To help you out, we have put together a list of books that you absolutely must read to achieve success.The 7 Habit of Highly Effective People Stephen R. CoveyThis is one of the best self-help books that you will find when you are looking to achieve success. The author informs the reader that the key to success is finding the right balance in your personal and professional life.What makes the Great Ones GreatDon YaegerThe author of this self-help book asked more that 2,500 highly successful people how they managed to reach the top.

As a result, you will have full control over your emotions and therefore will be equipped with the ability to identify problems and find solutions that bring happiness.How to Win Friends and Influence peopleDale CarnegieA groundbreaking book written in 1937, it remains required reading at colleges and universities everywhere, especially in business schools. The key takeaway is that success comes when you are able to handle people the right way. This means using powers of persuasion to get them to see your point of view.16. Who believes a work-life balance is essential to success?A. Don Yaeger B. Dale Carnegie C. Travis Bradberry D. Stephen R. Covey 17. Which book is based on many interviews?A.

Setting realistic goals. B. Practicing self-reflection. C. Keeping a positive mind. D. Having good communication skills. BA week into the stay-at-home order. I longed for connection. But not the kind available from a screen. Inside my wallet I found 10 stamps, and I put out a tweet: “Today I am going to write letters to send through the post. Direct message me your snail mail address if you want a random letter.”On the first day, I wrote to strangers in Arizona, California, Missouri, New York, Texas and Washington. The next day, I wrote to an 11-year-old who was born in Plano, Texas, where I grew up. I wrote to a letter carrier from Minnesota who requested a letter for himself. The 10 stamps ran out quickly, so I restocked. By the time Id finished sending a letter to anyone who requested one, Id written over 50 letters to addresses in almost every state. I am “very online”, so its obviously much easier to reach far more than one person at a time with a tweet. But the process of sitting down to compose a letter by hand, addressing an envelope and stamping it is filled with extra intention. It feels like a way to show an old-fashioned kind of caring, the kind that can travel the distance and be similar to a hug.I wanted to be frank about signaling the letters came from a real human , and nothing automatic, so finding ways to personalize each one was key. When I ran out of my personal letter paper, I found my four-year-old daughter Isas doodles(涂鸦) in a notebook and wrote my letters on those pages.I never expected replies. The satisfaction for me was in writing to people and knowing theyd receive something rare. But the replies ended up being the best part. I received dozens of handwritten replies. People wrote to me about how they were spending their time. A lot of letters included wishes for what comes out of this crisis. The one consistent hope was that the attention were paying to each other can continue in the next phase of our living history.19. What can be inferred from Paragraph 2?A. The author had long-standing friends all over America.B. The author selected a stranger in each state to receive a letter.C. The authors act of sending handwritten letters was well-received.D. The authors attempts to write to everyone asking for a letter were in vain.20. How does the author feel about snail mail?A. It enjoys popularity among close friends. B. It gives people a sense of closeness.C. It is really old-fashioned. D. It is relatively inefficient.21. What was the best part of writing letters to strangers according to the author?A. Receiving constant attention from strangers. B. Getting answers from the recipients.C.Supporting each other during the crisis. D. Writing all the letters by hand.
