19.Educating girls quite possibly yields a higher rate of return than any other investment (投資)available in the developing world.Women's education may be unusual territory for economists(經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)家),but enhancing women's contribution to development is actually as much an economic as a social issue.And economics(經(jīng)濟(jì)因素),with its emphasis on incentives,provides guideposts that point to an explanation for why so many girls are deprived(剝奪)of an education.
  Parents in low-income countries fail to invest(投資)in their daughters because they do not expect them to make an economic contribution to the family:girls grow up only to marry into somebody else's family and bear children.Girls are thus seen as less valuable than boys and art kept at home to do housework while their brothers are sent to school-the prophecy (預(yù)言) becomes self-fulfilling,trapping women in a vicious circle (惡性循環(huán)) of neglect.
  An educated mother,on the other hand,has greater earning abilities outside the home and faces an entirely different set of choices.She is likely to have fewer but healthier children and can insist on the development of all her children,ensuring that her daughters are given a fair chance.The education of her daughters then makes it much more likely that the next generation of girls,as well as of boys,will be educated and healthy.
Few will dispute that educating women has great social benefits.But it has enormous economic advantages as well.Most obviously,there is the direct effect of education on the wages of female workers.Wages rise by 10 to 20 per cent for each additional year of schooling.Such big returns are impressive by the standard of other available investments,but they are just the beginning.Educating women also has a significant impact on health practices,including family planning.

9.You must think positively no matter how big a challenge is.If you think positively you will feel better and will be able to overcome challenges in life.Furthermore,meet an optimistic person and you will notice how motivated he is towards life.(36)GOn the other hand,negative thinking will only cause more depression in your life.
(37)D Don't be jealous of those who are successful around you.Instead,take inspiration from their success stories.This will make you motivated to get what you want.Moreover,you can also read books that are written by inspirational and successful personalities.

(39)C Hence,it is important to break your routine and do something different.Either you go on a vacation or learn a new skill,it is important to break the monotony in your daily life.
Human beings are extraordinary individuals who are able to complete the hardest tasks and achieve the impossible.It is important to get out of your comfort zone and try something different.(40)F.

B.Keeping yourself motivated is not a difficult task.
C.You might lose motivation by doing the same things over and over again.
D.One of the best ways to motivate oneself is to get inspired by other's success.
E.Do things that make you happy and find inspiration in possibly everything you see.
F.By doing so you will get motivated and your attitudes towards life will be positive.

10.Trust is in rare supply these days.People are having trouble trusting each other,according to an AP-GFK poll conducted in November 2013,which found that Americans are suspicious of each other in their everyday life.Only one-third of Americans say most people can be trusted-down from half who felt that way in 1972.A record high of nearly two-thirds says"you can't be too careful"in dealing with people in 2013.
This can be carried over into the workplace,where employees want their leaders to be more trustworthy.Employees have grown tired of unexpected outcomes resulting from the lack of preparation.They want to be informed of any change management efforts before-not after the fact.Employees desire to know what is expected of them and be given the opportunity to better themselves,rather than be told they are not qualified for new roles and responsibilities.
Here are four early warning signs for you to course-correct when employees are having trouble trusting their leaders.
Lack courage
Leaders that don't stand up for what they believe in are difficult to respect and trust.Too many leaders waste too much of their valuable time trying to act like other leaders in the organization-rather than attempting to establish their own identity and leadership style.Employees know that if their leaders are not savvy (精明) enough to move themselves into a position of greater influence,it will make it much more difficult for them to get noticed and discovered as well.When leaders lack the courage to enable their full potential and that of others,it becomes a challenge to trust.
Self-centered
When a leader is only looking out for themselves and lacks any sense of commitment to the advancement of their employees-this shuts off employees quickly.Great leaders are great coaches and are always looking to help their employees grow.When leaders lack any real desire to coach or'guide the career advancement of their employees-it becomes increasingly difficult for employees to trust them.But when leaders are too disruptive (指手畫(huà)腳),their employees sense that they are in it for themselves and/or don't trust the talent around them.
Reputation issues
When people begin to speak negatively about their leader,it makes it more difficult for others to trust their intentions.For example,look at what has happened to President Barack Obama since December 2009when his approval rating was 69%.Four years later,Obama's approval rating is at 43%.Many who have followed him for years are now having trouble trusting him.
Every leader must be aware that they are constantly being evaluated and thus they can never grow self-satisfied.When they do,this begins to negatively impact their reputation and the trust employees have in their leadership.
Inconsistent Behavior
People are more inclined to trust those who are consistent with their behavior.Isn't it easy to begin questioning one's judgment when they are inconsistent?When everyone but the leader is on board with a strategy-you begin to wonder if their intentions are to support the organization's advancement or their own.Leaders need to refresh their leadership style before they lose the trust of their employees.
This is what today leaders must consider:how to lead in new ways that focus less on oneself,but more on the betterment of a healthier whole.
Trust between employees and their leaders
Problem(71)Trust has been declining among Americans in their daily life as well as in the workplace.
Employees'hopes for leaders (72)worth/deserving trust●Employees want to be (73)informed to get prepared for any change management efforts in advance.
●Employees desire to know their leaders'expectations of them and want to get (74)opportunities/chances to better themselves.
Warnings for leaders to (75)avoid the breakdown of trust●Don't (76)copy/imitate other leaders and stand up for what you believe in.
●Be (77)committed/devoted/dedicated to helping your employees grow.
●Never let(78)self-satisfaction negatively impact your reputation.
●Behave (79)consistently or your judgment will be questioned.
SuggestionFor leaders,more focus on the betterment of a healthier whole should be taken into (80)consideration/account.

