"Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me."
You probably heard those lines in grammar school, but do you really agree that harsh (严厉的) or negative words do not harm us? Words have power. Surely we all have had our feelings hurt by something someone said.
We may not say words to hurt others, but the way we interpret (解释) them and how we say them may cause great harm. Here’s an example:
An ancient king dreamed all his teeth had fallen out. He sent for a wise man to explain his dream to him: the dream means that all your relatives will die and you will be left alone!
The king was very angry and threw the interpreter into prison. He then sent for another interpreter who said, "Congratulations! King! You will live many more years. In fact, you will survive all your relatives. Long Live the King!"
Both interpreters gave the same interpretation, but there was a huge difference in the way they said it.
Our speech must be understood by those who hear our words, but the way we say things and the intention behind them have as much power as the words themselves. Words can cause anger or appreciation. Which would you rather receive?
People who say harsh and negative things may not mean to harm, but have you ever known anyone who is a naysayer? They often look at the dark sides of things. They always see the glass as half empty rather than half full. How do you feel when you are around this type of person? Remember words have power. Use them wisely.

We went back inside to look for the glass floor that provided a direct view 40 . As soon as both of us 41 , we stopped before walking onto it. We found that our legs began to 42 . I stopped for a minute 你 who have stood on it before.”I began to 46 that step onto the glass floor. I didn’t look down — 47 not for a few minutes.
I walked on the 48 and looked around and thought about how 49 the experience was. I even found myself jumping up and down. There was no 50 , and it was certainly an illusion.
I considered how many things in our lives we 51 and exactly how many of them are actually illusions. I thought about all the things we 52 ourselves from doing because we have 53 ourselves into thinking there’s risk. I thought about all the things that I still have yet to do that appeared 54 .

“My father’s sick, ”she said to no one in 16 . 1 could see the anxiety and fear in her eyes. With a sudden change of attitude and interest, I asked, “What’s wrong with him?”
With her eyes wet and her voice tight fighting against the tears, she 17, “Heart trouble.” Her eyes 18 as she continued. “I’ve already lost my mum, so I don’t think I can 19 losing him.”

I saw how hard it was, 22 still is, for her. I wouldn’t like anyone to go 23 that.
Suddenly I realized Janie wasn’t only a bus driver. That was just her job. She had a 24 world of family and concerns too. I had never thought of her as anything but a driver.
I suddenly felt very25. I realized I had only thought of people as 26 as what their purposes were in my life. I paid no attention to Janie because she was a bus driver. I had judged her by her job and just considered her 27.

I 40 their situation to my seven-year-old twins, Brad and Martin, and 41 the boys to donate some of their less favorite toys. My little daughter, Meghan, 42 quietly when the boys piled up the old toys. After a while, Meghan walked up 43 Lucy, her much-loved doll, 44 tightly to her chest. She put her round little 45 into Lucy’s, giving her a final kiss, and then laid her 46 on top of the others. “Oh, honey,” I said，“you don’t have to give Lucy. You love her so much. ”
Meghan nodded, trying to 47 her tears. “Lucy makes me happy, Mummy. Maybe she’ll make that little girl happy, too. ”
The boys watched in surprise 48 their baby sister placed Lucy in the 49 . While I stared at Meghan, reflecting upon my donation, they went, without a word, to their room and both 50 with their valued items.

A great many people are disappointed because of unrealistic expectations.
Walking up to a department store’s cloth counter, a(n) 26 young woman said,“I want to buy this material for a new dress. How much does it cost?”
“Only one 27 per yard,” replied the smirking (自鸣得意的) male clerk.
Not to be 28 back by the funny words, the woman said,” That’s fine! I’ll take ten yards.”
With 29 written all over his face, the clerk 30 measured out and wrapped the cloth, then held it out teasingly(戏弄地 ), 31 forward to receive his “ 32 ”.
The woman got the package quickly from the clerk and 33 to a little old man standing beside her. “Grandpa will pay the bill instead of me,” she 34 .
He was no 35 disappointed. But in the course of living, many people are 36 when others do not 37 their expectations. In order to be happy, some expectations must be 38 .These three particular 39 and unhealthy expectations are some of the main causes:
1．Expect too much 40 .When others say,“Thank you,” or in any way to show their gratitude, be 41 . It is a gift!
2．Expect others to make you happy. They simply cannot do that. Make yourself happy and 42 your joy with others.
3． Expect not to be 43 . At times, people will simply not come through for you in the way you need. 44 them and move on.
Get rid of these three unrealistic expectations and you can begin to expect more 45 right away!
