课文解析1 Understanding ideas
| What can I do?
Dear Ms White, 1 Thank you for making me director of our drama, Snow White. It is a great honour for me. I’ve never been a leader before. But a problem appeared during the very first task – giving out the roles. Lisa and Mary both wanted to play the princess. Some of the team thought Mary was better. The others went with Lisa. Everyone looked at me and expected me to decide. But I just froze. Actually, I thought Mary was better, too. But what if I was wrong? What if I hurt Lisa’s feelings? 2 My silence made Lisa angry. “I’m out!” she shouted and stormed off. Then the whole team was silent. My first day as a leader was awful! What should I do? Could you please advise me? Yours, Tony Dear Tony, 1 I completely understand your difficulties. Sometimes good teamwork is hard to achieve! So the leader should take responsibility in times of disagreement. 2 Here is my advice: 3 First, you should discuss the matter with Lisa. Why does she want to play Snow White? What are her strengths and weaknesses? You should work with her to find out. 4 Then, why not have Lisa and Mary both try two roles? For example, Snow White and the queen. All the team members can vote for the most suitable person for each role. 5 Remember: You’re the director, but you don’t have to deal with all the problems yourself. You have a whole team, so ask them, too! I hope my advice is helpful. Best wishes, Ms White |
| 亲爱的怀特女士:
1.感谢您让我担任《白雪公主》戏剧项目的导演,这对我来说是莫大的荣幸。我从未担任过领导职务。但在分配角色的首个任务中就出现了问题——丽莎和玛丽都想扮演公主。团队中有人认为玛丽更合适,其他人则支持丽莎。所有人都看着我,期待我能做出决定。但我却愣住了。其实我也觉得玛丽更合适。但如果我错了怎么办?如果我伤害了丽莎的感情怎么办? 2 我的沉默让丽莎很生气。“我退出!”她大喊着愤然离场。随后整个团队陷入沉默。我作为领导的第一天糟透了!我该怎么办?请您指点迷津吧!此致,托尼 亲爱的托尼: 我完全理解您的困扰。有时候团队协作确实很难达成共识!因此领导者在意见不合时应当主动承担责任。 2 这是我的建议: 3 首先,你应该和丽莎讨论这件事。她为什么想扮演白雪公主?她的优点和缺点是什么?你应该和她一起找出答案。 4 那么,何不让丽莎和玛丽各自尝试两个角色呢?比如白雪公主和王后。所有团队成员都可以为每个角色投票选出最合适的人选。 5 请记住:你是导演,但不必独自应对所有问题。你有整个团队,所以也请他们帮忙!希望我的建议对你有帮助。 祝好,怀特女士 |
