2.outlook [5autluk] n. 观点,见解,展望,前景

金钱与成功

诵读导言

如果你工作只是为了赚钱,那么你永远不会获得成功。如果你热爱本职工作,时时将客户放在首位,那么成功将非你莫属。

不要认为,钱赚得最多就意味着成功。在幸福面前,钱不是最重要的。要喜欢正在做的事,享受全心全意工作和为顾客服务的极大乐趣。这一积极的态度会引领你取得新的成功。

口语点津

经常有人把“我把你看作我最好的朋友”说成“I consider you as my best friend.”其实native speaker 总是单独使用“consider”,而将“as”去掉。除“consider”以外,其他表示“视为,看作”的词,如regard,look on,view,perceive,value等均要与“as”配合使用。
