They had gone one day and one night with their elbows on a chalk line on the table and their forearms straight up and their hands gripped tight. Each one was trying to force the others hand do
26、wn onto the table. There was much betting and people went in and out of the room under the kerosene lights and he had looked at the arm and hand of the negro and at the negros face. They changed the referees every four hours after the first eight so that the referees could sleep. Blood came out from
27、 under the finger-nails of both his and the negros hands and they looked each other in the eye and at their hands and forearms and the bettors went in and out of the room and sat on high chairs against the wall and watched.

But his left hand had always been a traitor and would not do what he called on it to do and he did not trust it.Quoted from The Old Man and the Sea written by Ernest Hemingway28Since the old man is the main character, in

Another purpose of a brand is to contrast one company from another.
39、 The most important skill of professional marketers is the ability to create, maintain, protect, and enhance the brands of their products and services. Branding has become so important that today hardly any company or product is without one. Therefore, brand management is an increasingly important e
40、lement in marketing.Brand power refers to the relative strength of a companys brand in the minds of consumers, and can influence consumers choice of products. Brands are powerful to the extent that they give high brand loyalty and strong brand associations, name recognition, perceived quality and ot
41、her assets to a company. A strong brand can be one of a companys most important assets.High brand power provides a company with many competitive advantages. A powerful brand enjoys a high level of consumer brand awareness and loyalty. Because consumers expect stores to carry the brand, the company h

And because the brand name brings high credibility, a company with a strong brand can more easily launch new products with the same brand name.Many companies use the advantage of a strong brand power strategically to expand their busine
43、ss. When a company introduces an additional item with a new flavour, form, colour or package size in a given product category and under the same brand name, it is called a line extension. Another strategy is called brand extension. This involves the use of a successful brand name to launch new or mo

48、eryone?Weve all heard it before: to be successful, get out of bed early. After all, Apple CEO Tim Cook gets up at 3:45 a.m. and, as we know, “the early bird catches the worm.” But just because some successful people wake up early, does that mean its a trait most of them share? And if you are not an
49、early bird, are you really doomed to a less successful life?36 Its estimated that some 50% of the population isnt really morning or evening-oriented, but somewhere in the middle. Numerous studies have found that morning people are more persistent, self-directed and agreeable, while night owls tend t
50、o perform better on measures of memory, processing speed and cognitive ability, even when they have to perform those tasks in the morning.Still think the morning people sound more like CEO material? Dont set your alarm for 5 a.m. just yet.37 “If people are left to their naturally preferred times, th
51、ey feel much better. They say that they are much more productive. The mental capacity they have is much broader,” says Oxford University biologist Katharina Wulff, who studies chronobiology (生物钟学) and sleep. On the other hand, she says, pushing people too far out of their natural preference can be h
52、armful. When they wake early, for example, night owls are still producing melatonin ( 褪 黑 素 ). “38 That can have lots of negative physiological consequences,” Wulff says.In many ways, that makes sense, since research shows that our chronotype ( 睡眠类型), or internal clock, is mainly biological. Up to 4
53、7% of it is inherited, which means if you want to know why you pop up at dawn each day (or never do), you should probably look at your parents. 39 Children tend toward morning, with a peak shift toward night around age 20 and a slight change back toward morning at around age 50.In our rush to figure
54、 out the secrets of success, we tend to forget a couple of things. First, not all high achievers are early risers, and not all early risers are successful. More importantly, things that are connected dont necessarily cause the events. 40AAnd your preference does change as you age.BFor about half of
55、us, this isnt really an issue.CThen you interrupt it and push the body to be in the daytime mode.DAs it turns out, changing your sleep times may not have much effect.E.And shifting someones chronotype doesnt necessarily change these traits.F.In other words, its not clear that waking up early itself
