There are a number of factors that must be in place to make a good team.Effective leadership is one of the most important factors of good teamwork. The team’s leader should possess the skills to create and preserve a positive working environment and motivate and inspire the team members to take a positive approach to work and be highly committed. An effective team leader will promote a high level of spirit and make them feel supported and valued.
Communication is a vital factor of all interpersonal relationship and especially that of a team. Team members must be able to articulate their feelings, express plans and goals, share ideas and see each other’s opinions.
Conflicts will arise no matter how well a team functions together. The best way to deal with conflicts is to have some organized methods of handling conflicts. Team members should be able to voice their concerns without fear of offending others. Instead of avoiding conflict issues, a hands-on approach that settles them quickly is much better. It is often advised that the team leader sit with the conflicting parties and help work out their differences without taking sides and trying to remain objective if possible.
The team leader must set a good example to create good teamwork. In order to keep team members positive and committed and motivated, the team leader himself needs to show these qualities. The team turns to the leader for support and guidance. So any negative words or behaviors on the leader’s part can be disastrous.
Regardless of what type of work you are in, knowing how to effectively work on and with a team is going to be extremely important to your success and that of your team.

【文章大意】本文是一篇议论文。文章讲述了为什么有效团队很重要，形成有效团队具备的因素是什么。领导怎样带出一个有效团队。
小题1:A考查推理判断。根据第二段中的The team’s leader should possess the skills to create and preserve a positive working environment可知，创造积极的工作环境是重要原因的一部分。故选A。B项错在偷梁换柱，此处的a leader应是members；C项错在领导应该具有很多技能，而不是帮助领导培养技能。D项与文章内容不符。
小题2:B考查猜测词义。根据文章第三段中的Team members must be able to articulate their feelings, express plans and goals, share ideas and see each other’s opinions.可知，express，share和articulate是并列关系，它们又相近的意思。所以选B。
小题3:C考查细节理解。根据文章第四段中的It is often advised that the team leader sit with the conflicting parties and help work out their differences without taking sides and trying to remain objective if possible.可知，领导应该找出冲突双方意见的不同。故选C。
小题4:B考查推理判断。根据文章第五段中的In order to keep team members positive and committed and motivated, the team leader himself needs to show these qualities.可知，要成为一个好的领导，要有积极和尽心尽力的精神。故选B。
小题5:D 考查文章的标题。根据文章的整体内容可知，第一段总说：有效的团队能产生惊人的效果，有效的团队需具有许多因素。然后第二大段分说：1.有效的领导；2.沟通和交流；3.正确解决冲突；4.好的领导应具备的品质。第三大段总结，有效的团队是你成功的极其重要的因素。所以，统揽全文可知D是最好的题目。

日常生活类阅读题答题技巧：
【题型说明】
该类文章内容涉及到人们的言谈举止、生活习惯、饮食起居、服饰仪表、恋爱婚姻、消遣娱乐、节日起源、家庭生活等。文章篇幅短小，追根溯源，探索各项风俗的历史渊源，内容有趣。命题也以送分题为主，如事实细节题、语义转换题、词义猜测题和简单推理判断题等。虽然这类文章读起来感觉轻松，试题做起来比较顺手，但绝不能掉以轻心。因为稍不留神，就会丢分。
【备考提醒】
为了保证较高准确率，建议同学们做好以下几点：
1、保持正常的考试心态。笔者在教学中发现，越是容易的试题，同学们越是容易失分。为什么呢？因为在这种情况下，同学们极易产生麻痹思想，认为题目好做，就不引起高度重视，于是思维不发散、不周密。而命题人就是利用同学们的这一弱点，设计陷阱题。所以，无论试题难易与否，我们都要保持正常的考试心态。试题容易，不欣喜；试题难，不悲观。
2、根据前面讲到的方法，认认真真、细细心心做好事实细节题。
3、做好语义转换题。这类题是根据英语中一词多义和某些词语在文中能表达一定的修辞意义的原则而设计的。要求同学们解释某生词的含义，确定多义词或短语在文中的意思，确认文中的某个代词所指代的对象，或者对英语中特有的表达、格言、谚语进行解释。这种题要求同学们一定要根据上下文猜测词义或理解句子，切不可望文生义。
4、做好简单推理判断题。简单推理判断题要以表面文字为前提，以具体事实为依据进行推理，做出判断。这种推理方式比较直接，只要弄清事实，即可结合常识推断出合理的结论。
