奥运时评：13亿人的期望不该由刘翔一人扛

http://www.sina.com.cn  2008年08月18日17:11  人民网

　　全国人民都惊愣了：刘翔满脸痛苦地退出了比赛！教练孙海平在面对记者提问时，这条硬汉也忍不住热泪长流，他的弟子太不容易了！“三个医生在帮他，实在没有办法了！”

　　一场田径的预赛，“鸟巢”却座无虚席，都是冲着刘翔的“第一枪”去的。我的手中，也捏着两张好不容易买到的男子110米栏的门票，然而，那天已经没有刘翔了。相信捏着票的很多观众，都不无怅然，其中更包括特地来京观赛的刘翔亲友团。

　　其实，刘翔试跑了几步，跨了一次栏，就痛得咬牙的表情，已经让人有了不祥的预感。在他之前，美国名将特拉梅尔枪响后也是跨了一次栏，就栽倒在场上，相信所有人都在祈祷：刘翔不要成为第二个特拉梅尔。

　　遗憾的是，刘翔还是成了特拉梅尔第二，因伤退赛。

　　相信全国13亿人没有一个人想到，刘翔是以这样的方式亮相和退出北京奥运的“鸟巢”。网上很快就热议一片，绝大部分网友都宽容、怜惜和鼓励着我们的英雄。但也有极少数人在冷嘲热讽，甚至怀疑刘翔是借伤回避压力才退出比赛。姑且不论此议是否太不厚道，审视此类舆论的背后，就透着很不奥林匹克、很不人性的偏狭心态。刘翔怎么就不能受伤？全世界的顶尖运动员面临的最大敌人之一，就是自己的伤病，田径更是伤病频发的所在，刘翔难道就可以例外？当你靠着沙发、喝着啤酒观看运动员的奋力一搏，所能奉献的，就是运动员失意时候的冷言冷语？

　　奥林匹克的终级目标，是人类追求健康、阳光的生活方式。“适度”，是奥林匹克之父顾拜旦早就提出的诤言。法国举重运动员旺斯拉·达巴亚·蒂安切面临男子62-69公斤级的最后一举，他摇摇头放弃了，因为那超出了他的极限。他的教练和队友们，仍然给他英雄般的欢呼。如果刘翔非要强忍伤病，咬紧牙关去冲第一轮比赛，然后倒在了下一轮比赛的赛道上，是否我们才会原谅他，才会用“拼搏到底”来赞美他的坚忍不拔，哪怕他会付出从此失去运动生命甚至是健康正常生活的代价？

　　放弃这种残忍而畸型的思维方式吧！我们曾经为了运动员拼死获得奥运银牌却造成了终身残疾而感动，而奉上英雄的称号。但是，这不是我们希望的结局。刘翔的放弃，让我们看到了一个运动员对自己健康的尊重，对观众的尊重。这是运动员应有的尊严，也是奥林匹克精神所包含的题中应有之义——“适度”。

　　刘翔说了：“不是万不得已，我不会退出比赛！”请尊重刘翔。尽管他背负着13亿人的期望，但是，他有权保护自己健康的底线，他有权受伤！

　　迄今为止，北京奥运会进行顺利，一切都呈现着超乎想像的完美。也许，从中国观众的角度，从赛场欣赏的角度，刘翔的因伤退赛是一个意外。但是，天下没有绝对的十全十美，刘翔的退赛，也许只是一个审美上的小小缺憾。但是，这样的镜头，或许会让北京奥运会显得更加丰富，也给我们留下更多的思考：一个13亿人的民族，或许不该把所有期望都压在一个男孩子的肩头，那可能是一种怠惰，还是将一个民族奔腾的压力，分散给我们自己，我们每一个人吧！然后，带着愉悦的心情，去观看运动员充满美感和力量的比赛……

　　孙导别哭，让刘翔好好养伤，他还年轻。甚至，他敢于因伤退赛，是中国体育的进步！

　　至于我们，还会继续观看比赛。看着手中两张男子110米栏决赛的门票，12岁的女儿说：当然去！我们去为罗伯斯，也许还可以为史东鹏加油！

Looking back at myself, I am impatient to Str, Rich, Kit when...:(

what my feeling will be if others show their impatience & disrespection to me...

