15、ound 400 people nationwide are struck by lightning each year, and of those, 70 people die. That is, more people are killed by lightning than by tornadoes and hurricanes. Because lightning kills only one or two people at a time, its danger does not receive as much attention as other disasters. If you

16、 hear the thunder, you are in danger from lightning, said Rocky Lopes, a disaster educator at the American Red Cross. Thunder means that lightning is close enough to hit you at any time, so you should move indoors immediately and stay there until the storm has ended. The most important thing to reme

17、mber is to seek shelter, Lopes said. Summer is the peak time for lightning storms, so when lightning strikes across the sky, remember these safety tips: Stop working, fishing, swimming or playing in open fields.

22、assified as harmful and farmers try to keep their numbers down by shooting or poisoning them. Farmers can also call on the services of their local hunt to control the fox population. Hunting consists of pursuing a fox across the countryside, with a group of specially trained dogs, followed by men an

23、d women riding horses. When the dogs eventually catch the fox they kill it or a hunter shoots it. People who take part in hunting think of it as a sport; they wear a special uniform of red coats and white trousers, and follow strict codes of behaviour. But owning a horse and hunting regularly is exp

24、ensive, so most hunters are wealthy. It is estimated that up to 100,000 people watch or take part in fox hunting.

25、e kind of conflict between hunters and hunt saboteurs (怠工者). Sometimes these incidents lead to violence, but mostly saboteurs interfere with (阻碍) the hunt by misleading riders and disturbing the trail of the foxs smell, which the dogs follow.

26、 so common that they are almost as much a part of hunting as the pursuit of foxes itself. But this year supporters of fox hunting face a much bigger threat to their sport.

31、ffett said,“I will be the richest man one day, his friends made fun of his “daydreaming. But ever since then the little boy has set about learning how to make money by selling drinks, delivering newspapers and buying stocks. The American had already earned $9,000 (equal to $90,000 today) by the time

32、 he graduated from high school. And this month the 78-year-old man, who earned his fortune by making a lot of sound investment in the stock market, took the place of Microsoft founder, Bill Gates, as the worlds richest man. Gates worth declined $1.5 billion to $55.5 billion in 33 days after the rece

33、nt financial storm, according to Forbes Magazine. Buffett, the only son of a stockbroker, was ready to think outside the box to develop his business from a very early age. At 8, he went to golf courses collecting and selling the used balls. At 11 when he sold soda pop door-to-door with a friend, the

34、 pair collected lids on streets to judge which flavor was the most popular. As a paper boy during high school, Buffett delivered two competitor papers, so that even when customers canceled one of the subscriptions, he could still make a profit from the other. With his paper delivery savings, Buffett

35、 bought 162,000 square meters of farmland and collected rent. Young Buffett stepped into the stock market at 11 but earned only $5. The experience taught him one of the virtues in investing, patience. After graduating from university, Buffett started his venture with stocks with his childhood earnin

36、gs and money from friends. He researched the stocks and just bought those of solid companies that were undervalued and inexpensive at the time. By sticking to companies such as American Express and Coca-Cola, Buffett has become rich. “Learning is important to Buffetts success. He is a learning machi

42、rrible at saying no. I take on too many projects at once, and spend too much of my time doing things Id rather not be doing. I get stuff done, but its not always the best I can do, or the best way I could spend my time. Thats why my newest goal, both as a professional and a person, is to be a quitte

43、r. Being a quitter isnt being someone who gives up, who doesnt see important things through to the end. I aspire (渴望) to be the opposite of that. The quitter I want to be is someone who gets out when theres no value in what hes doing, or when that value comes at the expense of something more importa

44、nt. A friend of mine once told me: I knew I was an adult when I could stop reading a book, even after getting 500 pages into it. Odd though it sounds, we all tend to do this.

45、o much time in this, I might as well stick it out. I propose the opposite: quit as often as possible, regardless of project status or time invested.

46、 more, and quit. Instead of reading an entire book you hate, read half of a bad one and half of a good one. Isnt that a better use of your time? Step back for a second. Lets learn how to say no at the beginning, or in the middle, and free up more of our time to do the things wed like to be doing, and the things actually worth doing. Saying no is hard, and admitting a mistaken yes is even harder. Both if we do both, well start to make sure that were spending our time creating value, rather than increasing our losses. Lets be quitters together.41. The author
