Passage 1

Your boss holds your future prospects in his hands. Some bosses are hard to get along with. Some have excellent qualifications but no idea when it comes to dealing with people. Of course, not all bosses are like that.

The relationship you have with your boss can be a major factor in determining your rise up the career ladder.Your boss is not only your leader, he is also the person best equipped to help you do the job you are paid to do. He can inform you of company direction that may affect your professional development.

Your boss also needs you to perform at your best in order to accomplish his objectives. He needs your feedback in order to provide realistic and useful reports to upper management. But how does this help you establish a meaningful working relationship with your boss?

The key is communication. Learn and understand his goals and priorities (优先的事). Observe and understand your boss’s work style. If he has not been clear with his expectations, ask! Likewise, ask for feedback and accept criticism gracefully. And if he understands you do not view your job as just something to fill the hours between 9 and 5, he may be more likely to help you.

In short, getting along with your boss requires getting to know his likes and dislikes and learning to work with his personality and management style.

(72) [The search business has also developed one of the most effective forms of advertising on the Internet.] And (73) [it is already the best way to reach some consumers: teenagers and young men spend more time online than watching television.] All this means that search is turning into the internet’s next big battleground as Google defends itself against challenges from Yahoo! and Microsoft.

The other way to get noticed online is to offer goods and services through one of the big sites that already get a lot of traffic. (74) [eBay, Yahoo! and Amazon are becoming huge trading platforms for other companies.] But to take part, a company’s products have to stand up to intense price competition. (75)[People check online prices’ compare them with those in their local high street and may well take a peek (看) at what customers in other countries are paying.] Even if websites are prevented from shipping their goods abroad, there are plenty of web-based entrepreneurs ready to oblige.
