Question

A person has two ears but only one mouth. That means we should listen, not just speak. The word "listen" has the same letters as the word "silent". Listening silently is a good quality that we should have. Then why is it important to be a good listener?

Listening is really helpful.

When someone is sad or angry, he wants to express his poor feelings. At this moment, we need to listen silently first until he gets calm (冷靜的). Then we may have a good talk with him. Maybe it is a good way to help him out.

Listening is a kind of love.

For example, we may think our parents are always talking too much. But in fact, they do so because they are anxious about our health, study and so on. If we listen patiently, our parents will feel we care about them. A loving silence is often more powerful (有力量的) than words.

Listening is polite behavior.

Sometimes, we just want others to listen to us but forget to listen to others. In fact, that's not polite. In order to show our respect(尊重) for others, we had better listen to them first. Then we can express our ideas.

Listening sounds easy， but it's not. Every head is a world. So we should learn to listen with our ears, eyes and hearts as much as we can, and try to make ourselves good listeners from now on.
