This lesson is a part of our leadership series. Let me start by sharing a story of Richard Rochester, one of the most successful businessmen in Britain. ⑰Years ago, I was given the task of organizing a conference in the south of England. I chose a five-star hotel owned by Rochester as the venue. Susan, the receptionist, helped me arrange everything perfectly. Once when we were chatting, I asked Susan if she’d ever met Mr. Rochester. She said yes. ⑱Shortly after Mr. Rochester bought the hotel, he made an appointment to see the hotel manager. When he arrived, the first person he met was Susan, who was cleaning the carpet. He chatted with Susan for 30 minutes before keeping his appointment with the manager. ⑱He spent all day at the hotel talking with each member of the staff, from the top guy to the lady who cleaned the toilets. ⑲Six months later, Mr. Rochester paid another visit. Susan had been promoted to receptionist, but he recognized her immediately and addressed her by name. He even remembered that she had a little girl and what her name was. Now, I don’t believe that Richard Rochester has that good memory. He must have written a lot of notes after his first visit and read them over again before that second visit. It’s time-consuming, ⑳but it shows the importance he places on human relationships. I think that’s one of the secrets of his success. 领导力系列课程 组织一次会议 会场 接待员 预约 地毯 员工 从…到 卫生间 升职 称呼 耗时的 place importance on… 对… 重视 译文 大家早上好。这堂课是我们领导力系列课程的一部分。让我通过分享理查德·罗切斯特的故事开始，他是英国最成功的企业家之一。多年前，我被赋予了在英格兰南部组织一次会议的任务。我选择了罗切斯特先生旗下的一家五星级酒店作为会场。苏珊，接待员，帮我完美地安排了一切。有次闲聊时，我问苏珊是否见过罗切斯特先生。她说见过。在罗切斯特先生买下酒店不久后，他预约见了酒店经理。当他到达时，遇到的第一个人是正在清洁地毯的苏珊。在与经理会面之前，他与苏珊聊了30分钟。他花了整整一天时间在酒店与每位员工交谈，从高层到打扫卫生的女士，无一遗漏。六个月后，罗切斯特先生再次来访。苏珊已经升职成为接待员，但他立刻认出了她，并直呼其名。他甚至记得她有个小女儿，以及女儿的名字。现在，我不相信理查德·罗切斯特的记忆会那么好。第一次访问后，他肯定记了很多笔记，并在第二次访问前再次复习。虽然耗时，但这显示了他对于人际关系的重视。我认为这是他成功的关键之一。 GOOD MORING 阅读A篇 The Carlow Autumn Walking Festival is a great opportunity for the beginner, experienced or advanced walker to enjoy the challenges of Carlow’s mountain hikes or the peace of its woodland walks.

Yes, we all have our phones, but many of us still like to go old school and read something printed. Well, there’s a kiosk (小亭) for that. In the San Francisco Bay Area, at least. “You enter the fare gates (检票口) and you’ll see a kiosk that is lit up and it tells you can get a one-minute, a three-minute, or a five-minute story,” says Alicia Trost, the chief communications officer for the San Francisco Bay Area Rapid Transit—known as BART. “You choose which length you want and it gives you a receipt—like short story.” It’s that simple. Riders have printed nearly 20,000 short stories and poems since the program was launched last March. Some are classic short stories, and some are new original works. Trost also wants to introduce local writers to local riders. “We wanted to do something where we do a call to artists in the Bay Area to submit stories for a contest,” Trost says. “And as of right now, we’ve received about 120 submissions. The winning stories would go into our kiosk and then you would be a published artist.” Ridership on transit (交通) systems across the country has been down the past half century, so could short stories save transit? Trost thinks so. “At the end of the day all transit agencies right now are doing everything they can to improve the rider experience. So I absolutely think we will get more riders just because of short stories,” she says. And you’ll never be without something to read.

