2020年成人英語三級(jí)《閱讀理解》模擬練習(xí)(13)

Mistakes are the things that nobody wants, but we still make mistakes at any age. Some mistakes we make are about money. Some are about work or jobs. But most mistakes are about people."Did Jerry really care when I broke up with Helen? When I got that great job, did Jim really feel good about it as a friend? Or did he envy my luck? And why didn't Andy pick up that I was friendly just because 1 had a car?" When we look back, doubts like these can make us feel bad. But when we look back, it's too late.

why do we go wrong about our friends or our enemies? Sometimes what people say hides their real meaning. We need to listen and think for some time. And if we don't really listen we miss the feeling behind the words. Suppose someone tells you, "You're a lucky dog" that's being friendly. But "lucky dog"? There's a bit of envy in those words. Maybe he doesn't see it himself. But bringing in the "dog" bit puts you down a little, what he may be saying is that he doesn't think you deserve your luck.

"Just think of all the things you have to be thankful for" is another noise that says one thing and means another. It could mean that the speaker is trying to get you to see your problem as part of your life as a whole. But is he? Wrapped up in this phrase is the thought that your problem isn't important. It's telling you to think of all the starving people in the world when you haven't got a date for Saturday night.

How can you'tell the real meaning behind someone's words? One way is to take a good look at the person talking. Do his words fit the way he looks? Does what he says agree with the tone of voice? His posture? The look in his eyes? Stop and think. The minute you spend thinking about the real meaning of what people say to you may save another mistake.

【題型】細(xì)節(jié)題

【解析】題干意為“在作者看來，我們常常誤解朋友的原因是什么?”從文章第二段第二句話“Sometimes what people say hides their real mean-ing.”可知，有時(shí)人們說話時(shí)會(huì)隱藏起他們的真正意思，因此正確答案為C。

3.【答案】B

【解析】題干意為“當(dāng)我們聽一個(gè)人說話時(shí)，最重要的事情是什么?”文章最后一段整段話都在談這個(gè)問題，根據(jù)原文，作者建議我們要注意說話者的神態(tài)姿勢(shì)，聽他的語音語調(diào)，看他的眼睛，可以看出D最貼切，因此正確答案為D。
