Meditation in Indonesian Business
It looked like a typical business meeting. Six men, neatly dressed in white shirts and ties filed into the boardroom of a small Jakarta company and sat down at a long table. But instead of consulting files or hearing reports, they closed their eyes and began to meditate（冥想）, consulting the spirits of ancient Javanese kings. Mysticism touches almost every aspect of life in Indonesia and business is no exception. One of the meditators said his weekly meditation sessions are aimed mainly at bringing the peace of mind that makes for good decision-making. But the insight gained from mystic communication with spirits of wise kings has also helped boost the profits of his five companies.
Mysticism and profits have come together since the 13th century introduction of Islam to Indonesia by Indian Moslem merchants. Those devout traders, called ‘Wali Ullah’ or ‘those close to God, ’ energetically spread both trade and religion by adapting their appeals to the native mysticism of Java. Legends attribute magic power of foreknowledge to the Wali Ullah. These powers were believed to be gained through meditation and fasting.
Businessman Hadisiko said his group fasts and meditates all night every Thursday to become closer to God and to contact the spirits of the great men of the past. ‘If we want to employ someone at the managerial level, we meditate together and often the message comes that this man can’t hole onto money or he is untrustworthy. Or maybe the spirits will tell us he should be hired.’  Hadiziko hastened to add that his companies also hold modern personnel management systems and that formal qualifications are essential for a candidate even to be considered. Perspective investments also are considered through mystic meditation. ‘With the mind relaxed and open, it is easier to be objective in judging the risk of a new venture. Meditation and contact with the wisdom of the old leaders sharpens your own insight and intuition. Then you have to apply that intuition to the information you have and work hard to be successful. ’ Mystic meditation helped reverse a business slide his companies experienced in the mid-1980. Operating with normal business procedures, he lost more than $ 3 millions in that year alone. Meditation brought back his peace of mind. Putting the right persons in the right jobs and gaining confidence in his business decisions were the keys to a turning around that has brought expansion and profitability. The mysticism in Handspike’s boardroom is part of a growing movement in Indonesia called Kebatinan – the ‘search for the inner self.’
One of his managers, Yusuf Soemado, who studied business administration at Harvard University, compared the idea of mystic management to western system of positive thinking. ‘Willpower and subconscious mind are recognized as important factors in business. Such approaches as psycho-cybernetics, Carnegie’s think and growth rates, or the power of positive thinking are western attempts to tap the same higher intelligence that we contact through meditation,’ he said.
小題1:What is the most important factor in their doing business?
A Mysticism.  B Religion.  C Meditation.  D Investment.
小題2:Whom do they consult?
A The spirits of ancient Javanese kings.  B Wali Ullah.  C Old Kings.  D Carnegie.
小題3:Why did Hadisike hasten to add ‘his companies also hold modern personnel management systems…’?
A He thought Mysticism was not so good as expected.
B To show they too focused on qualifications.
C To show they hired qualified persons.
D To show the possibility of combination of the scientific management with religion.
小題4:According to the passage, the function of the meditation is
A to gain profit from the god.  B to gain peace of mind to make decision.
C to gain foreknowledge.     D to gain objective conclusion.
小題5:What does ‘operating with normal business procedures’ refer to?

這是一篇新聞報(bào)導(dǎo)，講述印度尼西亞商人如何經(jīng)營(yíng)公司。主要采用一般到具體寫(xiě)作手法。一開(kāi)始就點(diǎn)明他們以獨(dú)特的方式――不看文件，不聽(tīng)匯報(bào)，而是閉上眼睛沉思，向古代帝王的精靈請(qǐng)示來(lái)經(jīng)營(yíng)。這種神秘主義幾乎涉及印尼生活的各個(gè)領(lǐng)域，商業(yè)也不例外。后面每段都圍繞這一主題而寫(xiě)。第二段寫(xiě)來(lái)源。第三段，應(yīng)用于商業(yè)方面的具體例子，第四段，和西方管理方法對(duì)比。
小題1:沉思。這在第一斷已有說(shuō)明。
A. 神秘主義。是個(gè)總的概念，籠罩生活各方面。而不是具體的做法和重要因素。 B. 宗教。 D. 投資。
小題2:爪哇古代帝王之精靈。答案在第一段。
B. Wali Ullah是指印度穆斯林商人。這些虔誠(chéng)的商人叫做Wali Ullah或者成為接近主的人。傳說(shuō)神話也把先知的力量歸功于Wali Ullah。C. 老帝王。D. 卡耐基，1835-1919是生于蘇格蘭的美國(guó)鋼鐵工業(yè)家和慈善家。他有一套管理企業(yè)的辦法，稱(chēng)為卡耐基思想（管理法）。
小題3:他們也重視資歷、才能。這在第三段中第二行起，商人 Hadisiko講話清楚說(shuō)明“如果我們要雇傭管理人員，我們就一起沉思，常常會(huì)有這種信息來(lái)臨：這個(gè)人不能管理錢(qián)財(cái)或者他不可靠。也可能神靈告訴我們應(yīng)當(dāng)雇傭他。接著他匆忙補(bǔ)充說(shuō)他的公司也采用現(xiàn)代人事管理系統(tǒng)，即要考慮雇傭的人員最根本的條件仍是正式資歷”。
A. 他認(rèn)為神秘主義不像想象中那么好。C. 表明他們雇傭人才。上下文說(shuō)明，他所以補(bǔ)充是說(shuō)明他們也重視資格。D. 表明科學(xué)管理和宗教結(jié)合的可能性。Hadisike語(yǔ)中沒(méi)有這種意思。但不能說(shuō)他們雇傭人才不管宗教。
小題4:得到冷靜頭腦來(lái)決策。這在第三段后半部分講到�！斑h(yuǎn)景的投資也是通過(guò)神秘的沉思加以考慮。有著放松和開(kāi)放的頭腦，易于客觀地判斷新投資的風(fēng)險(xiǎn)。沉思和過(guò)去領(lǐng)袖的接觸會(huì)是你的洞察力和感官變得敏銳�！钡谝欢蔚谖逍小捌渲幸晃怀了颊哒f(shuō)每星期的沉思會(huì)主要目標(biāo)是帶來(lái)一個(gè)平靜的頭腦，作出好決策�！�
A. 從上帝那里得到利潤(rùn)。 C. 取得先知。不對(duì)，先知的能力歸于Wali Ullah。D. 得到客觀的結(jié)論。文內(nèi)只提到，頭腦放松容易客觀地判斷投資風(fēng)險(xiǎn)與否，并不是客觀的結(jié)論。
小題5:沒(méi)有沉思和齋戒的常規(guī)作生意。見(jiàn)第三段中，神秘的沉思幫助扭轉(zhuǎn)公司生意滑坡而正常買(mǎi)賣(mài)步驟，這一年就損失了300萬(wàn)美元。這兩句對(duì)比的話說(shuō)明B項(xiàng)內(nèi)容。
A. 采用西方買(mǎi)賣(mài)方式（交易方式）。文內(nèi)沒(méi)有點(diǎn)明正常就是西方方式。C. 和上帝接觸。D. 知人善任。

