Ever since humans have lived on the earth, they have made use of various forms of communication．Generally, this expression of thoughts and feelings has been in the form of oral speech．When there is a language barrier(障碍), communication is completed through sign language in which motions stand for letters, words, and ideas．Tourists and the people unable to hear or speak have had to turn to this form of expression．Many of these symbols of whole words are very lively and exact and can be used internationally; spelling, however, cannot．
Body language sends ideas or thoughts by certain actions, either meaningfully or not．A wink（眨眼）can be a way of showing that the party is only joking．A nod means agreement, while shaking the head indicates disagreement．
Other forms of nonlinguistic language can be found in Braille (a system of raised dots read with the fingertips), signal flags, Morse code, and smoke signals．Road maps and picture signs also guide and warn people．While language is the most common form of communication, other systems and techniques also express human thoughts and feelings．

Sometimes children do not do what their parents tell them to do. When this happens, a parent tries to help the child to do the right thing. When this does not work, the parent usually punishes the child.
There are many things that a parent can do. One thing that people have done is to spank (打屁股) the child. When a parent spanks a child, they will use their hand or a hard object to strike them on their bottom. This is meant to show the child that they have done something wrong.
One parent remembers being spanked when he was a child. His parents used a wooden spoon. When he spanked his own children with his hand, he saw that he put a red mark on his child’s leg. He never did that again.
One problem with spanking is that it teaches the child to hit someone when they do not like what the other person is doing. Another problem with spanking is that the parent is usually angry and can hit the child too hard. Sometimes parents will use spanking for everything and not try other ways to get the child to do the right thing.
Many parents are not sure of what to do instead of spanking. Some people think that their religion tells them that spanking is okay. Some think that the law lets them do it. The courts (法院) say that parents have the right to teach their children how to behave.
Other things should be tried before a parent decides to spank a child. Telling the child exactly what is wanted from them can be one thing. Giving a child more than one choice is another thing that can be tried. Getting down to the child’s level and taking a more child-friendly approach (方法) can help as well.

As far back as he could remember，Larry had longed to go to Hollywood and become a film star. The young man’s hopes for success were broken again and again, however.

Larry found a job parking cars for one of Hollywood’s big restaurants. His pay was basic, but since the guests were kind enough to give him more money, he managed to make a living. One day he recognized an important film director driving into the parking lot（停车场）and getting out of his car. Larry had recently heard that the man was ready to make a new picture.
Larry got into the car and prepared to drive it on into the lot and park it. Then he stopped, jumped out, and ran over to the director. “Excuse me, sir, but I think it is only fair to tell you that it is now or never if you want me in your next picture. A lot of big companies are after me.”

One day a famous speaker gave a speech to a crowd of people. He held up a 36 bill. He asked, “Who would like this $20 bill ? ” Hands were 37 . Then he said, “I am going to give this $20 to one of you, but first let me do this.” He began to crumple（弄皱）the 38 . He then asked the audience, “ 39 still wants it ?” Still the hands went 40 in the air.
“ What 41 I do this? ” He asked, and he 42 it on the ground, and started to step on it. He 43 it up. Now the bill was 44 and crumpled. “ Now who still wants it?” Still the hands went up.
“My friends,” He continued, “You have all 45 a good lesson . No matter 46 I did to the money, you still wanted it because the bill did not lose its 47 . It was still worth $20. Many times in our 48 , we are dropped, crumpled, and stepped on, because we sometimes 49 wrong decisions, or we may 50 with something we do not 51 .When that happens, we feel depressed and think we are 52 . But in fact no matter what has happened or what will happen, you will never lose your value. The worth of our life comes not 53 what we do or whom we know, but in who we are! Don’t forget ‘the worth of a thing does not depend on its outside 54 , but on its inner value.’ This is the 55 of life.
