The director of one firm decided to delegate（授权）some of the work to his deputy（副手）. He needed a brave and intelligent person, as he was in his youth. There were three such worthy people in the firm, and he did not know who was the best candidate for the position. Then he decided to use some old wisdom and came up with a test.

He prepared three identical suitcases and put them on the table. He got the three young men to come to his office and said to them, "I have known you for years, and each of you is a good and devoted employee. I am grateful for all your hard work in all these years. Now I need one deputy to help me, but it is tough for me to make a choice. After lots of thinking, I decided to give you a test." He pointed to the three suitcases on the table and said that the position would go to whoever passed the test.

He asked them to picture a situation in their mind: You come to a meeting with a very important and respectable client to sign a contract. The client is in a hurry and will not wait for long, and the contract must be signed right now. The contract is in the suitcase, but the keys are lost. There's no time to search for the keys. You have a minute to open the suitcase with a penknife. Whoever does it first will be the new deputy director. The three men nodded and wanted to start, but the director stopped them. He said there was one more condition: If they take this challenge and fail to open the suitcase, then at the end of the year they will not receive their bonuses. Or they can give up the test and continue working as before, and receive the bonuses at the end of the year.

Celebrating Earth Day

If we redouble our efforts, our dreams will come true. Chen Zuobin had 1 for 13 years already. Finally, he decided to become a 2 again. Born in a mountain village in Anhui Province, Chen Zuobin walked out of the mountains for study when he was 19. Though he had a 3 life as a creative director of an international agency in Shanghai, he couldn't 4 the anxiety reflected in his dreams.

"I dreamed about 5 branch roads several times a year. I didn't know which one leads to 6 . It made me feel terrible." One day, Chen Zuobin said to his wife, "I want to go home." 7 being surprised, his wife said, "Follow your heart. Don't worry about me."

The young couple returned to their hometown and 8 the Real Food Farm just to lead a real and simple life. Chen Zuobin shook off the 9 and tiredness from too much workload in the city. Only in the mountains can they enjoy the 10 air. There isn't the smell of tail gas, but the smell of 11 when it shines over the woods. They live a life of "eating healthily and 12 well".

In a time 13 eating properly becomes a luxury in the urban life, it's truly a right way to return to the simplicity. "Life is a journey of 14 the proper way." said Chen Zuobin.

Those dreams about branch roads have 15  because he has found his own path.

Competition is a common phenomenon in our social life.  There is constant competition for academic degrees, jobs, customers, money and so forth. In a sense, competition is one of the motive forces to the development of society.

 Therefore, the only way to survive is to be competitive. Growing in a competitive environment is important for a child because future adult life is difficult. Finding a good job, for example, is an extremely competitive activity.

Today, most people obtain knowledge through various ways and a large number of people get good education.  The quality of people is rapidly increasing. Competition is more violent than what we thought it should be. The potentially successful job applicant has to be prepared in stronger position by gaining more qualifications and experience. In the sports contests, the strongest will come out as winners. In the business world, to beat your competitors, you must be better than the other employees.  

Though the only way our world rewards people is to give honor to the winners, not to the losers, by attempting to compete at different activities, we can still learn to win and lose, gain experience and know our strengths and weaknesses. Competition prepares us for the tough things in life.

Whether in games, in study or in business alike, the aim is to win the game, the degree, the trophy (奖), and the contract.  

A. Otherwise, you will be defeated.

B. Modern society demands high-quality talents.

C. Learning to be competitive is clearly the best preparation for life.

D. There are also many people who have higher degrees in their special fields.

E. Children have to learn to be competitive in order to adapt to modern society.

F. In the natural world, the weak will be replaced by the strong and the fittest can live.

G. We compete when we play games and when we try to do better than others in our study.
