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?" When we look back, doubts like these can make us feel bad. But when we do look back, it’s already 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 says to you, "You are a lucky dog." That’s being friendly. But there is 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 a 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 (姿势)? 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.
This passage is mainly about______.
选项
A、why we misunderstand what people say
B、how to behave when we listen to others
C、why we sometimes go wrong with our friends or enemies
D、how to avoid mistakes when we communicate with people
答案
D
解析
本题为主旨题。要求找出文章的主要内容。从全文来看,作者主要讲在与人交流时,人们的话语往往有弦外之音。只有认真倾听与思考才能避免犯错。因此正确答案为选项D,意思是“当我们与人交流时,如何避免出错”。选项A的内容并未在文中展开讨论,虽然作者也提到误解话语常常是因为我们没有思考与观察,但作者强调的是话语的隐含意义以及避免误会的方法,而不是人们误解话语的原因;选项B只是作者在最后提出的建议,而不是主要内容;选项C只是第二段的内容,而不是全文主旨。
