So if someone says the dishes you have cooked are very delicious, you should say, “Thank you.”In our country we think being modest is a virtue (美德) and being proud is a bad thing, but in my opinion, being confident does not 7being proud, so sometimes you should be confident 8being modest.9you are modest and say, “No, Im afraid I cant do it well”, while working in a western country, the others may think that you really cannot do it. If you often say “No”, you will certainly be looked down on by others. When asking for a job, if one says something like “Yes, I can certainly do it” instead of “Let me have a try ”, he or she will 10get it.

When I look back on my career, I realize the road to becoming a CEO isnt a straight, clear path. In fact, no two paths are the same. But whether you want to be a boss one day or not, theres a lot to learn from how leaders rise to the top of successful companies. As this series of stories shows, the paths to becoming a CEO may be different, but the people in that position(位置) share the qualities of commitment（义务）, work ethic（道德） and a strong desire for building something new. And every CEO take risks along the wayputting your life savings on the line to start a software company or leaving a big business to be one of the first employees at a startup.I grew up in Minnesota, and learned how to be an entrepreneur（企业家）from my father, who has run a small business for almost 30 years. I went to Georgetown University and tried a lot of business activities in college with success. And I always had a dream job pattern(模式): to walk to work, work for myself and build something for consumers(顾客). Im only 29, so its been a quick ride to CEO. Out of college, I worked for AOL as a product manager, then moved to Revolution Health and ran the consumer product team. In mid-2007 I left Revolution Health and started LivingSocial with several other workmates, where I became a CEO.Career advice: Dont figure out where you want to work, or even what industry youd like to work at. Figure out what makes you do so. What gives you a really big rush? Answer why you like things, not what you like doing. . . and then apply it to your work life. Also, just because youre graduating, dont stop learning. Read more books than you did in college.

Not one of their children is adopted（领养）.When people hear about the Albinas large family, the first question they ask is, How is it possible? How can one woman give birth to 64 children in her lifetime? The answer is simple: Every time Mrs Albina gave birth, she had twins or triplets.Soon after the Albinas got married the children came quickly, in twos and threes. The first 21 children were boys. Mrs Albina loved her sons, but she wanted a daughter very much.The Albinas spent the early years in Argentina. Then they decided to move to Chile. To travel from Argentina to Chile, they had to cross the Andes Mountains. Mr and Mrs Albina and their 21 sons made the difficult, two-week joumey on mules. One night there was a terrible snowstorm in the mountains. During the snowstorm, Mrs Albina gave birth to triplets, a boy and-two girls!The oldest Albina children are in their thirties and forties. They are on their own now, but 18 of the Albina children still live with their parents The family lives in a two-room shack in Colina Chile. The shack has electricity but no toilet or running water. The children wash in a small bowl in the dusty backyard.At times there is very little food in the Albinas small house. When there is not enough food for everyone, Mrs Albina makes sure the youngest children do not go hungry. The smallest eat first, and then the bigger ones. Weve always done it that way, she says. Obviously, the Albinas do not have enough money for their big family. Why, then, do they continue to have children?The Albinas do not use birth control because it is against their religion (宗教）.They could let other people take care of their children, but Mrs. Albina will not allow it. When my two brothers and I were babies, she says，our mother left us at an orphanage（孤儿院）and never returned. We lived there together until we were five. Then a couple adopted my brothers, and I was left behind. I was heartbroken. I promised myself that when I became a mother, I would never give my children away. Even if I didnt have much money, I would always take care of my children myself. Mrs Albina has kept her promise.（1）How many people are there in the worlds largest family?
