2010年下半年学位英语考试原题。

We can make mistakes at any age. Some mistakes we make are about money. 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 Paul-why didn’t pick up that he 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. 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 the 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 a 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 to you may save another mistake.

答案CCBDB

花时间考虑对方说话的真正感情也许可以避免再犯错误。

大致意思：
我们在任何年纪都会犯错误.有些错误是与钱有关的.而大多数是与人有关的。“当我真得与海伦分手,杰瑞真得关心吗?”.. “当我获得好工作时,作为朋友，杰瑞真的为我开心吗?或者他是嫉妒我呢?”当我们回首过去,这些疑问令我们不安。但是当我们回首时，已经太迟了。为什么对于我们的朋友---或者我们的敌人我们会弄错呢？有时人们所说的隐藏了他们的真实感情。如果我们不用心听，我们就会错过话语的真实感情。

假设有人说，你是个幸运儿。他是出自真心真意吗？如果他说，“你是个幸运的家伙”，那么是发自内心的。在这些词语里，幸运儿有妒嫉的含义，可能说话的人自己没有意识到。但是 “dog”这个词放在词语里，就把你贬低了。他可能想表达的是他认为你不应得到如此好的运气。

如何来判断对方话语的真正感情呢？方法是要注视着对方，判断他的话与表情是否一致？与语调是否一致？还有体态？眼神？好好琢磨琢磨！花时间考虑对方说话的真正感情也许可以避免再犯错误。
