Body language is the quiet, secret and most powerful language of all! It speaks 36 than words. According to specialists, our bodies send out more 37 than we realize. In fact, non-verbal communication(非言语交际) takes up about 50% of what we really 38 , And body language is particularly 39 when we attempt to communicate across cultures（文化）. Indeed, what is called body language is so 40 a part of us that it's actually often unnoticed. And misunderstandings occur as a result of it. 41 , different societies treat the 42 between people differently. Northern Europeans usually do not like having 43 contact(接触)even with friends, certainly not with 44 . People from Latin American countries， 45 , touch each other quite a lot. Therefore, it's possible that in 46 ， it may look like a Latino is 47 a Norwegian all over the room. The Latino, trying to express friendship, will keep moving 48 . The Norwegian, very probably seeing this as pushiness, will keep 49 - which the Latino will in return regard as 50 _.
Clearly, a great deal is going on when people 51 . And only a part of it is in the words themselves. And when parties are from 52 cultures, there's a strong possibility of 53 . But whatever the situation, the best 54 is to obey the Golden Rule: treat others as you would like to be 55 _.

One effective way of destroying happiness is to look at something and focus on even the smallest fault. It's like looking at the tiled (铺瓦的) ceiling and concentrating on the space where one tile is
Once I heard a bald man said, "whenever I enter a room I see is hair. " Once you've
what your missing tile is, explore whether acquiring it will
make you happy. Then do one of the three things: get it, replace it with a different
, or forget about it and
the tiles in your life that are not missing.
We all know people who have a relatively life, yet are essentially unhappy while people who have suffered a great deal but
remain happy.
The first is gratitude. All happy people are
Ungrateful people cannot be happy. We tend to think that being unhappy leads people to
, but it's truer to say that complaining leads to people becoming unhappy.
The second secret is that happiness is a byproduct (副产品) of something else. The most obvious
are those pursuit (追求) that give our lives purpose—anything
studying insects to playing baseball. The more passions we have, the more happiness we are
to experience.
Finally, the belief that something permanent goes beyond us and that our has some larger meaning can help us to feel happier. We

I believe that everyone has a dream. A dream can be great or petty,or ordinary, good or bad. In my opinion, the real problem is not whether you have a dream, but whether you have enough
to admit that you have a dream.
Of course there are so many people who can't be . The fact is that the No. 1 winner is just one and others are losers. The fact is that everyone
the position but only one can get it.
, we don't have enough resources which can be given to
. So, how can we do? Maybe if we hide the dreams, life can be
. Maybe we had better not
the competition,
it's so easy to fail and so hard to be a
. Maybe we should give up the dreams because it's really
to bear all the jeerers (嘲笑者) and blamers. In a word, we are often afraid of
.
But a man won'this dream because of the fear of failure. Benjamin Franklin, we all remember him as Doctor Franklin, philosopher, patriot, scientist, philanthropist and statesman. But the most valuable things we should
is that how he peddle (叫卖) ballads (歌谣) in Boston, and how he walked the streets of Philadelphia, homeless and unknown, with three penny rolls for his breakfast. But he also had dinner at the tables of princesses, and
his friends in a palace. This poor Boston boy, with hardly a day's schooling, became master of six languages and
gave up his dream for studying. No matter
a prospect (前途) he had, he didn't fear it and still
his dream.
Every failure can make us gain new and make us strange! Only when we beat the fear, can we really make our dreams
! As we all know, what we fear is fear itself.
