When it comes to success in business and success in life, there are few qualities as important as confidence.

People naturally have different levels of confidence. Some have a higher level of confidence than others do, but even those whose confidence is lacking can learn to build their level of confidence and reach their most important goals. Increasing self confidence is one of the most common reasons people give for seeking the help of psychologists and other professionals.

One of the many places where a greater level of confidence is useful is in the workplace. We all know how difficult it can be, for instance, to ask the boss for a raise. This process can be extremely difficult for those who lack confidence in their own abilities. After all, if you are unsure about your own abilities, how will you ever convince your boss that you deserve more money for the work you do?

Even if you are not asking for that big raise, having plenty of confidence in your abilities is important to success. If you are certain of your abilities, chances are that those around you, whether they are your coworkers, your colleagues or your superiors, will see that confidence, and that will help to assure them that you are the best at what you do.

Being thought of as the person to go to, and being seen as an expert in your chosen field, is naturally very important to success on the job. If you can make yourself the person people go to for guidance and advice, you will help to protect yourself from the ever present danger of downsizing. After all, if you are a recognized expert at the office, you will be regarded as an indispensable member of the team.

Having a high level of confidence, after all, does not mean overlooking the places where you could improve. Knowing what you do well and where you need help will help you enjoy increased success and confidence.

閱讀理解。

     A is for always getting to work on time.
     B is for being extremely busy.
     C is for the conscientious ( 勤勤懇懇的 ) way you do your job.
     You may be all these things at the office, and more. But when it comes to getting ahead, experts say,
the ABCs of business should include a P, for politics, as in office politics.
     Dale Carnegie suggested as much more than 50 years ago hard work alone doesn't ensure career
advancement. You have to be able to sell yourself and your ideas, both publicly and behind the scenes.
Yet, despite the obvious rewards of engaging in office politics-a better job, a raise, praise-many people
are still unable-or unwilling-to play the game.
     People assume that office politics involves some manipulative (工于心計的) behavior, says Deborah
Comer, an assistant professor of management at Hofstra University. But politics derives from the word
'polite'. It can mean lobbying(游說) and forming associations. It can mean being kind and helpful, or even
trying to please your superior, and then expecting something in return.
     In fact, today, experts define office politics as proper behavior used to pursue one's own self-interest
in the workplace. In many cases, this involves some form of socializing within the office environment-not
just in large companies, but in small workplaces as well.
     The first thing people are usually judged on is their ability to perform well on a consistent basis, says
Neil P. Lewis, a management psychologist. But if two or three candidates are up for a promotion, each
of whom has reasonably similar ability, a manager is going to promote the person he or she likes best. It's
simple human nature.
     Yet, psychologists say, many employees and employers have trouble with the concept of politics in
the office. Some people, they say, have an idealistic vision of work and what it takes to succeed. Still
others associate politics with flattery (奉承), fearful that, if they speak up for themselves, they may
appear to be flattering their boss for favors.
     Experts suggest altering this negative picture by recognizing the need for some self-promotion.

1. Office politics (Line 2, Para. 4) is used in the passage to refer to ______.

A. the code of behavior for company staff
B. the political views and beliefs of office workers
C. the interpersonal relationships within a company
D. the various qualities required for a successful career

2. To get promoted, one must not only be equal to his job but ______.

A. give his boss a good impression
B. honest and loyal to his company
C. get along well with his colleagues
D. avoid being too outstanding

3. Why are many people unwilling to play the game (Line 4, Para. 5)?

A. They believe that doing so is impractical.
B. They feel that such behavior is unprincipled.
C. They are not good at manipulating colleagues.
D. They think the effort will get them nowhere.

4. It is the author's view that ______.

A. speaking up for oneself is part of human nature
B. self-promotion does not necessarily mean flattery
C. hard work contributes very little to one's promotion
D. many employees fail to recognize the need of flattery
