good influence on boys in school. boys do best with as few girls as possible in english lessons at primary and secondary school, steven proud from bristol university has found. but when it comes to maths and science, both boys and girls at primary school achieve up to a tenth of a grade more when there is a high proportion of girls in the class, proud found.proud tracked boys and girls test results at the ages of 7, 11, 14 and 16 in 16000 schools in england between 2002 and 2004 for his ph. d. he analysed the test scores to see whether the proportion of girls in a year group made a difference to the results of both genders in math，science and english. proud looked at the schools that were in their high or low proportion of girls. boys consistently perform up to a tenth of a grade worse when they study english with high numbers of girls as opposed to few or no girls，proud found. the more girls there are in an english class，the worse boys perform. this is particularly the case in primary schools，he discovered. proud will argue that his results show boys should be taught english in single-sex classes.girls，who outperform boys in english at every stage at school, are unaffected by the number of boys in their english classes. girls also do better when there are some boys who receive free school meals in their class，proud found. he said, the results imply that boys would benefit at all ages from being taught english with as small a proportion of girls as possible, in maths and science，the results tend to imply that both boys and girls benefit from having more girls in the classroom a mix of the genders in both science and maths is the best choice.”proud said boys may do worse in english when there is a high proportion of girls in their class because they realize that the girls are better than them. it could also be that teachers use teaching styles more appropriate to girls when there are more girls than boys in the class. both genders perform better in maths and science at primary school when there are more girls in the class because boys tend to disrupt the class more，he said.professor alan smithers from the university of buckingham said girls started school with slightly better verbal skills，while boys started with a slightly greater ability for maths. “boys might be discouraged by how well girls are doing in english，”he said，“but that still does not explain why they would do better in maths and science with a higher proportion of girls in their class.”31. its widely believed that_. a, boys do worse in english when there are more girls in their class b. girls are always having a good influence on bays in school c. boys do best with “as few girls as possible in english lessons d, there is a higher proportion of girls in schools32. fraud is likely to believe that_ a. boys should be taught english in single-sex classes b. boys outperform girls in english at every stage c. some bays who receive .free school meals do better in english d. boys perform better in maths and science at primary school when there are mare girls33. in terms of the reason why boys english grades are up to a tenth worse when high numbers of girls are in the class，alan smithers explains that a. teachers teaching styles are more appropriate to girls b, boys tend to disrupt the class more c. bays started with a slightly greater aptitude for maths d. girls started school with slightly better verbal skillsa popular saying goes, “sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me.” however, thats not really true. words have the power to build us up or tear us down. it doesnt matter if the words come from someones else or ourselves-the positive and negative effects are just as lasting.we all talk to ourselves sometimes. were usually too embarrassed to admit it, though. in fact, we really shouldnt 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 clear 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 loving? is it needed? if what we want to say doesnt pass this test, then its better left unsaid.words possess power: both positive and negative. those around us receive encouragement when we speak positively. we can offer
