How to Argue with your Boss
1. Before you argue with your boss, check with the boss’s secretary to determine his mood. If he ate nails for breakfast, it is not a good idea to ask him for something. Even without the boss’s secretary, there are keys to timing: don’t approach the boss when he’s on deadline’ ; don’t go in right before lunch, when he is apt to be distracted and rushed; don’t go in just before or after he has taken a vacation.
2. If you’re mad, that will only make your boss mad. Calm down first. And don’t let a particular concern open the floodgates for all your accumulated frustration. The boss will feel that you think negatively about the company and it is hopeless trying to change your mind. Then , maybe he will dismiss you.
3. Terrible disputes can result when neither the employer nor the employee knows what is the problem the other wants to discuss. Sometimes the fight will go away when the issues are made clear. The employee has to get his point across clearly in order to make the boss understand it.
4. Your boss has enough on his mind without your adding more. If you can’t put forward an immediate solution, at least suggest how to approach the problem . People who frequently present problems without solutions to their bosses may soon find they can’t get past the secretary.
5. To deal effectively with a boss, it’s important to consider his goals and pressures. If you can put yourself in the position of being a partner to the boss, then he will be naturally more inclined to work you to achieve your goals.

参考答案:
1. D。 分析:该段落中没有明显的特征词/短语重复出现的特点,注意对特殊位置的句子句意进行分析,确认段落中心(第2句和第3句, 这两句都是祈使句,在教读者怎样去做,同时也反应了作者自己的观点—“首先安静下来”),因此判断答案为D。
2.E.分析:段落中近义结构((the issues are made clear(问题被弄清楚) 和get his point across clearly(让他的观点被清楚地理解))的反复出现直接暗示段落中心E。
3. C。分析:段落中solution的重复出现,和段落第2句的特殊结构(祈使句)--揭示段落中心,共同揭示C是答案。
4. B。分析:根据段首句的句意(为了更好地应对老板, 很重要的一点是要考虑到老板的目标和他承受的压力)和段落中直接出现的结构“如果把你放在老板的位置上”,确认答案B。
5. B.分析:find out后需要跟宾语,而B,D,F都可以作宾语成分,在借助相关原文:Before you argue with your boss, check with the boss’s secretary to determine his mood(在你和老板争论之前,首先在老板的秘书那里弄清楚老板的情绪如何)判断B(他现在的感觉) 是答案。
6. D.分析:make clear(把。。表述清楚)后需要跟宾语,而D,F都可以作宾语成分,借助搭配句意(有必要向老板表达清楚你到底想对他谈些什么)选择答案D。
7.E. 分析:根据搭配句意(向老板提出一个问题却不建议怎样去解决这个问题,这样做是不明智的)和对文章大意的理解选择E(作状语)
8.C.分析:根据搭配句意(你必须考虑周全,考虑到老板可能遇到的问题)选择C(作定语)。
