27、ve generally viewed personal growth as an external result or a product that can easily be identified and measured. The worker who gets a rise, the students whose grades improve, the foreigner who learns a new language_ all these are examples of people who have measurable results to show for their ef
28、forts.By contrast(对照), the process of personal growth is much more difficult to determine, since it is a journey and not the specific signposts or landmarks along the way. The process is not the road itself, but the attitudes, feelings people have, and their caution or courage, as they meet with new
29、 experiences and unexpected difficulties. In this process, the journey never really ends; there are always new ways to experience the word, new ideas to try, new challenges to accept.In order to grow, to travel new roads, people need to have a willingness to take risks, to face the unknown, and to a
30、ccept the possibility that they may “fail” at first. How we see ourselves as we try a new way of being is essential to our ability to grow. Do we see ourselves as quick as curious? If so, we tend to take more changes and to be shy and indecisive? Then our sense of fear can cause us to hesitate, to m
31、ove slowly, and not to take a step until we know the ground is safe. Do we think we are slow to adapt to change or that we are not smart enough to deal with a new challenge? Then we are likely to take a more passive role or not try at all.These feelings of insecurity and self-doubt are both unavoida
32、ble and necessary if we are to change and grow. If do not face and overcome these internal fears and doubts, if we protect ourselves too much, then we stop growing. We become trapped inside a shell of our own making.56. In the authors eyes, one who views personal growth as a process would_ .A. succe
33、ed in climbing up the social ladderB. judge his ability to grow from his own achievementsC. face difficulties and take up challengesD. aim high and reach his goal each time57. Which of the following can be viewed as the process of personal growth?A. Our manager was always willing to accept new chall
34、enges.B. Little tom won the first prize in the speech contest.C. Mary picked up French while she was in Paris.D. Fathers salary rose from $2,000 to $3,000.58. For personal growth, the author advocate（提倡）all of the following except _.A. curiosity about more challengesB. quickness in self-adaptationC.
35、 open-mindedness to new experiencesD. avoidance of internal fears and doubts59. The best title for this passage should be _.A. Encountering New ChallengesB. Growth Product or ProcessC. Unavoidable Feeling of Self-doubtD. Overcoming Internet FearsBComplaints should be made to a responsible person. Go
36、 back to the shop where you bought the goods, taking with you any receipt(收据) you may have. Ask to see the buyer in a large store. In a small store the assistant may also be the owner so you can complain directly. In a chain store, ask to see the manager. If you telephone , ask the name of the perso
37、n who handles your enquiry, otherwise you may never find out who deals with the complaint later.Even the bravest person finds it difficult to stand up in a group of people to complain, so if you do not want to do it in person, write a letter. Stick to the facts and keep a copy of what you write. At
38、this stage, you should give any receipt number, but you should not need to give receipts or other papers to prove you bought the article. If you are not satisfied with the answer you get, or if you do not get a reply, write to the managing director of the firm, store, or organization. Be sure to kee
39、p copies of your own letter and any you receive.If your complaint is a just one, the shopkeeper may offer to replace or repair the faulty article. You may find it an attractive solution.

62、for handing over power to Iraqis.

79、savings give way to expenses.People spend more and more money in the daily life. For example, in 20003,three fifths of the total income was used for expenses, while it was less than that in 1995. Why does peoples living cost increase? With the development of economy and technology, people can earn e
80、ven more money than before. It leads to it that people request much higher living level at the same time. In order to make themselves live better and work better, people find it necessary to take out enough money for expending on a comfortable life. So the pleasant change means the continued growth in living expenses.
