Don’t Look Down!
A real-life “Spider-Man” has climbed some of the world’s tallest buildings… with no ropes
or safety equipment
French climber, Alain Robert, well known for his amazing ability to climb enormous buildings,
has succeeded in reaching the top of one of the highest structures in the world. He climbed
the 452-metre Tower Two of the Petronas Twin Towers in Kuala Lumpur, the capital of
Malaysia. Robert took two hours to complete his climb and, as usual, he used no ropes or
safety equipment. If he had slipped, there was nothing between him and the road far below.
For 15 years, Robert has fascinated spectators and angered security guards by climbing
skyscrapers and monuments, such as the Eiffel Tower in Paris and the Golden Gate Bridge in
San Francisco, California.
How does he do it?
He is an expert climber and makes his way slowly to the top by gripping window ledges and
placing his fingers in cracks in the wall. He keeps a small bag of powder around his waist, to
dry the sweat on his hands. Huge crowds gather to watch his terrifying climbs, but his
activities have brought him a lot of trouble - he has been put into prison on four different
continents. This is because he rarely gets permission for his climbs. He usually begins in
darkness, appearing at dawn, already some distance up the side of his chosen building, and
before anyone can stop him.
Success at last?
This was Robert’s third attempt to climb one of the Petronas Towers. On the two previous
occasions, he had been stopped by security guards halfway through the climb. In this latest
attempt, after finally reaching the top, he was immediately arrested. Robert was not too
worried, however. “Climbing the Petronas has always been one of my dreams,” he said.
Some problems on the way to the top
The “Spider-Man” may have completed many successful climbs, but his attempts have not
been without problems. When he was climbing the 100-storey Willis Tower in Chicago, a
thick fog descended and covered the glass walls of the building with moisture, making it very
wet and dangerous. He reached the top, but only after slow and careful progress. In London,
he was caught in a storm and had to be rescued by window cleaners.
A recent fall…
More recently, Robert fell and needed emergency surgery for a painful cut after climbing… a
small tree. He was being photographed for a magazine interview at the time.

4) What does Robert carry to help him grip the buildings?

(b) Grips for the window ledges
(c) Ropes and safety equipment

(a) He destroys the buildings
(b) He begins his climbs in darkness
(c) He is seen at dawn
(d) He rarely gets permission for his climbs
6) When does Robert usually begin his climbs?

(b) He slipped from a glass wall
(c) He was sick after climbing
(d) He fell from a tree and cut himself
Passage 2 - Leadership
Your success as a manager can be determined by how you interact with people. The role of a
manager as a leader is an important part of these interactions. Leadership involves
influencing colleagues so that they follow a given direction or goal.
It is often stated that leadership has three main functions within a group:
The ‘people function’—here leadership helps to maintain the morale, social cohesion and
motivation of a group of workers. A leader should act as an ambassador for the group. In this
role the leader will ensure the group has sufficient funds to carry out its tasks. If the leader
can be seen to have influence outside the group then there will be more influence within the
group.
The ‘task function’ – here leadership involves deciding what the tasks of the group of
employees are and then making sure that they are carried out successfully. Don’t just
criticize poor performance; remember to praise colleagues for work well done – this shows
that you are aware of the effort colleagues are putting into their work.
The ‘strategic function’ – leadership here helps with the development of a sense of purpose
and direction for the group or organization. A group of workers that knows what they are
trying to achieve will be more efficient and better motivated than a group that doesn’t know
what it’s supposed to be doing.
A manager’s ability to influence people depends on a range of factors: how much power the
manager has over the group – for example regarding pay and promotion issues;
knowledge—how well the manager knows the systems present in an organization and how
many personal contacts the manager has within the organization (here we’re talking about
‘networking’—the ability to make and maintain useful contacts); finally there’s the
manager’s ability to develop and maintain interpersonal relationships based on trust and
understanding – a good networker has these skills.
Good communication is another crucial element to successful leadership. A good leader is
aware both of the message to be communicated and of the importance of effective
communication to influence members of the group. A manager’s behavior – what they do in
the workplace – is a vital component of the message they communicate to colleagues. It is
essential to be a role model for the policies you advocate. And remember, always accept
responsibility for your mistakes, don’t blame colleagues for things that you do badly. No one
is perfect, just remember this when you interact with colleagues -- they know it and you
shouldn’t forget it.
Match the words from the text with their correct definitions and then write the
corresponding letter after the question order. 把下列词汇与其正确含义进行匹配,并把相
对应的字母标号写在词汇数字后面。
Definition Vocabulary
A The feeling of belonging to a group 1 Interact with people

D Mix with people; communicate with

4 A sense of purpose
E Persuade people you work with to

的词汇填到下面的段落中。
