparative
advantage to find your advantaged
position .
article can be entitled “_____”.
A. The
Advantage of Comparative Advantage.
B. The
Advantage of Absolute Advantage
C. Absolute
Advantage—the secret to make different talents
D. Comparative Advantage—the way to achieve
outstanding results

Milles's most
famous play,

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
Sometimes you’ll hear people say that you
can’t love others until you love
yourself.
Sometimes you’ll hear people say that you can’t
expect someone else to
love you until you love
yourself. Either way, you’ve got to love yourself
first and
this can be tricky. Sure we all know
that we’re the apple of our parents’ eyes,
and
that our Grandmas think we’re great talents and
our Uncle Roberts think that
- 7 -
we will go to the Olympics. But
sometimes it’s a lot harder to think such nice
thoughts
about ourselves. If you find that
believing in yourself is a challenge, it is time
you build a positive self-image and learn to
love yourself.
Self-image is your own mind’s
picture of yourself. This image includes the way
you look, the way you act, the way you talk
and the way you think. Interestingly,
our
self-images are often quite different from the
images others hold about us.
Unfortunately,
most of these images are more negative than they
should be. Thus
changing the way you think
about yourself is the key to changing your self-
image and
your whole world.
The best way
to defeat a passive self-image is to step back and
decide to stress
your success. That is, make a
list if you need to, but write down all of the
great
things you do every day. Don’t allow
doubts to occur in it.
It very well might be
that you are experiencing a negative self-image
because
you can’t move past one flaw or
weakness that you see about yourself. Well, roll
up your sleeves and make a change of it as
your primary task. If you think you’re
silly
because you aren’t good at math, find a tutor. If
you think you’re weak because
you can’t run a
mile, get to the track and practice. If you think
you’re dull because
you don’t wear the latest
trends, buy a few new clothes. But remember, just
because
you think it doesn’t mean it’s true.
The best way to get rid of a negative self-
image is to realize that your image
is far
from objective, and to actively convince yourself
of your positive qualities.
Changing the way
you think and working on those you need to improve
will go a long
way towards promoting a
positive self-image. When you can pat yourself on
the back,
you’ll know you’re well on your way.
Good luck!
