Those sounds, whether spoken, or written in letters, we call words.The power of words, then, lies in their association-the thing they bring up before our minds.

26、n words recall to us the glad and the sad events of our past; and the more we read and learn, the more the number of words that mean something to us increase.Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which appeal powerfully to our minds and emo
27、tions. This charming and telling use of words is what we call literary style. Above all, the real poet is a master of words.

He was in rags,but he had an air of dignity (尊严) about him. I gave him a smile and continued cleaning my car. He sat
31、there quietly as I worked. The expected asking for money never came. As the silence between us widened,it seemed that a voice inside me said,“Ask him if he needs any help. ”“Do you need any help?” I asked. He answered in three simple but meaningful words that I shall never forget. We often look for
32、wisdom in great men and women,and we expect it from those of higher learning and achievements. I expected nothing but an outstretched (伸出的) dirty hand from him,but he said three words that shook me. “Dont we all?” he said. I_was_feeling_high,successful_and_important_above_a_bum_in_the_street,until t
