【题目】 Words have great power. Death and life are in the power of the tongue. Many of us have been offended by words and know how badly words hurt. 1. Trust me if you are not careful in this area, your emotions will soon be controlled by the words of the people around you.

2.

If someone tells you “You are a fool.”, don’t believe it in your mind. People who hurt you can never really harm you unless you allow yourself to be defined by these words. You are a child of God. You are very valuable in the sight of God, so never allow yourself to feel inferior just by the words of other people.

● Turn those words into positive thoughts within you.

If there is something wrong with your actions, and others are trying to correct you, it can sometimes hurt your feelings if their words are hurtful. 3. Think like this in your mind, “Yes, I’m wrong, but I’ll find out ways to improve. Now I have hope because I know I can change.”

● Respond softly.

If someone speaks in a hurtful way, take a deep breath first and try to speak softly and kindly in response. 4. On the contrary, an angry answer is like a sword, which will bring harm instead of healing.

● Be silent.

5. It’s none of your business. We need not respond to every personal comment from people. It’s not your problem that they keep on hurting you on purpose. So simply leave it.

A. A soft answer turns away anger

B. Don’t worry about what others say

C. It is wise to correct others’ mistake by soft words

D. Never let negative words of others define who you are

E. In that case change those words into positive thoughts

【题目】Every city, in fact, can be felt by its warmth-not in terms of its natural climate but its human touch.

About twenty years ago, I arrived in Australia. Searching for a place in a map in the street, I was approached by an elderly man who asked “How are you? Are you lost? How can I help you?”, which really impressed and warmed me. Another time, as I was pushing my bike on the sidewalk one night, a young lady shouted to me: “Carry me please” and then jumped onto my bicycle. While we had a little chat, she got where she wanted and hopped off my bike with “Thanks, bye!” At that moment, I had a sense as much of pleasant surprise as of “being trusted”.

Still in Australia, two of my friends decided to hitch(搭便车)their way to Sydney in order to save money. A young driver stopped, and luckily he was also going to Sydney, so he let them in and even allowed them to drive while he went to sleep on the back seat. About eight hours later, they arrived and he woke up. Saying thanks to each other, they went their separate ways.

In my opinion, no matter how developed and advanced it is, if in general a place presents itself with a cold and indifferent(冷漠的)face to people, especially to strangers, even keeping them highly alert(警惕的)not to be cheated all the time, can perhaps hardly be classified as a land of civilization(文明). In a sense, the attitude towards strangers that the people have in the city mirrors its warmth.

1What do the words “human touch” in Paragraph 1 refer to?

A. A certain temperature. B. Interpersonal communication.

C. Advanced ideas. D. Unique culture.

2What do the native people have in common?

A. Trustful and warm. B. Watchful and alert.

C. Cold and indifferent. D. Caring and guardless.

3Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?

A. My Experience Abroad B. The Warmth of a City

C. A Land of Civilization D. Valuable Memories

4By what is a city’s civilization decided?

A. Its people’s self-guard sense.

B. Its fast development.

C. Its advanced equipment.

D. Its people’s attitude towards strangers.

【题目】You often find somebody who works around you complaining all the time, don’t you? 1. About 70% of Americans say being around nonstop complainers sometimes has a bad influence on them. Luckily, here are 4 tips to help form positive patterns.

Self-awareness

When a negative thought pops into your mind, immediately correct it. Instead of telling yourself “That’s a nice shirt, but I can’t afford it,” change the message to “That will look great with my black pants when I can afford it.”2.

Of course, everyone complains sometimes. But the less frequently you complain, the better you will feel.

Distance yourself

3. Excuse yourself and go somewhere quiet, somewhere outdoors in the fresh air. Think of something pleasant before returning. You have to take this seriously because negative people can and will pull you into the quicksand (难以摆脱的困境).

Don’t try to change complainers

If you find yourself trapped in a group of complainers in a meeting or at a social event, simply choose silence. Let their words bounce off you while you think of something else. Attempting to stop the complaining can make you a target.4. If someone says, “I hate Mondays; weekends are too short,” try to think, “I’m glad I rested over the weekend, so I’m ready to make some improvement on that big project.”

5

When someone is shouting at you angrily, throw the responsibility back at them by asking, “So what do you intend to do about it?” In most cases, complainers don’t really want a solution. They just want to speak them out. If you make them aware that they themselves have to find the solutions, they will leave you alone and find someone else to complain to. If so, you will be happy.

A. Find solutions

B. Change the responsibility

C. You have got a lot of company

D. By doing this, it will lead to positive behavior

E. But you can redirect the discussion in your own mind

F. Whenever possible, escape from negative conversations

G. You will never know what they are going to talk about
