TEAM SPIRIT Team spirit can make or break a team. Teammates who have team spirit are better able to work together and achieve team goals. They are also more satisfied with their team activities. John Wooden, a former basketball coach at UCLA, said, “Team spirit means you are willing to sacrifice personal considerations for the welfare of all. That defines a team player.” There are certain skills team members develop that serve as good examples of team spirit. COOPERATION Cooperating is simply working together as teammates for the good of the team. Cooperation is a skill that team members can sharpen during practice. For example, basketball players must practice passing the ball in different plays and situations. Team efficiency is directly related to the cooperation of its members. Acting cooperatively is a good way to show team spirit because doing so contributes to the overall success of the team. MOTIVATION Team members must fulfil their duties with their full efforts. Staying motivated shows team spirit because it shows that you want the team to do well. This includes being motivated to give your best in practice and in competition, as well as outside of team activities. For example, a baseball player can show team spirit by being motivated to practice his swing outside of practice. RESPECT Respect for your fellow team members is a must. You can show respect to your teammates by treating everyone fairly and equally. Teammates also respect each other by allowing everyone to participate. Respecting fellow teammates keeps everyone in a good mood and encourages overall team spirit. For example, people can show team spirit through respect by encouraging other team members who might be struggling.

Door-knocking is the most effective way of making face-to-face community contact, but it has become a lost art. With the recent focus on customer privacy, door-knocking seems like an intrusion into other people's lives. But those who try it for the first time are usually surprised by the pleasant reception they receive. Here are some suggestions that will help you promote your services face-to-face.
BEFORE YOU GO OUT
Begin with a door hanger
Try leaving a door hanger two days before you go door knocking. It should briefly describe the project and say that someone will be around in person.

Door-knockers should wear name tags with the logo of their organization. The best name tags will also include a color photo and the name of the caller.
Have people knock their own blocks
The easiest way to do door-knocking is to try your local area first. Being a neighbor creates an immediate connection with the person answering the door; after that, everything else is easy.
WHEN YOU GO OUT
When to go and what to do first
The best times to knock are usually Saturdays. On other days, after dinner is ideal. When someone answers the door, smile and introduce yourself. Give the name of your organization and, briefly, the reason for the visit.
State what action the other person should take and the benefits
Tell the person what they need to do and how their actions will benefit themselves and others.
Record contact information on the spot
Record names, addresses, email addresses, phone numbers, and responses to questions on the spot. You won't remember them later!

C
Is there someone you hate? Well, maybe you don’t really hate them. But you get really angry every time you think of them. If you don’t let this anger go, it can turn into bitterness (痛苦).
Bitterness appears when we can’t forgive (原谅) someone who has hurt us or made us angry. Someone might say or do something that hurts us. But instead of controlling the anger, we keep it deep inside. Before long, a bitter feeling begins to grow. We may think we’re hurting that person by criticizing (指责) him or her often, but we’re really only hurting ourselves.
Bitterness can not only lead to serious health problems such as heart disease, but also hurt our relationships with friends and family members. No one enjoys being around an angry person for very long.
If you see bitterness in your life, here are some ways to deal with it.
l Accept it
Instead of trying to deny your anger, make it clear to yourself and accept it. See your anger for what it is and quickly deal with it.
l Stop making excuses for it
You may feel you have a right to be angry. You may think you’re right and the other person is wrong. You may even secretly enjoy making the other person look bad. But in the end, bitterness hurts you much more than the other person. The bitterness will hold you back, and the other person will go on with his or her life.
l Forgive and forget it
You probably can’t completely put the anger out of your mind. But you can decide to forgive the other person. Forget it and move on. You’ll enjoy better health and peace of mind.
66. According to the passage, we might get angry when someone __________.
A. holds us back B. forgets us C. doesn’t like us D. does hurt us

SUCCESSFUL TEAM WORK AND TEAM BUILDING Team building skills are critical for your effectiveness as a manager or entrepreneur. And even if you are not in a management or leadership role yet, better understanding of team work can make you a more effective employee and give you an extra edge in your corporate office. Team building success is when your team can accomplish something much bigger and work more effectively than a group of the same individuals working on their own. There are two critical factors in building a high performance team. The first factor in team effectiveness is the diversity of skills and personalities. It means people use their strengths in full, but can compensate for each other's weaknesses. Or, different personality types balance and complement each other. The other critical element of team work success is that all the team efforts are directed towards the same clear goals, the team goals. This relies heavily on good communication in the team and harmony in member relationships. In real life, team work success rarely happens by itself if there are no focused team building efforts or activities. There is simply too much room for problems. For example, different personalities may build up conflicts. Or even worse, some people with similar personalities may start fighting for authority and dominance in certain areas of expertise. Even if the team goals are clear and accepted by everyone, there may be no team commitment to the group goals, or no consensus on the means of achieving those goals. There may be a lack of trust and openness which may block the critical communication and lead to loss of coordination in the individual efforts. This is why every team needs a good leader who is able to deal with all team work issues.
1. Team building skills are not so critical if you are only an employee.()
2. To form. a high performance team, you need many important factors.()
3. A good team should have a diversity of personalities.()
4. Team work success is quite common in practice.()
