A popular saying goes， “Sticks and stones may break my bones， but words will never hurt me.” However， that's not really true. Words have the power to build us up or tear us down. It doesn't matter if the words come from someone else or ourselves—the positive and negative effects are just as lasting.

We all talk to ourselves sometimes. We're usually too embarrassed to admit it， though. In fact， we really shouldn't be because more and more experts believe talking to ourselves out loud is a healthy habit.

This “self??talk” helps us motivate ourselves， remember things， solve problems， and calm ourselves down. Be aware， though， that as much as 77% of self??talk tends to be negative. So in order to stay positive， we should only speak words of encouragement to ourselves. We should also be quick to give ourselves a pat on the back. The next time you finish a project， do well in a test， or finally clean your room， join me in saying “Good job！”

Often， words come out of our mouths without us thinking about the effect they will have. But we should be aware that our words cause certain responses in others. For example， when returning an item to a store， we might use warm， friendly language during the exchange. And the clerk will probably respond in a similar manner. Or harsh (刻薄的) and critical language will most likely cause the clerk to be defensive.

Words possess power because of their lasting effect. Many of us regret something we once said. And we remember unkind words said to us！ Before speaking， we should always ask ourselves： Is it true？ Is it loving？ Is it needed？ If what we want to say doesn't pass this test， then it's better left unsaid.

Words possess power： both positive and negative. Those around us receive encouragement when we speak positively. We can offer hope， build self??esteem(自尊) and motivate others to do their best. Negative words destroy all those things. Will we use our words to hurt or to heal？ The choice is ours.

72.The main idea of the first paragraph is that　　　　.

A.words have a lasting effect on us

B.inspiring words give us confidence

C.negative words may let us down

D.not sticks and stones but words will hurt us

73.There is no sense for us to feel embarrassed when we talk to ourselves because　　　　.

A.almost everybody has the habit of talking to themselves

B.talking to ourselves always gives us courage

C.we can benefit from talking to ourselves

D.it does no harm to have “self??talk” when we are alone.

74.The underlined part in the third paragraph means that we should also timely　　　　.

A.remind ourselves B.praise ourselves

C.make ourselves relaxed D.give ourselves amusement

75.The author would probably hold the view that　　　　.

A.encouraging words are sure to lead to kind offers

B.negative words may motivate us to make more progress

C.people tend to remember friendly words

D.it is better to think twice before talking to others

Interview with God

I dreamed I had an interview with God．“So you would like to interview me?”God asked．“If you have the time,”I said．“My time is eternity(永恒的)．”God smiled,“What questions do you have in mind for me?”“What surprises you most about humankind?”God answered,“That they get bored with childhood, they rush to grow up, and then long to be children again．That they lose their health to make money…and then lose their money to restore their health．That by thinking anxiously about the future, they forget the present, such that they live in neither the present nor the future．That they live as if they will never die, and die as though they had never lived．”God’s hand took mine and we were silent for a while．And then I asked,“As a parent, what are some of life’s lessons you want your children to learn?”“To learn they cannot make anyone love them．All they can do is to let themselves be loved．To learn that it is not good to compare themselves to others．To learn to forgive by practicing forgiveness．To learn that it only takes a few seconds to open profound wounds in those they love, and it can take many years to heal them．To learn that a rich person is not one who has the most, but is one who needs the least．To learn that there are people who love them dearly, but simply have not yet learned how to express or show their feelings．To learn that two people can look at the same thing and see it differently．To learn that it is not enough that they forgive one another, but they must also forgive themselves．”“Thank you for your time,”I said humbly．“Is there anything else you would like your children to know?”God smiled and said;“Just know that I am here always．”
