29、o remember the days when they had tails and no legs. “Kerrump! Im chief of this pool!” croaked(呱呱叫) a frog. “Kerrump! Im chief of this pool!” replied another frog.

30、ve a frightened croak, and kicked hard to get away.The crane almost had him when something wound(纏繞) one of his legs. He drew back for a second, and the frog got away!

31、rst frog was silent, but the second frog croaked: “Kerrump! Im chief of this pool!”The crane got hungry again and went round the pool, trying to catch the second frog.

33、f of this pool!”The crane decided to silence him once and for all. The frog croaked and tried to get away. But just then, a fox crept up behind the crane.

39、provement in happiness; but the third group didnt get any happier.

40、ms to have something to do with happiness as well.The researchers found that people generally felt happier when they were asked to remember a time they had bought something for someone else; even happier than when they remembered buying something for themselves.

They are often overlooked(忽略), but they have been very helpful for me. First, pick a company that is dedicated(一心一意的) to helpin

46、g people. Then your life will be devoted to a job full of meaning. In 1949 I started a company called Medtronic with two people to repair electronic medical equipment, but now our company has over 31,000 workers in 120 countries around the world. In our first month we made eight dollars, but this ye

47、ar the electronic devices that Medtronic has developed will make nearly nine million dollars.Second, do more work than is required. Find ways to go beyond the details of your task. And work further on it. The more, the better. You need strong passion and enthusiasm(熱愛) for your work.Third, “Ready, A

48、im, Fire!” This is the way I have practiced all my life. There are always decisions to be made. In my experience, it is better not to get caught in over-analysis(過度分析) of a problem. Many of the decisions at Medtronic were made very quickly. The first pacemaker(心臟起搏器) took only four weeks to be devel

49、oped from the idea to first use. The first design was not perfect, of course, but it worked. Fourth, study continuously. Knowledge is increasing very rapidly. The technical information you have learned at schools will be out of date in two years if you dont use it. You need to read and learn through

50、 your life. I try to keep up the joy of learning.Fifth, try to create new things in your work. The North Hawaii Community Hospital is very different from any other hospital in the world. It is designed to help cure patients, rather than acting as a house center for their sick bodies. Live your life

51、according to these five principles(原則) and follow your dreams. You can shape the future to make your dreams come true, but you must work for it - dont just hope it will happen! 36 for those who will leave colleges soonFirstIts better to choose a company that is aimed at helping people. Then your life will be 37 . SecondDo more 38 your task. Put more passion and love into your work. T
