Are You a Successful Leader

Almost nothing we do in this world is done in isolation. At work or at play, you'll find yourself in groups, working with other people: your team at work, a meeting with colleagues, your family, a holiday with friends, a group of students working together, a day out walking in the mountains, a group of neighbors wanting to make changes. It is now recognised that being able to work successfully with other people is one of the major keys to success, partly because we need to do it so often.

In almost every situation where you're in a group, you will need a skilled leader. All groups need leaders and all successful groups have good leaders. Groups without leaders or with weak leaders almost always break down. Members of a leaderless group often begin to feel dissatisfied and frustrated. Time is wasted and the tasks are not achieved. There are often arguments and tensions between people as there is nobody to keep the goals clear. Some personalities dominate and others disappear. Often group members begin not to come to meetings in order to avoid more disharmony.

Some people are natural leaders. The celebrity chef, Antonio Carluccio says, "True leaders are born and you can spot them in kitchens." They're people who combine toughness, fairness and humour. Although a lot of people agree that there are some natural-born leaders, most people now recognise that leadership can also be taught. Our professional and experienced staff can train almost anyone how to be a successful leader. Good leaders don't make people do things in a bossy, controlling way. You can learn how to involve everyone, encouraging the whole group to work towards a common goal.

Our training courses use activities and techniques to develop a range of qualities which are necessary to be a good leader. Self-confidence is vital for you to overcome your own fears about being a leader. Successful leaders also need to be calm and intelligent. They need to be able to work out good strategies and make sound judgments under pressure. Lastly, and probably most importantly, good leaders need to be sensitive, sociable and be able to get on with a wide range of people. Good leader ship is essentially the ability to influence others and good leaders allow all members of the group to contribute.

第3部分：概括大意与完成句子

23 、F 第一段的第一句话就讲世上几乎没有什么事我们是单枪匹马去完成的。接着作者举了好几个人们在群体中生活和工作的例子。所以 People are in groups. 正是本段的中心。

24 、E 本段的第一句 In almost every situation where you're in a group，you will need a skilled leader. 就是它的主题句。本段要讲的就是任何一个群体都需要有一个领导者。

25 、C 本段虽然以 Some people are natural leaders.（有些人生来就是当头的。）开始，但作者并不真正认同这一观点，这从 Although a 1ot of people agree that there are some natural- born leaders，most people now recognize that leadership can also be taught.这句话可以看到。所以 Training can make good 1eaders. 概括了本段的大意。

26 、A 本段的第一句是它的主题句: Our training courses use activities and techniques to develop a range of qualities which are necessary to be a good leader. a range of qualities 就是a variety of qualities，即各种素质。

27 、A 答案可见第一段的最后一句: ...being able to work successfully with other people is one of the major keys to success.

28 、C Groups often break down because of lack of good leaders. 这句话是第二段中下面这句话的另一种说法: Groups without leaders or with weak leaders almost always break down.

29 、D 请见第二段里的这句话: Good leaders don't make people do things in a bossy ，controlling way.

30 、F请见第四段里这句话: Self-confidence is vital for you to overcome your own fears about being a leader. be vital for someone to do something 即对某人做某事是十分关键的，和 be the key to doing something 是同一个意思。
