34、 50 A large part of effective leadership is dependent on something called “style“. But style is difficult to teach, and what makes one leader great and another mediocre is not easily defined. Leadership always implies power, and a broad definition in this context is that leadership includes the powe

35、r to influence thoughts and actions of others in such a way that they achieve higher satisfaction and/or performance. Over the past century, there have been three major approaches to understanding leadership. Identifying leadership traits, or the physical and psychological characteristics of leaders

36、, was the first formal approach, and had a lot of intuitive appeal. It owed its origins to the mm of the century (about 1904) when trait studies began. At this time most American leaders came from certain wealthy families, the vast majority were white males, and there were some social norms about wh

37、at leaders looked like (tall, square jaw, well groomed, etc.). The original assumption that “leaders are born, not made“ has been discredited, because there were too many exceptions to the traits to give them any credibility. Beginning after World War II, in sharp contrast to the trait approach, the

38、 behavioral approach looked at what a leader does, what behaviors leaders use that set them apart from others. This approach assumed that leadership could be learned. Virtually all of the studies focused on classifying behaviors according to whether they fell into a process or “people approach“ (sat

39、isfying individual needs), or a “task approach“ (getting the job done). The basis for this classification was in the discovery in social psychology that every group needs someone to fulfill both these roles in the group for it to be effective. The earliest of these studies began in Ohio State Univer

40、sity and the University of Michigan in the late 1940s. Many of the early trait and behavioral writers tried to make their ideas applicable to all leadership situations. The earliest situational approach to leadership was developed in 1958. This approach strived to identify characteristics of the sit

41、uation that allowed one leader to be effective where another was not. The trend later developed toward the third approach, understanding the unique characteristics of a situation and what kind of leadership style best matches with these. 51 Which of the following questions does the author answer in

42、Paragraph 1? （ A） What is “style“? （ B） Is power the most important aspect of leadership? （ C） How many main historical approaches have there been to leadership? （ D） Why is leadership so difficult to define? 52 The word “context“ underlined in Paragraph 1 most probably means _. （ A） setting （ B） li

43、mit （ C） generality （ D） work 53 The assumption that “leaders are born, not made“ has lost credibility because _. （ A） better theories have since been developed （ B） there were too many exceptions to the rule （ C） it was found not to be the most important factor （ D） it was not proved after World Wa

44、r II 54 According to Paragraph 2, which of the following is NOT one of the three major approaches to understanding leadership? （ A） Situation. （ B） Trait. （ C） Power. （ D） Behavior. 55 The word “norms“ underlined in Paragraph 2 most probably means _. （ A） requirements （ B） acceptance （ C） preference

45、 （ D） standards 56 The word “them“ underlined in Paragraph 2 most probably means _. （ A） assumptions （ B） leaders （ C） exceptions （ D） traits 57 What was the assumption of the behavioral approach? （ A） That leaders are born, not made. （ B） That leadership could be learned. （ C） That leadership could

46、 be classified into two functions. （ D） That every effective group needs someone to fill each of the two roles. 58 What is the foundation for the classification of behaviors in the behavioral approach? （ A） That an effective group needs both task and process roles fulfilled. （ B） That getting the jo

47、b done is a more important task than satisfying individual needs. （ C） That both could be taught. （ D） That both could be applied to all leadership situations. 59 The word “strived“ underlined in Paragraph 2 means _. （ A） achieved （ B） stressed （ C） tried （ D） failed 60 Which of the three approaches

48、 tended to later gain most acceptance? （ A） situation （ B） trait （ C） power （ D） behavior 60 Childrens literature traces its beginnings to preliterate times, when ancient storytellers passed tales and legends from generation to generation in the oral tradition. William Caxton, who established Englan

49、ds first printing press, published books of etiquette, fables and legends. However, these didnt constitute a body of work that could be considered literature for children. Because children at that time were considered “miniature adults“, books were didactic in nature. The content for young readers consisted mainly of religious instruction, rules of behavior, ethical messages, and moral platitudes. In 1774, Englishman John Newberry changed childrens
