Heavy snow and low temperatures caused further damage across northern Europe on Monday — stranding (滞留的) travelers, snarling (混乱的) traffic and shutting schools.
More than 1,000 flights at Germany's main airports in Frankfurt, Munich and Berlin were canceled and many more delayed after up to 40 cm of fresh snow covering the country. Some 500 passengers slept at Frankfurt airport. Airlines advised passengers to take trains if possible.
In the United Kingdom, British Airways said the severe weather continued to cause great damage to operations and further travel. Only one of two runways at London Heathrow, the world's busiest international airport, was operating after the snowstorm. Other UK airports were open, but many flights were canceled, and many passengers spent a second night at an airport terminal (终点站).
Northern France was also covered by heavy snow. Air travel was reduced at Paris' two main airports, with Orly airport shutting down.
In Poland, hard hit by the cold weather, six people froze to death on Sunday night, raising the death toll to 114 in the last month. Heavy snow stopped Warsaw traffic again on Monday. Warsaw airport was open but was receiving far fewer passengers than usual because of flight cancellations in western Europe.

How to cope with yesmen
Have you ever had someone in your organization who was always agreeable A type of person who always agrees with everyone else. 1
We have most likely all met a yesman at one time or another. Yesmen are eager to please, but find it very difficult to voice their opinion. So what can you do as a leader to cope with (对付) them
Talk to them. The first step is an honest and objective conversation about their behavior. 2 Try to get them to see how they respond in these situations so they can start to see themselves objectively (客观地) as well.
3 Start with a recent time when they agreed with a decision, and ask for their opinion. Keep asking “why?” or “how come?” Acknowledge their views and let them know that the rest of the team is waiting to hear what they say.
Find out why they always agree. It may be they are just very agreeable people. 4 Identify the causes and work with them to reduce the external (外部的) barriers to having their voice heard.
Tell them they need to disagree, constructively, when they have the next opportunity. When that time comes about, don't embarrass them by putting them on the spot. Instead, ask them what they think, avoid yes-no questions, and use “why” and “how come” questions to get their thoughts out there for the benefit of the team. Thank them for their ideas. 5
A. Ask what their opinions are.
B. They should provide value to the organization.
C. Or they feel like they will be saying something stupid.
D. Even if all the ideas presented conflict with each other!
E. Sometimes the persons do not realize that they agree with everything.
F. Yesmen are a challenge in any organization that values individual contributions.
G. This will build their confidence and allow them to continue doing what you have started in the future.
