7、239words）人們最初是如何發(fā)明單詞的不得而知，換句話說，語言的起源是個秘密。所有我們所知道的只是，人，不同于動物，不知怎么發(fā)明了某些聲音來表達(dá)思想、情感、行為和物質(zhì)，以便相互交流；后來統(tǒng)一了某些被稱為字母的符號，這些字母可以連起來代表那些聲音，可以寫下來。我們把那些聲音叫做單詞，不管他們是口語還是書面語。文字的力量在于其聯(lián)系性-它們把這些聯(lián)系性帶到我們的頭腦中。通過經(jīng)歷，單詞對我們充滿了意義。我們活得越久，某些單詞就越能使我們回憶起過去的喜怒哀樂；我們越是閱讀和學(xué)習(xí)，有意義的單詞數(shù)量就越增加。偉大的作家是那些不僅具有偉大思想而且能用詞匯來表達(dá)這些思想的人，他們的思想強(qiáng)烈地震撼著我們的心靈

8、和情感。單詞的這種美妙和寓意用法就是我們所謂的文學(xué)性?？傊?，真正的詩人是文字的掌握著。他可以用音樂般的詞匯來表達(dá)自己的意思，這些詞匯憑借其所用環(huán)境和聯(lián)系性能讓人感動得流淚。因此,我們應(yīng)該學(xué)會仔細(xì)選擇所用詞匯并準(zhǔn)確使用，否則會使我們說的話可笑又粗俗。6.

16、的腦海中：我給人留下了什么印象？他們喜歡我嗎？我讓人覺得很傻嗎？我的穿著是否不吸引人？顯而易見，這種不舒適的感覺必然給人們帶來了不利的影響。一個人的自我意識反映在他或她的行為上，而一個人的行為會影響他人的反應(yīng)。一般而言，人們認(rèn)識自己的方式對他們的生活的方方面面有深遠(yuǎn)的影響。羞怯的人非常自卑，他們可能很被動，容易受他人的影響。他們需要得到他人的再次確認(rèn)：他們所做的是正確的事情羞怯的人對批評很敏感，他們認(rèn)為批評使得他們更低人一等。他們也發(fā)現(xiàn)自己很難因為受到類似的表揚而高興，如：你剛才所說的使我感覺很好。我知道那不是真的。很明顯，盡管具有自知之明是件好事，但過度自謙則是有害的。羞怯能根除嗎？或至少能

17、減少些嗎？幸運的是，許多人能通過堅決而有耐心地建立自信來克服羞怯。既然羞怯與自卑天生相伴，那么人們能看見他們的優(yōu)缺點是很重要的。每一個人都是獨一無二的，都有其價值所在。我們對我們自己個人的方式感興趣。我們了解自己越多，我們就越容易充分發(fā)揮自己的潛能。不要讓羞怯妨礙我們實現(xiàn)富裕而有成效的人生。11.
