The power of words
Good morning everyone, I’m glad to stand here to show you our presentation on behalf our group. Today we’d like to talk about the power of words.
We people use words everyday and everywhere.We can see various words in our daily life, not only on itself,but also its carrier,such as the opinion we convey, the speech we take,the newspaper, the television, the video and so on. We employ it as spontaneous as we breath the air, but have we really recognized the wondrous power of the words we use? Have we made use of it correctly? Next, let’s see a short video, in which we can find the magical power that words can bring us.
As is vividly revealed in the video:Change your word, change your world. The old man’s status get better when the words are altered from “I’m blind, please help” into “It’s a beautiful day but I can’t see it”. Because of the later more appealing sentence,people who passed by all expressed their sympathy, so that the elderly can take enough money to have a good meal, or maybe he doesn’t have to spend the night in the streets. His one-day world got changed.
Besides such impressive examples, we can also observe the power of words in many other aspects.
As we know, written words are filled with potential. They are
like knowledge batteries, holding their charge until they are slotted into place. Written words unleash their power when they are plugged into the mind of the reader. Word choice and sentence structure determine your effectiveness in conveying meaning to your readers.
Not only in the shape of writing, the power of words can be seen in many places. Why coca cola gain success? No doubt it’s owing to its excellent advertising language to a great extent. Why Obama can be the first black president? Apart from his outstanding statesmanship,his wonderful speech competence bring him a large amount of extra points. Those great things can’t achieve their goals without the help of words.
wordsThe use of words can actually make our world more efficient. While besides its practical function, well chosen words still have another essential ability——motivate, offer hope, create vision, impact thinking and alter results.
The greetings sent by family can clear away our mind of worries, with brilliant sunshine streaming into our heart; the encouragement from the friend can move out our fear deep inside, drive you to go to forth boldly.
Not only in our daily life, dating back to human beings’history, words had showed us their extraordinary power.
As is known to all,Lu Xun is one of the major Chinese writers of the 20th century. Considered by many people to be the founder of modern Chinese literature. He used his pen, writing plenty of short stories in baihua, like “Ah Q”, “A madman’s diary” ,“Kongyiji”and “medicine”. His works stood out like a lighthouse, providing a guiding light for perplexed Chinese youths who were passionate about China’s future.
However, poorly chosen words sometimes can act as a poisonous substance, it can kill enthusiasm, impact self-esteem, lower expectations and hold people back. Furthermore, improperly used words can even endanger a whole life or our common world.
As the network media and social platform develop, on the one hand, truth can be opened to the public as soon as possible, while on the other hand, free press beyond the upper bound can take unexpected results, leading to incident escalation. The most typical aspect of words’negative power is the phenomenon of social morally blackmail.
Recently, an issue of morally blackmail has attracted our attention. Fan Weiqi, a singer from Taiwan,
apologized and deleted an online post showing her baby twins' crawling that she sent on Thursday, trying to end a verbal assault by some netizens , who said it was inappropriate to show scenes from her personal life on a
day that marking victory in the Chinese People's War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression.
There are some of her sweet family photos,and the first picture is the one which are criticized by most citicens.
The debate-centered on the question of whether celebrities are indifferent to important national events-went on during the weekend.Criticism flooded in minutes after Fan sent it. Some netizens questioned why she was flaunting family life while turning a deaf ear to the nationwide excitement over the victory parade.
And we chose one typical of it.Let’s see
A storm of criticism are still going on despite Fan can certainly get deeply hurt after such criticism of public opinion. However, when we calm down and think over, is this what Christine Fan deserved? Do we rest of people have the right to blame for her showing baby on a memorable day? Can we just
use our words to convict others at random？Revolutionary martyrs fight for all compatriots’ survival and freedom, but now, irrational people make his words a weapon to harm our countryman’s liberty of expression. Not watching parade dose not mean that a person don’t love his country. Christine Fan’s issue of showing babies don’t mean that we have the legal rights to carrying out individual attack on language. The power of words are born with
communication but not criticism.
Besides words’incorrectly using in pubic, it’s significant to take care of our chosen words in getting along with others.
As the old Chinese saying goes, a kind word is remembered for a long time, but an abusive language hurts the feelings at once. For one thing, the vicious words bring evil, by which, unfriendly mind convey from one person to another, and that of course, make people low-spirited and sad, especially when someone you are well acquainted with or love say something really hurt can even drive you mad. For another, negative words convey an atmosphere that things are going to be terrible, or there is nothing you can do for things get better, it’s like an infectious disease, where there is it, there is something bad to happen. Things get worse and the relationship between people get worse.
After analyzing the positive and negative power of words, we should clearly recognized its importance. There is power of life or death in the tongue. An encouraging word can lift those who are down up and help them make it through the day. While a destructive word to those are down can be what it takes to kill them.
So use your words considerately and carefully, let it be the link to connect yourself and the world instead the barrier that keep you away from others. Let it be the light that light up the life of you and the others instead of the knife that hurt or even kill others.
All in a word, change your word, change your world.
