. He prides himself on speaking his mind, and has something to say on everything. But his frankness is often extremely embarrassing.

He is incapable of saying, " I thought that last advertising campaign had a lot of good ideas in it, but perhaps next time we could give the copy more vitality(活力). " Instead, he would say, " That campaign was a disaster. A child of three could have done better !"

The fact that he is often right does not help. Other employees dislike his manner even more, but he is too insensitive to notice.

Another character among the list of ill-mannered employees is Sally, who seems to regard just being at work as a severe punishment. Everything is done unwillingly. Asking her to do a task beyond her basic job description is often not worth the trouble. It will be done, but only half-heartedly.

Fergus is just the opposite. He shows an over-familiarity to his boss. When an important visitor is shown into the manager's office, Fergus cannot take the hint and leave. Instead he will attempt to take part in the conversation, declaring, "You can talk in front of me. Henry and I don't have many secrets, do we？" Over the years Fergus has fallen behind his former equal. But he seeks to maintain the same close relationship that he imagines existed in their younger days.

Which of the following words describes Ted best？

A．Cold.

B．Tactless.

C．Stupid.

D．Warm-hearted.

nt, I am filled with mixed feelings. It makes me happy and excited that I’ll see my beloved wife and children soon, but at the same time I don’t want to bid farewell to you, my dear students and friends as well as Tianjin, your beautiful city.

In fact, I regard Tianjin as my second hometown, and the students and teachers here as my family members and best friends. I’ll never forget the warmest welcome you gave me when I first arrived in Tianjin. I’ll never forget the day on which you took me to the hospital when I fell ill an the dumplings that Li Ming’s parents prepared for me that night.

Yet, I still remember you were all laughing at me when I was trying to use chopsticks for the first time in Tianjin Food Street, but do you know that now I prefer chopsticks to knives and forks？

I’m very glad to see the great progress you’ve made in your English and the prosperity of vocational education in Tianjin. I am told that many graduates from this college are devoting themselves to the construction of Tianjin now. I believe your future is bright and so is the future of Tianjin.

Now I’m leaving soon, but I have a strong desire to come back to Tianjin, back to my beloved school with my family as soon as possible.

Best wishes!

Thank you!
