But when were acting as leaders, the

59、circumstances are different. The act of apology is carried out not merely at the level of the individual but also at the level of the institution. It is a performance in which every expression matters and every word becomes part of the public record. Refusing to apologize can be smart, or it can be

60、stupid. So, readiness to apologize can be seen as a sign of strong character or as a sign of weakness. A successful apology can turn hate into personal and organizational harmonywhile an apology that is too little, too late, or too obviously strategic can bring on individual and institutional ruin.

61、What, then, is to be done? How can leaders decide if and when to apologize publicly?Why Now?The question of whether leaders should apologize publicly has never been more urgent. During the last decade or so, the United States in particular has developed an apology cultureapologies of all kinds and f

62、or all sorts of wrongdoings are made far more frequently than before. More newspaper writers have written about the growing importance of public apologies. More articles, cartoons, advice columns, and radio and television programs have similarly dealt with the subject of private apologies.Why Bother

63、?Why do we apologize? Why do we ever put ourselves in situations likely to be difficult, embarrassing, and even risky? Leaders who apologize publicly could be an easy target. They are expected to appear strong and capable. And whenever they make public statements of any kind, their individual and in

64、stitutional reputations are in danger. Clearly, then, leaders should not apologize often or lightly. For a leader to express apology, there needs to be a good, strong reason. Leaders will publicly apologize if and when they think the costs of doing so are lower than the costs of not doing so.Why Ref

65、use?Why is it that leaders so often refuse to apologize, even when a public apology seems to be in order? Their reasons can be individual or institutional. Because leaders are public figures, their apologies are likely to be personally uncomfortable and even professionally risky. Leaders may also be

66、 afraid that admission of a mistake will damage the organization for which they are responsible. There can be good reasons for hanging tough in tough situations, as we shall see, but it is a high-risk strategy.When should a leader apologize and when not?Why is it so difficult to apologize publicly?W

67、hy has the issue of public apology been so 4 in the USA? Why do leaders bother so much about public apologies?Why do leaders often refuse to apologize publicly?Public apology is much 1 than a personal act.Its no 2 job to strike a balance between apologizing or not.Apologies not 3 offered can bring o

68、n individual and institutional ruin.In an apology 5 , admission of all sorts of wrongdoings is more required than before.The 6 importance of public apologies has been widely reported in the mass media. Being public figures, leaders are 7 to appear strong and capable.There needs to be a sufficient re

69、ason for a leader to apologize in 8 . Making apologies is 9 to be personally uncomfortable and even professionally risky.Admission of a mistake or wrongdoing will probably do 10 to their organization.第五部分 书面表达 (满分25分)阅读下列文字，并按照要求用英语写一篇150词左右的文章。New technologies have promoted the development of urban

75、sources and industrial production are the major pollution sources in Chinese cities. They have damaged our life, environment and even the future development. Various forms of pollution, including air pollution, noise pollution, and water pollution, have increased as Chinese cities develop fast, whic

76、h has caused many problems and concerns. Furthermore, with the development of modern industry and environment, so it is getting increasingly worse. Measures must be taken to balance city development environmental protection. First of all, our government should make more strict laws to limit the use of private cars. Whats more, we are supposed to raise our awareness o f environmental protection and push for the use of alternative energy, such as solar energy and wind energy. Only by applying sustainable development can we have a better world to live in.