Now let’s talk about doing well by doing good—many people who have ever been volunteers for the community find their place in relative jobs or even make their way to be corporate(團(tuán)體的)leaders.
Consider the case of Kimberly Mulcahy. Throughout her career, Mulcahy has actively volunteered in her community, profession and industry. Though she put in long hours as Vice President at a Fortune 500 company, she also found time to professional and community organizations.
Then last year, the unexpected thing happened. The company where she’d worked for more than 20 years was bought out and she was laid off.
On hearing the news, those who she served were quick not only to offer her support—but actual jobs! In the end, Mulcahy was hired by a PR agency—she used to work as a director of her industry association. And she brought with her several accounts based on relationships she had formed through volunteering.
Volunteering was a godsend(天賜之物)to Todd, who has been a mid-level manager at the same company for many years. After he was out of work, he felt old and disappointed. But Todd knew he needed a change. Todd became involved in community service. He joined his town’s volunteer fire department and was soon appointed to the finance committee.
Sometimes volunteering helps you bring passion to your work, other times it can turn your life’s passion into your work. Cape Cod Baseball League President Judy Scarafile is a registered pharmacist(藥劑師)whose love of the game led her to volunteered as league publicist(宣傳員), secretary and deputy commissioner woman to hold the top post.
Whether you are to enter the workforce, build your resume, or follow your passion, volunteering is good for the soul and the career.
小題1: By saying “doing well by doing good” in Paragraph 1, the author wants to_____.
A．encourage us just to do it, and it will be better
B．encourage us to try as hard as possible
C．tell us not to give up

Jeanne Calment, a French woman, became a record breaker on 17 October of 1995, when at the age of 120 years and 238 days, she became the longest-lived human being on record. A Japanese man died in 1986 at the age of 120 years and 237 days.
Jeanne Calment lives in a small old people’s home in the south of France; her husband, her only child and her grandson have all died. She is nearly blind and deaf and is always in a wheelchair, but her doctor describes her as being more like a 90-year-old in good health than someone of 120. She still has a lively sense of humor. When asked on her 120th birthday what she expected of the future, she replied: A very short one. She also remarked that she thought the good Lord had forgotten all about her. 
So what is the key to a long life? According to some doctors, diet, exercise and no smoking are the three important factors. Jeanne Calment has followed two of the tips(竅門(mén)). She has always eaten a healthy diet, and she used to do exercises every day until she broke her leg at the age of 115. However, until recently she drank two glassed of strong red wine a day, and she does smoke (now only a little). Besides, Jeanne Calment might have got very good genes(基因) from her parents. Her father lived to the age of 94 and her mother to 86. 
A local lawyer bought her house when she was 80 under an agreement that he would pay her some money every year until her death. It must have seemed a good move at the time, but so far the lawyer has paid her at least three times the value of the house. Every year on her birthday Jeanne Calment sends him a card saying:
Sorry, I’m still alive!
小題1: How does Jeanne Calment feel about her old age?

小題3: Which of the following could best replace the word “move” in the fourth paragraph?
A．dealB．trickC．march D．sport
小題4:Why does Jeanne Calment say “Sorry, I’m still alive” to the local lawyer every year on her birthday?
A．Because she had an agreement at 80 with the lawyer which was to her advantage.
B．Because she has asked the lawyer to pay her more rent than they first agreed.
C．Because the lawyer has paid her much more money than the value of the house.
D．Because the house she sold to the lawyer isn’t worth the money he has already paid.
