Some places on the earth don't get very much rain. But they still don't become deserts. This is because some green plants are growing there. Small green plants and grass are very important to dry places. Plants don't let the hot sun make the earth even drier. Plants don't let the wind blow the dirt(土)away. When a little bit of rain falls, the plants hold the water. Without plants, the land can become a desert much more easily.

It's no secret that good leaders are also good communicators.Indeed,communication and leadership are inextricably tied.How can you galvanize,inspire or guide others if you don't communicate in a clear,credible and authentic way?Here are 5essential communication practices of effective leaders:
1.Mind the say-do gap.Trust is the bedrock of effective leadership-your behavior is your single greatest mode of communication,and it must be congruent with what you say.If your actions don't align with your words,you a restoring up trouble for the future.
2.Make the complex simple.Effective leaders distill complex thoughts and strategies into simple,memorable terms that colleagues and customers can grasp and act upon.The most important thing is to clarify what you want to say,lookout for technical jargon and avoid business speak,which add complexity.Say what you mean in as few words as possible.
3.Find your own voice.Use language that's distinctly your own;let your values come through in your communication.Correct use of language and grammar are important,of course,but don't become overly fixated on eloquence for eloquence's sake;concentrate on being distinct and real.People want real,people respect real,people follow real.
4.Be visible.Visibility is about letting your key stakeholders get a feel for who you are and what you care about.Don't hide behind a computer and only interact with people electronically-see them face to face and voice to voice,and interact with them in a real,substantial way.In today's environment,where people are often burned out,it's important for employees to have a personal connection with you and the work you believe in.Show the
people that work for you that you're engaged and that you care about them and their work.
5.Listen with your eyes as well as your ears.Effective communication is a two-way process,and good leaders know how to ask good questions,and then listen with both their eyes and their ears.Because you are in a position of authority,others maybe reluctant to express their real opinions to you directly.You won't always get
direct feedback,so you need to also be able to read between the lines and look for the non-verbal cues. 26.Communication and leadership don't always go hand in hand.
2.The say-do gap happens when people misunderstand their leader's intention.
3.Using technical jargon makes a leader convincing.
4.Communicating sincerely is always the best.
5.Observation is as important as communication when you want to know what people really think.
听力原文: We don't know when man first began to use salt, but we do know that it has been used in many different ways throughout history. Historical evidence shows, for example, that people who lived over 3000 years ago ate salted fish. Thousands of years ago in Egypt, salt was used to keep the dead from decaying.
Stealing salt was considered a major crime during some periods of history. In the 18th century, for instance, if a person was caught stealing salt, he could be put in jail. History records that about ten thousand people were put in jail that century for stealing salt. About 150 years before, in the year 1533, taking more than one's share of salt was punishable as a crime. The offender's ear was cut off!
Salt was an important item on the table of a king. It was traditionally placed in front of the king when he sat down to eat. Important guests at the king's table were seated near the salt. Less important guests were given seats far away from it.
