Our words carry huge weight. They may influence people for years, and even for a lifetime.
They provide them with courage to go on or one more 21 to give up.
When I was fourteen, my family moved to another city. And the move made my ninth-grade year even harder. I remember 22 into the dining hall for the first time. The other kids had good friends with them, but I didn’t know anyone. I felt 23 and went to the nearest seat after getting some food. The kids beside me looked me up and down and then
24 . I could feel my face turning red at that moment. Then one of the kids broke the ice. “Man! You have one BIG nose!” I felt hurt and didn’t know 25 to say. I wanted to cry, but I managed a little smile—as if it hadn’t hurt me at all. But it had. From then on, I would often look myself in the mirror. I studied the big nose 26 . It seemed that I was just living for my nose. Luckily, I grew out of this influence finally. But it really took me twenty 27 .
There is another thing that is kept deep in my mind. I remember going through a terrible business failure. I lost everything. I called my dad for help and he told me much about how to 28 the failure. His words impressed(给...留下深刻印象) me deeply. It gave me 29 courage and confidence(信心) to go on with my business.
Over these years, I have always been very careful with my words and nice to everyone I met, 30 I believe our words may bring others a lifetime influence.

John is the kind of boy you love to hate. He is always in a good mood(心情) and always has something active to say.
If a friend was having a bad day, John was always telling the friend how to look on the active side of the situation. Seeing this really made me curious(好奇的), so one day I went up and asked him, “You can’t be an active person all the time. How do you do it?” He replied, “Each morning I wake up and say to myself, I choose to be in a good mood.” Soon, I left to start my own business. We lost touch, but I often thought about him when I made a choice about life.
Several years later, I heard that he had a serious accident, falling off a high tower. I saw him about six months after the accident. I asked him what had gone through his mind as the accident took place.
“The first thing that went through my mind was my daughter,” he replied. “Weren’t you scared?” I asked.
He continued, “The nurses were great. They kept telling me I was going to be fine. But seeing the expressions on the faces of the doctors and nurses, I got really scared. In their eyes, I was a dead man. I knew I needed to take action. I told them, ‘I am choosing to live. Operate on(给...动手术) me as if I am alive, not dead.’”
He lived, thanks to the skill of his doctors, but also because of his amazing attitude(态度).
I learned from him that every day we have the choice to live fully.

Just like any relationship, best friendships are up to trust, promise, respect and interests. When any of these elements(要素) is missing, the friendship will be hard to go on. If the trust is totally broken, you may not be able to forgive(原谅) him or her. Sometimes a friendship ends because either you or your friend gets tired of putting heart into it. This can happen when one of you finds a new friend or even a new hobby that takes up much time. Or, perhaps you find the relationship is always going in an unhealthy way and you want some distance( 距 离 ). Other times, you just change and want to leave each other. Sure, it seems sad at the time, but it’s very normal. Not all friendships are meant to last forever. So, what should you do if something like this happens to you? Read on for some friendly advice.
Whatever the reason you’re breaking up with your best friend, always remember that he or she was once very important to you. Take the time to sit down quietly and tell him/her what’s going on and why. Don’t send him or her an unpleasant e-mail or just start ignoring him or her. In fact, maybe he or she has known there’s a problem and would like to have a heart-to-heart conversation. If you’re not sure about wanting an end forever, you could suggest you two take a break from each other. If, after a while, you realize why you became the best friends in the beginning, you can try getting back to your former( 以前的) behaviors. Whatever you do, be honest about your feelings while having respect for his or hers. And if you both agree the BFF (Best Friend Forever) thing is over, make sure not to be enemies.

Smiling is not just a good way of communicating with others. It can also show which country you are from. The study found that countries like Canada, the USA and Australia like to smile when they started showing their feelings. This means they may smile more than other countries.
Because these countries are homes to people from many other places. So they have different cultural backgrounds and language barriers(障碍) which may cause some misunderstandings(误解 ) with others. But smiling shows someone is friendly. Smiles make people happy. It helps to push communication.
Japanese people try to smile as a way of showing respect and kindness to others. Or they smile to hide their unhappy feelings with someone. It is true that Japan is a country that pays more attention to politeness. And smiling is an important part of their politeness culture. If you travel to Japan, taxi drivers always show you friendly smile. If something unexpected happens to a Japanese, they may also smile to avoid being embarrassed.
Where do people smile least? The answer is China’s Hong Kong. What about your country?
(A)
In most of Asia, especially the so-called(所谓的) “rice bowl” cultures of China, Japan and Korea, food is usually eaten with chopsticks. Chopsticks were invented in China about 5,000 years ago, although the exact date isn’t known.
Chopsticks are two long, thin, usually tapered(圆锥形的), pieces of wood. Bamboo is the most common material, but they are also made of different types of wood, as well as plastic, animal bone, ivory, metal and jade(玉器).
Nowadays many people like to buy chopsticks as gifts. When they are given to a young couple who just get married, chopsticks are symbols of joy and good wishes for having a new baby soon; when they are given to a lover, it means “We’ll be together forever”. Chopsticks are often given to the people from other countries as gifts because they stand for(代表) the culture of our country.
