【正文】 s is a skill set that all employers look for in their best people.9豪特贊同這一說法?！吧虡I(yè)成功通常有這樣一個特質：那就是能接受不確定因素和風險——個人的，組織上的和財務上的。這就讓許多科學家感到不適應，因為學術上的成功其實是依靠認真而嚴謹的研究。更進一步說，偉大的科學常常是由找尋答案的過程和答案本身兩者同時來定義的。因此科學家們往往沉迷于過程。在企業(yè)里，你需要了解過程，但最終你會迷上答案，然后根據你認為該答案對你的企業(yè)所具有的意義來冒風險。像這樣敢冒風險是一套技能組合，是所有雇主在他們最好的員工身上所尋找的東西?！?0 Another important piece of risk tolerance is a candidate39。s degree of fort with failure. Failure is important because it shows that you were not afraid to take chances. So panies consistently look for candidates who can be wrong and admit it. Everyone knows how to talk about successes—or they should if they39。re in a job search—but far fewer people are fortable talking about failures, and fewer still know how to bring lessons and advantages back from the brink. For my organization, a candidate needs to have fort discussing his or her failures, and he or she needs to have real failures, not something made up for interview day. If not, that person has not taken enough risk. says Haut.10風險容忍度的另外一個要點是求職者對失敗的承受度。失敗很重要，因為這表示你不怕冒險。所以各家公司總會尋找有可能犯錯誤并敢于承認錯誤的求職者。大家都知道如何談論成功——或者當他們在尋找工作的時候應該知道。但很少有人樂意談論失敗，更少有人知道如何從失敗的邊緣吸取教訓和獲得經驗。“對我的企業(yè)來說，求職者需要坦然地談論他或她的失敗，而且他或她需要有真正的失敗經歷，而不是特意為面試而杜撰的東西。如果做不到的話，那么這個人冒的風險還不夠，”豪特說。11 Trait 4: Strength in interpersonal relationships Rick Leach is in business development for deCODE Genetics. Leach made the transition to industry recently, on the business side of things39。. I asked him about this key trait because in his new business role, interpersonal abilities make the difference between success and failure. Scientists spend their lives accumulating knowledge and developing technical acumen, he says, but working for a business requires something else entirely—people skills. The scientist who is transitioning into the business world must prioritize his or her relationship assets above their technical assets. To suddenly be valued and measured by your mastery of human relationships can be a very scary proposition for a person who has been valued and measured only by his mastery of things, says Rick.11特征4：善于處理人際關系瑞克李奇在迪科德遺傳工程公司從事業(yè)務拓展。李奇最近才轉行到企業(yè)，做業(yè)務方面的工作。我向他咨詢這個重要特征，是因為在他的新業(yè)務角色中，人際溝通能力在成功和失敗之間發(fā)揮著很大的作用?！翱茖W家畢生都在積累知識，培養(yǎng)技術上的敏銳感，”他說，“但為企業(yè)工作需要完全不同的東西——人際交往的能力。想轉行到企業(yè)界的科學家們必須優(yōu)先考慮他們的社會關系資源而不是技術資源。對一個以前一直根據專業(yè)知識水平被評價的人來說，突然之間要根據他的人際交往能力來評價他，真是十分令人恐懼?！?2 It would be a mistake, however, to assume that strong people skills are required only for business people like Leach. Indeed, the key players I39。ve met who work at the bench in industry have succeeded in great measure because they39。ve been able to work with a broad variety of personalities, up and down the organization.12然而，如果認為只有像李奇那樣的生意人才需要熟練的人際溝通技巧，那就錯了。事實上，我所遇見的在企業(yè)工作的核心費工們之所以取得成功，很大程度上是因為他們能夠與公司上下各種各樣的人共事。Unit Two中餐被公認為全球最佳美食之一，其種類之豐富，工藝之繁復，使其理所當然地成為游客大快朵頤的樂事之一。CULINARY DELIGHTS IN CHINA中國美食1 Chinese cuisine is a brilliant facet of Chinese culture, which is proven by the fact that Chinese restaurants are found scattered everywhere throughout the world.

They came from Shandong, Sichuan, Guangdong, Fujian, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Hunan, and Anhui provinces.

Here, each and every restaurant provides delicious yet economical culinary fare. The ingredients for Sichuan cuisine are simple but the spices used are quite different. Sichuan cuisine is famous for its spicy and hot food, yet just being hot and spicy does not necessarily distinguish it from other hot and spicy cuisines such as Hunan or Guizhou cuisines. What is really special about Sichuan cuisine is the use of Chinese prickly ash seeds, the taste of which leaves a feeling of numbness on one39。s tongue and mouth. Besides this unique spice, Sichuan dishes are usually prepared with other spices such as chili pepper. Using fermented bean sauce and a set of unique cooking methods. Sichuan cuisine is now famous and popular across the world. In recent years, there have appeared many more renowned restaurants specializing in Sichuan cuisine, such as the Tan Family Fish Head restaurant.3 被譽為“天府之國”的四川也是個美食之都。在那里的任何一家餐館都能找到既可口又經濟實惠的美食。川菜的原料雖簡單，但調料卻大有講究。川菜以口味辣著 稱，但僅是口味辣還不能使川菜區(qū)別于其他辣口味的菜系，比如湖南菜和貴州菜。川菜的特別之處在于花椒的使用。嘗過花椒之后，人們的舌頭和嘴巴會留下酥麻的 感覺。除了花椒之外，川菜還常用辣椒粉之類的調料。因使用豆豉作配料，再加上一套獨特的烹飪方式，如今川菜在全世界都十分有名和受歡迎。近幾年涌現了一大批著名的專做川菜的餐館，比如譚魚頭。4 Guangdong Province is located in southern China, with a moderate climate and abundant produce all year round.

Guangdong cuisine is famous for its seafood as well as for its originality and refined cooking processes.
