26、 Turning a group of individuals into an effective team is like closing the fingers of a hand to make a fist. 【1】
To build a team, you need an understanding of individual and group psychology. What's more, you must engage the group in activities that will force them to wok together and strengthen the bonds among them. The following activities may or may not be related to the wok but can help the group perform as a team.
【2】 If your team members are highly skilled, your team will function better if you generously offer authority to appropriate individuals. If the team is relatively unskilled, a top-down management approach may be necessary.
Institute a system of rewards for superior performance. 【3】 These rewards should be structured so every team member can win them, because competitive rewards tend to disrupt team spirit. The standards for qualifying for an award should be clear and fair.
Hold periodic meetings in which team members are encouraged to provide feedback on team activities-comments, criticism and new ideas. 【4】 Establish an anonymous feedback system such as a comment box, and discuss these comments at each meeting.
Take your team to weekend retreats(休养地)at least once a year. These retreats should offer challenging, but fun, group activities involving goals that no single team member can complete working alone. 【5】 You can choose a paintball war, for example, where the team is directed to conquer another team's region and defend its own.
A.Ask your members to help organize the team.
B.Select the ones removed from the work environment.
C.Team members must feel free to express themselves honestly.
D.Think about your organizational structure and make necessary changes.
E.It's because teamwork greatly enlarges the effectiveness of individual efforts.
F.Managers should structure the meeting so the team focuses first on general goals.
G.Two types of rewards are useful-financial encouragement and public recognition.
27、There’s something so wonderfully easy about reading this column in a physical newspaper. You turned the page, and here it is, with few annoyances or distractions, in an ultra-high-definition(超高清的)typeface which was custom-designed with pleasurable reading in mind. Or—wait—are you reading this on a phone? Did you follow a link from Twitter, or Facebook? Or maybe you’re on a train, or a plane, or you’re trying to use your laptop on your cousin’s bad Wi-Fi connection out in the countryside somewhere. In the case, there’s a pretty good chance that even getting this far is some kind of minor miracle.
When talking about the economics of online publishing, the first thing to remember is that job No.1 isn’t to get the news to you. Rather, it is to monetize you, by selling you off, in real time, to the highest bidder. This happens every time you click on a link, before the page has even started to load on your phone. An almost unthinkably enormous ecosystem of scripts, cookies and often astonishingly personal information is used to show you a set of brand messages and sales pitches which are tailored almost uniquely to you.
That ecosystem raises important questions about privacy and just general creepiness(毛骨悚然)—the way that the minute you look at a pair of shoes online, for instance, they then start following you around every other website you visit for weeks. But whether or not you value your privacy, you are damaged, daily, by the sheer weight of all that technology.
Online ads have never got less annoying over time, and you can be sure that mobile ads are going to get more annoying as well, once Silicon Valley has worked out how to better identify who you are. The move to greater privacy protection might help slow the pace at which such technologies are adopted. But there’s no realistic hope that websites will actually improve from here. If you want to avoid the terrible experience of the mobile web, you’ll only have one choice—which is to start reading your articles natively, in the Facebook or Apple News app. But it won’t be Facebook and Apple who killed the news brands. It’ll be ad tech.

29、In the United States, friends can be close, constant, intense, generous, and real, yet fade away in a short time if circumstances(环境)change. Neither side feels hurt by this. Both may exchange Christmas greetings for a year or two, perhaps a few letters for a while then no more. If the same two people meet again by chance, even years later, they pick up the friendship where it left out and are delighted.
In the States, you can feel free to visit people’s homes, share their holidays, enjoy their children and their lies without fear that you taking on a lasting obligation(负担).

Americans will enjoy welcoming you and be pleased if you accept their hospitality easily.
Once you arrive there, the welcome will be full, warm and real. Most visitors find themselves readily invited into many homes there. In some countries it is considered inhospitable to entertain (招待) at home, offering what is felt as only home-cooked food, not " doing something for your guest". It is felt that restaurant entertaining shows more respect and welcome. Or for other different reasons, such as crowded space, language difficulties, or family custom, outsiders are not invited into homes.
In the United States both methods are used, but it is often considered more friendly to invite a person to one’s home than to go to a public place, except in purely business relationships. So, if your host or hostess brings you home, do not feel that you are being shown inferior(次的)treatment.
Don’t feel neglected( 被轻视的) if you do not find flowers awaiting you in your hotel room either. Flowers are very expensive there, hotel delivery is uncertain, arrival times are delayed, changed, or canceled so flowers are not customarily sent as a welcoming touch. Please do not feel unwanted! Outward signs vary in different lands, the inward welcome is what matters, and this will be real.
