well say it again: “no”.sweet and simple “no”.say “no” at your office and see how quickly that pile of work on your desk disappears.“saying no to others means you are saying yes to yourself, ” said leslie charles, a professional speaker from east lansing, michigan.“time is precious. people are spending money buying time. and yet we are willing to give up our time because we cant say no.” susie watson, a famous writer, said people who always say “yes” need to say “no” without guilt(内疚)or fear of punishment. “i would rather have someone give me a loving no than an obligated(强制的) yes, ” she said. susie watson says she feels “no” obligation to give an explanation when she says “no” either socially or professionally. does she feel guilty about it? “not at all, ” said watson, who is director of advertising and public relations at timex corp in middlebury, conneticut. “most people are afraid of saying no my advice is to say yes only if you dont mean no.” watson said “no” is the most effective weapon against wasting time. “every year there are more demands on your time other people are happy to use up your time, ” watson said. time saving appears to be “nos” greatest friend.“no” can be your new friend, a powerful tool to take back your life. “no” may even take you further in the business world than “yes”.“no” is power and strength. “no” now seems completely correct. “saying no isnt easy. but finally its greatly liberating,” charles said. but, he added, a “no” project needs to be worked on every day because it is hard to change long-term habit.but, he also warns: “dont go to extremes. dont find yourself saying no to everything. in return you should learn to hear no.”1. the sentence “saying yes to yourself” means _.a. you can have more time to play with othersb. you neednt care about others feeling if you are happyc. you are selfish and treat others rudelyd. you can deal with your business as you have planned 答案解析：答案为d。本题为细节推理题。由第五、六段可知，对别人说 “不”就是对自己说 “是”，当在办公室说 “不”的时候，你可以看到你桌上的文件很快就完成了。故答案为d。2. when you say “no” to others you should say it in a _.a. secret wayb. polite wayc. proud way d. guilty way 答案解析：答案为b。本题为细节推理题。由第八段 “i would rather have someone give me a loving no ”的 “loving” 可以推断，答案为b。3. in watsons opinion, people can save much time on condition that _.a. they say “no” at a suitable timeb. they say “no” as much as possiblec. they are afraid of saying “no” d. they make others angry at them 答案解析：答案为a. 本题为推理题。结合倒数第五段的内容和该段的最后一句话 “my advice is to say yes only if you dont mean no.” 可知，watson的总结性意见是如果你不打算对别人说 “不”，那就说 “是”。故可以推断，说 “不”要在合适的时间。故答案为a。4. if a person says “no” to everything, the result he or she receive may be that he or she _.a. enjoys a wonderful lifeb. makes a lot of moneyc. faces difficulty in lifed. forgets to say “yes” in the end答案解析：答案为c。本题为推理题。由最后一段 charles 所讲的 “dont go to extremes. dont find yourself saying no to everything”可知，他认为不能凡事都说 “不”，不能走极端。故可以推断，如果凡事说 “不”，生活就会遇到麻烦。 【2014高考英语安徽省联考模拟试题】 b its not about how much money you make, and its not about who your daddy is. and no, its definitely not about whether you look like tom cruise or his wife katie holmes . what it is about is these simple things, things that maybe even a person like tom cruise does not have.were talking about being attractive in general, whether its on a job interview or just gaining the respect of your colleagues.ask lots of questionsin other words, be humble. if you come across as a know-it-all (even if you really do know it all!)， it really pushes people away. rather, asking lots and lots of questions (even dumb ones) makes people feel like you care, you can be trusted, and you are. humble.stay busydo you really know the power of this?
