Americans in business have a language of their own. Some words and expressions deal with the special areas of their work. Some expressions are borrowed from different kinds of work such as the theatre and movie industry.
One such saying is “get your act together”.
When things go wrong in business, a boss may get angry. He may shout, “Stop making mistakes. Get your act together.” Or, if the boss is calmer, he may say, “Let’s get our act together.” Either way, the meaning is the same. Getting your act together is getting organized. In business, it usually means to develop a calm and orderly (有序的) plan of action.
It is difficult to tell exactly where the saying began. But it is probable that it was in the theatre or movie industry. Perhaps one of the actors was nervous and made a lot of mistakes. The director may have said, “Calm down, now. Get your act together.”
Another expression used by American business people is “cut to the chase”.
“Cut to the chase” means to stop spending so much time on unimportant details or information. Hurry and get to the good part.
Naturally, this saying was started by people who made movies. Hollywood movie producers believe that most Americans want to see action movies. Many of their movies show scenes in which the actors chase each other in cars, in airplanes or on foot.
“Cut” is the director’s word for stop. The director means to stop filming, leave out some material and get to the chase scene now.
So, if your boss tells you to cut to the chase, be sure to get to the main point of your work quickly.

In every country, there are thousands of people who want to help out. Many join organizations run (管理) by their governments, for example, the Peace Corps in the United States and Voluntary Service Overseas in Britain. Since the powerful (猛烈的) earthquake took place in Sichuan, more than 200 thousand volunteers across China have been helping there! They do all kinds of work or come up with ways to help improve life. Some offer their professional skills for free. Others have no qualifications (资历), but they love to work hard to help.
One of the most famous volunteers in the world was Mother Teresa. She could be the best volunteer because she gave her life to helping the poorest people of Calcutta. She helped the homeless, cared for the sick, gave out food, and became the mother of those without families.
Now more and more teenagers actively look for volunteering opportunities, too. They volunteer because they think it will be fun or they will learn something. They also like the idea of being helpful to others, even if it is just handing out books for the teacher. As they get older, these reasons are still the same, but there are other important reasons for volunteering such as learning on-the-job, getting work experience, and improving their social life.
All volunteers bring joy to the people they help in so many ways. They might read books to the blind, fix up broken homes, find ways to get water for villages. Could you be a volunteer? What kind of volunteer work could you do? There is someone in the world who needs you.
