Words have the power to build us up or tear us down. It doesnt matter if the wo

25、rds come from someone 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. But we really shouldnt be, because more and more experts believe talking to ourselves out loud is a healthy habit.This “

26、self-talk” helps us motivate ourselves, remember things, solves problems, and calm ourselves down. Beware, 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

27、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!”Words possess power because of their lasting effects. Many of us regret something we once said. And we remember unkind words said to us! Before speaking, we should alwa

28、ys 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 possess power: both positive and negative. Those around us receive encouragement when we speak positively. We can offer hope, build self-esteem(自尊) and motive oth

29、ers to do their best. Negative words destroy all those things. Will we use our words to hurt or to heal? The choice is ours.56The author argues in the first paragraph that _.Awords will never hurt us at allBwords have lasting effects on usCpositive effects last longer than negative effectsDnegative

30、words last longer than positive effects57Why should we not feel embarrassed when talking to ourselves?AAlmost everybody has the habit of talking to oneself.BIt does harm to have “self-talk” when we are alone.CTalking to ourselves helps us to solve all the problems.DTalking to ourselves is believed t

31、o be good for our health.58The underlined phrase “give ourselves a pat on the back” in Paragraph 3 means _.Ablame ourselves

42、its car-plane, the Transition, to customers by the end of 2011.“Its the nextwowvehicle，”said Terrafugia vice president Richard Gersh.“Anybody can buy a Ferrari, but as we say, Ferraris dont fly.”The car plane has wings that unfold for flyinga process the company says takes one minuteand fold back up

43、 for driving. A runway is still required to take off and land.The Transition is being marketed more as a plane that drives than a car that flies, although it is both. The company has been working with FAA to meet aircraft regulations, and with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to me

44、et vehicle safety regulations.The company is aiming to sell the Transition to private pilots as a more convenient and cheaper way to fly. They say it saves you the trouble from trying to find another mode of transportation to get to and from airports: You drive the car to the airport and then youre

45、good to go. When you land, you fold up the wings and hit the road. There are no expensive parking fees because you dont have to store it at an airportyou park it in the garage at home.The car-plane is designed to fly primarily under 10,000 feet. It has a maximum takeoff weight of 1,430 pounds, inclu

46、ding fuel and passengers. Terrafugia says the Transition reduces the potential for an accident by allowing pilots to drive under bad weather instead of flying into marginal(臨界)conditions.The Transitions price tag: $194,000, But there may be additional charges for options like a radio, transponder or

47、 GPS. Another option is a full-plane parachute.“If you get into a very awful situation, it is the necessary safety option,” Gersh said.So far, the company has more than 70 orders with deposits.“Were working very closely with them, but there are still some remaining steps,” Brown said.63.We can learn

48、 from the first paragraph that .A.car-planes will be popular in 2011B. people might drive a car-plane in 2011 C. both Transition and Ferrari can take off and landD.
