Words have the power to cheer us up or let us down. It doesnt matter if the words come from someone else or ourselves the positive and negative (正面和负面) influences are just as lasting.We all talk to ourselves sometimes. Were usually too shy to admit(承认) it, though. In fact, we really shouldnt be because more and more scientists believe talking to ourselves out loud is a healthy habit.This “self-talk” helps us make ourselves active, remember things, solve problems, and calm ourselves down. It is said that as much as 77% of self-talk is likely to be negative. So in order to stay positive, we should only speak words of encouragement to ourselves._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 influence they will have. But we should realize that our words cause certain influence in others. For example, when returning an item to a store, we might use warm, friendly language during the exchange. And the salesperson will probably answer in a similar manner. Otherwise you may get into trouble.Words have power because of their lasting influences. Many of us feel sorry for 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 doesnt pass this test, then its better left unsaid.Words have power: both positive and negative. Those around us receive encouragement when we speak positively. We can offer hope, build self-confidence and encourage others to do their best. Negative words destroy all those things. Will we use our words to hurt or to cure? The choice is ours.36 . There is no need for us to feel shy when we talk to ourselves because _.Aalmost everybody has the habit of talking to themselvesBtalking to ourselves always gives us courageCwe may gain quite a few advantages of talking to ourselvesDit does no harm to have “self-talk” when we are alone37 . The underlined part in the third paragraph means that we should also _ in time.Aremind ourselvesBpraise ourselvesCmake ourselves relaxedDgive ourselves fun38 . The writer would probably hold the view that _.Ait is better to think twice before talking to othersBnegative words may encourage us to make more progressCpeople prefer to remember friendly wordsDencouraging words are sure to lead to kind offers39 .
