There is an old proverb, 36 _ that the tongue has the power of life and death

Most of the time we 40 this concept in relation to how we treat others and that is good. 41__ here I want to talk about this concept in relation to ourselves. How does 42 we say affect us greatly?

Section A
Some personal characteristics play an important role in the development of one’s intelligence．But people fail to realize the importance of training these factors in young people．
The so-called “non-intelligence factors” include one’s feelings, will, motivation, interests and habits．After a 30-year follow up study of 8,000 males, American psychologists50that the main cause of disparities in intelligence is not intelligence51 , but non-intelligence factors including the desire to learn, will power and self-confidence．
52people all know that one should have definite objectives, a strong will and good learning habits, quite a number of teachers and parents don’t pay much attention to 53 these factors．
Some parents are greatly worried when their children fail to do well in their studies．They blame either genetic factors, malnutrition（营养不良） or laziness, but they never take54consideration these non-intelligence factors．At the same time, some teachers don’t inquire into these, as reasons55students do poorly．They simply give them more courses and exercises, or56 criticize or laugh at them．After all, these students lose self-confidence．Some of them just feel defeated and57themselves up as hopeless．Others may go astray（堕落）because they are sick of learning．An investigation of more than 1,000 middle school students in Shanghai showed that 46．5 percent of them were58of learning, because of examinations, 36．4 percent lacked persistence, initiative and consciousness and 10．3 percent were sick of learning．
It is clear that the lack of cultivation of non-intelligence factors has been a main 59
to intelligence development in teenagers．It even causes an imbalance between physiological and 60 development among a few students．
If we don’t start now to61the cultivation of non-intelligence factors, it will not only affect the development of the intelligence of teenagers, but also affect the quality of a whole generation．Some experts have put forward62about how to cultivate students’ non-intelligence factors．
First, parents and teachers should63understand teenage psychology．On this basis, they can help them to pursue the objectives of learning， 64their interests and toughening their willpower．

If I had known earlier that there was a reason why I was a low achiever, I may not have worked so hard in my late twenties and early thirties. I was writing. I was working for no other reason than to hear people 51 me.

I avoid dialing a telephone if I can, because I sometimes have to try three times to get the number 54 . I hear that recording "The 55 you have reached is not in service." more than any man on the earth.
In spite of my 56 I view dyslexia(朗读困难) as a gift, not something bad. Many dyslexics are good at right-brain, advanced thought, and that's what my kind of creating writing is. I' m starting with nothing and coming up with something that didn't 57 before. That' s my advantage.
I 58 my career to Ralph Salisbury, my writing 59 at the university of Oregon, who looked past my misspellings and gave me 60 and hope. I never looked 61 .
I am also very good at observing. This means nothing in school, but when I 62 books or scripts, I'm seeing everything in my 63 .
I write 64 . I go like the wind and can 65 up to 15 pages a day. Writing is not the 66 . I have no problem in downloading; it's inputting where things get jumbled(混乱).
The real 67 I have for the dyslexics is not that they have to 68 with jumbled input, but that they will give up before they finish school. Parents have to create victories 69 they can, whether it' s music, sports or arts. You want your dyslexic child to be able to say, "Yeah, reading is 70 . But I have other things I can do."

It’s December again. In addition to the excitement about 50 down to the holidays and parties. This month is also about long study hours for thousands of senior college students in China.
According to the Ministry of Education, the number of postgraduate 51 has risen again this year. The ministry has even 52 the enrollment dates to allow for the 53 applicants. However. I do not see the point of enrolling in postgraduate study 54 after college.
Postgraduate programs are 55 on specific fields and on advanced research and study. They also require 56 knowledge you can only gain from the workplace. If your goal is to gain more skills, you should try harder to find a job. Employers want 57 . not more qualifications. Otherwise, postgraduate study straight is a 58 of time and money.
Job applicants with a master’s degree often find that their competitors hold 59 qualifications.
Ten years ago, graduates with bachelor degrees had no problem finding employment, but authorities 60 the number of university places in 1999 and now where are millions of graduates without work.
It appears that postgraduate education will 61 this history of undergraduate education.
62 , the human resources staff faced with the choice between two applicants with masters degrees will usually choose the graduate from the more 63 undergraduate school. A bachelor’s degree from a key university is more helpful than a master’s degree sometimes.
