Mr. Knight was the manager (經(jīng)理) of a hotel (旅館) ，One weekend all of the hotels in the city were full because there was a large meeting. On Friday night,three men came into the hotel and asked for rooms. Mr. Knight said there were no rooms ready because of the meeting. The men were unhappy.

  Mr. Knight wanted to help them. He remembered that Room 418,a very small room,was empty. He asked them if they would share (共享) a room. The three men said they would. Mr. Knight said the room would be thirty dollars：ten for each one. Each man gave him the money and then went up to the room.  

  Mr. Knight soon began to feel sorry. "Thirty dollars is a lot to ask as a price for that small room. " he thought. He called his assistant (助手) over and said; "Here is five dollars. Take it to the men in Room 418. I asked too much for their room."

  The assistant took the money. While he was on the way there,he started to think, "How can three men divide (分配) five dollars? I'll give them each only one dollar and keep the two dollars for myself. The men will be happy to get something back. And Mr. Knight will never know."So the assistant returned one dollar to each man.

  Each man had at first paid ten dollars. After the assistant returned them one dollar each,each had actually paid nine. There were three men. The assistant kept $2.

  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,as a friend,really feel good about it? Or did he envy my luck?" "And was Paul friendly just because I had a car?" When we look back,doubts like these can make us feel bad.

  But when we look back,it is too late.

  Why do we go wrong about our friends,or our enemies? Sometimes what people say hides their real meanings. And if we do not really listen,we miss the feeling behind the words. Suppose someone tells you, "You're a lucky dog!"(你真幸運！) Is he really on your side? If he says, " You're a lucky guy (人，家伙) ！"，that is being friendly. But "a lucky dog?" there is a bit of envy in those words. What he may be saying is that he does not think you deserve your luck.

  "Just think of all the things you have to be thankful for" is another phrase that says one thing and means another. It could mean that the speaker is trying to get you to see your problem. But this phrase contains the thought that your problem is not at all important.

  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? Is what he says shown by the tone of voice? 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 your another mistake.

(   ) 11. When the writer recalls (回想) some of the things that happened between him and his friends,he         .

   A. feels happy,thinking how nice his friends were to him

   B. feels he might not have understood his friends' true feelings

   C. think it a mistake to have broken up with his girl friend

   D. is sorry that his friends let him down

(   ) 12. When the writer talks about someone saying, "You're a lucky dog!"， he is saying that         .

   A. the speaker is just friendly ,

   B. this sentence suggests the same as "You're a lucky guy"

   C. the word "dog" should not be used to apply to people

   D. sometimes the words show that the speaker is a bit envious

(   ) 13. This passage tries to tell you how to         .

   A. avoid (避免) mistakes about money and friends

   B. get an idea of friendly people

   C. avoid mistakes in understanding what people tell you

   D. keep people friendly without trusting them

(   ) 14. The writer suggests that        be trusted.

   A. everybody   B. nobody

   C. all the people   D. not all the people

(   ) 15. Which of the following is RIGHT?

   A. The person who says " You are a lucky dog" is on your side.

   B. In order to understand what others really mean,you'd better look in their eyes.

   C. We won't make any mistakes when we are older.

   D. We have no way to tell the real meaning behind anyone's words.
