Self-images are our own mind’s pictures of ourselves. These images（意象）include the way we look, the way we act, the way we talk and the way we think. When we find that believing in ourselves is a bit hard, it is time we build positive（积极的）self-images and learn to have happy lives.

Interestingly, our self-images are often quite different from the images others hold about us. Unluckily, most of these images are more negative（消极的）than they should be. Thus changing the way we think about ourselves is the key to change our self-images and our whole world.

The best way to destroy a passive（被动的）self-image is to step back and decide to pay attention to our successes. That is, make a list if we need to, but write down all of the great things we do every day. Don’t allow doubts to happen on us.

It very well might be that we are experiencing negative self-images because we can’t move past the weakness that we see about ourselves. Well, make a change of it as our primary tasks. If we think we’re silly because we aren’t good at math, find someone to help us. If we think we’re weak because we can’t run a mile, get more practice. But remember, what we think doesn’t mean it’s true.

The best way to get rid of a negative self-image is to realize that our images are far from the goals, and to actively make ourselves believe that we have positive personalities. Changing the way we think and working on those we need to improve will go a long way to create new positive self-images. When we can pat ourselves on the back, we’ll know we’re well on our way.

65. When do we need to build positive self-images?

67. How can we destroy passive self-images?

Have you ever spent a night on a train? In the world of high speed railways and low-fare (价格低廉)airlines, traveling by night train sounds out of date. The main way of railway travel is long gone in most European countries and the United States. 60 . They are considered rather economical (节省的) ways of traveling from city to city as the fares are a lot lower than flights and traveling between cities takes many hours or even days.

The first extensive (广泛的) use of sleeping cars started in the 1830s in the US. A name worth mentioning here is George Pullman, an American industrialist. In the 1860s, Pullman successfully ran his sleeping car business by offering all kinds of good services. The food provided on the comfortable Pullman trains was as delicious as the best restaurants of that time. 61 .

Considering the time spent, business people may prefer to travel by plane, but modern sleeping cars provide an comfortable way of traveling. 62 . The other advantage is that sleeping cars take you directly to the big city stations, while most airports are usually located far away from the city centers. 63 .

A. The Pullman trains quickly became popular as a result of his creation

B. The planes are often late and uncomfortable

C. But in China and India, night trains are quite common

D. So if you are not in a rush, overnight trains are a great way to get around

E. One advantage of overnight trains is that you are getting a night’s rest while traveling
