Answer:

Dubai: In a bid to better understand each other, members of the Chinese business community faced off with their Emirati counterparts at the Shaikh Mohammad Centre for Cultural Understanding (SMCCU) in Bastakiya on Wednesday.

Held for the first time under the theme Business Culture Insight: Emirati Vs Chinese, the two groups discussed their cultural similarities and differences to bridge the gap between two groups and pave the way for better business relationships in the future.

“The good thing about learning different cultures is we find that we have more commonalities between us than differences. For example, we have the same food, but different names,” Nasif Kayed, SMCCU general manager, said.

Various traditional Emirati practices and terms were discussed beginning with how Bedouin hosts would accommodate a guest, how to conduct a meeting and socialise, and how to build long-term professional relationships.Shihab Mohammad Shihab Gargash, director of Commercial Bank of Dubai, dismissed misconceptions about “wasta” which translates to using connections to get something done. He said that while wasta has its own good uses, many still use it in a bad manner.

The group also discussed the practice of saying “Inshallah” (If Allah permits) in conversations in its proper context, emphasising on not using the word loosely in conversations. Activities done in the Majlis (a place of sitting) where Emiratis socialise with their friends were discussed in detail.

For his part, Captain Song Wang, chairman of the Chinese Business Council, emphasised on what the Chinese consider important when doing business. “When Chinese do business, it’s important for us that we build trust with our partners first, and we honour our word to them.” Wu Qiunan, acting general manager of Petrochina International Middle East, was there to give his insights as well.Lucy Chuang of the Global Sino Consultancy that organised the event said it is important to conduct a cultural dialogue between the two groups to benefit the growing Chinese population in the UAE which at present stands at more than 200,000.

sergiy2304 [10]

These are three questions:

1. Teamwork can be frustrating because of all except:

satisfaction from group success
personal interaction.
the hassles of group work.
people who do not do their share.

Now, we are looking for something positive, because we are looking for a reason why team work is NOT frustrating. The correct answer is " satisfaction from group success ". A success of the group can make all the group members happy and can strengthen the relationship in the group. Think for example the happiness of the members of a soccer team after a goal - even the members who are not currently playing are happy.

2. teamwork can be motivating because of all except:

the satisfaction of group victory.
interaction.
relationship building.
self-reliance.

Here "self-reliance" is the correct answer, as there is little self-reliance in the group. Instead, you rely on the other team members and they rely on you - there is a mutual reliance in the group. This mutual reliance can also be a positive thing, but self-reliance is not a part of group work.

3.some people have a preference for individual work because of all except:

they welcome the opinions of others.
they prefer individual tasks.
they can rely on themselves.
they like to do their own work.

Here the correct answer is "they welcome the opinions of others" - this will be something that can be found in a group work, not in an individual work, since if you work alone, there is noone to provide you with their feedback! If they want to have access to the opinion of others and to the feedback of others, they should consider group work instead!

faltersainse [42]

Answer:

The id

Explanation:

Id for Freud is the component of the personality composed of unconscious psychic energy that works to satisfy basic impulses, needs and desires. The id operates based on the pleasure principle, which requires the immediate satisfaction of needs. This according to his psychoanalytic theory of personality.

Also, the id is the only part of the personality that is present at birth. Freud also suggested that this primitive component of personality existed completely within the unconscious.

The id acts as the driving force behind the personality. It not only strives to fulfill our most basic impulses, many of which are directly linked to survival, but it also provides all the energy necessary to drive personality.

konstantin123 [22]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Hedonists such as Epicurus and Mill have claimed that pleasure is the only thing worth pursuing its own sake. If some people would choose not to plug into the experience machine, does this show that hedonism is false?

No, what it means is that under the belief system and consideration of that individual, hedonism is not the way to receive pleasure and there would other activities or satisfactions that would report pleasure in doing them. Diversity in people's character and beliefs makes life more rich and interesting in that the search for pleasure has different ways, according to the satisfactoriness, values, and goals of each individual.

Although Hedonists such as Epicurus and Mill have claimed that pleasure is the only thing worth pursuing its own sake, other thinkers and philosophers considered that pleasure is the final result of getting accomplished that what made us thrive under different -and sometimes- difficult circumstances.

So pleasure, fr the sake of the pleasure it is not the only way to approach this.
