21、yles husband, an engineer, took his four children up for an early morning cup of tea, packed a small case and was never seen or heard from again. Eileen was astonished and in a state of despair. They had been a happy family and, as far as she knew, there had been nothing wrong with their marriage.Ev

22、ery day of the year a small group of men and women quietly pack a few belongings and, without so much as a note or a good-bye, close the front door for the last time, leaving their debts, their worries and their confused families behind them. Last year, more than 1,200 men and nearly as many women w

23、ere reported missing from home the highest in 15 years. Many did return home within a year, but others rejected the past completely and are now living a new life somewhere under a different identity.To those left behind this form of desertion is a terrible blow to their pride and self-confidence. Ev

24、en the finality of death might be preferable. At least it does not imply rejection or failure. Worse than that, people can be left with an unfinished marriage, not knowing whether they will have to wait seven years before they are free to start a fresh life.Clinical psychologist Paul Brown believes

25、most departures of this kind to be well planned rather than impulsive. “Its typical of the kind of personality which seems able to ignore other peoples pain and difficulties. Running away, like killing yourself, is a highly aggressive act. By creating an absence the people left behind feel guilty, u

26、pset and empty.”41. Eileen Doyle reacted that way after her husbands leaving, because she_.A. failed to hear from him for a long timeB. had no idea what was wrong with their family lifeC. blamed herself for something wrong she didD. wondered why her husband took up all their children42. According to

27、 the passage, those people left their families behind for the following reasons except_.A. they couldnt bear their spouse (配偶) B. they were afraid of the burden of debts C. they wanted to forget the past completelyD. they wanted to start a new life somewhere else43. The man or woman left behind with

28、 an unfinished marriage usually _.A. admits their responsibility for the situationB. feels embarrassed and uselessC. will have no legal marriage life for seven yearsD. wishes the person who has left were dead 44. Some people would even prefer the death to the running away of their spouse because _.A

29、. their spouse would feel greatly relievedB. their spouse would feel no pain during the death C. their spouses death would contribute to them starting a fresh lifeD. their spouses death would not bring a feeling of rejection or failure 45. Whats the authors attitude towards the departures of this ki

30、nd?A. Objective.B. Supportive.C. Negative.D. Positive.BHow Do You See Diversity? As a manager, Tiffany is responsible for interviewing applicants for some of the positions with her company. During one interview, she noticed that the candidate never made direct eye contact. She was puzzled and somewh

31、at disappointed because she liked the individual otherwise. He had a perfect resume and gave good responses to her questions, but the fact that he never looked her in the eye said “untrustworthy,” so she decided to offer the job to her second choice. “It wasnt until I attended a diversity workshop t

32、hat I realized the person we passed over was the perfect person.” Tiffany admits. What she hadnt known at the time of the interview was that the candidates “different” behavior was simply a cultural misunderstanding. He was an Asian-American raised in a family where respect for those in authority wa

33、s shown by turning away your eyes. “I was just thrown off by the lack of eye contact, not realizing it was cultural,” Tiffany says. “I missed out, but will not miss that opportunity again.” Many of us have had similar experiences with behaviors we describe as different. As the world becomes smaller

34、and our workplaces more diverse, it is becoming essential to expand our understanding of others and to reexamine some of our false assumptions (假设) .Hire Advantage At a time when hiring qualified people is becoming more difficult, employers who can have no personal biases (偏见) from the process have

35、an obvious advantage. My company, Mindsets LLC, helps organizations and individuals see their own blind spots. A real estate (房产) agent we worked with illustrates the positive difference such training can make . “During my Mindsets coaching period, I was taught how to own a diversified workforce. I

36、employed people from different cultures and skill sets. The agents were able to make use of their full potential and experiences to build up the company. When the real estate market began to change, it was because we had a diverse agent pool that we were able to stay in the real estate market much l

37、onger than others in the same profession.”Blinded by GenderDale is an account executive who attended one of my workshops in charge of a diverse workforce. “Through some of the lessons, I discovered my personal bias.” he recalls. “I learned I had not been looking at a person as a whole person, and be

38、ing open to differences.” In his case, the blindness was not about culture but rather gender.“I had a management position open in my department; and the two finalists were a man and a woman. Had I not attended this workshop, I would have automatically assumed the man was the best candidate because t

39、he position required quite a bit of extensive travel. My assumption would have been that even though both candidates were great and could have been successful in the position, I assumed the woman would have wanted to be home with her children and not travel.” Dales assumptions are another example of

40、 the well-intentioned but incorrect thinking that limits an organizations ability to promote the full potential of a diverse workforce. “I learned from the class that instead of forcing my gender biases into the situation, I needed to present the full range of duties, responsibilities and expectatio

41、ns to all candidates and allow them to make an informed decision.” Dale sings high praise for the workshop, “because it helped me make decisions based on fairness.”A better Bottom Line An open mind about diversity not only improves organizations from inside, it is profitable as well. These comments

42、from a customer service representative show how an inclusive attitude can improve sales.” Most of my customers speak English as a second language. One of the best things my company has done is to contract with a language service that offers translations over the phone. It wasnt until my boss receive

43、d Mindsets training that she was able to understand how important inclusiveness was to customer service. As a result, our customer base has increased.” Once we start to see people as individuals, we can move positively toward inclusiveness for everyone. Diversity is about coming together and taking

44、advantage of our differences and similarities and about building better communities and organizations. When we begin to question our assumptions and challenge what we think we have learned from our past , from the media, peers, family, friends, etc, we begin to realize that some of our conclusions a

45、re imperfect or contrary to our fundamental values. We need to train ourselves to think differently, shift our mindsets and realize that diversity opens doors for all of us, creating opportunities in organizations and communities that benefit everyone.46.

46、ssed over because he _.A. was an Asian-American B. didnt perform as perfectly as the second oneC. was untrustworthyD. showed no respect for authority47.
