language gives us a great degree of mastery over our lives and our destinies.It is important to use the language in the best way possible in order to dramatically improve our quality of life.,2 Even the smallest of words can have the deepest effect on our subconscious mind,which is like a child,and it doesnt really understand the difference between what really happens and what you imagine.(1)It is eager to please and willing to carry out any commands that you give it-whether you do this knowingly or not is entirely up to you.(1)carry out commands 执行命令(2)be up to sb.取决于某人例如：Its up to you whether we go there or not.,Try3 It is a small word yet it has an amazing impact upon us.If someone says,Ill try to do that you know that they are not going to be putting their whole heart into it,and may not even do it at all.(2)How often do you use the word try when talking about the things that matter to you?Do you say Ill try to be more confident or Ill try to do that or Ill try to call?,matter v.be important例如：As long as staff are smart,it does not matter how long their hair is.员工只要聪明，头发留多长没什么关系。It matters a lot whether you come to my birthday party or not.,4 Think about something that you would like to achieve,and say it to yourself in two different ways.Firstly say,Ill try to and notice how you feel.Next say,I will do and see how you feel.5(3)The latter makes you feel better than the first one,doesnt it?It gives you a sense of determination,a feeling that it will be done.Listen to the people around you and when they say they will try notice if it gets done or not.Eliminate the word try from your dictionary and see how your life improves.（承上句）,Cant6 This is another small word with a big impact.It disempowers us,makes us feel weak and helpless,and damages our self-esteem.(4)It limits our infinite abilities and stifles creativity.Rub it out from your internal dictionary and replace it with something that makes you feel great.(1)infinite的词根是finite，其它相关词：finitely,infinitely,finiteness/finity,infiniteness/infinity。(2)creativity的词根是create。注意区分两个名词：creation/creativity。,【单选题】3.选择括号内所给单词的正确形式填空：A small word like cant limits our _(finite)abilities and discourages _(create).A finite,creatingB finite,creationC infinite,creativityD infinite,creation【答案】C【解析】本题考查finite及create的派生词。第一个空格要填的词作abilities的定语，故选择形容词；第二个空格要填的词作discourage的宾语，根据句义cant这样的小词限制了我们无限的能力并压制了我们的创造性，故选C。【知识点】finite及create的派生词,7 Instead of saying you cant,why not say something like I choose（愿意）or I choose not to.Using words like this allows you to take back your power and to be in control of your life.8 Words may appear small and insignificant,yet they can have a deep and lasting effect on us.(5)Mastering your language gives you the power to live whatever life you desire.,give the power相当于empower，该句等于Mastering your language empowers you to live whatever life you desire.,What words do you use a lot that disempower you?Make a list of words you commonly use and then write next to them some alternatives you can use.（承上句）(6)Make these alternatives words that make you feel fabulous,not only about yourself,but about life and what you are doing!（承上句）(1)make在这里接名词作宾补，即make sb./sth.sth.，再如：We made him our monitor.(2)make you feel fabulous，make接do sth.作宾补。(3)not onlybut(also),
