Our body language tells the world a lot about us．But can it change the way we see ourselves? The answer is YES．
Two scientists，Amy Cuddy and Danna Carney，who know much about body language，did a famous research．According to the result of their research，body language can change the chemistry of our brains．Some high-power body language can make you become confident(自信的)．For example，you will feel confident when you hold your head high；you will feel confident when you walk with your shoulders back；you will feel confident too when you put your arms out wide as if you were winning a race．However，some low-power body language

can make you feel unconfident，such as sitting with your arms close to the body，sitting with your legs together or walking with your head down．
Why do all these happen? The scientists think the reason is that body language changes the amount(数量) of something special in our brains．It’s called hormone(荷尔蒙)．One kind of hormone can increase your confidence；another kind can increase your stress(压力)．But too much stress hormone is bad for learning．It also increases the risk of health problems． The result of the research is also helpful for your studies．Please remember：try to use more high-power body language in your studies，then you will be confident．That is，always believe you can study well，act as if you were doing well，then you will make greater progress in real life．

About one hundred years ago many educated people spoke French when they met people from other countries．Today most people speak English when they meet foreigners．English has become the new international language．There are more people who speak English as a second language than people who speak English as a first language．Why?
There are many reasons why English has become so popular．One of them is that English has become the language of business．Another important reason is that popular American culture，like movies，music，and McDonald’s has quickly spread all over the world．It has brought its language with it．
Is it good that English has spread to all parts of the world so quickly? I don’t know．It’s important to have a language that everyone has in common．Our world has become smaller and closer and we need to communicate with one another．On the other hand，English is a rather hard language to learn and it brings its culture with it．Well，do we really need that?
Scientists have already tried to create an artificial(人造的) language that isn’t too difficult and isn’t from any one group’s culture．It is called Esperanto．But it hasn’t become popular．Maybe the popularity of English won’t last that long，either．Who knows? There are
