...My viewpoints on social networking Hello, Good morning,honorable judges,ladies and gentlemen! it is my a great honor for me to be here to share with you some of my viewpoints about social networking here . Social working is about people engaging with people(社交网络是关于人与人的互动的). As highly social animals, we human beings have always been interdependent and interactive. No man is an island, and you can’t live in a vacuum (没有人是孤立的,也没有人生活在真空中). Rather than remaining among our family from birth to death, we venture out. We spend our days mixing with great numbers of unfamiliar members of our species. Therefore, for human beings social networking is a way of life and a state of being. (对人类而言,社交网络是一种生活方式和一种存在状态). Concerning almost everybody in the society, social networking has far-reaching effects on all of usour growth. To put it into another way, social networking, which takes up a large proportion of our day-to-day life, may decide on our future academic and career development to some extent. “Birds of a feather flock together(人以群分)”. Connecting people in our social network who have common interests, we can not only share ideas, information and resources, but also offer each other help and support when necessary. This can further exemplified by the fact that many In many cases, social skills and interactions are crucial to success. In addition to great academic intelligence(非凡的学术智能) and good qualities like commitment (敬业)， perseverance（坚忍不拔）and confidence, most successful...

...is determined by you, and only you. This difference is what makes the world interesting. Most of the happiness that we experience comes from the feeling of love. So many people look to their love relationships,especially marriage to give them the happiness that they cannot find on their own. Love is not enough to provide happiness, then there must be many frustrated lovers in the world. The belief that love gurantess happiness is left over from the ideology of romantic love that tells us we will live happily ever after if we can only find the right person with whom to spend our life with. If we realize that love by itself will not bring happiness, then hopefully we will be more tolerant of the imperfections of those we love. If our relatioships have their problems and if those we love do not always meet our expectations it doesn't mean that we have lost our chance for happiness. When we do not expect love to give us the happiness we seen, there will be more room for forgiveness of the imperfections and problems that always accompany love. What makes us happy is so varied. To be happy is a fleeting thing,...

...Explore the ways that Susan Hill presents Hilliard’s character in Part 1 of Strange Meeting. From the very beginning of the novel ‘Strange Meeting’, the character Susan Hill creates called John Hilliard is a soldier on sick leave in the First World War. “He is a man of few words” as he is described later in Part 1. Hilliard cannot express his feelings openly but has to have someone who he can trust greatly and feel safe with. He has sleeping difficulties throughout Part 1 caused by the fact that he does not want to be at his home in Hawton by the Sea. He has never had a relationship with his family, “He had been unhappy at home, where he could talk to no one, nobody knew”. He couldn’t relate his experiences of war with people who didn’t understand the true devastation of it, who thought that it was an easy done deal, that the British were going to win over the Germans, it would all be over by Christmas and blood wasn’t being spilt. The only person in his family he is close to and has a relationship with is his older sister Beth. John Hilliard trusts and knows that his sister Beth will understand his disturbances from the war that are giving him constant nightmares. He depended on her to relate to him, because know one else did, but he wouldn’t let anybody else in to his inner circle, “Beth, Beth. He had always gone to Beth.” Baths support for John was shown in a memory of when the two of them were swimming in the sea one summer holiday. Beth helped John overcome his fear...

By indicating the “ Strength “ of each dimension simply as high or low, he arrive at four combinations which can be describe as 4 different styles of Leadership as follows : Directive Leadership: In Directive-leadership style leader are more focus on task itself . Leader will explain what must be done / how to do it / and when must be done with some deadlines. Consultative Leadership : Consultative is where leader are high supportive and high emphasis on task. In consultative leader are directive but in little more supportive way. Here leader will explain what needs to be done / when it has to be done and why it has to be done by offering some supportiveness to the team memebers. Participative Leadership : High supportive but less focus on task. Here leader might say what has to be done but not so much how to do it. Delegative Leadership : Low task and low supportive behavior. Leader will told followers simply what should be done and them left them alone to figure it out how to accompolish it by team members. There is no such style as the best style when it comes to effective project mangement . It all depends on situation of the project and its followers. In addition to that its ability and willingness of followers to perform a given task. However...

...LITERATURE SURVEY On Job Satisfaction and Leadership Berikut merupakan survei literatur tentang faktor-faktor yang menentukan kepuasan kerja. Kepuasan kerja dan motivasi dipengaruhi secara positif oleh variabel pengakuan dan penghargaan dengan dimensi sebagai berikut: peluang promosi, prosedur operasi, pekerjaan itu sendiri, pengakuan, relasi dengan rekan kerja, kepuasan terhadap kompensasi, rasa aman, supervisor, dan pengembangan karier (Danis & Usman, 2010). Kepuasan kerja juga berkorelasi positif dengan keadilan organisasional: keadilan distributif, prosedural, interaksional (Al-Zu’bi, 2010). Pada perusahaan dengan tingkat upah yang rendah dan tingkat kepuasan karyawan sedang, kontribusi faktor-faktor kepuasan kerja paling besar ditentukan oleh faktor rekan sekerja, lingkungan kerja, dan pemimpin, tetapi paling rendah oleh faktor upah dan tunjangan (Salviah, 2002). Persepsi karyawan terhadap keadilan kompensasi memiliki korelasi yang signifikan terhadap kepuasan kerjanya (Astuti, 2001) Kebalikannya dari kepuasan kerja karyawan tingkat operasional, Batthi (20010) stres ditentukan 67% oleh faktor di dalam organisasi (beban kerja, waktu kerja, kepemimpinan, kebijakan perusahaan, kondisi kerja) dan 33% faktor di luar organisasi (kondisi ekonomi, keluarga karyawan, cuaca).