16. Has anything ever irritated you about people you’ve worked with?
Of course, you have a list as long as your arm. But you can’t say that, it shows you a***eing negative and difficult to work with. The best way to answer this one is to think for a while and then say something like “I’ve always got on just fine with my co-workers actually.”

Use this question as a chance to show that you are a team player: “The only people I have trouble with are those who aren’t team players, who just don’t perform, who complain constantly, and who fail to respond to any efforts to motivate them.” The interviewer is expecting a response focused on personality and personal dislikes. Surprise her by delivering an answer that reflects company values

17. Is there anyone you just could not work with?
No. Well, unless you’re talking about murderers, racists, rapists, thieves or other dastardly characters, you can work with anyone. Otherwise you could be flagged as someone who’s picky and difficult if you say, “I can’t work with anyone who’s a Bronco’s fan. Sorry.”

18. Tell me about any issues you’ve had with a previou***oss.
Arrgh! If you fall for this one you shouldn’t be hired anyway. The interviewer is testing you to see if you’ll speak badly about your previous supervisor. Simply answer this question with exteme tact, diplomacy and if necessary, a big fat loss of memory. In short, you’ve never had any issues.

The answer to 18 is completely wrong. I am a director at a major media company’s interactive division. Our company is expanding and I am almost in a constant state of hiring. I ask a variation of this question in every single interview and if a candidate has never had one issue or disagreement with anyone, (I stated a variation: I ask if it has happened with anyone in the workplace) I peg them as a liar and reject them immediately.

I went well with my previou***oss. If there is an conflict, I will be open mind and talk about facts. once decision is made, I execute it well.

19. Would you rather work for money or job satisfaction?
It’s not a very fair question is it? We’d all love to get paid a Trump-like salary doing a job we love but that’s rare indeed. It’s fine to say money is important, but remember that NOTHING is more important to you than the job. Otherwise, you’re just someone looking for a bigger paycheck.

20. Would you rather be liked or feared?
I have been asked this a lot, in various incarnations. The first time I just drew a blank and said, “I don’t know.” That went over badly, but it was right at the start of my career when I had little to no experience. Since then I’ve realized that my genuine answer is “Neither, I’d rather be respected.” You don’t want to be feared because fear is no way to motivate a team. You may got the job done but at what cost? Similarly, if you’re everyone’***est friend you’ll find it difficult to make tough decisions or hit deadlines. But when you’re respected, you don’t have to be a complete bastard or a lame duck to get the job done.

21. Are you willing to put the interests of X Company ahead of your own?
Again, another nasty question. If you say yes, you’re a corporate whore who doesn’t care about family. If you say no, you’re disloyal to the company. I’m afraid that you’ll probably have to say yes to this one though, because you’re trying to be the perfect employee at this point, and perfect employees don’t cut out early for Jimmy’***a***all game.

it is situational. if you… ; if you …. Ethics and professionalism



22. So, explain why I should hire you.
As I’m sure you know, “because I’m great” or “I really need a job” are not good answers here. This is a time to give the employer a laundry list of your greatest talents that just so happen to match the job description. It’s also good to avoid taking potshots at other potential candidates here. Focus on yourself and your talents, not other people’s flaws.

23. Finally, do you have any questions to ask me?
I’ll finish the way I started, with one of the most common questions asked in interviews. This directly relates to the research you’ve done on the company and also gives you a chance to show how eager and prepared you are. You’ll probably want to ask about benefits if they haven’t been covered already. A good generic one is “how soon could I start, if I were offered the job of course.” You may also ask what you’d be working on. Specifically, in the role you’re applying for and how that affects the rest of the company. Always have questions ready, greeting this one with a blank stare is a rotten way to finish your interview. Good luck and happy job hunting.

ponder for a moment, and then ask your interviewer “what aspect of your job do you find most challenging”.

I would ask the interviewer, “Why do you like to work here?”

24. Where do you want to be in 5 to years?

They dont want to hear in the same job you are interviewing for. Ultimately, the HR people are searching for someone who can handle the job now, and has the potential to grow into a high level management job in the future. Do you have those goals too?

24. Would you rather work for a big company or a small one?

Favorite answer: I’d treat any company like it was my own regardless. Total ownership of the situation can get you a long way.

General , the worst answer was “I don’t know.” I’ve since learned that “it depends,” with a couple of examples, is perfectly appropriate.
