  Listening to music that not only has a soothing melody,but an uplifting message,can be great for developing positive self talk.Have you ever had a song “stuck in your head” for a few hours or days,the lyrics repeating themselves in your mind?’’ If those lyrics were positive and inspirational,that would be a good thing.It’s a much better mental soundtrack to have than a running stream of complaints,criticisms of self-limiting thoughts,or even songs that had more depressing or sad lyrics.

  Books on strength, personal power, enlightenment, or self help can be good resources to help you change your outlook and the things you say to yourself.Rather than bringing habitual self-defeating thoughts,you can find yourself thinking of new can-do concepts when times get tough.

  One of the most important ways you can get and keep positive energy in your life is with the company you keep.Do your friends uplift you,or bring you down? Are they critical,or complementary? Ideal friendships provide support when you’re down, fun when you’re up,wisdom when you’re lost,and positive regard.Good friends can inspire you to reach greater heights,and see your strengths even when you don’t always.Pay attention to how your friends make you feel,and if they’re less than supportive,start putting your energy and time toward people who are better suited to be your friend.

  In addition,positive affirmations(肯定)can certainly change your self talk from negative to positive.Now,why not begin working positive affirmations into your life in some creative ways?

阅读理解

  Have you heard of the saying, “If anything is worth doing, it is worth doing well”? The proverb is a piece of advice to make effort towards perfection in whichever job one does.It could be a small task like folding up your clothes, or a major ne like organizing a business meeting in your later life.

  Perfection is nothing but attention to details.If it is your job to dust the furniture at home, dust it so that not a single spot of dirt shows from any angle.If your task is to make the beds, make them so that not a single crease(皱痕)shows on the bed-covers.

  There are only two ways to do a job:either sloppily, or well.If you choose the latter path, you need to realize that any job that qualifies as “your” work deserves nothing less than your best.Perfection is an attitude that can be cultivated(培养)with just a little effort.It is a habit that does much good to your later life.Let us prove with an example:you may be asked to turn in an essay on, say, wildlife, for a school project.Instead of writing carelessly a few facts that you already know, you could make the project more effective by looking up reference books, encyclopedias(百科全书)or websites for additional information.You could then go over the finished essay for slips(疏漏)and errors, and provide pictures where necessary.If you make it a habit to put in extra effort in your school homework, will it not help you to handle more difficult projects at the college or university level?

  As Michelangelo, the famous 16th century sculptor and painter, once put it:Trifles(琐事)go to make perfection, and perfection is no trifle.

to form the habit of doing things ahead of time

[  ]

A.

It is necessary to provide pictures for your essay.

B.

Websites are the sources of information you want.

C.

Perfection is a habit that promises a good future.

D.

You should make much effort to develop perfection.
