Here's a surprising truth—one of the most powerful weapons to enhance your life is your own tongue!
__1__ Concentrate on the qualities of other people that you can affirm instead of on their faults.This alone should do wonders in relieving stress in your relationships.Doctors know that prolonged anxiety harms you，but encouraging words can remove stress and a peaceful mind leads to improve physical health，too.__2__
Avoid fueling verbal fire.When someone starts to blow up all at you，be careful about your response.Why burn your relationship house down with your own mouth？Try spraying water on an argument with calm words instead of using a flamethrower.How many marriages have been destroyed when in a fit of anger people spew out hurtful accusations to one another that are never forgotten！__3__ “A soft answer turns away wrath(狂怒)，but a harsh word stirs up anger.”
Stop complaining.We all know people who complain all the time，especially about the fault of others.__4__ Nothing is ever going well for them，and probably nothing ever will—as long as they keep complaining and putting their energy on what they really don't want.
Do think before you speak.__5__ It is useless regretting.It doesn't matter how unintentional they may be，words can sometimes cut a lot deeper than a sword.Very often you'll hear people say，“I didn't mean to hurt your feelings.”Well，if you didn't want to hurt feelings why couldn't you be thoughtful before you let the unpleasant words escape your loose lips?
A．You should practice waiting a while before answering someone when you are angry.
B．Practice speaking positive words instead of negative ones.
C．We store in our minds in a kind of mental art gallery what others have said to us.
D．Once the words leave your mouth，it is impossible to take them back. E．The longer you think，the better you'll speak. F．The more they do so，the more they are disliked. G．Think twice before speaking.

文的“encouraging words can remove stress”可知，应选B“练习说一些积极的话语而不是消极的话语”。
2．C 由空前一句中的“prolonged anxiety harms you, but encouraging words can remove stress”可知，我们会把别人对我们说的话储存在脑海里，如果这些话是消极的，则会伤害我们；相反若是鼓励性的话语，就会帮我们消除压力，故选C。
3．A 根据空前一句中的“when in a fit of anger people spew out hurtful accusations to one another that are never forgotten”可知，人们一气之下就会说出让自己后悔的话，所以要练习在气头上控制自己的情绪，故选A“当你生气时，你应该练习在回答问题之前先等一会儿”。
4．F 由空前一句“We all know people who complain all the time...of others”和空后的“Nothing is ever going well for them”可知，那些喜欢抱怨的人抱怨得越多，他们就越不招人喜欢，F选项中的they指的就是那些爱抱怨的人。
5．D 最后一段的主题是“在说话之前要三思”。根据空前的“Do think before you speak”和空后一句“It is useless regretting(后悔是没有用的)”可知，选D项。
