The power of language is so strong that it shows how language can actually influence the way we think. To broaden language is to broaden the ability to think. We can see this in children whose thinking develops gradually hand in hand with the language. So how to use the power of language: turning words into shapes. Professors have found that our subconscious (潜意识的) mind explains what it hears. The words that come out of our mouths, create the reality—for better or worse. Unfortunately, it’s often worse as we destroy our hope of success simply by using negative language that influences our opinions and kills our confidence. What you think directly influences how you feel and how you behave. So if you think you’re a loser, you’ll feel like a loser, Then, you’ll act like a loser, which strengthens your belief that you must be a loser. Creating a more positive outlook (看法) can lead to better outcomes. That’s not to say positive thoughts have magical powers. But positive thoughts lead to productive behavior, which increases your chances of a successful outcome. To build self-confidence, you have to change the way you speak. Remember them: Try to use positive language. Take actions quickly. Have your opinions. And don’t often say sorry to other people unless you are wrong. Words have magical powers. They can either bring the greatest happiness or the deepest despair (绝望).26. Why is language important to children according to Paragraph 1?A. Because it can develop children’s thinking ability,B.

The road was completed in September, 1983, running over 500 kilometers, from a city called Dushanzi to Kuqa. The highway is surrounded (环绕) by high mountains and wide grasslands. If you drive on this road, you will see amazing snow-covered mountaintops and green fields. The road takes you through lots of canyons (峡谷) and rivers, and you can see wonderful views at every turn. One of the best parts of the Duku Highway is the Tianshan Grand Canyon. This is a really big canyon with red and yellow cliffs (悬崖). It is the perfect place to take pictures. You can also go hiking there, and enjoy the fresh air and peaceful surroundings. Another place you must visit on the Duku Highway is the colorful Danxia Landform (丹霞地貌). It is an area where the rocks and cliffs have been changing over time. The rocks are bright red, orange, and yellow, and they look like a rainbow. That’s why it is called “colorful Danxia”. The Duku Highway is really a great place for people who love nature. However, when you enjoy the view, do remember those soldiers who built the road for 10 years, and 168 of them lost their lives for it. Therefore, this road is also known as the “Road of Heroes”.46.
