The best way for a society to prepare its young people for leadership in government, industry, or other fields is by instilling in them a sense of cooperation, not competition.

五問:
(1)你能說說合作的好處是什么嗎?若是能舉出一個具體的案例來就更好了。合作可以使每個人各司其職,做自己擅長的部分,提高效率,產(chǎn)生 1+1>2的效果。例如:一輛汽車可能是由不同國家生產(chǎn)的零件組裝而成的。
(2)也請你說說競爭的好處,最好能舉一個例子。競爭可以使人保持危機感,保持生機和活力,促使我們不斷克服困難,完善自己??煽诳蓸放c百事可樂便是一個競爭的好例子,只要一方有新動作,另一方也會有行動。早在 20世紀 20年代,可口可樂便在古巴用飛機在空中噴霧,畫出“COCA-COLA”字樣,可惜失敗了;1940年,百事可樂為了反擊,租了 8架飛機在美國東西海岸城市的空中噴霧,寫上百事可樂的廣告。兩個公司的競爭比較激烈,但都獲得了長久的發(fā)展。
(3)在以上兩個問題的基礎(chǔ)上,你能否說說競爭與合作對于領(lǐng)導力來說分別有什么影響?作為一個成功的領(lǐng)導,應該強調(diào)什么?如果你認為兩者都應該強調(diào),那么這兩者之間應該如何結(jié)合呢?例如:在競爭中合作,在合作中競爭。
(4)在不同領(lǐng)域中,對于領(lǐng)導力的要求是否并不相同?比如:在政治領(lǐng)域可能需要領(lǐng)導更適應合作與妥協(xié),而在商業(yè)領(lǐng)域則需要領(lǐng)導有規(guī)范的行為準則等。你是怎么認為的?
(5)過分強調(diào)競爭可能會產(chǎn)生什么不好的后果?過分強調(diào)合作呢?例如:過分強調(diào)競爭可能會產(chǎn)生惡性競爭,造成兩敗俱傷的局面;過度強調(diào)合作,可能會導致雙方互相推卸責任,權(quán)責不清。
翻譯練習:
恩格斯為馬克思的成功做出了很大貢獻,馬克思同樣也對恩格斯的成功有很大貢獻。有時候恩格斯會給予馬克思經(jīng)濟上的支援,有時候他會幫助馬克思翻譯稿件,有時候他會就馬克思的研究給出自己的意見;另一方面,馬克思也非常關(guān)心恩格斯并幫助他撰寫作品。他們一起工作比分別進行工作更加成功。
參考答案:
Engels contributed a lot to Marx's success, and Marx to Engels's. Sometimes Engels would offer Marx some financial assistance, sometimes he would help Marx translate his articles, and sometimes he would give out his opinions on Marx's research; Marx, on the other hand, also cared a lot about Engels and would help him write his work. They are more successful together than if they had carried out their work respectively.
