• 2．Sometimes you'll hear people say that you can't love others until you love yourself．Sometimes you'll hear people say that you can't expect someone else to love you until you love yourself．Either way，you've got to love yourself first and this can be tricky．Sure we all know that we're the apple of our parents' eyes，and that our Grandmas think we're great talents and our Uncle Roberts think that we will go to the Olympics．But sometimes it's a lot harder to think such nice thoughts about ourselves．If you find that believing in yourself is a challenge，it is time you build a positive self image and learn to love yourself．
     Self image is your own mind's picture of yourself．This image includes the way you look，the way you act，the way you talk and the way you think．Interestingly，our self image are often quite different from the images others hold about us．Unfortunately，most of these images are more negative than they should be．Thus changing the way you think about yourself is the key to changing your self image and your whole world．
     The best way to defeat a passive self image is to step back and decide to stress your successes．That is，make a list if you need to，but write down all of the great things you do every day．Don't allow doubts to occur in it．
     It very well might be that you are experiencing a negative self image because you can't move past one flaw or weakness that you see about yourself．Well，roll up your sleeves and make a change of it as your primary task．If you think you're silly because you aren't good at math，find a tutor．If you think you're weak because you can't run a mile，get to the track and practice．If you think you're dull because you don't wear the latest trends，buy a few new clothes．But remember，just because you think it doesn't mean it's true．
     The best way to get rid of a negative self image is to realize that your image is far from objective，and to actively convince yourself of your positive qualities．Changing the way you think and working on those you need to improve will go a long way towards promoting a positive self image．When you can pat（拍）yourself on the back，you'll know you're well on your way．Good luck!
  
  （1）You need to build a positive self image when you

  ．
  A．dare to challenge yourself

     Developed for the government by the Netherlands Organization for Applied Scientific Research （TNO），the intelligent bicycle runs on electricity．A commercialavailable bicycle is expected to be on the market in the next two years and should sell for between 1，700 to 3，200 euros per bicycle．
     The devices on the bike are linked through an onboard computer with a vibrating （震動的） warning system fitted in the bicycle's saddle and handlebars to warn cyclists of the coming danger．

     "Accidents often happen when cyclists look behind them or get a fright when they are passed at high speed，"said Maurice Kwakkernaat，one of TNO's research scientists involved in the project．"The onboard system technology has already been at work in the car industry，"he said．
     "More and more elderly people are using a bicycle，not only for short distances，but also for longer distances，"Dutch Environment and Infrastructure Minister Melanie Schultz van Haegen told AFP．"This type of bicycle is truly needed in the Netherlands because it will help us bring down the number of elderly people who are injured every year and allow them to continue to enjoy cycling，"she said．

     Last year，184 cyclists died in the country，of which 124，or 67%，were older than 65，according to the Central Statistics Office．The year before，200 cyclists died，the majority of victims also being elderly．