4.When Carla Fisher and her husband announced plans to travel the globe with their young daughters for a year,some friends called them crazy.
Seven years later,with wonderful memories and a book documenting their world travel,the Fishers now seem like global trailblazers (先驅(qū)者).
"It's really encouraging to hear that many other people want to educate their kids in that manner,"said Fisher.
Some parents are trying to raise knowledgeable and open-minded"world citizens".Others want to give their children the skills they'll need to compete globally.
"There is a huge amount of interest in spending time abroad at all stages of life and increasingly,as a family with children,"said Maya Frost,author of"The New Global Student…".She knows American families in every corner of the globe who have made that choice.
"There's so much more to education than school,"said Tessa Hill,who recently returned to her Houston-area home,after driving her family across North and Central America and Europe in a motor home for 13months."World travel is an education in people,cultures,language,travel skills,street smarts and in how lucky we are to live in the United States."
When Hill and her husband began considering extended global travel,their middle child,Charles,13,was surprised."My first reaction was‘well,are we really going to do this?'"Charles said."But it did sound like great fun."
Charles said missing his friends was the hardest part.He stayed in touch via e-mail and made some new friends along the way,playing soccer with kids in France and learning about rugby from youths in Ireland.
"I'd definitely recommend this to other kids,"Charles said."It was such a great opportunity to see different countries and learn geography a different way."
To make re-entry smoother,most school officials prefer that families work out an educational plan before they leave town.
"It sounds out-of-date,but it really opens up your mind and your eyes to the world,"said Robbin Goodman,17,a senior student who spent his junior year skateboarding across Beijing,China,when he wasn't studying Chinese history and other core subjects.
Had he not already taken a school-sponsored spring break trip with his mom to China in 2007,Robbin said he probably would not have been able to convince his parents to let him go alone for a year."I knew I would learn Chinese and all that,but my goal was to have a great time,"Robbin said.
"The biggest problem for those seriously considering going abroad is dealing with those who are against the idea,"said Frost.
"They gain the ability to take risks and to have confidence in themselves,"said Liz Pearlstein,founder of a global education consulting firm."When we came home from London,my daughter,who had been painfully shy before we left,said‘Mom,now I know there's nothing I can't do.'"
No one knows exactly how many American families are choosing the global education path,
but global education consultants say a growing number of parents are traveling for a year or more with their children.

Title:A real global(71)education:traveling abroad with kids for a year
Travelers'experiences and feelings
Carla Fisher●Courage is needed to take the(72)global/world travel for there are different voices.
●It is encouraging to hear more parents make such a similar
(73)decision/choice/plan.
Tessa Hill and Charles●World travel can help people learn more about cultures,languages and travel skills,etc.
●Charles made new friends along his way and (74)e-mailed his friends back home.
Robbin Goodman●One-year (75)stay/study in China alone can serve the purpose of having a good time.
Liz Pearlstein●World travel (76)enables kids to take risks and builds up confidence in themselves.
Opinions and suggestions
Maya Frost●There is an (77)increasing number of family traveling abroad with kids.Parents should take it into consideration how to deal with the opposite idea.
School officials●Parents had better help kids work out educational plans to make it (78)smoother/easier for them to return to school.
(79)Conclusion
Generally,more families in the USA(80)plan/choose/tendto travel abroad with kids for a year or more.