(submit) Practice GOOD MORING 阅读C篇 We all know fresh is best when it comes to food. However, most produce at the store went through weeks of travel and covered hundreds of miles before reaching the table. While farmer’s markets are a solid choice to reduce the journey, Babylon Micro-Farm(BMF) shortens it even more. BMF is an indoor garden system. It can be set up for a family. Additionally, it could serve a larger audience such as a hospital, restaurant, or school. The innovative design requires little effort to achieve a reliable weekly supply of fresh greens. Specifically, it’s a farm that relies on new technology. By connecting through the Cloud, BMF is remotely monitored. Also, there is a convenient app that provides growing data in real time. Because the system is automated, it significantly reduces the amount of water needed to grow plants. Rather than watering rows of soil, the system provides just the right amount to each plant. After harvest, users simply replace the plants with a new pre-seeded pod (容器)to get the next growth cycle started. Moreover, having a system in the same building where it’s eaten means zero emissions (排放) from transporting plants from soil to salad. In addition, there’s no need for pesticides and other chemicals that pollute traditional farms and the surrounding environment. BMF employees live out sustainability in their everyday lives. About half of them walk or bike to work. Inside the office, they encourage recycling and waste reduction by limiting garbage cans and avoiding single-use plastic. “We are passionate about reducing waste, carbon and chemicals in our environment, ” said a BMF employee. C What can be learned about BMF from paragraph 1? A. It guarantees the variety of food. B. It requires day-to-day care. C. It cuts the farm-to-table distance. D. It relies on farmer’s markets. 29. What information does the convenient app offer? A. Real-time weather changes. B. Current condition of the plants. C. Chemical pollutants in the soil. D. Availability of pre-seeded pods. 30. What can be concluded about BMF employees? A. They have a great passion for sports. B. They are devoted to community service. C. They are fond of sharing daily experiences. D. They have a strong environmental awareness. 31. What does the text mainly talk about? A. BMF’s major strengths. B. BMF’s general management. C. BMF’s global influence. D. BMF’s technical standards. 阅读C篇 说明文 人与社会（词数：268+105=373）难度：中 主旨大意： 本文是一篇说明文, 介绍了一种室内花园系统一一巴比伦微农场(BMF), 它不仅能为家庭和大型机构提供新鲜蔬菜, 还能利用云技术远程监控和自动化操作, 促进了可持续性和环保。 阅读C篇原文出处：https://inhabitat.com/these-micro-farms-put-a-new-spin-to-farm-to-table/ 我们都知道，当涉及到食物时，新鲜总是最好的。然而，超市里的大多数农产品在到达餐桌前，都经历了数周的长途跋涉，覆盖了数百英里的距离。虽然农民市场是一个减少这段距离的可靠选择，但巴比伦微型农场（BMF）更是将这段距离大大缩短。 We all know fresh is best when it comes to food.

Travel promotes understanding, expands our minds, makes us better people, and boosts local economies and communities, but the rapid growth of travel has led to overtourism in certain regions and destinations. So, should we stop traveling? Certainly not. The loss of what travel offers would be unacceptable in today’s world. Here are some tips on making wise decisions to minimize pressure on the places we visit and improve our experience. ●Choose mindfully. Overvisited destinations are that way for a reason: they’re special. With so many online posts featuring the same places, it’s easy to feel like you’re missing out. Go somewhere only when the landscape, culture or food deeply draws you. Travel for you and no one else. ●Get creative. The best way to ease pressure on over-touristed destinations is to go somewhere else. Though overtourism is described as a problem affecting the entire world, it’s actually concentrated to a small number of extremely popular spots. That means you have tons of less-visited options to choose from. You can still find relatively undiscovered places. Why not try a regional alternative or check out a popular destination’s lesser-known sights? ●Visit during off-peak times. Minimize impact and maximize experience by skipping major holidays or rush hour. You’ll compete with fewer tourists, save money, experience a different side of a popular place, and boost the economy when tourism is traditionally slower. Visiting a place that others call home is a privilege (荣幸). Do your part to preserve what makes a destination special in the first place. Consider giving back to the communities you’re visiting.

I liked traveling in France, but when it came to picking my favorite spot to settle, Italy was the clear winner. During my first visit to Italy, I struggled to ask for directions or order in a restaurant. But every time I tried to string a sentence of Italian together, the locals smiled at me and praised my language skills. That encouragement helped me to get through the language barrier. After I made Italy my permanent home, I discovered how warm-hearted Italians are. Neighbors will bring me freshly made cheese and will come to my door to remind me to close the window in my car when rain is coming. It’s these small acts of kindness that make a new country feel like home. As a foodie, the way to my heart is through my stomach, and nowhere fuels my appetite quite like Italy. Each town has its own traditional dish, and every family keeps a recipe passed from one generation to another.

Recalling (recall) watching a Chinese opera version of Shakespeare’s play Richard III in Shanghai and meeting Chinese actors who came to Stratford a few years ago to perform parts of The Peony Pavilion, Edmondson said, “It was very exciting to hear the Chinese language and see how Tang’s play was being performed.” 语法填空 新闻报道 人与社会 （词数：208） 难度：中 Chinese cultural elements commemorating (纪念) Tang Xianzu, who is known as “the Shakespeare of Asia, ” add an international character to Stratford-upon-Avon, William Shakespeare’s hometown. 融入纪念被誉为“亚洲莎士比亚”的汤显祖的中国文化元素，为威廉·莎士比亚的故乡埃文河畔斯特拉特福增添了一份国际色彩。 commemorate / kəˈmeməreɪt / / ˈʃeɪkspɪr / / ˈeɪʒə/ /ˌstrætfərd əpɒn ˈeɪvən/ 语法填空 新闻报道 人与社会 （词数：208） 难度：中 Tang and Shakespeare were contemporaries and both died in 1616.

Knowing that you’re fond of painting, I could hardly wait to tell you my captivating experience from our art class. You cannot imagine how meaningful and interesting it was! Last Friday witnessed our arriving at the park, embarking on capturing the picturesque scene of the park itself. Immersed in the process of painting, I felt a profound connection with nature, giving me perfect inspiration and a sense of tranquility and freedom. It was as if the colors themselves were speaking to my soul. Before I knew it, my painting brought to life the vibrant beauty of nature—the blooming flowers, the azure sky, and the verdant green trees. It was truly an enriching experience that I’d like to share with you. Not only has it had my creativity unleashed and my appreciation for nature awakened, but also the fond memories it left will forever hold a special place in my heart. Looking forward to hearing about your adventures!

I had planned to fly to Vienna and take a bus to Prague for a conference. Due to a big storm, my flight had been delayed by an hour and a half. I touched down in Vienna just 30 minutes before the departure of the last bus to Prague. The moment I got off the plane, I ran like crazy through the airport building and jumped into the first taxi on the rank without a second thought. That was when I met Gunter. I told him where I was going, but he said he hadn’t heard of the bus station. I thought my pronunciation was the problem, so I explained again more slowly, but he still looked confused. When I was about to give up, Gunter fished out his little phone and rang up a friend. After a heated discussion that lasted for what seemed like a century, Gunter put his phone down and started the car. Finally, with just two minutes to spare we rolled into the bus station. Thankfully, there was a long queue (队列) still waiting to board the bus. Gunter parked the taxi behind the bus, turned around, and looked at me with a big smile on his face. “We made it,” he said. Just then I realised that I had zero cash in my wallet. I flashed him an apologetic smile as I pulled out my Portuguese bankcard. He tried it several times, but the card machine just did not play along. A feeling of helplessness washed over me as I saw the bus queue thinning out. At this moment, Gunter pointed towards the waiting hall of the bus station. There, at the entrance, was a cash machine. I jumped out of the car, made a mad run for the machine, and popped my card in, only to read the message: “Out of order. Sorry.” 续写 九月的一个寒冷、潮湿且难忘的夜晚，我遇见了冈特。我本计划飞往维也纳，然后乘坐大巴前往布拉格参加一个会议。由于一场大风暴，我的航班被延误了一个半小时。在前往布拉格的末班车发车前仅仅30分钟，我才抵达维也纳。一下飞机，我就疯狂地穿过机场大楼，不假思索地跳上了路边第一辆出租车。 I met Gunter on a cold, wet and unforgettable evening in September.

I hastened to add, “I know we’ve just met but I am going to be back in Vienna in 4 days’ time. If it’s OK with you I can pay you the money then.” He frowned for a moment and then said, “Don’t worry. That’s a deal.” Relief flooded through me. I was speechless, overwhelmed by his kindness and thoughtfulness. I thanked him profusely. With that, I dashed for the bus just as the doors were closing. Four days later, when I was back in Vienna, I called Gunter as promised. He was happy to hear from me. We arranged to meet at the same location where we had first encountered each other. We embraced like long lost friends. Gunter told me that he wasn’t sure whether I was going to show up but was happy to hear my voice when I called him. I gave Gunter an extra tip for the trouble and delay which he would not accept. He told me to call him, the next time I was in Vienna and buy him a beer, which I happily agreed to. If my faith in humanity was wavering, Gunter restored it. 我跑回到冈特身边，告诉他这个坏消息。我赶忙补充说：“我知道我们刚认识，但我四天后就会回到维也纳。如果方便的话，我那时可以付钱给你。”他皱了一会儿眉，然后说：“别担心。一言为定。”我如释重负。我感动得说不出话来，被他的善良和体贴深深打动。我连连向他道谢。说完，我就冲上了即将关门的公交车。 四天后，当我回到维也纳时，我如约给冈特打了电话。他很高兴接到我的电话。我们约定在我们第一次见面的同一个地方见面。我们像久别重逢的朋友一样拥抱在一起。冈特告诉我，他不确定我是否会出现，但当我打电话给他时，他很高兴听到我的声音。我给了冈特一笔额外的小费作为对他的麻烦和等待的补偿，但他拒绝了。他告诉我，下次来维也纳时给他打电话，请他喝啤酒，我欣然同意。如果我对人性的信仰动摇了，冈特让我重新坚定了信念。 译文 Thanks for your attentive listening! null 1275623.6 141480.0 12672.0 26352.0 30240.0 37440.0 30744.0 99432.0 17928.0 20304.0 13608.0 25632.0 115632.0 20520.0 18144.0 34776.0 17352.0 23904.0 117456.0 117504.0 33264.0 19728.0 28440.0 17352.0 15552.0 83304.0 12888.0 17568.0 18360.0 14616.0 19872.0 78912.0 10656.0 12672.0 10224.0 16272.0 11880.0 16488.0 111888.0 65568.0 $$
